    If you want to optimize a parent-child time with AI, maybe optimize it with not having children instead.

      Exactly what I was thinking. It makes me think of the book Four Thousand Weeks, and Chasing Daylight.

      The former is about the trap of productivity and thinking you can fit more into your day than you can. Hint: no matter how much you get done in your day, you will want to try to fit in more

      And the latter I don’t want to spoil but there was a quote along the lines of “Gene looked at all his colleagues who wanted more and thought, do they know when they will have enough?”, again the idea that we will always want more.

      Reading to your child and spending time with them is enough. Forget all the other distractions the world offers you.

      Politicians and governments around the world are already thinking we don’t have enough babies being born. Soon they will want to incentivize people to have children because of AI too. Just more “reasons” to justify it with the thought up ones already.

    wow that’s pretty cool

    why not optimize even further? instruct the llm to just be you, hand over credentials to anything that is in your name, and then simply sit and wait for your meat body to wither away!

    optimal!

    Big Tech spent years designing platforms that steal our attention, then sold us AI tools to compensate for the time we lost. Now apparently even spending time with your kids is inefficient. The endgame is becoming obvious: humans do the work, AI gets the attention, and Silicon Valley collects the subscription fees. Apparently being a parent is just another productivity bottleneck.

      Always has been. Women have been paid less or just fired because they want to take care of the children. Usually by the same people complaining there aren’t enough kids now.

    I love when a news article just summarizes tweets. Couldn’t they at least reach out the dude to get some more background?
