Comment on I just learned 37% of Americans fear vaccinating their dog will cause the dog to develop autism. 😐

No, and I’ve been giving it a lot of thought.

I had a brief, fanciful idea a few years back that if everyone starts using AI that it would help increase personal education and knowledge throughout the world.

That worked out as good as the feeling I had back in the mid 90’s where I said “Wow, if everyone has access to all this information, the future generations of this world are going to be fantastically intelligence, we will have starships by the time I’m old!”

We might need to accept and start compensating for the hard fact that we are just complex apes and have fundamental limitations as populations. It might not get better. We might make more new things and we might create new ways of living, but we’re always going to be spiraling around our own limited cognition and our survival instincts that make us forget to think.
