Well, you talked about this on Lex's podcast too, like the ability to have safety.

You're like, sure, maybe GPT-5, maybe GPT-6.

But when you scale out 100 years from now, ultimately it's impossible.

Yeah, and it doesn't scale linearly.

It's exponential, right?

So what do you mean by you don't think there's good quantum computing out there?

But when I've read all these articles about quantum computing and its ability to solve equations that would take conventional computing an infinite number of years and it can do it in minutes.

Right.

I see what you're saying.

So it's essentially set up to do it quickly.

When you see these articles when they're talking about quantum computing and some of the researchers are equating it to the multiverse, they're saying that the ability that these quantum computers have to solve these problems very quickly seems to indicate that it is in contact with other realities.

I'm sure you've seen this, right?

Right.

Yeah.

This the problem with subjects like that and particularly articles are written about things like this is that it's designed to lure people like me in where you read it and you go, wow, this is crazy.

It's evidence of the multiverse.

But I don't really understand what that means.

Right.

But are we even capable of grasping these concepts?

That's the thing.
