I am feeling surprisingly indifferent. I've been changing my work and non-work habits quite a bit, automating a lot of tedious tasks, doing tasks I'd find too tedious in the past, using it for jumping off points on creative things, "looking up" things I wouldn't have looked up before, refreshing my memory on books I've read before... ...and yet, getting used to it very quickly and not particularly confident that it's going to be a massive "change everything", maybe because I don't really have any prediction how it will change everything. But also, I guess, because I don't know if we're on an S-curve to 20% change or to 1000% change or what. I share what I do with it with friends and family. I hope not to be to obsessive "that guy" about it and to suss out if they're interested, and so far they also try it out and share their results, and right now I think that's the best I can do for them and for myself. It's early days. I have a 7yo, she doesn't read much yet. I expect it will be incorporated into her education later on, and no real clue how. I think the best I can do for her is stay on top of things myself. It might all be coming fast, but change will be limited by how fast people can process it. I think readers here will basically all be well ahead of the majority of the wave. Stuff goes mainstream fast these days, and there's also a huge population of people hacking on things now, and so we may be surprised by how much might get ahead of us in the peripheral, but we are probably the best people situated to stay ahead of the wave overall, even without much effort. |
