Just wanted to say I really appreciated @abundance's comment in the DAO call today about comparing AI to the development of the graphical user interface. 

This comment was in the context of how AI can operate software tools for us and all we have to do is interact with the AI.

GUI's don't think for us, or make decisions, or even be creative in any way. It still requires the human to do that. 

I think we have to treat AI the same way. It can't think, decide, or create on its own (so stop trying to make it do those things!)

Humans still have to have the knowledge, creativity, and executive functioning to express their agency. 

AI is just a new way to interact with technology that makes the tedious and monotonous parts faster and more precise.

Building /farcastle. Tryna help humans coordinate. TANSTAAFL! https://bootleggers.wtf/

Might fuck around and give 'em a conscience too

I agree. 

But also, when the robot armies rise up against us, I'm pointing at you for teaching them how to think.

Very true. But I feel a responsibility to help the AI understand what I know, my criteria for making decisions, and sources of inspiration. Teaching is also a valuable process for getting yourself better
