I think humans haven’t even adapted to the internet yet, and now we’re adding AI to it. We’re in for a wild ride.

What do you think makes it wild?

It's a disruptive technology.

reply

Yeah, agree. I'm trying to hammer down most disruption I can personally suffer from it - ironically I am in about a third of my defenses using fire to fight fire, which feels a bit off, but I see no other way to deal with the spam in some cases.

have you adapted?

how are the flying lessons going?

No.

how are the flying lessons going?

Thanks for asking! They’re on pause until I have enough stable income again.

reply

I don't feel I have either. But stepping back from it is a good palliative.

Flying would be a great hobby. Hopefully I can afford it one day too.

To be honest, I was almost involved in a car accident recently, and it would have been my fault. It really made me wonder whether I have what it takes to be a pilot. But I'm still eager to find out. I hope my flight instructor will tell me if he thinks I shouldn't be flying.

well, no cars in the air (yet), so you're probably good.
