Looking at the progress of AI in recent years, I can't help but feel that the
world will be very different in 20 years. The seeds of world-changing technology
are visible here and there. However, it always takes longer than expected for it
to become mature and ordinary people can use it.
It was like the Internet in 1995. It was clear that the world was going to
change, but it took the widespread use of smartphones after 2010 for ordinary
people, not just early adopters, to use it in their daily lives.
However, once AI is integrated as an essential part of society, the history of
mankind will change irreversibly. Just as the emergence of the steam engine once
rewrote the history of mankind forever. Perhaps the lifestyles that we take for
granted now will also change.
By that time, I will be an old man, so I don't know if I will be able to fully
adapt to the new society. However, children born in the future will accept this
kind of AI as something very natural, alongside old traditional technologies,
and live with it as a given. That's how society changes. It has always been that
way in the history of humanity over the past few hundred years. That's fine.
We will all become the "bosses" of AI. Our economic power will be determined by
our ability to use AI. This coexistence of humanity and AI will continue for at
least the next few decades. However, to be honest, I'm not sure if humanity will
continue to be the "boss" and AI the "subordinate" forever. In the
not-too-distant future, serious discussions may begin to take place on who will
inherit this civilization that humanity started. However, by that time, I will
have passed away and will not be able to see the conclusion.
