It made me step back and think about how some of these AI products are named and I honestly prefer when a product isn't named like a person. Just to think of two: you have "Claude" and "Alexa" which gives the impression you are speaking to a person when you very very much are not.

I gotta say I kind of prefer the name "ChatGPT" that OpenAI went with. It doesn't try to pretend it's a human with it's naming and also describes what it is in it's name.

Yeah, I would also prefer to rename a smart house controlling agent to "robo butler 9000" just because its funny. I dont want a human slave. I want to feel like Im in a weirdly funny episode of Futurama

I think Star Trek nailed how I would want to interact with a computer by voice. (maybe someone will figure out how to make AI agents do that, including Majel Barrett's voice)

If anyone is interested in a longer form version of this sort of story I’d highly recommend Ken Liu’s The Perfect Match.

Wait, they are going to return to cubicles in 2030? Sounds awesome ;)

Nah it’s going to be more like those standing seats that some low-cost airlines have been planning for a while. That’s more than enough for you and your headset. The very best workplaces will also provide a small elliptical bike at your feet.

There will be fewer and fewer of us in years to come, but real estate doesn’t grow on trees!

They can make electricity with your pedalling. Like a dystopic hamster wheel powered office. All bodily functions can be monetized

While I generally subscribe to the philosophy of "if you're good at doing something then never do it for free", but my company is welcome to my shit for free.

First they will run it through some sort of analytics to sell the results to biomedical information-tracking companies for aggregate data:

Next - they will take the resulting "output" physical mess and turn dump it into a methane fuel-generating waste-treatment plant.

If that still doesn't make enough $$$, and your measured productivity metrics are not good enough, don't worry - if you also end-up living in one of the "techbro sponsored corporate feudal city-states" you can always help the company by being turned into "biodiesel":

Perfectly realistic except the ending: why would anybody pay humans to generate voiceovers in 2030s, when AI can already do the job?

That's all organic artizan voiceover, not like the unhealthy garbage AI voiceover the lesser cool people use.

Because enough people will pay $200 for a "premium" HDMI cable, that a market for premium HDMI cables exists.

likely boorishly contrived for this style of storytelling

The future is going to have a lot more speaker grilles with screwdriver stab marks in them.

Not enough ads and push to spend, I'm afraid.

Reminds me of the movie "Demolition Man", where everything was assisted by AIs.

I was hoping this was about FM-2030’s morning routine. Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be much information online about/if he did anything particularly unique.

I wonder: if we get superintelligence before 2030, do you think we should revive him ASAP, or wait and do it in 2030?

keiferski · 19m ago

I don’t think he was super interested in AI, more trans humanism and biology related things.

This is classified as satire but it's not much so, we're already halfway there.
