I'm reading Dune right now. One thing that stands out about the Dune universe is how much humanity changed and evolved because they did not have AI crutches.

And I wonder how long it will take us to look back at "the button" with the same kind of wary attitude we have today about smoking (and that we're starting to have about social media).

So many things are easy and good for us in the short term, but terrible for us in the longer term. Will we get better at spotting such things earlier?
