On Tokyo subways, you see people absorbed in their smartphones. What they are doing are different, depending on the individuals. After all, smartphones are supercomputers in your palm. You can do anything.
Yesterday I was reading Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's tale. At other times I was discussing quantum mechanics and information thermodynamics with ChatGPT. When I needed a break, I browsed X and posted some thoughts.
A smartphone is the gateway to a multitude of different worlds, and even if we share the same space on the subway, each of us could be exploring entire different universes.
You have the multiverse in your palm. I don't know what my fellow travelers were doing with their smartphones yesterday on the Tokyo subways.
