Every new technology we implement becomes a crutch. If we lean on it long enough, it becomes a requirement. Then we are forced to rely on it, use it, and maintain it. Cars were instrumental in destroying walkable communities and promoting sprawl. What was once a luxury is now a necessity. Another example is email. It was supposed to make work easier. Instead, it made work longer and probably more intensive. What with AI bring? Hard to say. You can ask the internet anything already. ChatGPT just makes it easier and faster. But what happens when people find a way to glean personal information or specs on vital infrastructure and how to disrupt it? One thing I know for sure. Someone's getting rich first and it's not the unwashed masses.
Excellent work, yet again!

In my opinion, new developments cannot be stopped, the trick is to deal with them properly!
Great read with insightful information that enlightens the mind. Recently I tried my hand at some tech writing, AI is coming and I thought I’d put together a rounded article—would love your eyes and insights 😊 https://tumbleweedwords.substack.com/p/ai-enters-our-everyday-reflections
