Our ancestors were silenced by systems they could not control. We can either be the generation that watched the water rise and wash away our identity, or the one that built the high ground for those yet to come. We may feel overwhelmed by the speed of the exponential curve, but we are responsible for the systems we build today. We can either be the generation that watched the water rise, or the one that built the high ground. The exponential curve does not wait for the hesitant.

The future of truth may well depend on our ability to wield these AI tools more effectively than those who seek to deceive us—and on our collective willingness to prioritize verified information over comfortable fictions.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
