Of course you don't. There will likely be "certified" human-made art and... the other kind. Buyers can choose. That said, I prefer not to live in a fascist world, where your kids have no rights. The Luddites smashed the printing presses because of automation, and the buggy whip folks did what they could to stop automobiles, but... those professions were essentially lost. The world will be a very very different place in 30 years, with AI influenced Crispr leading the way in the new "designer" humans. Living to 150, with 150 IQ, disease resistant, etc, etc. All that is coming, and very soon. The pace of change will cause massive upheaval long before AI extinction events... Again, thanks for your comment. Lets leave it at this.

Just because something is intelligent doesn't mean that it is good for us. We are more intelligent than chimpanzees and dolphins(and we like them!), but we kill thousands of dolphins every year via fishing and have driven chimpanzees to extinction in areas via habitat destruction.

AI won't be magic. They will have adversial issues with each other like we do, and disempowered humans will do poorly. See openAI itself:

Humanity must survive and my children must live. So if your answer is "well, humanity must die off and be lost and be replaced," then I doubt very few people would agree.

Have a good day.

Regulations to preserve humanity from extinction = nuclear controls, and is not fascism.

You have no idea what I'm talking about. Who said I was against regulation? We are not even discussing the same things. Have a great day- write what you want, I'm done with this thread.

You have said that before but reveal yourself as an extinctionist.

Be for humanity. AI should enhance us, not replace us.

I love my children and unlike you, do not need to replace my brain with a chatbot.
