Mind, Incompetence, and the Rise of AI: Navigating Mental Clarity in a Measured World

Mind, Incompetence, and the Rise of AI: Navigating Mental Clarity in a Measured World In our previous blogs, we have covered the aspects of the mind, every person deals with, in their day to day life. As we move on to more general open ended topics/concepts, for a single point of view there may be contrary, supporting and thousand other point of views.

In the journey of life certain relationships we are born with like the parents sibling's, certain we take on a few (life partner, friends, mentors) and a few others we create (children's of course). More than any other relationship, there are two entities which remain with us always till the end, one is the body and the other mind. A few choose to look at what kind of relationship should I have with the two entities that are with us always.  What type of relation to maintain with the mind ? Its personal In today's age people prefer shooting themselves in the foot rather than letting the other person do it, mind you in both cases the pain is the same, the only saving grace here is people...
