Scott Adams

I would have been in an office cubicle with a pointy haired boss probably 10 times already and hating my life.

So without him knowing it, those little comic strips caught my eye and changed the trajectory of my life.

Now I'm in a garage just doing stuff.

So I love it.

have i what am i i um i've done a lot of things in my life right now i'm focusing in on uh artificial intelligence and robotics as i think it's the most transformative um epoch in human history and i don't think we're fully understanding exactly the impact and magnitude it's going to have on society so i'm trying to

grok that as much as i can and adjust and hopefully help others adjust and using a lot of reframing that scott has taught us all in seeing this wave coming at us and trying to make sense of it and still hold on to our humanity in the process so um

It's been something I've been doing for a very long time.

My very first, I think, AI experience, it really wasn't AI, but I convinced myself it was, was in the late 1970s.

And VIC-20 computer, Commodore 64, really, an expert system.

And I've been hooked on the concept ever since of having this external brain.

Um, but try not to be dystopian about it.

I don't think I've ever fallen into the dystopian mindset, but I'm not utopian about it either because I think we just have to be aware that it's, it's a tool, but it's going to be something more than that.

And, uh, that's kind of where I, where I am right now.

Sure.

Voice-first was really a terminology I used before people understood what chat GPT was.

It's really a container for interacting with AI or intelligent machines, but in this case, AI, without the need to actually thumb claw on a glass screen.

Because I mean, that's a de-evolution.

I mean, I had typing class and I was doing pretty good for a while.

And now we've all thumb clawed on screens.

And the only reason that we have to use commands in arcane language is because computer didn't understand us.
