> AI only needs to be as good as a human and cheaper Setting aside the current limitations of LLMs for a moment, this is just a really unfortunate view on a new tech in my opinion. Its nothing unique here so I don't mean to single you out. I've seen it plenty of other places. The idea, though, that we effectively imply that most humans are idiots and we just need to invent something that is as good at being a functional idiot but for much less money leaves humanity in a terrible place. What does the world look like if we succeed at that? To you main question, though, I think differences in human opinions and ideas can be easily misconstrued as a lack of intelligence. Our would also consider environmental factors of the average person. I'll stick with the US as its what I am most familiar with. The average american has what I'd consider a high level of stress, chronic health conditions, one or more pharmaceutical prescriptions, and our food system is sorely lacking and borderline poisonous. With all those factors in play I can't put too much weight behind my view of the average person's intelligence. |

Affluent societies that abandon an ideal of personal development bound to forces that bring to a catastrophic configuration of society, with devastating effects: the absurdity, the risks and impact, the diversion from propriety merit all focus.
I shall add: the Great Scarcity today is... Societies.
