Invisible AI

AI is becoming part of everyday life, often so quietly that we barely notice it. This week I’ve been wondering what happens when a technology becomes normal before we’ve really stopped to think about what it means.

Did We Ever Learn Any Literacy?

We often talk about computer literacy, digital literacy, media literacy, and now AI literacy as if they were skills we learned and completed. But did we ever truly master them, or are we simply continuing to adapt as technology changes around us?
