The other big danger on this is that there are things that AI can do better than humans, but if we don't do them for 10 or 12 years, we don't develop the capacity to determine whether AI is right or not.

human beings evolved to make decisions in very different ways from the way LLMs work…we’re not reliant on data sets to deal with a problem. Thing like metaphor, abstraction, things like fiction. Human beings have developed all sorts of ways we can handle complete novelty without having to replicate what we know from the past

As neuroscientist Daniel Wolpert explains: “We have a brain for one reason and one reason only—to produce adaptable and complex movements. Movement is the only way we have of affecting the world around us… Everything else—thoughts, emotions, memories—can be viewed as serving this ultimate goal.”

This approach recognizes that we aren’t floating brains but complete organisms whose understanding is fundamentally shaped by physical interaction with the world.
