Fuck AI

I like washing my dishes and do the laundry (but not washing clothes by hand, that we left for good). I feel like some manual labor each day leaves a breathing room for my mind when I don’t scroll or consume content or work with my mind exhausted and occupied. It reminds me of how Don Carleone liked his garden work in the book. Just a simple labor with evident results.

I think the point is that folks of a certain age have seen time and again how instead of tech advances "making our lives easier" they are instead used to increase expectations of "productivity". Here, the path we're on doesn't lead to more time to create art (or to choose what "simple labor" you might find fulfilling as a hobby), it leads to expectations to produce more for the 1% with the same amount of time we had before, or excuses about how an overworked department doesn't need to be expanded since there's AI now, or etc etc.
