Paras Chopra(@paraschopra):We offloaded physical labor to machines long ago, and now we are doing the same for intellectual labor. There’s no reason to expect we will retain cognitive agency. Thinking is effortful, so if it can be outsourced, we will happily do that. Post-work society seems inevitable.
