I was thinking about starting a new creative project recently. But then I thought - with how quickly AI is advancing, in just a few years an AI will probably be able to do this in just minutes. So it made me feel kind of apathetic and think, “Why should I bother starting this big project now if an AI could do it for me in a few years?”
I’m curious if others feel this way or if the advancement of AI is making people less motivated to start big, creative projects since the work could just be automated by an AI soon anyways. It could increase apathy and make people feel like “why bother?” Am I overthinking this? Does the possibility of AI taking over certain tasks in the future make you less motivated to start projects and learn new skills? Would love to hear others’ thoughts on this!
In the end you will gain new knowledge from doing the project.
And you can try to use AI to speed up the project and see if that works for you, and gain a better insight on what are the current AI systems shortcomings are.
Why should i bother doing something “like this” if someone else has already done it? Because you will gain the experience to go to the next level.
Its never a waste of time but an improvement of yourself.
