I never thought AI would be the fork in the road to Idiocracy. Can you believe that the people whose evidence and testimony in court means so much, value The Great Hallucinator over hand work? They give a few nice sounding options for using AI ("checking child porn"), but it of course won't end there. They already started. People are so fucking lazy.

It's funny to me how shocked people seem to be at the realization of just how fucking lazy people are. Sure, there are definitely differences in actual improvement through technology compared to sheer laziness. Movies tropes like Idicocray or even animated like Wall-E weren't far off either. It's just so much easier to be lazy. The number of people that do not go down these sci-fi trope timelines will be pretty small to the point of just being the weird odd balls that everyone else would just shut up already.

What's kept us going in the past then? Was it really just poverty?

We are apex predators. We are meant to be lazy. Ever see a lion fill out a TPS report? Of course not, they lay around, eat, make babies, and sleep.

Couple it with a society in which nothing really matters no one really cares? Well that’s what we have now.
