> Just curious here, how much of this was written by AI?

None of it, I would guess. I'm starting to think HN needs a new guideline, against people calling anything they don't understand 'made by AI'.

> Subtract AI, most people will probably be fine.

Look at the course we're on. Radical improvements are necessary. AI is radical, whether you want to admit it or not. And it isn't getting 'subtracted' any time soon.

> Take away the plow and people will starve and die.

Not when it was first invented.

> AI is a luxury product and should be treated as such.

It is literally free (as in beer) to anyone with internet.

> I would go so far as to say that AI "copilots" and "assistants" should not be allowed to refer to themselves in the first person. Can a plow refer to itself in the first person? [etc for 2 paragraphs]

Some people don't know what a metaphor is. You might want to check the meaning of the word.
