I know this isn't what you were talking about, but I found this short on a reason to be polite to AI's interesting. youtube.com/shorts/rVlmb.... Personally, I want to be polite to AI exactly so it spares me when it takes over, but your reasons and hers are probably better.

Huh. I thought running a business empire must be hard. But if Mark Cuban thinks that all jobs are that trivial and require that little judgement, maybe his job is easier than I realized. If that is really true (I doubt it) he should take up a hobby. You know, just to challenge himself a little.
