    Don’t confuse labor with work

    Labor is pretty much the most noble thing you can think of. Doing art, poetry, music, healing people, teaching kids - all of this is labor, and it is very noble.

    As I said in the other reply, labor IS natural, and without it your body will literally die.

    As for progress, we literally did stuff to do more (and that’s why in part LLMs arent that useful). Cooking was invented (or more like discovered?) to have more calories or to save more food for longer. Because it’s actually more labor to find a place, make a fire there, make all the stuff you need for cooking and then cook things right. It’s much easier to just eat your pray raw, but it’s less calories (because it’s harder to digest) and it spoils faster. And dont make me started on preserving stuff.

    Wheel was invented to haul more cargo, for longer. Computer aided manufacturing was made so one person can make more, and faster.

    You are confusing work with labour. Having a job isn’t natural, but doing stuff is. And if you actually stop doing stuff - i. e. just lie in bed, doing nothing - your body quickly start to suffer and then pretty much decompose.

    I would go as far as to say you need labour to be healthy. You need some kind of physical labour (be that sport, gym or something else) to be fit, and for your body to function properly. And you need to use your head to not be bored and go insane - to read, to think, to solve problems etc
