It's evolution and our responsibility to make it good.

Doesn't matter though if we like it or not because it's happening.

The only thing preventing this is a total economy collapse so crazy that our society doesn't continue chip production.

We weren't able to make the internet good, what makes you think we'll do any better with AI?

The internet is responsible for longer lifespans and decreased mortality globally. It is, on balance, well beyond "good."

I can do my bank stuff online, pay and manage bills, can call my parents with video, send pictures etc.

Internet is a huge success.

Internet is connection not private websites.

I appreciate the optimism but to me this should have been you essay about the good of the internet. I'm convinced it would be worth reading. If you wrote it, I wont see it because that is how certain people like it.

My lengthy rant in response would likely be about the almost impossible puzzle of logistics, the access to the vast ocean of knowledge that humanity has accumulated and the organization of this complete mess that is civilization.

We have plenty of stuff, we just cant get it to the right place at the right time. We know plenty of stuff but we cant get it to the right person at the right price. We really want to make this democracy thing work but despite our effort we keep getting sausages filled with you don't want to know.

My definition of a huge success is different. Maybe I'm wrong for thinking we could do more with the tool. If I'm wrong I don't want to hear it :-)

To make it good, critics need to point out where it’s going bad.
