Today's Stoic quote is from Zeno of Citium, who is considered to be the founder of Stoicism.
_ “Nothing is more hostile to a firm grasp on knowledge than self-deception.”_
― Zeno of Citium

Sometimes I wonder if A.I. will be the tool that helps us out of the destructive cycle that we find ourselves in. The trouble, I think, has always been that individuals don't recognize the depth of the problem until we hit middle age.
AI has the potential to be our saviour or our downfall.
