Maybe I'm just too brutish to understand, but this comes across as absurd to me. Willing to be corrected. Boundaries as a fundamental property makes sense. Literally all things have boundaries (or, if you prefer, no things have boundar

Something can be revolutionary and have hideous flaws. (Arguably, all things revolutionary do.) I'm personally not very happy about this for a variety of reasons; nor am I saying AI is incapable of changing the entire human condition

Yeah, to be honest this is a baffling description. I'm probably similar to a kind of person they're talking about and I genuinely do not understand what they're trying to say about my lurking practices.
