And then the other thing is our extreme adaptability.

I think it's going to be okay in terms of there's going to be a lot of change, but look where we are now without effectively our hunter-gatherer brains.

How is it we can, you know, we can cope with the modern world, right?

flying on planes, doing podcasts, you know, playing computer games and virtual simulations.

I mean, it's already mind-blowing given that our mind was developed for, you know, hunting buffaloes on the tundra.

And so I think this is just the next step.

And it's actually kind of interesting to see how society has already adapted to this mind-blowing AI technology we have today already.

It's sort of like, oh, I talk to chatbots.

Totally fine.

Not to the level that you can do it, Lex, I don't think.

All the things that are deeply human.

Thank you very much, Lex.

I think it's important that it's not just a hundred square miles of patch of California. I do actually think it's important that we get these other inputs, the broader inputs, not just geographically, but also different subjects, philosophy, social sciences, economists, not just the tech companies, not just the scientists involved in deciding how this gets built and what it gets used for.

Well, first of all, thanks for having me on the podcast. Chess for me is where it all started actually in gaming. And I started playing chess when I was four, very seriously, all through my childhood, playing for most of the England junior teams, captaining a lot of the teams.
