Imagine if AI actually delivers utopia and you get to code all you want because your every need is taken care of.


Considering we can't even get corporations and the ultra wealthy to pay even _close_ to their fair share of taxes, forgive me if I'm a little skeptical of the idea that a utopia, should it come to pass, will be evenly distributed.


0.01% chance of happening. also i am actively trying to kill my love for coding and move onto 90% agentic at this point since it's doing me more harm than good. i dont think ill get another chance to write code in the future all things considered besides for comp. programming activities


I’d say that 0.01% statistic is pretty optimistic. We’ve got a better chance of a thunderstorm on the moon.


Absolutely naive if you think the capitalists will “deliver utopia”.


I think if the capitalists succeed in aligning it with their values then it will kill them.
