Whenever I do anything, such as math, writing, science, or even playing games, there’s always this thought in the back of my head going “There’s something out there that can be 100 times better than you that requires just a quarter of the time to prepare.” Although it sounds so silly, AI makes me feel like I’m useless.
When I want to go and try my best at some skill, and put in my full effort, I get knocked back by the thought that ‘What’s the point? There’s something out there that does it perfectly.” And it completely dejects me from making a true effort.
Regardless of this, I know that being good at something isn’t the only thing a person is capable of. Like, learning chess isn’t only about being good at chess, but the things you learn from chess can help you make decisions in your future. I understand this, and I want to take that approach with everything in life, but I feel like I can’t get over this feeling of inferiority. I can’t shake the feeling that no matter what I do, I’m a sort of old model that can’t do anything as good as the new model. I want to be reignited with the idea that I can, please help me figure out how.

This may sound silly as a response, but I would talk to a therapist buddy. They’re beyond helpful and WILL help you achieve what you ask.
Please search out some professional help – therapist, de, psychologist….
