It is July 4, we're all out here celebrating American Independence, right? But I want to think about another kind of AI, and it's American Independence. And there's an idea from Stephen Covey that says that only truly independent people can become interdependent. In other words, they can exist in relationships with the other people with whom they are dependent and create an interdependent that has a higher level of efficacy and just a better deeper kind of relationship. AI is gong to challenge that. America needs to lead the way about what to do next.
