It is to these distinctive capabilities that our species owes its dominant position. If machine brains surpassed human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could become extremely powerful - possibly beyond our control.

Mientras tú sigues probando prompts al azar, alguien en tu mismo sector acaba de automatizar el 40% de su trabajo. No tiene más talento que tú. Tiene un sistema. Y tú todavía no. La inteligencia artificial ya no es una promesa del futuro. Es la línea que separa a quienes multiplican resultados de quienes se quedan atrás repitiendo tareas que una máquina hace en segundos. Y lo peor no es quedarse atrás—es esa sensación de estar rodeado de herramientas poderosas sin saber cuál tocar primero, ni cómo, ni para qué. Nada encaja. Nada se convierte en un resultado real.
