Then-vice president Joe Biden once said “it’s easy being vice president, you don’t have to do anything”. Others who have held the office have spoken of it in similar terms. Yet, in recent decades, the vice president has come to take an influential role on certain policy issues, and particularly on foreign policy. Typically, a vice president can serve as an advisor and confidant to the president, and be charged with overseeing particular issues, as Kamala Harris initially was for the Biden administration’s immigration response. Prior to her, George W Bush’s vice president, Dick Cheney, led much of the administration’s efforts related to the War on Terror; then-Vice President Joe Biden led critical Obama administration’s foreign policy initiatives ranging from Latin America to Iraq; and Vice President Mike Pence made trips reassuring US allies and partners overseas and delivered speeches during the Trump administration that gave strategic clarity to the administration’s actions. On no account should the position of vice president be seen that way during campaigning, just because one running for the presidential position might, and will be, beaten if the vice president candidate is not convincing enough, especially if that is the sort of politician who used to abhor the current running mate.

Today our supposedly revolutionary advancements in artificial intelligence are indeed cause for both concern and optimism. OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Bard and Microsoft’s Sydney are marvels of machine learning. Roughly speaking, they take huge amounts of data, search for patterns in it and become increasingly proficient at generating statistically probable outputs – such as seemingly humanlike language and thought. These programs have been hailed as the first glimmers on the horizon of artificial general intelligence – that long-prophesied moment when mechanical minds surpass human brains not only quantitatively in terms of processing speed and memory size but also qualitatively in terms of intellectual insight, artistic creativity besides every other distinctively human faculty. Whereas that day may come, one should be allowed its dawn is not yet breaking, contrary to what can be read in hyperbolic headlines and reckoned by injudicious investments. The human mind is a surprisingly efficient system that operates with small amounts of information. Of course, any human-style explanation is not necessarily correct; we are fallible. Hence this is part of what it means to think: to be right, it must be possible to be wrong.
