But I'm also reading somewhat more fiction.

Now, AI might in time become very good at fiction, but we're not there now.

So fiction is more special.

It's becoming more human.

And I should read more of it.

And I'm doing that.

Well, that's wrong as stated, but he may have put it in a more complex way.

He's a very smart guy, of course.

AI already does better diagnosis on humans than medical doctors.

Not by a lot, but by somewhat.

And that's free.

And that's great.

But if you need brain surgery, for some while, you still need the human doctor.

So human doctors will need to adjust.

And if someone imagines that at some point robots do the brain surgery better, well, fine.

But I'm not convinced that's within the next 10 years.

That would surprise me.

It's probably true, but I would add as an interpretation, the value of meta-rationality has gone up.

So to date, we have not selected doctors for their ability to work with AI, obviously, but some doctors have the personal quality.

It's quite distinct from intelligence, but of just knowing when they should defer to someone or something else.
