So when I look at this future, I want to be clear that the arrival of this intelligence
both at the AI level, the AGI, which is general intelligence, and then superintelligence, is the most important thing that's going to happen in about 500 years, maybe 1,000 years in human society, and it's happening in our lifetime.
So don't screw it up!
Let's say we don't.
Yeah.
You must be in favor of UBI.
Look, humans are unchanged in the midst of this incredible discovery.
Do you really think that we're going to get rid of lawyers?
No, they're just going to have more sophisticated lawsuits.
Do you really think we're going to get rid of politicians?
No, they'll just have more platforms to mislead you.
Sorry.
I mean, I can just go on and on and on.
The key thing to understand about this new economics is that we collectively, as a society, are not having enough humans.
Look at the reproduction rate in Asia.
It's essentially 1.0 for two parents.
This is not good.
So for the rest of our lives, the key problem is going to get the people who are productive, that is, in their productive period of lives, more productive to support old people like me, who will be bitching that we want more stuff from the younger people.
That's how it's going to work.
These tools will radically increase that productivity.
