My intro piece on this Ai business seems to be doing the rounds.
Fresh Substack. Novel insights. None of the Ai hysteria and midwit takes.
Issue one is a 2min read, but if that’s too much, the TLDR is:
Ai is a tool, not an emergent sentient being. AGI is a red-herring, the real dangers are from the people wielding the tools. It’s on us to build better tools. Humanity is deeper, richer and more complex than the reductionists & Ai hysterics think.
