if ‘AIs are a poor substitute for a human at most jobs’, then even this wouldnt work. disregarding long term effects, AI must be able to do jobs to a degree for this to happen

‘create new original things’ is subjective, but people push it to an extreme. it does not need to be the opposite of ‘ai can produce deepfakes’ to be included. example of new original thing: https://openai.com/index/model-disproves-discrete-geometry-conjecture/
thanks for writing this
yeah this is what I meant by nuance, I just dislike when people have mostly-contradictory viewpoints that overlap in the sole fact that they believe ‘AI=bad’. for example I’ve heard the same people irl both say things that show they believe ‘AIs cannot do very simple tasks’ and ‘AI can be superpersuasive, manipulative’
