In the end, the brains of all subsequent generations will be mush - there will be no incentive to learn or achieve anything. AI will do everything for everybody. Humans will become slaves to AI. Totalitarian regimes will prevail. There will be no reason to live - no reason to wake up in the morning.
By then, I don’t care because I’ll be dead. Until then, I’m happily implementing all this stuff because I love doing it and it’s fun 
It’s already mush. Just the illusion a culture of performance, ego, and algorithmic opacity turning into theater.
The world is a stage. Chose your role; good luck opting out.
That’s because the takeoff hasn’t started. It feels like nothing because it is nothing. Forget taking over programming jobs, or manifesting as super intelligent robots; it still can’t count the number of soda cans in a picture correctly.
I’m a developer. I see AI for what it is and what it can be, not for empty promises designed to fleece investors and management. If AI could do the things they say it can already do, OpenAI would be using GPT to generate blockbuster movies, fulfill programming contracts, and even replace their own management (lol fat chance). But for some reason OpenAI is bleeding money by the billions rather than making a profit by using the best versions of their own products with maximum first to market advantage.
The only way you can bleed billions and stay in business is with the help of the government, and it isn’t a charity service. There’s no money in helping you write nice poems. The only thing seems to be inevitable with AI is enhanced state surveillance capabilities. Why would anyone be excited for that?
Only those involved in the military-industrial complex would be excited for AI’s surveillance capabilities.
