I took a look at it and saw that all it did it badly scrape the exact instructions from Reddit.

Color me severely unimpressed.

Again: we should prioritize and value the human intellect, human effort and work, and human creativity.

And this is why, I think, so many people misunderstand what these "AI" systems actually are and what they can do. The story does manage to ask an important question: what if they get it wrong?

But let's get at the real problem: how can we create meaningful human interaction when there's no human?

Have hobbies that do not generate money or create some kind of value for anyone other than yourself. Enrich your life in ways that matter to you. At the end of the day, these ruthless vulture capitalists don't care about you any more than they care about a sprocket or a gear in a machine.

At some point the actual reason to live for a person must be more than "Make money" or "make someone else rich with your labor." What grinding culture really encourages is the enrichment of others through the exploitation of your body, your labor, your time.

Everything is commercialized. And we have even gotten to the point where we are pressured to commercialize our own private time. We can't rest; we must be productive little worker bees. We must be doing, working, grinding.

And this is actually a pretty trenchant observation about the commercialization of absolutely everything (and its consequences, like the enshittification of the internet).
