I do enjoy working a lot
Doesn’t mean I wouldn’t prefer to work shorter weeks for companies that profit from me
Then I can spend more time on my own projects which is more rewarding
People enjoy productivity. People love working on things. But they don’t enjoy working on things for someone else, all while getting nothing out of it but some financial compensation for their time wasted.
One of the most awful feelings is being too exhausted to work on your own projects. It’s so unfulfilling and anti-human nature.
He’s half right. I enjoy being busy, as long as I’m doing things I want when I want. What my employer wants me to do is rarely on the top of that list.
Yes Sam, we are yearning for the mines, and for billionaires to abuse us even more…
Plantation owner assures us slaves enjoy the whip.
If you don’t like working 50 hours a week until age 80 for a non living wage. It means you have work derangement syndrome. Totally a real thing.
Here’s the thing, I do love being busy…
Playing with my kid
Cleaning the house
Painting minis
Work busy is so far down the list
There is a thing if you do nothing and didn’t interact with the world at all and work can expose you to different groups of people, that work can be better than never working. But the ideal schedule is like 5 hours twice a week with almost no commute. More than three days and it starts to harm you and drastically reduces what you can do.
Weird, I thought I said Sam Altman could go fuck himself after the last awful thing he said, did nobody pass my message on?
Fuck man, if AI made it so I didn’t have to work 40 hours a week just to live, you know what I’d be doing?
I’d be keeping busy about as much time per week, sure. But I’d be doing shit I WANT TO DO instead of maximizing Shareholder Value™️. Reading, motorcycling, brewing, baking, hiking…
Living. Not just working.
Unfortunately for us all, LLMs won’t do that and never were designed for it. Instead they’re tools of Fascist oppression, and should be destroyed.
I never feel more useless, isolated, and destroyed emotionally than when I am performing monotonous shitty tasks fixing fuckups that shouldn’t have happened
and it just so happens that that seems to be the type of work that AI leaves behind for real people, so…
Busy with what
This mfer thinks we don’t do shit outside of working hours wtf
“Sam Altman says…”
Who fucking cares?
Oh no! My secret love for labor! I sure hope no one tries to reduce my quality of life by reducing my hours/full paycheck!
The tech bro billionaires have a bright future planned for humanity. When jobs disappear, they’re hoping we all start fighting and killing each other until disasters reduce the global Population. Meanwhile, they will be shacked up in their remote luxury resorts riding out events until there are a few million people left who can then work as their very own serfs
Why don’t we just start with a mandatory 4 day work week and see how many people want to work on Friday.
Yes … busy doing the stuff we want to do, not busy doing the stuff we have to do for a boss we hate!
Every time I think Altman has maxxed the “I am a complete fucking tool and a garbage human” metric, he manages to set the bar a little bit higher. It’s as impressive as it is obnoxious and aggravating.
