The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

There's a lot of other things happening in the world, wars and geopolitical strangeness and dynamics.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

But AI is changing so quickly.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

It is changing exponentially.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

It's doubling in capacity, power, if you like, every five or six months, depending on how you measure that.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

Which means, you know, every six months it's doubling.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

And then that whole thing, that amount doubles again, doubles again.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

And humans are really bad at understanding that.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

Our intuition fails, right?

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

We have sort of, our brains have evolved in a very linear world.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

So we're used to every step we take is another, just a meter.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

You know, if we take exponential steps, about 26 steps, we've walked around the globe.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

And we don't get that.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

So when you ask a lot of people, you know, what do you think next year is going to be like?

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

They imagine, you know, chat GPT window and imagine it just a little bit better.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

But that's not exponential.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

That's just a linear thing.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

So people predict in this linear straight line, but AI is going like that.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

The change, yeah.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

And then the other thing is that it's not a single exponential.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

So it's like AI is then affecting everything else.
