Please don't take it personally but this is a good example of why it's already out of control, and we won't be able to keep up. We're still planning our life in terms of which college we should attend, jobs, careers, salary, or even retirement, while it's painfully obvious that all those concepts are about to lose all their meaning soon. Another nice example is teachers trying to find out ways to identify if the students have "cheated" by using AI in their essays. We're embarrassingly trying to make sense of the new paradigm, using the thought patterns that were only useful in the old one. We look like Coyote from the cartoon, who is still running unaware that he's about to fall down the cliff.
