The current iteration of AI already edits our emails, sorts our inboxes, and picks the next song we listen to. But convenience is just the start. Soon, the same technology could determine which ideas ever reach your mind — or form within it.

In the other, AI becomes a partner in truth seeking. It will surface counterarguments, flag open questions, draw on insight far beyond any single mind, and prompt us to check the evidence and sources. Errors will be chipped away, and knowledge will grow. Our freedom to question everything will stay intact and even thrive.
