Let’s Go Natural

To The Editor:

Decades ago — how many? four or five? — we learned to avoid certain things in our environment because they were toxic to our biology. Artificial flavors, artificial colors, artificial sweeteners, artificial preservatives. And manufactured concentrated poisons for around the house to keep the “bugs” away. Artificial seemed to equal “not good.” And it made good sense.

Now we are willing to go with artificial intelligence to hyper-augment/ replace our greatest natural evolutionary achievement: natural biological intelligence (NBI).

What could go wrong? We’ll find out, because it will.

Peace & natural pelicans.
