Humans define themselves by work. "What do you do?" is the first question. If AI does your work, who are you? If you don't have job, do you have meaning? This is the existential crisis of the AI age.
If AI does your job...
Your identity disappears
Your purpose evaporates
Your community dissolves
Your meaning vanishes
Transition to different job (AI-resistant or AI-enabled)
Find meaning in new work
Problem: Not everyone can transition
Art, music, writing, making things
Express yourself, create beauty
Problem: Not everyone talented, not everyone interested
Family, community, friendships
Meaning from connection
Problem: Already stressed by technology
Volunteering, helping, service
Contributing to community
Problem: Needs infrastructure, societal support
Continuous growth, understanding, exploration
Meaning from learning itself
Problem: Takes motivation, discipline
Recreation, entertainment, rest
Meaning from enjoyment
Problem: Unsustainable long-term (humans need purpose)
What gives life meaning if not work?
This is philosophical question humans have wrestled with forever
AI makes it urgent
Never had to work (didn't derive identity from jobs)
Yet many still suffered existential meaninglessness
Money doesn't solve meaning crisis
Stop working, suddenly lose identity/purpose
Common: Depression, loss of meaning
Must actively build new meaning
Meaning doesn't come automatically from free time
Humans must construct it intentionally
Minimal planning or infrastructure
Assuming market will solve (it won't)
Heading toward social crisis
AI will displace work. This creates existential crisis: what gives life meaning? Society must answer this question, or face social collapse. Individuals must start building meaning beyond work now. This is the deepest question of the AI age.

On December 23, 2025, the Allen Institute for AI released Molmo 2—and it completely upended the narrative that bigger AI is always better. An 8 billion parameter model just beat a 72 billion parameter predecessor. Here's why that matters, and how it's about to reshape AI in 2026.
