<td class="snippet">As Jessica Montgomery of the University of Cambridge has highlighted, a survey from 2017 indicated that the public felt AI-enabled art was the least useful AI technology, and yet we've seen hundreds of millions of dollars invested into programs that use AI to generate images.</td>

<td class="snippet">A computer can multiply two 20-digit numbers with speed and accuracy. This would be hard for even a math champ.<br>But a human can button a shirt, tie shoes, or fix a bowl of cereal with milk - things that would be tough to accomplish for an AI-powered robot.<br>Human beings think the multiplication challenge is hard. We think getting dressed and eating breakfast is easy. But when it comes to the computational power each task takes, we have it backward.</td>

But in the same breath, he says the large language model will take "the places in healthcare where AI can be beneficial and [expand] them by 10-fold." (We note that a tenfold increase on zero is still zero. So his statement might actually be technically true.)</td>

For the vast majority of people, our perceptual and cognitive relationship to communication and information technology will continue to be estranged and disempowered because of the velocity at which new products emerge... if and when such devices are introduced (and no doubt labeled as revolutionary), they will simply be facilitating the perpetuation of the same banal exercise of non-stop consumption, social isolation, and political powerlessness, rather than representing some historically significant turning point.</td> <td class="snippet">There never will be a "catching up" on either a social or individual basis in relation to continually changing technological requirements.

<td class="snippet">Our consumption patterns - resulting from the production and use of those goods and services - now stand responsible for more than half of all carbon emissions. Every day, the world discards 1.5 billion plastic cups, 250 million pounds of clothes, 220 million aluminum cans, 3 million tires. For every human being alive right now, there exists slightly more than one ton of discarded plastic out there somewhere, scattered on land or layered in the ground or adrift at sea... In the ocean alone, per every human, there exist 21,000 pieces of plastic, a net mass of shopping bags and six-pack rings and bottle caps that by 2050 will exceed the weight of all fish put together and is expected to double every six years for the foreseeable future. Meanwhile, in just the minute it took you to read this paragraph, another million plastic bottles have been discarded and another garbage truck full of plastic has entered the seas.</td>

<td class="snippet">To be vulnerable is to allow yourself to be seen, and sometimes it is so difficult - downright mortifying, even—to be perceived, isn't it? It's safer to sit quietly on the sidelines rather than play. It's safer to make nothing, to put nothing into the world, because then it can't be critiqued or judged, and there won't be mistakes for others to witness. If you don't try, you can't fail. It's true. But how unfulfilling is that?!</td>
