The people who can come up with the "right answer" will lose out the most from now on - the "too rational people" will be most disadvantaged in the AI era.
The person who arrives at the correct answer rationally is at the biggest disadvantage.
Until now, society has valued those who can rationally arrive at the correct answer. In school, rank was determined by the number of correct answers, and in companies, those who could achieve results efficiently were promoted. Smartly, rationally, and taking the shortest path. This was the least disadvantageous way to live.
But with the advent of AI, that rule is over. AI is faster, cheaper, and more accurate than humans at finding the right answer. The "rational answer" that took you three days, AI can provide in three seconds.
Herein lies the biggest pitfall. The real threat in the AI era isn't "losing to AI." It's "everyone coming up with the same answers as AI."
- The person who arrives at the correct answer rationally is at the biggest disadvantage.
- When everyone arrives at the same correct answer, that correct answer becomes trash.
- The wiser a person is, the more they deliberately choose the "strange path."
- Looking back from 10 years from now, the definition of "correct" will have changed.

When everyone arrives at the same correct answer, that correct answer becomes trash.
Everyone applies for the same "best place to work." Everyone deposits into the same "best investment." Everyone copies the same "best marketing method."
At that moment, what was once the right answer is no longer the right answer. Job opportunities become highly competitive. Investments have already appreciated. Marketing methods are used by everyone and offer no differentiation.
In other words, once everyone has fully embraced rationality, it turns into mere garbage. This is the cruel rule of the AI era.
The wiser a person is, the more they deliberately choose the "strange path."
Of course, this is not about "discarding reason." That would simply be a lack of planning. And if an irrational decision, which discards reason, is itself rational, then it's not irrational. There's no point in endlessly looping through that infinite circular argument, so let's just overlook it.
In other words, it's about whether you can make a conscious choice to deviate from rationality, even after perfectly understanding it. If everyone else is doing it, you don't. If it's easy money, you don't choose it. If it's said to be efficient, you don't go for it. I want to reconfirm the meaning of constantly holding that perspective, to the point of such extremity.
"Be wise, be foolish." I believe this is an important strategy that will work in the coming era.
Looking back from 10 years from now, the definition of "correct" will have changed.
"Correct" is only correct at this moment. In 10 years, half of what is correct now might be wrong. In 100 years, it will likely be unrecognizable.
The correct answer moves with time. In other words, I want you to recognize that you might be clinging to the illusion that "there is a fixed, absolute, true answer."
Beyond reason, the future answer lies. So, let's be wise, and be foolish.
