    This guy is amazingly good at contextualizing the concepts or observations seen in the wild.

    "You have to be mortal to be moral," is such a banger. Explains why the oligarchs always seek immortality

    This really hits the nail on the head for outlining exactly what Ai will mean for humanity. The corporation parallel is very apt. Expect the wealth gap to widen, democratic processes to be exploited, and a whole lot of unexpected disruption that was not specifically asked for, needed or wanted.

    "AIs are like genies" 🤯 Schneier has been my hero since Applied Cryptography.  He takes a pile of information and pulls out the Truth.   So on point here.  Mind your guardrails!  And patchable laws - it's crazy we set simple laws and watch people work them without adding more guardrails.

    this guy is great! &nbsp;<br>Bruce is doing a great job to verbalize the malcontent we feel but in a very explanatory and understanding way.
