A short conversational transcript excerpt exploring how AI should be used to augment human abilities by removing repetitive, annoying tasks while preserving the human element. The speakers use a historical analogy (the cotton gin) to situate AI among past technologies that changed labor and efficiency.

It's never going to slow down, but the humanity element still there. So it's kind of. It's both.
I think the best use of AI is to help humans do human things better and take away the repetitive, annoying, stupid things. And also, from an evolutionary point of view, back to the cotton gin. Okay, now, in the oldie, oldie, oldie times, when you'd manually pick cotton and then it'd be ginned or threaded by hand, et cetera, it wasn't efficient. And you know what? Some people really like doing repetitive work.
