Saves time.

Of course, it remains a significant challenge for Chatty 4 to make something intellectually insightful out of it.

"Here's a summarized list of the key points from the Bridgewater Associates article "Assessing the Implications of a Productivity Miracle":

1. AI and ML Impact: AI/ML tools are reducing the marginal cost of cognitive tasks, potentially leading to a productivity miracle.

2. Bottlenecks and Opportunities*: Significant challenges in using AI/ML for complex tasks exist, but these are increasingly surmountable.

3. Business Impact: Low or zero marginal cost in white-collar work creates significant opportunities and risks for profits, influenced by a company's pricing power.

4. Economic Shifts: AI advancements could reshape spending and economic activities, similar to historical labor distribution shifts.

5. Potential for Explosive Growth: If AI can automate innovation itself, it could lead to unprecedented economic growth.

6. Artificial General Intelligence (AGI): Achieving AGI, which can automate diverse intellectual tasks, is necessary for the most transformative impacts but remains a significant challenge."
