True enough. Made me think about this anime from a couple seasons ago, “Do It Yourself!”. It’s a typical cute girls doing cute things setup (in this case, making furniture and handmade jewelry), but it has a nice thematic undercurrent in how it portrays a world that’s more automated than ours, there’s casual discussions of AI and Singularity and one character decrying manual labour as obsolete, but the ethos of it all is “actually sometimes working to make stuff is just fun!”.
Because no matter how obsolete hand axes or hand-forged iron spoons, or hand-built CPUs are, it’s still cool to make one yourself.
