I mean I certainly agreed with the sentiment, but this is largely describing dishwashers, washing machines, and dryers, which were invented some time ago.

Part of the reason these take time is that a lot of folks are resource conscious (as am I). So we want the dishwasher to be efficiently loaded, the clothes to be dried on a clothesline if possible, the white/colors to be separated (increasea the longevity of the clothes), etc. Sacrificing all of these things makes these chores really very quii, if you can afford to have them all in your home.

And in fact, the cost of these things is relatively low

in my high COL area, it's not that people can't afford these things, it's that they can't afford a place big enough to accommodate them. Which is its own issue altogether...

Ironically, laundry and dishes are two of the best examples of tedious work that machines are already largely doing for us. Laundry in particular probably did more to free up her time for “art and writing” than almost anything else. AI will make both even better.

The complaint here is not that she will not have time for art and writing. Certainly it is not that she will have to spend MORE time doing laundry and dishes. The complaint is that fewer people will be willing to pay for her art and writing.

That is a very different complaint.

It is well written and does its job of misleading well. She may be quite a good author.

Woaahh, we're half way there.

Whoa oh, living on a prayer.

Arc of a Scythe series, I want that to be reality

Overview of the world in the series (not necessarily the plot itself, no real spoilers):

Sentient AI is born and assumes leadership of Earth. It's existance causes the toppling of governments around the world, after the people realize the AI could do a way better job than the humans at running the world. Pretty much the only thing not left to the Thunderhead (the AI) is the death of humans. Humans have achieved immortality, and thus something needs to cull the population. Thus the scythedom is born, consisting of people chosen to pretty much legally murder people. The world is a utopia, everything is damb near perfect, everybody has what they need, there's no crime whatsoever, global warming is solved, there's no corruption or war, and people live long lives. The only issues, explored within the books, are the Scythedom left in control of the humans, and although to a much lesser extent, the lack of motivation of the human species. After conquering death, the people of this world don't really understand the art of the mortal age, with strong emotions based around love, death, and other such topics. You have a very long time to live, they don't really feel a need to acomplish everything in their short lives as mortal mankind did. There was also kind of a genocide of those born in the mortal age but uh... we don't talk about that... (genuinely wasn't talked about much in the books).

Plagiarism discussions (or what is known as inspiration) aside this is saying: I don't want other artists to make art, I want other artists to do my laundry and dishes so that I can make art! Well good luck with that, it won't happen. If people can get AI to make art, people will get AI to make art, and people enjoy it so why shouldn't they. This is not going to disappear any time soon, nor should it. You just feel that you're being replaced in the workforce, and you are. Tough luck, find another way to contribute and keep your creativity going as a hobby like the rest of us.

Nobody stops her from doing art and writing.

Too bad tech businesses don’t give a fig about what you want.

This is the best take on the matter I've ever seen.

haha as If Ai was ever going to stop at laborious tasks.

it was beating chess champions long before writing and art came into the picture....

Yet again artists have the most braindead possible take on AI.

Like I seriously dont understand how even "not a computer person" people dont understand that making a plug in for photoshop or an app that turn you into an anime character is completely fucking different to building a robot that does your chores for you AND that we already have robots that do your fucking dishes and laundry for you.
