AI

Over the past year I've revamped my diet, learned to cook, hit fitness prs, helped me make proactive health steps, learned a ton of tech, revamped my living situation, etc.

Yes, I do realize that AI is and will cause a lot of bad things and overall might end up as a net negative. But for me personally over the past year, it has by far been more good than bad and had a strong contribution toward my happiness.
