where does ai take us we’re in a phase where it is addicting. it makes us feel smarter and faster. it’s got all the trappings of a quick hit quick win. it also burns us out. using it a lot is exhausting (i want to explore more about why it is exhausting).

this feeling, this addiction, that it creates is potentially our downfall when we still have control over what’s next for each of us individually. those last sips when it feels extra good before you forget how you got here. i feel better being faster and feeling smarter. but is this temporary?

or is our worry and anxieties over this outsized? is this just an “extra good” or “different medium” moment like “excel was for accountants” (as everyone says) or CAD was for architecture? i don’t know. it’s definitely different.
