The road ahead reaches a turning point in 2024

Bill Gates wrote his annual look ahead, and it’s all about AI:

We are just at the beginning of this transition right now. This is an exciting and confusing time, and if you haven’t figured out how to make the best use of AI yet, you are not alone. I thought I would use AI tools for the foundation’s strategy reviews this year, which require reading hundreds of pages of briefing materials that an AI could accurately summarize for me. But old habits are hard to break, and I ended up preparing for them the same way I always do.

On the other hand, I regularly use AI to summarise all the papers – about AI!
