The Gap: Humanity vs Technology

Have you seen the news on AI lately?

The "AI Revolution" is upon us and millions - nay, billions - of humans will be forced into adoption of this exciting/terrifying/spectacular technology... and through this forced adoption... will either struggle to survive or evolve and *hopefully* thrive.

Will you be one of the lucky ones?

As the gap between technology widens - have you considered if you have the wherewithal to jog, spring, RUN... the long distance race to keep and stay ahead of this fast-paced quickly evolving technology and not be left in the dust?

Millions won't.

And the sad truth is, as the gap widens and AI continues evolving faster than some can keep up - stagnation will occur, and the not-so-bright side of this boom of innovation will be too much to keep up with....

The result isn't pretty:

Death.

Addiction, desperation, and survive.

The stakes couldn't be greater - this is the reality we are hurling towards - and the gravity of this situation weighs on the collective consciousness of humanity reaching to all corners of the globe.

Is this how Skynet begins? Will AI replace our sense of meaning and purpose in the work that we do? The thoughts we create?

Will original thought be left to hang in the proverbial gallows where thinkers, writers and creators are sent to hang only to find the once-human executioner has been replaced with machines built by machines... built by machines?

God help us, Sara Connor.

But while the fear, anxiety, and gloom casting it's shadow from the oncoming AI tsunami is simultaneously making countless innovators, visionaries, and entrepreneurs rich amongst a sea of confusion...

What if there was a way to prepare and prevent the worst from happening?

What if there was a way we could prepare people to adapt - THINK - and learn how to harness the power of AI to not only stay ahead of the curve be more creative, and leverage this incredible technology and develop new skills?

New habits, products, and creations that push the greater good of humanity and our collective consciousness forward while simultaneously bridging the widening gap between humanity and technology?

I believe it can be done.

At least... I believe we can push the conversation forward by developing a program/process/model that trains humans to extend and enhance their abilities to THINK and make better choice with generative AI and as a result - writing, creativity, and communication abilities increase.

Why thinking?

By thinking critically about the collaborative process of writing and creating content with generative AI tools like Jasper, one can continue improving their ability of CHOICE...

Choice gives us power over machine to maintain control over what gets produced with our unique thought and perspective the generalized content produced by AI cannot...

This extends our abilities to not be replaced by robots taking over our thought process devouring us of choice and ability to think...

...which if we lose our ability to think and make better choices, by doing so, depletes purpose and leads to depression, addictions stagnation, and ultimately... death.

If not a physical death, then a death of choice which leads to loss of meaning, purpose, and destruction of the human soul because we have lost control.

If the act of thinking and choice get handed over to AI without question of consequence, we've already lost.

We cannot let that happen.

The war has already begun over AI taking our abilities to think...

To make choices...

To create.

To be human.

Are you running yet?

If not, now is the time to start.

Which side of this gap between humanity and technology with you land?

Will you stand? Adapt? Improve?

Will you think?

Will you run?

Or will you fall behind?

Consider the thought you put into answering those questions...

The choice is yours.

At least, for now.
