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.
