Addiction irony

The more we rely on AI to ‘fix’ human connection, the more we… lose human connection. [Insert Barbra Streisand weeping.]

The autonomous truck training highlights a gap, and that is, simulations, no matter how advanced, are only as good as their designers’ understanding of chaos. Costa Rica’s roads (with sleeping dogs and darting iguanas) reveal how much unpredictability we take for granted in human judgment.

As we delegate more of our humanity to machines (judgment, connection, even grief) what’s left for us to do? And who do we become in the process?

Thank you David.

I mentioned what we become: semi-intelligent bits of self indulgent protoplasm. I hope not but I’m nit convinced. I think with plastic surgery Barbra is no longer able to create tears
