I'm with you but I see a bigger problem. I'm not sure if you noticed but there are threads of low desire within our society. Young people, in particular young men, increasingly seem to be checking out of dating and higher education, both examples being paths towards enriching oneself. As these people age, lose mental plasticity, and become entrenched in their ways, how likely are we to be able to convince them to begin valuing those things again?
I'm less concerned about the impact of AI specifically and more about concerned about people simply losing the will for one another or anything at all. None of this stuff in the real world will matter too much if people are getting their basic needs and desires met in a virtual one.
