  1. AI YOU CAN PUT DOWN 💎

    This TED talk by Scott Phoenix is well worth watching.

    I agree with his central point: the relationship between #human beings and #AI will become increasingly close. AI can extend our intelligence, perception, memory and #physical reach in ways we have barely begun to explore.

    In that sense, we are already merging.

    Where I part #company with the presentation is the idea that this merging must eventually mean physically integrating AI into the #brain tissue of every #healthy human #being.

    Why perform #surgery when increasingly seamless external devices can provide the same benefits while remaining removable, replaceable, freely chosen and far less invasive?

    A #wheelchair extends the body's range.

    A #telescope extends vision.

    A #smartphone extends memory and communication.

    A #robot avatar will extend our presence all the way to the Moon.

    None of these needs to become part of our flesh to become part of our real lives.

    I also do not think humanity is taking control of #evolution. We may gain more power to design our individual lives in the short term, but evolution has not stopped.

    Evolution is operating the #tools through us.

    So yes, I believe human beings and AI are merging functionally.

    But merging does not have to mean implantation.

    The most #intelligent technology may be tech we can still put down.
