"Intelligence is one of the greatest human gifts. But all too often a search for knowledge drives out the search for love. This is something else I've discovered for myself very recently. I present it to you as a hypothesis: Intelligence without the ability to give and receive affection leads to mental and moral breakdown, to neurosis, and possibly even psychosis. And I say that the mind absorbed in and involved in itself as a self-centered end, to the exclusion of human relationships, can only lead to violence and pain. "
Reflecting on the ways that LLMs seem to empower individuals and teams to access seemingly limitless intelligence, but the team seems to lose its skills and capabilities for judgement and planning rather quickly after adoption.
Great book.
