I would sleep better. I would be able to save money. I would give more to charity and subscribe to more magazines, buy more books. I could afford to say no to some paying work so I could spend more time on my writing.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.
