Beyond AI looks past both hype and resistance to ask what technology changes, what it makes easier and what people must continue to practise deliberately. It considers artificial intelligence as a powerful partner while protecting concentration, imagination, patience, judgement and independent thought.
“Progress should give us more freedom to live — not simply more reasons to stay busy.”
