It hadn’t happened in such a long time that I hesitated to respond.
As I was walking through town, a driver pulled up, rolled down his window and said, “is this the way to Irvington?”
We now take for granted that we’re unlikely to ever again be in a car and not know where we are.
It’s not just cars or GPS. Now that we have Perplexity and Claude, our need to ask a person for directions of any kind continues to decrease.
What we need more than ever, though, is help in discovering if we’re asking the right questions and choosing to go to the right place.
“Should I be going to Irvington?” might be a better thing to ask a trusted friend or advisor.
