We are living in a brand-new world. Where will it take us? AI creates a new way of thinking: push the button, get the app. Will students be able to research and write? Will they read, or will they obtain their knowledge solely from social media? YouTube is the new book, and TikTok will show you all of the how-tos from cooking to exercising to hairstyling and makeup application.

And I learn about Superbabies being experimented with in the United Kingdom. So, what is a Superbaby? It involves three-way parenting. Many young women who haven’t yet found the right partner, the man they want to have children with, or the man they want to marry, often delay until they reach a certain stage. Or she might want a baby of a certain IQ, a certain height, a particular race, and she chooses from a sperm banks. That woman might decide to freeze her eggs until she’s ready to have a child. So, she freezes her eggs and when she is prepared, she might match it with a sperm donor. She might have a surrogate to impregnate. So that’s a baby with three parents. That’s a new kind. A baby without direct intercourse. Oh well.

Then there is the writer who creates a story, novel, poem, book, or term paper using AI. So, what happens to learning? Is it a loss? I just saw a new type of newspaper story. There was a press conference, but the reporter did not attend. The latest conference was on YouTube. The news reporter wrote the article based on what was seen on YouTube. My friend pointed me to the newspaper article, asking if I was okay with it. I said yes because the print news reporter was not there, but reported exactly what happened. Oh well.

So, what happened to real, authentic writing, where is the fluid
description and emotion.

What will happen to music? Will AI create beats and lyrics, or will we still have emotionally heartfelt songs? Will AI also write blues, country, and western songs? What happens to art? Will there be a new Picasso or just copies or variations? Can AI improve or make inspired artwork? Will it be inspirational without perspiration? Will art become entertainment rather than high art?

The use of digital currencies in everyday life is on the rise, with more businesses, both large and small, now accepting a range of crypto, such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH) or Litecoin (LTC) to purchase everyday purchases including groceries. Soon it will be a common thing to utilize Bitcoin in our grocery stores. Oh well.

A virtual AI simulator can use advanced algorithms and machine learning to create realistic previews of Botox and filler treatments.

Using your smartphone or tablet, you can use the app anywhere at any time by uploading a photo of yourself, and the simulator will apply virtual injections to show potential outcomes. This simulation provides a realistic visual representation of what you might expect from your treatment, allowing you to visualize changes before committing to the procedures.

We lose ourselves to artificiality to the point that the real becomes something else. AI is now creating the “ideal partner.” You can craft your perfect mate with AI, talk to it, and it becomes your friend. We are becoming new people in a new world.

Oh well, I will stick with some of the old-fashioned ways…
