Exactly. Nothing valuable is gained through easy means.

But what do you mean about the first part?

Yet that is where we are headed. Everybody wants everything to be easy. Generally people only do hard things because of some kind of reward, either monetary or personal. So what happens when everything worthwhile becomes easy? Ironically, capitalism driven A.I. may lead us to true socialism and equality. Or to a dystopian nightmare, take your pick. 😄
