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?
Find a niche in the natural sciences that you enjoy - bugs for example - then spend more time outside learning about it. We all spend way too much time on our phones. The whole world is out there!
