I mean thats easy. Did you miss the part where I said tool?

Rapid prototyping of weekend projects.

The starting point for troubleshooting said weekend projects.

Do you know how much it would cost me to pay a human to fill that role?

    You realize how much you're robbing yourself when you do that, right?

    I can't believe farmers use tractors and cultivators instead of just manually tilling the farm. Don't they know how much they're robbing themselves?

    I can't believe doctors use xrays to look at bones instead of cutting people open. Don't they know how much they're robbing themselves?

    Are you an idiot or are you so deeply entrenched in the whole "AI will always be useless" thing that you can't even see that its a tool that has a purpose which is to reduce toil which is EXACTLY what I've described using it for.

    Why tf do you need to protype and troubleshoot a “weekend project” or hire someone to do that? You protyping your hydrangea trimming or lawn mowing? You troubleshooting your vacuuming? Humans don’t, never have and never will need an AI to do “weekend projects” - doing the planning and thinking is literally what makes you a human, you’re giving up your humanity and reverting to an animal because you don’t want to sit down for a few hours and plan out a vegetable garden?

    I can't believe farmers are so lazy to use tractors and cultivators instead of just manually tilling the farm like a real human.

    I can't believe doctors use xrays to look at bones instead of cutting people open like real humans.

    I'm going to assume you have never done anything technically challenging in your life and explain this to you simply. When people do difficult technical things like programming or robotics projects, its best to be able to plan things out. And having a mockup or prototype of this is very useful. Hence why 3d modelling is so useful. So either you have no idea what you're talking about or you're just an idiot. Which is it?

    And to answer your question I have a black thumb. Can't grow shit. But I did build an automatic watering system for my partners peppers plants. But I suppose that mean she's given up what it means to be human too.
