one of the genuinely surprising effects of working with βAIβ is that it really clarified my understanding of what it means to be human and why that matters.
as per last RT, so many βAIβ things just utterly *miss the point* of why we do anything - read, write, love, watch sports, make music
Itβs a Sunday, so I will stop thinking about work and instead do entirely pointless things that make feel happy, fulfilled and alive, including: reading an unnecessarily difficult novel, watching a bike race in real time, and tending to my very inefficient garden
at the risk of repeating myself, Shannon Vallor makes this point about preserving our humanity in the face of βAIβ very beautifully in her new book βThe AI Mirrorβ
