Tell all your friends about the "panoptic computronium cathedral"™. Its creation would accelerate all of these developments and others that no one can even imagine. All I need is $80B.

Add some AI into the mix and the ubermensch will be here in no time. Imagine people who are their own mothers/fathers and selected in an optimal way by AI to advance the cause of humanity and their colonization of the stars. Truly marv

Sir, your comment breaks the site guidelines. Do better. Sam Altman is an entrepreneurial hero and not a cult leader. He deserves more reverence and respect.

Great essay. You can tell from the writing Sam Altman is just a great person who cares about making things people want instead of just enriching himself at the expense of everyone else.

All digital content is currently managed by AI (search engines, social media, recommendation algorithms, etc). Even analog books will be eventually digitized and fed into AI. So there is no circle to square here, your perspective is inconsi

How exactly do you get rid of 3M? They make so many chemicals necessary for modern consumer products that they are an irrevocable part of the global economy. There is no substitute for 3M. I wouldn't be surprised if they actually suppl

The AGI takes care of that as well. The tubes are reconfigurable so you can't be where you're not supposed to be according to the AGI's plan. Even if you're chatting the tube will suck you up and transfer you to the requ

So are TensorFlow and PyTorch. All AI/ML frameworks have to translate high-level tensor programs into executable artifacts for the given hardware and they're all given away for free because there is no way to make money with them.
