And even social networks are a good thing if you run them properly. It's difficult, but, you know, you can. Because, you know, it's... helps the communication of information and knowledge and the transmission of knowledge. So AI is going to make humanity smarter.

And the analogy I've been using is the fact that perhaps an equivalent event in the history of humanity to what might be provided by generalization of AI assistant is the invention of the printing press. It made everybody smarter. The fact that People could have access to books. Books were a lot cheaper than they were before.

And so a lot more people had an incentive to learn to read, which wasn't the case before. And people became smarter. It enabled the enlightenment, right? There wouldn't be an enlightenment without the printing press. It enabled... philosophy, rationalism, escape from religious doctrine, democracy, science,

And certainly without this, there wouldn't have been the American Revolution or the French Revolution. And so we'd still be under feudal regimes, perhaps. And so it completely transformed the world because people became smarter and kind of learned about things.

Now, it also created 200 years of essentially religious conflicts in Europe, because the first thing that people read was the Bible and realized that perhaps there was a different interpretation of the Bible than what the priests were telling them. And so that created the Protestant movement and created the Rift.

And in fact, the Catholic Church didn't like the idea of the printing press, but they had no choice. And so it had some bad effects and some good effects. I don't think anyone today would say that the invention of the printing press had an overall negative effect, despite the fact that it created 200 years of religious conflicts in Europe. Now, compare this

And I thought I was very proud of myself to come up with this analogy, but realized someone else came with the same idea before me. Compare this with what happened in the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Empire banned the printing press for 200 years. And he didn't ban it for all languages, only for Arabic.
