I don't know, when every kid has had 3 custom made games offered for their birthday, won't they just get bored? Obviously through our lenses this seems awesome because that's something we would have dreamed of, but we would have dreamed of it because it seemed impossible.

Then you take them outside and go play some sports.

You can teach them woodworking. Teach them how to ride a dirtbike. Teach them to make short films with their friends.

This is just a new option you know have the opportunity to provide. Every other hobby doesn't just disappear. That's straight decel mindset.

I guess we will see, it's hard to predict how all this will change society.

There's zero need to predict anything. As long as you provide value, and get better at providing value in the context of your environment, what's there to worry about?

Value is based on offer and demand, this may have less value in the future. What's there to worry about? Quite a lot I'd say, but that's not really the subject. I was just wondering if this would be as cool 10 years from now as it is now. I don't have answers, only questions.

There is more to life than "providing value", nor does "providing value" make you immune from externalities.

Kid gets bored of gaming and AI? Tragedy! ;)
