My idle curiosity addiction is going to be hit hard if AI prices go up. Theory: Smaller predators have higher success rate but get fewer of their calories needed per kill. True of human predator work too. If your work involves a “success rate” that’s in the 10-70% range you’re a predator. If it’s higher it should probably be done by a robot.

"Success rate" for human work sounds like a good proxy for "control over variables that affect outcome" Career progression: being able to achieve outcomes where you have little control over variables

AI prices going up may impact those with curiosity addiction. Small predators have high success rate but less calories per kill. Humans in 10-70% success range are predators, higher should be done by robots

Wolves hardly find success in hunting? That’s kind of weird

Interesting theory! But i still wonder if AI could eventually handle most high-success rate tasks, leaving humans to focus more on creative or strategic 'predator' work.
