Human Amplification Through AI
AI has the potential to amplify human capabilities rather than diminish them, allowing individuals to evolve into better versions of themselves. This transformative power comes from programming machines to learn and adapt, contrasting with traditional programming methods. Learning machines can provide superhuman abilities by scaling compute and data, thereby enhancing our intelligence, wisdom, and compassion. A key assertion is that AI should be harnessed to aid human engagement and connection, rather than creating dependencies that could detract from personal agency.
