3. Women have more common sense, in MHO.

We also, I believe, sense danger better. I think that comes from motherhood and survival. We’ve been navigating the danger zone forever. We may or may not be smarter. But, we think about the dangers of things ahead more than men. That’s just my opinion and I may get slammed for saying it. But, we have lots of practice. I’m suspicious of it all and worry that “we don’t know what we don’t know”. I think AI is a dangerous road unless thought through carefully. I’ve never used it. I know it can be useful. But, we need to be damn clear why we’re using it and what the implications are.
