'Creative destruction' is a core concept in economics, identified by Joseph Schumpeter in 1942. It posits that change is inescapable, with old ways of doing things constantly being superseded by new ones. I came across this concept while reading the World Economic Forum's discussion on the impact of AI on the job market.

I've also been contemplating the destruction of ancient forests and the irreplaceable loss of healthy, diverse habitats, even when new trees are planted. While the term 'creative destruction' has a compelling ring to it, it is arguably an oxymoron, especially considering it was coined before the advent of atomic bombs and before we could fully measure the impact of mass consumption on our environment.

I wonder how we will manage our consumption to meet the increased labor efficiency that AI developments will bring about.
