It's not an original idea. I mean, this is something that people have talked about for a long time.

Yeah, I do. I think that there's a bunch of ways you can break down the safety argument. And the one that I think is the highest risk in terms of lack of visibility and transparency, and also the potential for it to escalate quickly, is if you remove a human in the loop in the military context. I think there'll be great temptation to do that. And I think it can be very dangerous.

I don't know, but I hope smarter people than me can figure them out.

Yeah, I think there's also a pattern, though, of people becoming immune to things over time. If you look at the history of humanity, yeah, there have been times that broad swaths of the population have become addicted to things, and yet we've gotten through them. The Wirehead, in case I would not be as fearful of.

And I think for the military side, I think there's very thoughtful people there, too. So I'm actually very optimistic. But you asked me to go into the dark spot. I'm shining some light on them.

I think it's important to do things from a perspective of you want them to exist. But yeah, like in any situation, if it's a game, then it's a game I want to win. It doesn't have to be business. It could be a board game. I like to win those too. I think it's fun to have that gamer mentality, especially when you're on a team.

I was never a team sports guy because I'm not very good at sports, but I really like Robotics Club. We're all together and trying to figure out in this sort of more intellectual activity, how do we win? My team didn't always win, but it was a lot of fun. And coming into Figma, I feel like we have the best team. So I feel very blessed.

Well, actually, my favorite prompt was not my own, unfortunately, but it was my friend who's an elementary school teacher. And her prompt was, write a story about a dinosaur for a six-year-old using only the first 10 letters of the alphabet. That was a really wild prompt. It thought for a long time on that one, but actually did give results in the end.

If I told you to do that right now, it's hard.

I think it's kind of funny how everyone's like, oh, is it AGI? Is it not AGI? Just no one seems to have a shared definition of what AGI is. I feel like being able to talk to someone at the level of depth that Owen Pro can answer, that feels pretty general and pretty intelligent to me. Is it doing work yet? Not just yet, but it feels like to me it's functionally AGI.
