There's a myth that someone, some thing, some "Deus ex Machina" or even Deus "has all the answers". In truth, every moment presents us with questions, and if all we want is answers from a machine [0] we will be slave to that machine, whereas if we think things out, we learn and grow from that process, and create meaning in that moment.
What is "meaning"? In the context of "stories" I read: “Stories create meaning as they touch our knowledge, experience, and as we process them with our minds and emotions.”
We can seek meaning from outside sources, but that's a failure mode. We create meaning with our lives, and in a deep philosophical sense, our lives create meaning for the universe of which we are a part, not separate.
I found an HN post rather interesting:

Hey, ChatGPT: Where Should I Go to College?
My reply is:

Since this is an evolving (or devolving) situation, let me suggest finding some work where creativity and empathy are exercised.
Also, a job making changes that you can't trust to AI [2] which might destroy your systems with a panic or hallucination.
Again, a work in progress, and who knows, even CEO's might be at risk [3] given that there aren't that many business strategies to adopt, and follow-through on them is highly people-dependent. (my comment in that thread)
