More than one friend has asked me for my thoughts on the "Qianwen APP." I told them I have no interest in trying it; its ability to do everything doesn't exceed what I imagined three years ago. Had it appeared a year ago, I probably would have been very excited.
However, over this past year, my perspective has changed significantly: perhaps humans need answers and "completed tasks," but they need the right to choose, the joy of indecision, and the experience of the process even more.
I originally intended to write a lot, but it would just be an effort to support my own conclusion. Since I have a viewpoint that could very well be wrong and will certainly face many differing opinions, let’s keep it simple.
If we hand over the right to choose—along with the bittersweet pain of indecision regarding our basic needs—to AI, what do we have left?
If all our work can be completed by an app on its own, what goals do we have left? Other than the meager earnings we chase all day?
The human world and the AI world are two different worlds. Those needs that are instantly "annihilated" in the AI world might not be real human needs at all.
Perhaps a combination of numerous "annihilation points" is the "next iPhone" everyone is waiting for.
Clearly, it hasn't appeared yet, and it might not even appear that soon.
But, at the very least, it's not what the current Qianwen APP looks like.
