efficiency and productivity, we have already lost our throne to machines that perform dozens of times better than humans.\u003cbr\u003e However, the message that the book “Useless Humanity” wants to convey is not just about the usefulness of humans.\u003cbr\u003e Uselessness is not the end, but a new beginning.\u003cbr\u003e At one time, horses were more useful than humans as 'vehicles', but they lost their usefulness after industrialization.\u003cbr\u003e However, horses gain higher value in the areas of horse racing, equestrianism, and culture.\u003cbr\u003e The same goes for humans.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThis book examines why and how humans became useless within the context of history and technology.\u003cbr\u003e In the face of machines and robots, humans explore what new possibilities can be opened up in the face of uselessness.\u003cbr\u003e In particular, while showing the dramatic changes brought about by AI and robots in the workplace through specific examples and statistics, it also does not miss the philosophical theme of rediscovering humanity at the end.\u003cbr\u003e In the race for efficiency and speed, humans have already been pushed out.\u003cbr\u003e However, there is hope that areas that cannot be replaced by machines, such as emotions, ethics, relationships, and imagination, will still remain in human hands.\u003cbr\u003e 《Useless Humanism》 speaks to the reader somewhat coldly.\u003cbr\u003e “We must face our anxiety and reality.”\u003cbr\u003e At the same time, it reminds us that beyond fear, there is a new hope at the fingertips of human beings. \u003cbr\u003eAt the end of usefulness, humans find true meaning, and this will soon become the motivation and survival strategy necessary for all those living in the

AI and robots are no longer mere tools; they've emerged as agents that replace humans. AI writes developers' code, reviews lawyers' contracts, and even assists doctors in medical diagnoses.\u003cbr\u003e Robots are replacing skilled welders and cleaners, evolving into humanoid forms and mimicking human limbs.\u003cbr\u003e Faced with these beings that work faster, more accurately, and longer than humans, humans are losing their competitiveness in the traditional sense.\u003cbr\u003e But the author of \"Useless Humanity\" offers a paradoxical hope at precisely that point. \u003cbr\u003eFor the first time, humans have the opportunity to escape the shackles of 'usefulness'.\u003cbr\u003e In a place where the shackles of efficiency and productivity are freed, humans can instead question and redefine the very meaning of existence.\u003cbr\u003e At the intersection of crisis and transition, the author makes a philosophical declaration.\u003cbr\u003e “AI dominates utility, but humans fight back with ‘meaning.’”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e“The end of usefulness is the beginning of humanity.”\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The speed at which AI and robots are replacing humans has surpassed previous imagination.\u003cbr\u003e It is no longer a simple production aid, but has become a direct threat to human status.\u003cbr\u003e Part 1 of this book confronts this stark reality.\u003cbr\u003e The era of \"thigh pain\" that spread simultaneously in the United States and Korea cannot be explained simply by a labor shortage or generational change. \u003cbr\u003ePeople are leaving their jobs on their own, asking, “Why should I go to work when machines can do my job better?”\u003cbr\u003e New lifestyles like the NEET tribe reveal not simply a matter of laziness, but the existential anxiety of humans placed in the unfamiliar position of \"uselessness.\"\u003cbr\u003e “How on earth can we prove ourselves?”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Part 2 addresses the above question in a historical context.\u003cbr\u003e For a long time, humans have defined themselves based on usefulness.\u003cbr\u003e Starting out as self-sufficient beings in nature, we have raised livestock, controlled machines, and collaborated with computers.\u003cbr\u003e But today, with AI and robots at the forefront, humans are at risk of being reduced to the livestock of their own creations rather than their masters.\u003cbr\u003e History proves the irony of that transition.\u003cbr\u003e Horses were once a key tool for agriculture and warfare, but they became useless the moment automobiles appeared. \u003cbr\u003eBut it's not gone forever.\u003cbr\u003e Rather, words have gained higher value in the realms of leisure and culture.\u003cbr\u003e Humans are also facing the same fate.\u003cbr\u003e It may become useless on the stage of efficiency, but it can shine again on the stage of new meaning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The final third part explores how a useless human being can survive.\u003cbr\u003e The author's conclusion is unequivocal.\u003cbr\u003e Now, humans have only one verb left: 'Demand'.\u003cbr\u003e The era of Do it Yourself is over, now is the era of Demand it Yourself.\u003cbr\u003e Even if you don't create it yourself, the ability to clearly ask for what you want becomes the new competitive edge.\u003cbr\u003e As automation becomes more complete, the value of handmade products increases, and as the cost of every endeavor approaches zero, creative demands become more meaningful.\u003cbr\u003e Humans are reborn as planners of meaning, not producers.\u003cbr\u003e 《Useless Humanism》 says: \u003cbr\u003eDance is not a fear, it is a liberation.\u003cbr\u003e Efficiency and speed are the domain of machines, but uniquely human qualities such as relationships, emotions, ethics, and imagination are still areas that machines cannot imitate.\u003cbr\u003e The end of usefulness is the beginning of meaning, and that beginning is right before us now. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e -
