Watching sunsets at an industrial scale

Rikab Gambhir, in a guest post on Terence Tao’s blog:

Personally, I look forward to the day when ChatGPT can enjoy a sunset or a nice meal on my behalf and free up my time, in the same way I save time on scenic hikes using Uber. And now that AI has solved all our problems, we can devote ourselves to more important work: going into quantitative finance, vibecoding sports-betting apps, consuming AI-generated TikTok shorts, and arguing with political bots on Twitter.

Some of the things being automated at an industrial pace were already meaningful to the people doing them.
