Martin Chang ☛ Gemini as the Final Frontier of Human Cognition
I haven't written about Gemini in a long time. The late AI wave has gotten me really concerned about the future of humanity. Humans are the apex species on Earth because we are the most intelligent species. But AI seems to have surpassed us. I think we are truly in uncharted land at this point. I am not a pessimist about AI becoming Skynet. But I don't think the world is ready for the economic impact of AI, even if just in its current form. It is conceivable that AIs can do a lot of what humans do right now (not saying bullshit jobs have and might continue to exist in the future, hell, companies still have people doing paperwork and running between departments for approval today).
