How do you contend with the following possibilities?:
-That shortened feedback loops accord developing creative talents less time for reinforcement of core concepts necessary to later breakthroughs? For instance, if (as will almost certainly be the case before long) as a young songwriter I have an AI music tool complete a progression for me, I am spared the recursive 'lot of work' phase that, while leading to inevitable frustrations, can also lead to the sort of independent problem solving that produces style (1st degree), and creative breakthroughs that defy common order (2nd degree)
-The fact that most solutions that allow for greater/more convenient automation of information retrieval (e.g. having the collected knowledge works of humanity on your desktop, then subsequently on your phone) seem by all measures to have devalued the personal acquisition of information, instead of increasing people's general ability to take information on board and do interesting things with it. If you can't retain knowledge you can't, consciously or subconsciously, synthesise it etc.
Most interesting Nico.
