“This isn’t going to stop,” Allen told the New York Times. “Art is dead, dude. It’s over. A.I. won. Humans lost.”

I recommend reading “The Better Angels of Our Nature” by Steven Pinker. People love to complain about how much worse quality of life has gotten for people, but when actually pressed for specific ways it has gotten worse, they are almost always arguing from a complete ignorance of history. Lifespan is much longer, healthspan is much longer, rapes are way down, murders are way down, torture is way down, dying in childbirth is way down, incest is way fown, pedophilia is way down, starvation is way down, dying from wild animals is way down, wars are way down. Problems now for lots of the world are things like people bickering over who gets to be next to who when they pee and who called a “he” a “she”.
This idea that the world is way worse than it used to be is absurd and just shines a massive light on how popular it has gotten to selfish brats completely oblivious of where we came from.
I knowof Steven Pinker and don’t agree with his conclusions. I even got a video debunking him you’re probably not gonna watch either
You’ve ignored my point about climate change. I’m quite sure that concerning history, I got a bit more nuanced takes than you do.
Medical advances have been made, yes. Inpart due to, technological advancements. These are fundamentally good and not what I’m arguing against.
How is that a result of technological advances and not social movements fighting for a brighter future?
I doubt that, if you look at it globally. Israel is currently performing a genocide. I consider that murder.
Again, healthcare advances.
Not touching those points.
Ecodiversity is way down and global pandemics are way up.
Are you kidding me? Did you live under a rock for the last 50 years?
No, problems now for “lots of the world” is climate change, job insecurity, housing crisis, dangers of a global war escalation, …
Not what I said.
Says the person who choses to ignore how much progress has been done through sometimes violent, social movements.
