Yeah, no, you wouldn't try to extrapolate the stock market with an LM trained on text from the internet, right? It's not going to be a very accurate model. It's not going to model its priors or its uncertainties about the world very accurately, right? So you need a different type of AI to complement sort of this text extrapolation AI, yeah.

I don't know if I believe in a finite time singularity as a single point in time. I think it's going to be asymptotic and sort of a diagonal sort of asymptote. Like, you know, we have the light cone, we have the limits of physics restricting our ability to grow. So obviously can't fully diverge on a finite time.

Um, I, I think my priors are that, you know, I, I think a lot of, a lot of, uh, people on the other side of the aisle, um, think that once we reach human level AI, there's going to be an inflection point and a sudden like foom, like suddenly AI is going to grok how to, you know, manipulate matter at the nanoscale. Mm-hmm. assemble nanobots.

And having worked for nearly a decade in applying AI to engineer matter, it's much harder than they think. And in reality, you need a lot of samples from either a simulation of nature that's very accurate and costly, or nature itself. And that keeps your ability to control the world around us in check. There's a sort of minimal...

Yeah. So this movement, you know, is not right-wing or left-wing fundamentally. It's more like up versus down in terms of the scale of civilization. All right.

But it seems to be like there is a sort of case of alignment of the existing political parties where those that are for more centralization of power control and more regulations are aligning themselves with the doomers because that sort of instilling fear in people is a great way for them to give up more control and give the government more power. But fundamentally, we're not left versus right.

I think we've done polls of people's alignment within IAC. I think it's pretty balanced. So it's a new fundamental issue of our time. It's not just centralization versus decentralization. It's kind of do we go, it's like tech progressivism versus techno-conservativism, right?
