Smarter AI also requires better ways of thinking with it
AI can now help with writing, analysis, creative work, learning, and increasingly difficult problems. The next challenge is not simply making it more capable or work faster, but deciding clearly what people want to build with it. The printing press, the internet, and smartphones each created new possibilities while forcing people to develop a healthier balance with the new tools.
AI needs special care because it can shape not only what people do, but also how they think, learn, create, analyze, and make decisions. Choosing an AI tool is therefore only part of the issue; people must also decide where the tool should help and where their own should remain in control.

- More power and faster are not enough by themselves.
