a rant. some guilt on how I think i am thinking less everyday, this list is to motivate myself.

1. thinking makes us human. animals clrearly have a limit to their thinking beyond basic survival. you might think machines think too, but machines need to be prompted. humans have the free will to think.
2. thinking is free. no tokens, money, water explicitly. stay hydrated though.
3. we are in a knowledge based economy. the way the economy is structured is why white collar jobs offer more money than blue collar jobs usually. thinking better, hard, on the right problems will push you forward in this knowledge economy.
4. thinking is fun?? writing this is fun, there is something nice about putting your thoughts onto a paper or a screen in this case.
5. thinking is going to be more and more rare. at least thinking on the correct stuff. with AI, we are outsourcing thinking, you would assume that humans will then spend time on creating, art, improving health etc, wrong!! know that we are monke brains with a lot of stimuli avalable on tiny screens that fit in our palm.
