Generative AI will be assisting with almost every human decision in the future. A personalized assistant that has immense context on your life, and all of your written and recorded information, will be an incredible superpower. In your ear at all times, helping you pick out products. Charting your life as it happens, able to craft an intimate biography of anyone at a moments notice. The writers of history, whether true or not, will be AI systems turning complex data from the real world into written data for future models. Just as we wonder what it would have been like to live in the ancient times, with little to no recorded history, and certainly the average life being entirely absent from recordings, we will look back on the modern day, similarly baffled.
Right now, only the great men and women of our age have books written about them, and even social media only captures the small slice of purposeful content we allow. But in the near future, once we plug into the wondering, incredible aspects of generative assistants, there will be no where to hide. Setting aside the fact that sophisticated systems will be able to fairly accurately model our behaviors and thoughts given our backgrounds (and info gleaned from others' experiences), our behaviors will be so obviously and AI-driven that only the hermits will fade into history's unknown chapters. For the rest of us, there will be no place to hide.
