I love your writing style - so easy to read and relate to! I also want to applaud you for taking a brave step towards purpose and reflection. It was so interesting to watch that video you linked -- I think it "hits" because of the brutal idea that we were made (molded?) to be workers for XYZ corporation. Combined with the existential crisis challenging the continual existence of these corporations / industries via AI, it incites the question of challenging "why we were made" to better align with what we know to be true -- something greater. I think you're super brave for taking on this challenge which will undoubtedly require an uncomfortable void ... those periods of discomfort often lead to deeper meaning that we would never otherwise find!
Thanks for leaving such a thoughtful response Rose! I agree with your thoughts. Even on a pragmatic level, AI and its existential challenges to our current industries as they exist make me rethink how I can be “useful” to our community. So uncomforted by that void… but I know it’s necessary!
