So that means building systems that are optimized around autonomy in the first place, building systems that can be well controlled by a computer, building systems that are made more useful by
more computational intelligence, things that can take advantage of advances in autonomy.
And Annerle's in a really good place.
If someone came up with a perfect AGI that was as smart as the smartest person in the world at anything, Annerle would be able to make great use of that.
And I am looking forward to it.
I hope John Carmack figures it out.
If he does, then it means we get to work together directly again.
That's the Palmer Lucky fantasy is that John Carmack is the one who figures out AGI with his Carmack-led crack team of geniuses.
But whoever it ends up being,
we're in a pretty good place to take advantage of it.
The only other thing I'll say is I am not scared of AGI the way that a lot of people are.
I think that AGI is a technology where the benefits do accrue more to the defender than on the offensive side.
Obviously, people can pick examples here and there.
Ah, but here's this horrible thing that it could be used for.
I still think the benefits actually accrue more to the defender.
People will say...
Assuming that we get AGI.
First of all, I think it's likely, especially in the near term, that it's going to require computationally models that are extremely heavy, that are going to be easier to run in basically just better off nations that have strong regulatory environments and a general desire to do good than out of someone's garage.
It could be someone figures out how to do it in their garage and they use it to bioengineer the next super weapon.
But
