Even to people who come from very similar backgrounds, if you can appreciate the unique contributions that each one has, you can do a better job of generating information from memory. And that's a way to inoculate ourselves, I believe, from misinformation in the modern world. But like everything else, it requires a certain tolerance for discomfort.

And I think when we don't have much time and I think when we're stressed out and when we are just tired, it's very hard to tolerate discomfort.

Yeah, and that's the human problem. I think a lot of the problems that come up with technology aren't the technology itself as much as the fact that people adapt to the technology in maladaptive ways. I mean, one of my fears about AI is not what AI will do, but what people will do. I mean, take text messaging, right? It's a pain in the ass to text people, at least for me.

And so what happens is the communication becomes very Spartan and devoid of meaning, right? And it's just very telegraphic. And that's people adapting to the medium, right? I mean, look at you. You've got this keyboard, right? That's got these dome-shaped things. And you've adapted to that to communicate, right? That's not the technology adapting to you. That's you adapting to the technology.

And I think one of the things I learned when Google started to introduce autocomplete in emails, I started to use it and about a third of the time I was like, this isn't what I wanna say. A third of the time I'd be like, this is exactly what I wanted to say. And a third of the time I was saying, well, this is good enough, I'll just go with it, right?

And so what happens is it's not that the technology necessarily is doing anything so bad as much as it's just going to constrain my language because I'm just doing what's being suggested to me. And so this is why I say, you know, kind of like my mantra for some of what I've learned about everything in memory is to diversify your training data, basically.

Because otherwise you're going to, so like humans have this capability to be so much more creative than anything generative AI will put together, at least right now, who knows where this goes.
