It's not just, are there killer robots or not?

It's also nuclear war, asteroids, pandemics, climate change, a bunch of other things.

So you say, well, if we create AI, is the basket, well, yes, we may add the Terminator robots as a negative possibility, but is the basket of risk get better or worse?

And I think it just gets better because it's the only way I can think of to solve pandemics.

I think it's already helping in questions of advancing certain technologies around climate change.

There's just a stack of things where you go, just creating it is better.

Next thing is, you know, people say, well, what about jobs?

And you say, well, okay, there's basically, I think always in the transition, there'll be difficulties and challenges.

And navigating that transition is one of the things I'm most focused on.

But it's kind of like, well, we're going to, it's just like the industrial revolution with the loom and everything else and, you know, moving to the power loom.

And we're going to have that.

That's going to have a disruption in society.

There's going to be challenges with that, guaranteed.

But on the other side, like when we look at our entire, you know, kind of

Lives today of societies that have middle classes and prosperous societies, it all comes from the Industrial Revolution.

So the other side of that will very much look like the similar kind of amplification of what we've had here.

Now you say, what does that mean for jobs?

Now, obviously, we know we need them for economy and people's kind of sense of purpose and sense of commitment.

And you say, look, what we're going to have is all this transition by which we have amplification intelligence.

The thing I described in my last book before Super Agency, Impromptu, which is AI means amplification intelligence.
