Gary’s Q&A

Listener question & Gary’s response · Transcript passage

Kevin O’Keefe on Facebook asks, It’s a simple but complex question. In the age of AI how can people make money off of just being curious and learning?

I’m not sure why learning and curiosity are things you need to make money from. Curiosity is, by its nature, something exhibited because you are interested in something. If your goal is just making money, then it isn’t real curiosity. There is certainly nothing wrong with learning something to improve your employability. That being said, I don’t think that AI is cause for doom and gloom, at least not for people who are willing to learn. Artificial Intelligence might very well replace many white-collar jobs that are busywork, but there will always be a need for people who are knowledgeable and learned. Also, AI can be used to turbocharge your learning. Some of the initial research I’m seeing on the use of AI as an educational aide has been simply astounding.
