Go herd goats. You don't need to wait for AI to destroy your livelihood.
Yeah, but there's nothing like some sweet, sweet justification.
I need that sweet AI-enabled UBI first to do it comfortably
Herding goats doesn't solve the interesting technical problem I'm trying to solve.
Point is: if that problem is solvable without me, that's the win condition for everyone. Then I go herd goats (and have this nifty tool that helps me spec out an optimal goat fence while I'm at it).

The problem is solvable without you. I don't even need to know what the problem actually is, because the odds of you being one of the handful of the people in the world who are so critical that the world notices their passing is so low, I have a better chance of winning a lottery jackpot than of you being some critical piece of some solution.
I completely disagree - I think it’s the other way around.
Solving the problem - no matter what problem it is - is extremely dependent on you and every single human being (or animal for that matter) is a critical piece of their environment and circumstances.
