Excerpt from a YouTube video (posted Nov 16, 2023) in which the speaker argues that as AI commoditizes intelligence, human connection remains the uniquely valuable asset—especially real-time human-to-human conversation and empathy. The speaker emphasizes that written work or superior analytic clarity can be replicated or improved by machines, but the felt experience of connection cannot.
In the age of the rise of the machines, in the age of commoditization of intelligence, the only asset that remains, at least for the next five to 10 years, the only asset that remains is human connection, right? So the only asset that remains in the work that I do is this conversation. It's not the books that I write. I can write better books than I do. It's not the clarity of thinking that I can bring to a complex topic. I can do that 200 times better, right? It's this. It's human to human. Feeling that I'm connected to you. Feeling that I. That you are like me. You're struggling with similar concepts that you're trying to analyze together. Feeling that human connection that's not going to go away.
