And — For All Our Flaws — We Were Such A NICE Species

October 2, 2023October 1, 2023

Nick Bilton in Vanity Fair on the promise and menace of Artificial Intelligence.

You probably know a lot of this; but has it ever been written about so engagingly?

Great writing by a human.

The punchline would be if it had been written by ChatGPT, but that level of capability is at least a year or two off.

I know what to do about climate change and Ukraine and guns and reproductive rights and tax policy and health care and the Supreme Court — or think I do.

I don’t know what to do about this.


Have a great week.
