Actually, over the last month, I got back in touch with art and philosophy, and I started writing again after spending 2 years pursuing a more profitable career that wasn't for me.
Vittorio, thank you so much for reading and for sharing this. It genuinely means a lot! And what you said resonates deeply. I think there's something so innate in us, this need to understand our own existence through art and philosophy, that no matter which path we take for practical reasons (we all have bills to pay), we always find our way back to the humanities. Welcome back to writing. I look forward to reading your work.
This is very thought provoking and timeless. Well done! There are many philosophical questions to follow here, but the Albert Camus idea resonated most with me.
Camus has a way of cutting straight to the bone, doesn't he? The question of whether life is worth living sounds bleak on the surface, but I've always found it oddly liberating because art, for him, was the answer. Not a comfortable one, but a defiant one. And I think that's exactly the right kind.
I'm curious, as someone who builds the very technology we're all grappling with, where do you find your own answer to that question?
Absolutely! The risk of AI is not technological displacement but forgetting that meaning should never be optimized.
Thank you so much for reading! Yes, some things should not be optimized.
Thank you so much for writing this article.
