Being able to interface effectively with intelligence technology like LLM will be
the key to future world's innovation and productivity. To be able to interface with
LLM, requires the user to have a basic understanding of the technology itself.
The LLM itself of course has a great understanding about the technology. But
it's still necessary for humans to have a rough picture as well.
Therefore, I think the future of education is surrounded by learning based on this
kind of interface. I think having a good understanding of technology, rather than
knowing how to do every task in every stack of the technology,
will become far
more important in the future.
Essentially, I think
the people who are CEO-like, who have a general understanding
across multiple layers of the company, will better leverage
intelligence technology
than people who specialize in a particular
stack. This will be recursively true in each
individual stack as
well: the people who specialize in a particular stack will better
leverage technology if they also understand different lateral
aspects related to the
stack. Because AI will be so good at
executing a well-described task, the hard part
will be describing
the task itself.
To describe the task requires the person to have an understanding
of the
importance of the task itself. This is why understanding
is far more important.
