And so
The thought is, you know, could AI accelerate all of this?
And could we really cure cancer?
Could we really cure Alzheimer's disease?
Could we really cure heart disease?
And, you know, more subtly, some of the more psychological afflictions that people have, you know,
Depression, bipolar, you know, could we do something about these to the extent that they're biologically based, which, you know, I think they are at least in part.
And, you know, I go through this argument here.
Well, how fast could it go?
Right.
If we have these intelligences out there who could do just about anything.
A country, have 100 million of them.
Each a little, trained a little different or trying a different problem.
There's benefit in diversification and trying things a little differently, but yes.
You don't have to have the full machine god.
And indeed, there are places where I cast doubt on whether the machine god, you know, would be that much more effective at these things than the 100 million geniuses, right?
I have this concept called, you know, the diminishing returns to intelligence, which is, you know, there's like, you know, economists talk about, you know, the marginal productivity of land and labor.
We've never thought about the marginal productivity of intelligence.
But if I look at some of these problems in biology, like at some level, you just have to interact with the world.
At some level, you just have to try things.
