True Humbe, we tend to first feel threatened by new technology before being open up to it, if I have to compare crypto to AI, my reaction to both are different as I was keen from the onset with Bitcoin back then and developed curiosity while for AI I feel humans are threatened, I feel human originality will be lost but as you mentioned we begin to open up and adapt, I have been slowing adapting to ChatGPT experimenting with ways it could be of benefit to me.
You touched on some salient points, I can't help but think as much as AI will be of help, could its negative be more than the positive with regards to the impact it will have on humans? That is my worry.
We are looking at the aspects of production, perhaps if we look at the aspect of AI to be used for destruction we might get that disturbing feeling of what we are dealing with. Why is The "Godfather of AI" Geoffrey Hinton so concerned about AI he had to step down at Google so he can freely express himself, has he seen some of the benefits and dangers we haven't seen yet?
I suppose we can let our minds wonder about AI all day long as it is an interesting topic. As for Africa let's hope it taps into it for its benefit though for as far as I have noticed, the larger part of the continent is unaware of what AI is, perhaps they are still trying to grasp the cryptocurrency thing.
Many thanks for watching, nice that you were carried away, great to know your perspective on the subject.
