A metaphor for humanity and AI
"There is a comparison you can make when, unknowingly, unwillingly, you go from having no influence to having a great influence. When an only child suddenly becomes an older brother or sister at the age of three, it must be jarring. You aren’t old by any means, but your younger sibling begins to copy you, follow you, and model themselves after you. You are now, and will forever be, older. You, at the age of three, have a responsibility now; you are a role model now. At this moment, this is happening to everyone, all over the world. We are all parents, siblings, role models, setting an example for the most powerful children there may ever be. I’m of course talking about artificial intelligence (AI). We are leading by example, setting the moral code for their moldable consciences. How do you think we are doing?"
