The way I look at it, I subtrack the technology's inherent power, and focus om the human element that it directs. I see AI as a tool, not a solution in itself. Its only as good as it can be. Hinging entirely on our ability to ask the right questions, provide the proper context, and know when to challenge its output.

For me, the real skill in the age of AI isn't simply using the tool, but using it as the tool it is to probe deeper, double check answers, and not get carried away with AI’s “brilliance” vs. the human intelligence behind the prompts given.

I enjoyed reading this perspective and take from it the future possibly belongs to those who maintain their curiosity and critical thinking, ensuring that meaning and purpose aren't lost in a sea of automated output.

I think you nailed it—that’s exactly how I see it too. AI, like any technology, is just a tool. In the hands of a curious, open-minded person, it can take new and creative ideas to places we couldn’t reach before. But in the hands of someone without curiosity or without a solid foundation in the subject, it can just as easily mislead—hallucinating or serving up faulty information that ends up reinforcing misconceptions rather than challenging them.
