Yeah, I think that makes sense.

I mean, I would say, yeah, I'm not saying that anything text is trivial, right?

I do think that code is like, it's pretty structured.

Text is maybe a lot more flowery and there's a lot more like entropy in text, I would say.

I don't know how else to put it.

And also, I mean, code is hard.

And so people sort of feel quite empowered by LLMs, even from like simple kind of knowledge.

I basically, I don't actually know that I have a very good answer.

I mean, obviously like text makes it much, much easier maybe is maybe why I put it, but it doesn't mean that all text is trivial.

I guess I see it as like a progression of automation in society, right?

And again, like extrapolating the trend of computing.

I just feel like there will be a gradual automation of a lot of things, and superintelligence will be sort of like the extrapolation of that.

So I do think we expect more and more autonomous entities over time that are doing a lot of the digital work, and then eventually even the physical work, probably some amount of time later.

But basically, I see it as just automation.

Well, but some of the things that people do is invent new things, which I would just put into the automation, if that makes sense.

I mean, it is fundamentally automation, but I mean, it will be like extremely foreign.

I do think it will look really strange because like you mentioned, we can run all of this on a computer cluster, et cetera, and much faster and all this thing.

Yeah.

I mean, maybe some of the scenarios, for example, that I start to get, like, nervous about with respect to when the world looks like that is this kind of, like, gradual loss of control and understanding of what's happening.

And I think that's actually the most likely outcome, probably, is that there will be a gradual loss of understanding of... And we'll gradually layer all this stuff everywhere, and there'll be fewer and fewer people who understand it, and that there will be a sort of this, like, scenario of a gradual loss of control and understanding of what's happening.
