据说人上岁数了最重要的标志是越来越喜欢回忆过去,然而我可能是个例外,随着年岁增长,我对未来越来越感兴趣。
这几天带着孩子们出行,路上阅读思考以及和我老婆交谈的主题都是「我们的未来会怎样」、「孩子们的将来会怎样」。
我老婆总是拿「儿孙自有儿孙福」来回应我,让我不用想太多,孩子们的将来肯定比我们这一代更好。
真的吗?
我很怀疑。
小时候听成方圆唱过一首歌,叫《Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be)》,中文名好像就叫《将来会怎样》,也许是《该怎样就怎样》,歌词是:
When I was just a little boy(成方圆翻唱时改成了 little girl)
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be happy, will I be rich
Here's what she said to me
Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be
When I was just a little brat, i asked my teacher
What will i be?
Will i be a mess, will i have success
This is what she said to me
Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be
When i grew up and fell in love
I asked my darlin' what should we be?
Will i be happy, will you be sad?
This is what you said to me
Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be
歌的意思是未来不可知,将来无法预见,该怎样就怎样,没必要想太多。
我可能是太贪心了,也许是过度忧虑,总想在工具趁手、脑力足够的时候多想想未来,多为自己和家人的未来做充分准备。
上周我和我师傅通了俩小时的电话,提到如何运用AI来帮助我提高工作效率,尤其是要不要让孩子们也学习使用这个新工具,提高学习效率。
想当年我有一段时间过度依赖Google,被我师傅警告说:“你正在变得「Google Smart」,这是抄近路,短期内也许获益,长期则对源自批判性思维的真正智慧有巨大伤害。”
这一课对我来说非常重要,所以当我开始用AI的时候,一直用我师傅给我的警告来提醒自己,不能代替自己的思考。
