What’s the upside of AI? Genuinely asking
Discussion
Convenience.
Convenience can come with a cost if left unchecked, can lose a bit of that human spirit
Sure, but you asked for an upside, and that is the main one. It can make complex tasks much simpler.
If everyone has their own personal AI and there is not a single AI that controls everyone, then it might be cool to have basically a super powerful entity looking out for you and helping you out. Otherwise think we are all doomed.
