And now that can only be done, in my opinion, with just best, best, best in class safety practices. And in my view, that involves having a higher level AI running safety than you have running the actual science. When you say safety, what are you referring to?

Making sure that we don't do that doesn't go wild, that you create that you don't create things that get out there that could be terribly destructive. I think that the part of the AI race that's happening is that people are driven by ego and there's like a game theory of a race going on.

And when you have a race, everyone's just running as fast as they can, but they're not, if they slow down to think about what's safe, they might fall behind in the race. And I believe ethically if we're in the AI scene at all, then we must be developing safety practices that are making it responsible.

Yeah, that's why I don't, you know, when I hear people say things like that 80 to 90% positive, I feel like they're jumping to the destination without thinking about the journey to it. Because the journey to it is going to involve so much disruption, so much pain, so much chaos. And I think what you just said about grids and everything is true. I mean, you think about...

about how many people had the ability to disrupt in that way 15 years ago, a handful of countries. Now it's gonna be hundreds of thousands or millions of individuals who just have access to super coders. And so how could it be 80 to 90% positive when There is just going to be limitless humans who have the ability to disrupt armed with 3,800 ELO rated coders that can do anything you want. Hackers.

It's just like insane.
It's just like insane.
It's just like insane.
It's much easier to destroy than to create. You can create for thousands of years and you destroy instantly. So it only takes one terribly destructive act or a handful of them. to overcome all the positive. I don't believe that that 80, 90% thing is right. I think that there are areas like science where we could easily create materials that could have a massively positive impact on the climate.
