I see it as a step forward.

The physical world is what we are fully integrated into as embodied beings along dimensions we do not yet and may never understand. It is the only space that has an inherently scarce quality, which seems to be something we need as humans. IMO technology should enable us to deepen our connection in the "real world," not isolate us in piss poor representations built on the belief that we are merely mind-bearing mechanical vessels to be manipulated.

AI is going to drive us back to fully-embodied living, and that's good.
