I relate with this. The hope that AGI arrives and the singularity occurs, easily represents 70% of the interest in living my life.

Traveling, studying, exercising... None of that motivates me, but witnessing the advances in AI and being able to test it myself... does motivate me. Idk, It's like life is... disappointing and boring, and I'm waiting for an abrupt change that will give me a reason to have interest in being here.

It’s interesting how many of us find life to be boring at times, even with so much going on!

Most of us have never been alive. Wake up, work, eat,sleep, repeat.

Technology today ,in 2023 is just as natural as the Amazon rainforest , human civilization built up to this point and most people- (hunter gatherers , farmers for most of our timeline ) these days are over stressed and overloaded with modern busy lives . Overloaded with information ect. Things this century has been starting to speed up exponentially and our evolution isn't keeping up . All the toxicity of modern civilization is like the growing pains of a era of abundance ect. Post AGI I can only hope .
