So, if we put this on an exponential curve forward, it seems that at<br>
some point, we won't have enough hours in the day to keep this curve<br>
going. So what happens then? I postulate that AIs will communicate on<br>
our behalf, and that this will reduce the amount of time we actually<br>
spend talking to each other directly. On this list, in fact, I've seen<br>
a number of us post AI missives already. I've done it myself. So, at<br>
some point, we'll be communicating with so many people, so often, that<br>
we won't even know it's happening, except in some sort of vague way...<br>
like a CEO having an executive secretary.<br></blockquote></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Or a hive mind, of one human plus their AIs, where the hive is not in perfect communication with itself.

This one was written without that assistance. Is it because you guys<br>
aren't important enough? Or is it because I deem you so important that<br>
you get the personalized treatment?<br></blockquote></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">The latter, almost certainly. Your time is more valuable than your AIs'.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I myself have yet to get that much value out of AIs. The ones I have tried, have largely either told me stuff I already knew, gave me general platitudes when I asked for very specific advice, or failed, either not doing as requested (such as ignoring strict word count requirements I explicitly passed along) or failing to function in the requested capacity (such as one attempted prediction series that was supposed to take in characteristics of the data and predict breaks from the trend but just predicted the last data point repeating, and others that failed to produce predictions at all). Maybe as they become better, I will get more use from them.</div><div dir="auto"><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
