In a widely shared essay, ryolu pushes back on AI-era efficiency worship: the danger isn't that AI makes us lazy but endlessly busy — infinite production before intention, infinite execution before taste. AI could be a new canvas for personal, imaginative creation, yet much of it is becoming slop factories. The real frontier, they argue, is discernment: knowing what not to make and when to stop. Tools should give us more life, not turn life into a tool.
