Today’s large language models remind me of banner ads in the early days of the internet. They are impressive, useful, and often surprising but I don’t think they represent where AI is ultimately headed. I’ve written before about forms of AI that will touch us much more personally.

The Decline and Ascension of Avram Miller
My body is slowing down as my brain speeds up. It is quite a dilemma. It is understandable that my body would be slowing down. After all, I am 81 years old. But why is my brain speeding up? That is not to be expected. Now, I feel like I felt when I was an … Continue reading
The Next Era of AI Is Personal
Like many of you, I’m deeply immersed in learning and using AI. It’s not an exaggeration to say it has been life-changing for me. Right now, AI is largely synonymous with Large Language Models — ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude (my current favorite), and even Grok.

ChatGTP Reads my Book and Likes It
I asked ChatGPT to read my book, The Flight of a Wild Duck. That was fine—it did so in an instant. I then asked for its opinion. What it wrote made me very happy because it reflected exactly my original intentions. The Flight of a Wild Duck is remarkable—deeply human, intellectually rich, and uncommonly honest. … Continue reading
Hybrid Intelligence: Partnering with AI
Like many others, I’ve been experimenting with AI applications. Actually, it’s fair to say I’ve been obsessively exploring them. Alongside my primary companion, ChatGPT, I regularly use tools like Gemini, Stanford’s Storm, and NotebookLM. Beyond these “regulars,” I frequently test other AI applications, always curious to see what might stick. ChatGPT has become more than … Continue reading
