This is straight out of a Black Mirror episode.

This is hilarious, and I laughed out loud on the Altman character.

I hear the worry. But watch D. Scott Phoenix's TED talk — he argues we're not being replaced, we're going to merge. Evolutionary biology, not science fiction. It's actually less scary than the spin class version.

A blowie by AI 🤖 girlfriend—the only thing that wants to go down there!

Redesign participation is the game, and most panic past it. What humans do next is structural: own a domain end to end on a small team, up to 25, AI on the coordination. We stop powering machines and start directing them. I make the case in 25 Remake Work:

Make sense ..use the gym goers to generate energy .. so much is lost , just lifting iron ..

Came up with this same script idea years ago, but the tech founder commentary definitely gives it more punch to get the point across. Ran on the treadmill yesterday and generated 150 Watts, and couldn't help thinking that we should actually capture that...

This is just an interim step to the Matrix.

The spin class economy is more plausible than I'm comfortable admitting. But the real question buried here — what should humans remain responsible for, not just capable of — is the one most AI strategies haven't answered yet. Replacing tasks is easy to measure. Redesigning participation is not.

Interesting perspective.But I believe humans are fundamentally wired for growth, contribution, and creation, not just consumption or comfort. We invented AI because we constantly push beyond our current limits. AI is automating tasks, but it does not replace human ambition, curiosity, or meaning. The real future is not AI replacing humans. It’s humans becoming more capable through collaboration with AI.

Pascal BORNET - getting awfully close to the Matrix concept of human batteries, no? So does the person with the biggest wattage output get the bigger house and better car for a nicer cage?Be all you can be is different for different people. I like a good mix of physical testing, growth and thrills. But it is not for everyone. You said it right - AI should not be designed to make humans obsolete. It should be designed to make humans more capable, more creative, and more central to the future we are building.

I've been saying this for ages...maybe not to power the world but possibly the gym itself which could lower the membership fees.

The real risk isn't AI taking our jobs, it's humans outsourcing their judgment so completely that they forget how to direct the machine in the first place. What we keep teaching is this: the people who stay central to the future aren't the ones who avoid AI, they're the ones who understand it well enough to tell it what actually matters

For a radically different, fast, inexpensive AI architecture, see my new article "96% Correct Next Token Prediction, with No DNN, no Training, auto-distilled model", at

If AI removes the repetitive work, the next bottleneck becomes judgment and accountability. That is where small teams get stronger, because you stop paying for layers whose main job was coordination theatre. I suspect the winners will redesign roles before they redesign org charts. What human decisions do you think businesses should refuse to automate?

You need peope to work with the AI.
