    @BrianRoemmeleEducation in the Digital Age: Alan Kay 1998. In the age of AI and the Internet never has there been a time in history where you can have the knowledge of the world at your fingertips. Alan points out that the printing press only liberated 20 out of 100 to be knowable. Today sadly it is about the same or less. As AI “does our thinking” what is the AI model you trust? I say there always should be a local AI that looks out for you. I call this The Intelligence Amplifier. And it will work with any other AI on your behalf and on its behalf. It is vital to understand our moment. We are becoming are already The Amnesia Generation but rapidly becoming The Lobotomy Generation. We won’t even know to think that we forgot. Watch this wisdom from across time. See how it applies to us.
