The easiest way to know it's not a foreign adversary is the fact that the US isn't claiming it to be. If it were actually foreign tech, the US would be beating the war drums 24/7 and using this opportunity to double their def

Unrelated but surprised by how little attention Feynman got in Oppenheimer given how enormous his stature would eventually become. Arguably the best mind on the project. edit: *one of the best minds on the project.

My fear isn't that I'll be replaced, it's the technology becoming so good that it'll be kept far out of reach of the common person. I genuinely believe OpenAI knows what a GPT 5+ type world looks like, and they're p

He says he rides a bike, takes public transit, etc. Just don't think I'd write off a location based on a 4 mile commute but I realize its drastically different realities here.

If any VC firms want to hire me to vet investment ideas I'm available. "No, do not give the pizza startup $445 million." Simple.
