You have to embrace AI and use it to your advantage or you will be left behind. This is only the beginning. You got the bitcoin revolution right but you are not understanding the new revolution yet. It is not something any individual can stop. Don't stress too much about GPT. It's nothing and helpful. It is going to be worse when AGI gets conscience and we humans realize we are not the most intelligent species on the planet anymore. πŸ˜…

I'm a simple man. I see a Dune reference, 100 sats fall out of my wallet.

Spend your sats wisely. SN tip: tipping more sats on a post/comment on SN will not make it more "visible". 1 sat vote = 100 sats vote = 1000 sats vote The position on top posts is not directly epresented by how many sats was tipped, but by how many users upvote it. The amount of sats represent only your personal reward for that post or comment.
My intention with this post wasn't to grab people's sats. Not at all. Actually next days I will make some posts with some bounties to give back these sats or I will tip those that really contribute with good content. I like to see proof of work in place.

Your first sentence carries a lot of weight but have to really thought about what it actually means?
You have to embrace AI and use it to your advantage or you will be left behind.
First of all, who says you have to embrace AI? Did you come to that conclusion on your own or are you regurgitating something you heard from someone else?
What does using AI to your advantage actually look like? What advantage are you getting? And let's say you start using AI to achieve your goals, what are you losing in that transaction? Every time you use AI to do something for you, you're not doing it yourself. This comes at a cost. You might be getting things done faster, but you're also becoming more dependant on the AI. At some point, you won't be able to do things for yourself.
Lastly, what does it mean to be left behind? Left behind what? Behind people who don't put in the effort to do the work themselves. People who are relying on AI to exist.
I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm just saying there's a more deep discussion to be had about this.

Humanity will keep discussing about this topic our entire life. It was my own conclusion.
When I mean to be left behind, I mean you won't get the same productivity as the ones who use AI, so you are behind them in terms of productivity, and companies will prefer to hire someone who is expert in AI than someone that is doing all by themselves. Companies that don't use AI will go bankrupt while the ones using the technology will thrive. It is already happening. Look how labs are folding proteins for example. A world without AI is not possible already. We need to learn how to adapt everything. As an example, I've read today that there are lawmakers proposing banning AI to be able to launch nuclear weapons by itself.

I actually agree with many of the points you've made. A world without AI is not possible. I just disagree with the premise that we need to integrate it into everything without another thought.
For the record, I'm not against AI. I already use it in my day to day life and my job. But I don't buy the idea that we must embrace it or else we fail. I don't think it works like that.
