"I think the development of AI will probably end up being a detriment to mythology, ritual, and learning. Already we are seeing gross simplifications of incredibly complex fields of study. Just because an AI chatbot can explain something complex to you in simple terms doesn't mean you've got it. Just because it has the potential to translate a language you don't speak into English doesn't mean you now understand what is truly being said. I feel like AI is, in this regard, a detriment to humanity."
