Im definitely on the side that over using AI and using it commercially seems to be bad. On the other hand, it seems like a tech that has huge potential upsides. I’m not sure we can achieve a post scarcity society with all labor being done by humans. This is where I see AI becoming a massive tool. Assuming we can pair it with mechanical means of work, not strictly digital. I know it’s a touchy subject but I want to hear your opinion. As always, if you’re just going to tell me to read more, recommend literature.


Yes, the end goal is to create The Director so we send a traveler back to tell us “THE OPEN AI PROJECT WILL FAIL, HUMANITY WILL BE DOOMED, DO NOT GIVE BIRTH TO SAM ALTMAN”
Idk how we’ll get a T.E.L.L on his mother tho… maybe get a geo-location on the landlines? Maybe the location of the actual bed in the hospital? Just be get a travelers in there and be like “Doc I change my mind, I know I’ve been carrying this for 9 months and its almost full term, but can I get an abortion right now?” 🤭
(Btw: you should really watch Travelers, it’s worth it I promise)
That was a great show
Thanks for the recommendation
