To learn, to create, to grow? None of these things necessarily involve other humans.

Absolutely wrong, of course. At the risk of engaging with apparent rage bait: social interaction is one type of human yearning. So are learning, creating, and growing. Each of them requires other humans. Learning requires studying the knowledge created by other humans. Creating requires materials and methods created by other humans. Growing requires learning, so by extension, other humans.

>Learning requires studying the knowledge created by other humans.

You can learn from AI. Just because it comes from another human you doing have to socialize with that human.

>Creating requires materials and methods created by other humans.

You can AI generate these materials. And even if you don't, downloading an image or using a method from someone else does not require socialize with them.

> You can learn from AI.

Try learning to box from an AI.

> You can AI generate these materials

Um...no...I meant actual material things that you use to create what you want. The supply chains that manufacture the materials necessary for you to "create" all require social interaction at multiple levels throughout the process.

Sorry, your depressing anti-social hermit paradise can't exist.

But why if no-one is around to see it, admire it, comment on it, use it?

If a human lives and no one noticed that human, did that human really live or have a life?

Much like a soundless tree in the forest.

a human can not be brought into this world without being painfully noticed.
