  Believe or not people pay for others to do this for themselves.

    I think OPs question still applies. > What person that was even mildly satisfied with living their life would want this?

      And the person you are replying to answered it. Many, many people outsource things like meal prep.

        Many, many people have crappy relationships with their daughters. Put yourself in the pov of the daughter - “daddy thinks this isn’t worth his time but the ai says i’ll like it and i do” and the dad that wakes his kid up early to give them a special breakfast he spent time and energy on perfecting for the impossible child diet. You think the former is outsourcable and preferable to the latter? I could make terrible judgments on you I won’t post because they’re cheap, or maybe you’re childless and young and have a cynical view of the world, but holy crap, in the context of this broader convo, and site, is a real “wtf” moment I can’t really do anything but digest in real time.

        > Many, many people have crappy relationships with their daughters. Outsourcing meals includes eating out or buying for take out. According to your standards, pretty much every dad sucks. > Put yourself in the pov of the daughter - “daddy thinks this isn’t worth his time but the ai says i’ll like it and i do” and the dad that wakes his kid up early to give them a special breakfast he spent time and energy on perfecting for the impossible child diet. I've yet to come across a dad who does this every single morning for his daughter. > You think the former is outsourcable and preferable to the latter? As I said in another comment, it's not an either-or.

      You can plan and prepare my meals for me if you want to :)

        Should have said: It is sad that you outsource something that should mean something to you. Something thoughtful is the whole premise :)

    paying other people to optimize their life so they don’t have to bother themselves with cooking for their children, yes, I fully believe that, and I believe that’s why this current world is so fucked, so we are not in disagreement at all, in a very odd way.
