@krypt3ia - No lie. Part of why I want post-scarcity, so we can devote ourselves to meaningful pursuits like art.

I find it morbidly fascinating that our first big inclination for AI was to automate writing and art instead of food production, etc.

We should automate the drudgery to allow ourselves to produce art, not automate art to allow ourselves to continue to drudge.

The reason is simple: those who automate are not artists, but people who _consume_ art. They have no understanding of art, they just see it as a product to buy, and automating the production will lower the prices (even for real art, as the surrogates have this effect).
