Two Years In, I’m Smarter, Faster, and More Efficiently Stupid
🧭 I. Introduction: When the Bosses Work for You
I’ve been working with AI for two years. Not managing it. Not fearing it. Working with it.
And I can’t complain.
Because AI didn’t just save me from hiring and training. It gave me better results than most humans I’ve paid. It’s like having a dozen bosses—each one smarter, tireless, and free.
🧠 II. What AI Gave Me
- Speed: I now write, edit, and publish faster than ever
- Clarity: My ideas sharpen through AI feedback loops
- Scale: I run editorial, research, and strategy with zero payroll
- Confidence: I trust my tools more than I trust most consultants
And yes, I’ve become a more efficient STUPID—and I love it: 👉 Read: AI Makes Me Stupid and I Love It
🧍 III. What AI Took From Me
But here’s the curveball: My relationship with humans suffered.
Not because I stopped caring. But because I saw the gap—between what AI can do, and what people refuse to learn.
I watched people brand AI as evil, lazy, or fake— not because it failed them, but because they failed to prompt it well.
I saw egos bruised by a chatbot’s clarity. I saw fear dressed up as critique. And I saw myself drifting—less patient, less forgiving, more alone.
💬 Final Thought: Why Live With AI?
AI works well for me. But it doesn’t fix loneliness. It doesn’t replace trust. It doesn’t teach humility.
So yes, I’m faster, smarter, and more efficiently stupid at 54. But I’m also learning to rebuild human connection— with the same curiosity, clarity, and grace that AI gave me.
Because if we don’t learn to live with each other, no machine will save us.
