what enriches lives:

  1. solving world hunger
  2. doing the taxes and other boring stuff
  3. translation
  4. replacing corrupt governments
  5. cheaper living

what we use AI for instead:

  1. making society, artists, already poor people poorer
  2. making life more complicated thanks to increased joblessness
  3. causing more polarisation and conflict
  4. helping corrupt governments
  5. more expensive living

why invent an AI that eats ice cream for you when instead, it should do the dishes and pass the butter?
