Fluff

I’m tired of "fluff".

Not a day goes by without me reading yet another article or watching yet another video about the professions artificial intelligence is going to wipe out.

And not a day goes by without the seminars, webinars, videos, books, and reports I consume being filled with fluff.

AI is going to erase all your fluff.

Completely.

It will wipe it out. It will make it disappear.

And if you keep going like this, it will wipe out not only you, but also the professions you belong to.

It is already solving tangible physics calculations, fairly difficult programming tasks, and serious mathematical problems.

It writes highly systematic reports. It produces summaries.

Do you really think it will not be able to produce the fluffy stories you tell, or the fluff-filled slides you present?

It will do them better.

Do you really think it will not throw back in your face the books you wrote purely out of commercial concern?

It will do all of this.

One by one. And even all at once.

I think you should be worried.

We need real ideas, the foundations those ideas stand on, and clear minds.

Wake up.

Stop the fluff.
