In all seriousness this is a good development. If people are using AI to write Essays, you can imagine a future where the coursework given to you as a series of tasks (...) can be automated. The AI can and if used will undoubtably get better and better at writing. Imagine if your essay was trained on how well you did on asking the AI to write it, even extending into your career. Successful professionals will have their AI-written essays ranked higher than those who failed for future students, or some other regime where university becomes more valuable as a predictor of skills and subject matter comprehension. Everyone wins.

Who needs humans, anyway?

And why not? Construct the deck automatically in a factory, roll out a bot to dig some holes for the posts, attach the deck. Done.

Plumbing? The robot won't care about the stench so can really get in there.

Pave a road? Why not? A robot slowly rolling along dropping asphalt, another rolling slowly behind it to smoothe the asphalt.

If you think hard physical labor is the only thing that can't be replaced by robots I've got news for ya.
