So there are many of these things that are kind of changing the relationship to space, but essentially reinforcing a similar dynamic.
But I've done some studies, for example, of similar networks on the Internet, and the exponent is different.
It's closer to two, as you'd expect.
So two for...
instead of being seven six, so the one plus one six goes to become a larger exponent.
So these networks have more scope, but they have more limited set of capacities for now.
But, you know, obviously there's this deeper dynamics of creating these networks and what they can and cannot do that is just playing out.
I think at the moment, given the kind of creature that humans are, how we communicate with each other, the fact, you know, that even looking at each other and being in the same physical space remains important.
We had this big experiment with COVID, right?
it seems that this will remain to be important.
Now, an interesting question is, imagine it's all AIs, no people anymore.
Will they have space, the AIs?
And the answer probably is yes, but they may not be in space.
Right, right.
Because they don't need the embodiment and the kind of
you know, look and expression, look in people in the eyes and all this stuff.
Don't need haircuts.
But they probably will have to have some sort of signaling and so on.
You know, so these are all kind of crazy questions, but kind of maybe interesting.
But the idea is there's some fundamentals here.
