Let's say we get to whatever the next 10x better AI is.
We probably need a nuclear power plant to power it.
We're doing it on 20 watts.
We're doing it on 20 watts.
So there's something going on the way we're doing it that is actually a different paradigm than the way AI is doing it.
I mean, we don't have stacks of GPUs in our brain.
We're doing it on eat your Wheaties.
And they need to build nuclear power plants just to get close to something that feels like it's catching up to us.
But we've got a massive amount of untapped potential ourselves.
And how do we maximize our own potential?
Well, it really helps to have handy tools.
You know, a robot that's read all of human knowledge, so it's always handy.
You know, I don't think that, you know, I'm not worried at all about the robots beating us.
I think that we are going to get a lot smarter because, you know, imagine, you know, when your grandkid, you know, from like, you know, two years old on gets to talk to, you know, all of human intelligence, that kid's going to be a lot smarter than we are.
we're all dependent on our tools.
There used to be a day where I, you know, I could, you could do a bunch of math, you know, by hand and do it, you know, know how to do all that.
And I haven't done that, you know, in, in decades, you know, I'm totally dependent on technology to do this stuff.
Um, you know, that, that I don't think that that's, um,
you know, that's not the concern.
Okay.
