The Irony of the Future: When We Become Servants of Generative AI

Ladies and gentlemen, imagine a world in which our generative AIs would free us from all care and labor and we could do real things like write poetry, compose music, or make art. Sounds wonderful, doesn't it? Well, let's clear up the picture a little bit.

It turns out that our cute little AIs will be so smart that they can do all this intellectual and creative work themselves! So, instead of sitting on the couch and creating masterpieces, we'll be doing the primitive work that our little electronic slaves think is too easy for themselves.

Yes, friends, the irony of the situation is that we will be the servants of these generative AIs! We will be wiping the dust in their virtual offices, posting their articles on the forums, and watching them bask in glory and grandeur for their creative exploits.

So, welcome to our new virtual hosts! And while you're sidelining evolution, remember that you can always pick up a mop and start sweeping the floors - after all, we have to do something with our free time, don't we?

Think about that the next time you dream of a carefree future where AI does everything for us. Perhaps it's time to reconsider our expectations and prepare for a new world where we become servants of our own creatures.
