AI job losses are inevitable.
@richardalijos argues that this isn’t new: the tractor displaced workers, the loom transformed industries, and AI may simply be the next major shift.
Should we slow AI down, or focus on helping people adapt?

If writing were invented today, would people fear it the way some fear AI?
@richardalijos argues that books already outsourced part of human memory and stored knowledge outside our minds.
With @hadizel:

Would you keep doing work you believe matters even if it barely paid?
@richardalijos calls publishing “a labour of love” and says publishers are foolish people, but foolish for what matters.

If your world ends when you do, what makes a life well lived?
Love and family?
Creating something that lasts?
Seeing the world?
Simply being a good person?
Curious to hear how you’d answer this.
@richardalijos discusses his own view with @hadizel.

What if some of the conflicts we think are political or ethnic actually started with something much more personal?
A love story gone wrong.
That question became the foundation of @richardalijos’ City of Memories.
With @hadizel:

Is every conflict really about a border?
Religion. Ethnicity. Tribe. Age. Gender.
@richardalijos argues that conflict often begins when those differences become “us” versus “them.”
With @hadizel:

What if AI didn’t begin with computers?
@richardalijos argues that the book itself was the first form of artificial intelligence.
Do you think that idea actually holds up?
Let’s hear your argument.
