Was that the point?

You were postulating that we already lived in a post scarcity society.

Now the goalposts have moved to require another breakthrough in AI that will have them solving the energy crisis across a period of decades or more.

If you can ask it to design these things tomorrow then why don't you?

10 years from now could be well too late to begin with any of this. 40 years is hard to even imagine with the current rate of climate change.

I described what I meant by post scarcity here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35351936

In order to be able to engage I’d have to ask you what do you mean by energy crisis?

The next 40 years, if they are of unimpeded climate change, sound shitty indeed.
