I asked ChatGPT the same exact question and here’s what I got:


Here’s a thoughtful list of the top 10 things humanity should know—a blend of timeless truths, scientific understanding, and practical wisdom that could serve both individual and collective well-being:

1. The Earth Is Our Only Home (for now)

We live on a fragile planet with finite resources. Climate change, biodiversity loss, and environmental degradation threaten our future. Stewardship of Earth isn’t optional—it’s survival.

2. Everything Is Connected

From atoms to ecosystems, individuals to nations, all things are interconnected. What affects one part of a system often affects the whole. Understanding this helps cultivate empathy, responsibility, and foresight.

3. Science Is a Tool, Not a Belief

Science is humanity’s best method for understanding reality. It’s self-correcting, evidence-based, and always evolving. It doesn’t answer every question, but it has saved and extended billions of lives.

4. Critical Thinking Is a Survival Skill

Truth isn’t always obvious. We are prone to bias, manipulation, and misinformation. The ability to question assumptions, analyze evidence, and revise beliefs is essential for both freedom and progress.

5. Love and Cooperation Built Civilization

Competition plays a role, but cooperation is what makes families, cities, societies, and peace possible. Empathy, compassion, and shared purpose are not weaknesses—they’re the foundation of human flourishing.

6. History Repeats When Forgotten

The past is full of lessons about power, injustice, resistance, and renewal. Ignoring history invites avoidable suffering. Learning from it offers a better path forward.

7. Technology Changes Faster Than Ethics

From AI to genetics, human innovation outpaces regulation and reflection. The tools we create can empower or destroy, depending on how wisely we use them.

8. Death Is Inevitable, but Meaning Is Not

We are mortal. Life is short. But meaning isn’t something we find—it’s something we create, through relationships, service, creativity, and growth.

9. Diversity Is Strength, Not a Threat

Human cultures, languages, and identities are expressions of our shared humanity. Diversity expands our capacity to adapt, learn, and solve problems.

10. We’re Still Evolving—Socially and Spiritually

Humanity is a work in progress. While we’ve made great strides, we still have far to go in justice, equity, sustainability, and peace. There is no final form—we are the builders of our future.

Not to get political, but large employers should have to pay in the average equivalent of state, federal, and SS taxes of the employees the robots are replacing.

For how long?
How about large employers that use computers?
Conveyor belts?
Nail guns?
etc.

Are computers, belts, and nail guns, helping employees or replacing them?

Certainly those things reduce the number of humans needed, same as robots.

Nobody's going to scale back AI. We need to be working hard to expand every available clean energy source possible.

Wind, solar, geothermal, fission, and of course fusion.

No. Fuck AI, and honestly fuck anyone who uses it on purpose. If you use it, fuck you man.

There is no avoiding it, unfortunately. Anybody who doesn't learn it and use it will be left behind. They'll no longer be competitive.

Even if a country outlaws it, other countries will pass them by.

There is no putting that cat back in the bag.

This would be true if using AI made anything better than just paying someone to do it. But AI is a net negative on efficiency and cost effectiveness in businesses. So no. No it is not inevitable; you just want AI to happen.

I don't have any preference on AI, unless it makes things better. But, it will absolutely make things better if it keeps improving the way it has been.

It is going to do things that the vast majority of people can't or don't want to do. And it will do them better than most people can do.

As such, AI could eliminate scarcity.

The question is if we will make sure everyone can benefit from those immense gains.

I am certain that the wealthy will not want that. They will want to consolidate the benefit amongst themselves.

Should we allow AI?
How much are we going to charge for AI?
Could we even stop it if we wanted to?

These aren't the questions we should be asking, IMO.

The question we should be asking is:
Are we going to allow the wealthy to continue holding us down?

Apple Intelligence became an unnecesary annoyance for me on both my iPhone and Macbook. I tried it out for a while but quickly became a pain in the ass for me and my uses, so I disabled it on both devices.

As far as "Artificial Intelligence" in general, I much more prefer the real thing. And usually when I see the term "next generation" anything, it typically means that we're a "generation" away from getting the bugs out of it.

Agreed. I think Apple quietly stopped doing any actual generative AI rollout once they realized the hit to miss ratio on answers from an LLM would never be high enough for grown adults with expectations.

For me, Apple has lost it's common sense approach ever since Tim Cook took over for Steve Jobs...don't get me wrong, I'll never go back to using a Windows based system, but again, Apple has lost a step.

Tim is a decent functionary but he has no real vision. It’s obvious he never did acid in college.
