#2ai is different from factories, but i feel like this blogpost could be applied equally to the appearance of factories in the eighteenth century as an incentive for progress to stall

#3Think about how it will feel to come up against a bot that can combine existing information in unexpected ways, in an instant, constantly absorbing and utilising any new fragment that's out there. What's the point of innovating any more, when you're an amateur chess-player who's always coming up against a Grand Master? Will this be a disincentive for human-led innovation?
AI is essentially a skill/technology replication machine. This is what makes it different from all prior technological disruptions as this one has no end.
"Climbing the skill ladder is going to look more like running on a treadmill at the gym. No matter how fast you run, you aren’t moving, AI is still right behind you learning everything that you can do."

I agree there is another side of the medal, if that’s what you mean. In fact, if we accept that innovation is also the recombination of existing knowledge, then AI will help up discover entire fractals of new stuff.
