I likely align with you on most political and social issues since you seem to be in despair. However, this question is seriously misguided. This is by far the best time to have been a human in all of history.

You say AI is making our creative pursuits feel meaningless?

How many creative pursuits do you think the average person had throughout history when close to 50% of people died before age 5, fewer than 10% of people could read, women and minorities had close to zero rights, the average worker was impoverished and farmed sunup to sundown to barely eat and avoid famine, there was little treatment for diseases (infectious or otherwise), common people could be conscripted for war at a moment’s notice…I could go on.

You think the average person in history spent their time painting and writing? These are luxuries 99% of people who ever lived could have never dreamed of.
