Programming is mainly about automation and I mean &quot;automation scenarios&quot; as the general concepts we work on. Improving automation is a path towards &quot;singularity&quot; (in this case that meaning not AI world domination, but nothing to do left for humanity as everything is being done automatically) with a nice feedback loop. Many people here, including me, naturally obsess over the parts that are directly relevant to our jobs and not think too much about the possible effect on other industries. Hope it is clear now :)
