Author here. Seeing comments that this is a doomer article for some reason. I'm an AI optimist. It's humans that scare me. The article is about managing the transition to Valhalla. My toy projects and my job can disappear and I'm fine with it.

I talk more about the gran future here

What are you going to do if your job disappears? Sit in Thiel's whirlpool?
Create shows and movies. I, like you and everyone else, will figure it out. And it'll be better than what we have today just like its better to drink coffee and code vs toil at a farm 20 hours a day.
Yes. There will come a day where an AI can create you a movie you want to see, on the fly, and will be able to watch your body language for when you get bored to pivot to another topic/twist in the movie etc.

Similar for board/video and other kinds of games.
