The new power of generative AI is all around us: our phones, watches, computers, and digital assistants boast the ability to summarize texts and lectures, produce papers and speeches, and create images tailored to our every whim.
While technological innovation is rarely a matter of purely good or bad, the very way in which AI in short order has seamlessly been inserted into everyday life means we have scarcely begun to become mindful of its consequences, including its unintended ones.
In keeping with ³Ô¹ÏÍø’s commitment to the search for wisdom, the task of this essay competition is to meditate on AI and its relation to the human: How should we respond to the increasing presence of generative AI in human life?
