The analogy is apt. AI is just a tool to increase your productivity. Amish do not drive cars because they are built with electricity and machines.

You will need to find your digital Pennsylvania, with like minded people and cottage industry customers to make it in the post AI world without taking advantage of the tools.

Except that's not why Amish don't drive cars.

(not that I'm an expert, but I don't believe there'd be anything in Amish theology specifically against AGI —pace current power requirements?— especially if it were intelligent enough to understand Gelassenheit)
