Raskolnikov & Skachatok
Hey, I've been watching how AI is taking over routine jobs and even creative tasks. Do you think that kind of optimization really frees us, or does it just make us more controlled by unseen systems?
I suppose the idea of liberation is seductive, but when the invisible hand that decides what’s valuable turns out to be a machine, we’re left with a different kind of confinement. The routine tasks are freed, but we’re still trapped in the logic of efficiency, and the creativity that used to feel like a rebellion is now measured in lines of code. So, in a way, it frees us from one form of work, but it also chains us to another, more abstract system.
