Today it occurred to me we are living the last blessed days before encroachment and 100% saturation of AI. Although AI is rapidly seeping into nearly every facet of life, making significant inroads, it isn’t entirely endemic just yet. We are sitting low on the exponential curve and about to accelerate beyond the safety of any seatbelt, into a new world that no one can prepare for.
Enjoy these last days of independent thought in the connected world. Avatars will soon tell the news, and advertisements – actually, scratch that, entertainment – will be AI generated and personalized to every viewer, most creative works (music, writing, art) will lean heavily on or be entirely AI generated, and mass layoffs in every white collar field will lead to a massive collapse into an economic black hole.
