Well roared, tiger pack lead

Also helpful to rethink ones position, sometimes.

I never thought I'd be saying this, for example, but I will:

a unicorn exists in real life because of the drawings, legens, stories and everything. It stands for some values that we can not put onto any other object. Or that object would be different. But a unicorn as a subject, that does not exist. Right.

Deep comment Simon. I'll have to think more about what it means that unicorns simultaneously exist (in our mind) and don't exist (in nature).

I have been saying before that AI is a forklift for the mind, and one big reason is exactly what you're saying, Rich, that is allows us better access to knowledge in the world, augmenting knowledge in the head. The two have always co-existed, but knowledge in the world becomes more actionable when transformed by AI into specific advice for your current situation. This is a big reason AI-driven answers are superior to search engines, see https://jakobnielsenphd.substack.com/p/seo-is-dead
