And if you say, for let's say an unimportant decision where you shouldn't be putting too much effort in anyway, like for me, choosing jeans, what style of jeans, I don't know, I don't care, chat GPT, what's fashionable right now?

I have to know what and who I'm delegating that decision to, right?

Those are humans.

Those are humans who figured out which data, which objectives, there's a whole bunch of human stuff in there that I am delegating my decisions to.

And when it's genes, fine.

But when it's medical decisions, when it's love, when it's career, when it's bigger things, if we begin to treat these systems like all-knowing oracles,

we are giving away our human agency.

Whereas if we instead use these as tools, tools to make ourselves better, but we keep human judgment, because there is no way to automate human judgment.

We all judge and discern differently.

And it matters that we understand that we are still responsible.

We take that responsibility and we use these beautiful tools

when they serve us, and we drop them when they don't, and we keep our human agency.

I don't want to see swaths of humanity all doing the same thing that ChatGPT told them to do.

I want us to keep thinking.

I want us to keep creating.

I want us to keep being beautiful.

And I see these tools as having such potential to elevate every single one of us.

Just think of all the drudgery you could drop.

You don't like something, complain about it into one of these tools.

Maybe you'll find a way to do whatever it is better.
