Dude, yes, that's the first thing that came to my mind when I saw the picture!
This, btw, is one of the best uses of generative AI I've seen to date. 😆 Well played.
I honestly wasn't trying, I told it to stitch up two pictures. I expected a side by side, not a merger. But it looked really fucking cool

The world when it's my time to be an adult
Right back at ya
I think both sides are correct. AI will be still around a decade and centuries from now, and AI poses great risks. The real question is, "Who controls it?"
Hopefully the students do not try to destroy the loom, but instead try to make sure that they are so common and easy to use, that corporations do not have genuine control over the usage of AI. Every minority should have a digital lawyer that has 95% of the ability of Disney's, to protect people from Kavenaugh Stops. Every poor person should be able to manage their finances just as well as the most blueblooded billionaire. Every household should own a home server and a robot, leasing their usage to corporations. Those corporations shouldn't own the AI nor robots.
What I am saying, is that we should structure society to ensure that the worst people are not our masters forevermore. Their goal is to control the means of production, and to remove our lives from the process. Both figuratively AND literally.

the only consequence of a world without ai is a smooth running industrial powerhouse that increases the value of its people and marketshares. continued use of ai reduces marketshare as well as production output while also shrinking the customer base
