I feel this intensely and think about it all the time. Many people for whom I have tremendous respect, people I have been reading for many years, people who I look to to make sense of the world really do seem to dislike AI. All I can tell you is that for the last few years, I have been obsessively playing with it, building things with it and spending a lot of time trying to make sense of it. I can’t stop. It’s the exact same feeling and drive I had when I first installed Mosaic in the 90s. But this feels quite a bit different.
I don’t understand how anyone can say they’re anti something that’s potentially creative. If it’s not working for you today it could work for you a year from now. Soon conversations like that won’t even matter. It’s like discussing the Internet. It already is.

When the bubble is big, every idea feels like a billion-dollar idea. I yearn for cheap ideas from strangers.

When I lose a thread or stall on phrasing, Byron offers possibilities — paths I might not have seen. Between my neural implants and Byron’s digital guidance, I now collaborate with two adaptive systems:... See more
For my 80th birthday I bought myself a new brain
I lost my mom to Parkinson’s this year, so this hit a nerve. My mom never would have done this sort of thing, but as the saying goes, this is the worst it will ever be. I hope I live disease-free long enough to see some significant treatment advancements for neurodegenerative diseases.
A number of people are talking about implications of AI to schools. I spoke about some of my thoughts to a school board earlier, some highlights:
1. You will never be able to detect the use of AI in homework. Full stop. All "detectors" of AI imo don't really work, can be defeated in various ways, and are in principle... See more
