Ai does not make me feel joy or excitement about the future. Especially regarding the things I love (education, literature, art, music, silly nerdy computer hobby stuff, etc). Does anyone have any thoughts that may somewhat help me feel less dread? Do you think that the desire for human driven creativity, the desire to hold a physical book in your hand, or a physical paint brush, or to hang with your friends outside without cellphones will persist despite all the rubbish?

Or more generally, what gives you hope?

    A lot of people feel the exact same way, but are just too burned out at this point to say anything. The AI sycophants just scream the loudest atm, doesn’t mean that they’re holding the popular position.
    So you definitely aren’t alone and will always have plenty of options to hang out with people who aren’t brainwashed by that stupid thing.
