The Understanding Problem Of The Future
Why Today’s AI Will Not Be The Savior That Many People Are Claiming
Written by a human, for humans, always.
I’m not anti-AI.
I understand and see that there are great use cases for AI.
But there is something that I am seeing that is going to become a problem for us...
Or perhaps...
Opportunity for a few.
What people see with AI is that it can look at a lot of information...
Process it at some level...
And produce an approximation of a response with varying levels of “success”.
Now, some people make the claim that AI will become a savior of sorts...
That with access to all the information, it will be able to see things we cannot...
And therefore, it will make people significantly better and faster at what they do.
It is a great sales pitch...
But there is something fundamental that is missing from the equation here...
Which is the Understanding Problem.
There are two aspects that become important in the Understanding Problem...
The AI itself (at least today’s versions of AI)...
And the user(s) of the AI.
Based on today’s technology, we can see one thing very clearly.
AI does not actually “understand” what it is producing.
It reviews trends and then “approximates” something that looks “about” right.
But it clearly does not always get it right.
That is why we have issues like AI Hallucinations and the Piss Average Problem...
Not to mention how it does not understand human intentions...
What this reveals is that AI really does not “understand” what it is doing...
Which is a risk in many ways...
Especially in fields where human lives are “literally” at risk.
But there is the other side of this issue too...
The humans who are using AI.
Many people “believe” that if they use AI, it will help them get ahead.
To a degree, that may be true.
If you can produce more information faster, you may be able to appear like an expert in something.
But here is the problem.
If you are utilizing AI to do everything for you...
You do not really learn.
You are turning yourself into a “straw man” of expertise...
One that will crumble the second someone actually approaches you in reality and asks real questions.
When you fail to actually “understand” these subjects deeply...
Then it is only a matter of time before people question your legitimacy.
We are already seeing this in the Western Medical Industry, where many doctors are “trained” on information...
But have never actually read the actual research that went into what they know.
Sadly, they have been influenced by junk marketing research in many areas of health...
And when people question them about these areas of research, they really do not have good answers...
Because they do not “actually” understand the research that was involved.
Now, this is not an attack on the actual doctors who usually are wonderful people with the best of intentions...
But it is an attack on the establishment that trains these doctors “not” to ask questions and simply “trust” that the establishment “always” is right.
This is not a new problem, though.
It is a problem that has existed over the last century...
And which has become undeniable in the face of the significant and growing health problems that western medicine is both unable to solve and unable to prevent.
An organization can only say “we do not know” so long before people begin to question its legitimacy and seek alternatives.
Now imagine that same problem...
But happening at a significantly wider scale...
In a significantly increasing number of professional industries.
People being trained by AI that do not really understand...
Being told that the AI should provide correct information...
While these people, simultaneously, do not actually understand their work deeply.
It is a theoretical utopia...
That becomes a real trap that is doomed for real exploitation.
When the systems we have do not truly understand...
And the people who work within those systems do not truly understand...
We begin to have a significant understanding problem.
Who do you turn to when you have a real and significant problem...
But no one actually understands anything?
The AI doesn’t seem to understand...
And the humans using AI do not understand.
Who can you trust?
The answer becomes...
You can only trust the people who actually understand.
This becomes the opportunity for the future.
Only those individuals who can demonstrate that they truly understand...
Will become the individuals who become the most sought after in any industry.
If you can prove to people...
Not just that you can access information...
But you actually understand what the information means...
Not in theory, but in reality...
You become undeniable.
The gap between those who are dependent on tech and those who are not will only grow larger.
Why?
Most people are lazy by nature, and I do not say that to be mean.
An aspect of how we, as humans, are designed is to seek homeostasis.
A balance where we use less bodily energy, Mg-ATP, than we spend.
What happens for most people...
Is that when things become easier...
They devote less energy to those things because “something else” can do it for them.
This is not an inherently bad thing...
But it becomes problematic when people need true understanding...
And no one has it because they have not used the time and energy required to “actually” understand things.
Someone who can use a tool is useful...
But someone who understands what the tool can create is significantly more valuable.
It does not take a genius to understand how to use a hammer to put in a nail.
It takes someone with understanding to know where a nail should or should not go and for what purposes to get specific results in the least amount of time with the greatest long-term results.
This is the type of gap that we already have in our world...
Which is only going to become wider as AI becomes capable of more things (assuming today’s version can become more capable, which is a different conversation).
The future will require individuals with true sageful understanding...
And they will be the most valuable individuals in the future.
