10 Unpopular Truths I Have Learned About AI

by Larry Chiang on February 26, 2025

10 Unpopular Truths I Have Learned About Artificial Intelligence
Number 10
AI is approximately a 24 year-old with an IQ of 90. But with almost unlimited time.
If you’re below, the bar, IQ 92 AI is coming for your job
If you’re above the bar and also above zero dollars, AI is your bitch
✅Number nine
Why is being above zero dollars important?
Being below zero dollars or at zero dollars means you cannot leverage
Anything multiplied by zero is zero
Therefore, if you’re above dollar zero, AI can help you
If you’re below zero dollars, AI is going to screw you
✅ number eight
An unpopular truth about artificial intelligence is that it makes the people who ask smart questions incredibly smart smarter
Inside baseball is the concept of, “prompting“
If you do not train the model, then the model is training you
✅ number seven
The algorithm
So while people are doomscrolling, the algorithm is programming your brain
If you thought the algorithm was bad at programming your brain, wait until you become reliant on AI
I always thought that AI would be able to M&A 100% of people’s brains. It turns out just because an AI can pass a Turing test does not make singular AI as smart as every human on the planet.
✅ number six
Reading is the superpower
AI can read very well. 
AI can summarize at the level of a 24 year-old NC State grad who’s working as a consultant at a big 5 five consulting firm
Here’s the problem.
Few can read the nine paragraphs that Grok 3 GROK – three produces
✅Number five
When we paste copy without reading, curating and vetting
You have now become reliant upon AI

Drawing things
Having AI draw things for you is absolutely amazing
