A tried and true way of improving some aspect of yourself has always been found in the self-help aisle of your local bookstore. (Remember those?) Then came the internet and we suddenly had online courses ... plus YouTube and the thousands of creators telling you what you wanted (and didn't want) to hear. It was a win-win all around. People got advice and subject matter gurus got a career.
And then 2023 happened.
"New Technology Requires Humans To Think MORE, Not Less"
This is the story of how ChatGPT and other like-minded AIs are going to change the face of not just self-help, but pretty much everything we use the internet for. (Think Google and YouTube). Are we humans ready and prepared to use these new tools wisely? Or is this just one more step towards larger echo chambers and more polarization? Is global civil war just around the corner?

💬 So, what's this channel all about?
🤒 "Daddy Issues ... and the Lost Art Of Slow Drinking"
💬 Ummm, excuse me?
Hi, I'm Rick and I currently live and wander in a converted school bus, trying to create a more intentional and slower lifestyle. And believe me ... you can't get much slower than driving a skoolie. 😀
Basically I'm trying hard not to try so hard. To find joy, fun people, and a life that involves discovery and humor. To smile more and scream less. To eat my vegetables. And being the overly social person that I am, I want to share all of this with you.
