Developer pixlpa offers a reassuring take on AI-era anxieties about personal uniqueness: AI doesn't change how unique and niche your personal interests are, nor does it increase or decrease how many people you'll meet who are tickled by the same stimuli. It also doesn't diminish the meaning of the effort behind being "a unique mutant creature worthy of curiosity and love." A philosophical pushback on the idea that AI erodes individuality.
