Like, I think there's some degree of like making bets that plumbing is going to be the job of the future feels like a waste.
So you let your kids pursue what you think they should pursue.
You teach them to be flexible, wide knowledge, deep knowledge, you know, give them agency.
I don't think things change that much.

I think compared to other technologies, I suspect that outside of using it for cheating, where there's real danger, or using it as an education where you're fooling yourself you're learning because the AI is explaining stuff to you, but you're not doing it yourself.
Outside of that use where there's a lot of being careful about this, I think it works like other technologies.
But is it better or worse than TikTok or anything else?
I think there's less passivity there and there's real value in it.

I think that's a really great example of the Jagged Frontier work, and we don't understand enough about that.
The biggest picture, there's only two questions that actually matter a lot, which is how good and how fast.
