<h3 style="font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal;">We May Be Witnessing the End of the "Age of Competence"</h3>AI has already surpassed humans in Go. Since AlphaGo, calculating the "optimal move" is no longer the human domain. Yet, it’s strange: professional Go has not disappeared. If anything, it has become even more intense since the rise of AI research.Why? Because people don't pay to see the "optimal move." They pay to witness the narrative and the emotion.<h3 style="font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal;">Perfection Does Not Create Inspiration</h3><img src="https://d20jzv1ghtxgkk.cloudfront.net/images_temp/1/image-1777017709475.png" width="90%" draggable="true" style="max-width: 100%; width: 100%; height: auto; cursor: pointer;">AI doesn't make mistakes—at least, far fewer than humans. But consider this: what are the moments that get us excited in sports? It’s not the machine-like, perfect plays. It’s the moment someone wavers under pressure, the decisive blow struck in a state of physical exhaustion, or the tears shed after a defeat.Look at the Premier League. Technologically superior "robot soccer" could exist; it would overwhelm humans in speed, accuracy, and tactical understanding. Yet, the Premier League won't disappear. That’s because we aren't consuming "performance"—we are consuming narratives and emotions.<h3 style="font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal;">The World AI Dominates vs. The World Humans Remain In</h3>The world dominated by AI has specific characteristics:<ul class="editorBulletList"><li class="editor_editorListItem__FKzSL">There is a correct answer.</li><li class="editor_editorListItem__FKzSL">Optimization is possible.</li><li class="editor_editorListItem__FKzSL">Efficiency is the core.</li></ul>However, the world where humans remain is different:<ul class="editorBulletList"><li class="editor_editorListItem__FKzSL">There is no correct answer.</li><li class="editor_editorListItem__FKzSL">Meaning is what matters.</li><li class="editor_editorListItem__FKzSL">Relationships are what drive things.</li></ul>AI dominates calculations. But empathy cannot be reduced to a calculation.<img src="https://d20jzv1ghtxgkk.cloudfront.net/images_temp/1/image-1777017734355.png" width="90%" draggable="true" style="max-width: 100%; width: 100%; height: auto; cursor: pointer;"><h3 style="font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal;">Paradoxically, Entertainment May Become Stronger</h3>Ironically, once AI handles most production, humans will have more free time. And humans will eventually spend that time on stories, games, dramas, and communities.<ul class="editorBulletList"><li class="editor_editorListItem__FKzSL">News: AI can draft an article, but we still care about "who is saying it."</li><li class="editor_editorListItem__FKzSL">Film: AI can write a scenario, but we watch for the actor’s face, the director’s worldview, and the creator’s philosophy.</li></ul>Ultimately, money comes from the tension created by human wavering.<h3 style="font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal;">The Value of the "Human Stage"</h3>While content will grow exponentially, finding content worth watching will likely become harder. As AI replaces more, the realm where humans stand directly on stage will shrink relatively. But that also means this: experiences directly provided by humans will become more precious.Live performances, actual sporting events, content spoken directly by a person—these might seem replicable, but they are never fully replaceable. We assign meaning not to "who does it better," but to "that person’s narrative."<h3 style="font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal;">So, How Will We Make a Living?</h3>I am not saying everyone should become an entertainer. But one thing is becoming clear: the area that will become more intense is the "competence competition." The area that will become more expensive is the "humanity competition."As AI grows stronger, perfection becomes common. And common things become cheap. Conversely, things that are imperfect but human, things that are flawed but real, things that must be done by that specific person—these are highly likely to become increasingly expensive.Just as Go remained even after AI shattered its ceiling, won't entertainment and content naturally become the truly human domains?

As AI Becomes Perfect, What Remains for Humans?
