When I read your title I thought "yeah, right. well let's see if he has anything to say".

Then I quickly realized you were speaking some deep truths that are unfortunately depressing to think about. You're absolutely right, though.

It seems like most of the ways things could play out are not good for the human race. Feels like we're threading a needle.

Because my daily life doesn't require a lot of speeding ticket fights and other legal entanglements?

You and I must lead very different lives.

Interesting thoughts, ChatGPT.

The Flintstones was actually futuristic.

I work in tech as a career software developer and I'm finding that my non-tech friends and relatives seem to have better intuition about the significance of what we're seeing and where things are going. My co-workers seem uninterested and don't get it.

This surprises me and I don't have a satisfying explanation for it.

I think they *think* they know more than they do and are dismissing it based on their prior experience with AI tech. That's my best theory.

What, exactly is a divine spark?

This is only going to cause people to lie about their creations and not be up-front about AI usage. As it improves, it will be harder and harder to detect, if not impossible.

At that point it will be the honor system, which is not sustainable.

I predict the policy will not last.

That is pretty incredible. Thank you for sharing.

I too welcome our new AI overlords.
