I recently sat down with Sam Li, a close friend from college who meaningfully grapples with questions of mindfulness and tech in his creative, professional, and personal life.
Also having experienced in university that classroom work doesn’t directly measure my critical thinking abilities, I wonder what would be evidence of critical thinking, in and out of the classroom. Let’s suppose that AI can think, would they be able to critically think? While so many of us (humans) struggle to develop informed opinions of political issues, it seems that AI can develop informed opinions as they’re willing to educate us and are comfortable with being told “no you’re completely wrong.”
Awesome work!

Really great and interesting read!
