If AI undermines human trust, whats real and what's not.. it puts human civilisation at risk?

“Most people think the will to survive is the strongest instinct in human beings, but it isn’t. The strongest instinct is to keep things familiar” Attributed to Virginia Satir

There is a new social media brand I keep reading about in media reports. “X, formally Twitter”.

Knowing about something is very different from knowing how to do it.

Amazing the immense power a word has on thoughts, feelings and behaviour…and then again thoughts…and how messy it gets when more than one person uses and interprets that word…

I predict the emergence “sub internet” cyberspaces “ Intraverses” that guarantees within only human produced content and interactions….real-time conversations and content creation. AI free zo

Wondering : What has more value in life and work Finding a “truth” Finding something “useful”, though not “true” Especially in context of models and science.

Thought: The question is what question you asked to get the right answer. Not is there a right question. The assumption = if your not doing something or getting something then it’s all about how you’re thinking about it.

Thought: Understanding more about something has less value than knowing what to do about it.

Thinking: We only have problems because of how we represent the world in which we live.

I like looking back to see how people saw the future say 10 years ago, and get a grasp on how they thought it would turn out. What they feared and thought would change.

I'd like to create resources (maybe courses, downloads, books etc) for product managers to help them learn and feel confident about researching and producing customer, competitor, market insights and foresight in their projects. Tips?

If there are different solutions for different contexts….and customers constantly encounter different contexts, how do your solutions compete within them? -> Markets, as normally defined are not contexts. They are not even customer centered. They are product centric.

I bucket AI on a continuum..at present 1. Distilling infomation : synthesising 2. Pattern structuring : creating framework 3. Intelligence interaction : conversational engagement 4. Controlling automation : taking decisions

THE MAYBE MINDSET In addition to using “Why…” copiously in my work I have now added “Maybe…” conciously to explore possibility of different routes…withough judgement. The 5 Why’s and the 5 Maybes Always write them down to ponder later.

I’ll just keep writing ;). David Perell

Behavioural science focuses on observable behaviour. It does not give subjective experience, awareness and psychology any part to play in its library of biases . Even systems 1 and 2 = generalised observations. It does not seek to explain, only emperically describe.

I think I distrust linear thinking because I need a “map to give me context and orientation. And create one if others have not made one to reference.
