Great piece 🌿

Well said! I don't understand the people who dismiss the capabilities of AI without even considering it. It's a powerful, multifaceted tool that can be used for good or evil.

And I like how you brought up how we'll need to learn to use it, to adapt. It will be like the new Microsoft word for writers - even the most efficient writers physically would not be able to copy and paste as fast as a computer, so adapting is necessary.

I actually wrote a piece about AI as a personal assistant in the future and it's implications. Have you heard of the alignment problem? Keep up the good work!

For better or worse, we can’t ignore it as it is out there. We can only try to steer it towards better.

Yeah, alignment is certainly a tough issue. Hopefully some of the minds smarter than me can figure out how exactly it can be done. I’m not as much of a doomer in terms of AI being the end of us as some, but it should definitely be taken seriously.

An AI personal assistant is a very interesting topic. I’ll be sure to check out your piece. Thanks for reading!
