Exclusive: World leaders just decided that the next step in AI is augmenting humans

While it's fun to consider all of the fanciful things that advanced AI systems could allow us to do, we can't ignore the very real value in the seeming mundane systems of the present. These systems, if fully realized, could free us from hours of drudgery and allow us to truly spend our time on tasks we deem worthwhile. Imagine no lines at the DMV. Imagine filing your taxes in seconds. This vision is possible, and in the coming months and years, the world's leaders are planning to nudge us down that road ever faster.
