The second stage of the AI economy is here: Bottlenecks and Red Queen Races - Datacenter buildout is an infinite sector that will extend to the Dyson spheres somewhere in the future - The ramp creates shortages in many areas, one by one, first in chips, then in memory, electricians , photonics etc. - Each bottleneck cause an increase in prices - then capacity in that area has to be ramped over 2-5 years - The first Red Queen Race is in cybersecurity - Frontier models have to be used for defense. Waiting till open source exposes you to hackers who also get open source tools at the same time - there will be other winner take most markets , from financial trading to cola marketing - this is likely where the surplus profits from AI will be lost. Many companies have no choice but to engage in these zero sum games. - this is how the model companies will come to dominate the economy - in search Google and Facebook became rent collector, one on all information request, the other on social information - AI is now a pay-to-win game. If you do not pay, catastrophe may strike.

looks like we have an answer on what the early AI economy will look like: - deflationary - unemployment increases - Fed decreases rates - cost of debt is cheaper - borrowing increases - stock market zooms upwards - companies keep building AI - creates some jobs at much higher productivity - best companies go from $1 mil/employee to $10 mil/employee revenue - more AI building -> more job turnover, with smaller job creation echo Challenge is to expand the hyper productive job creation fast enough to absorb the job turnover. I guess that’s where the Fed will come in running the economy hot.

@Noahpinion I’m not really sure it’s actually zero sum. It seem like a consumer surplus arises from price discovery and liquidity.

I have a strong sensation of dice rolling in my head. On the correct toss, someone discovers an unhobbling that dramatically increase tokens per joule. You can almost feel it in the timeline. The precursors are starting to appear.

Databricks is possibly in the worst possible position for IPO. They would enter the SaaS market segment right now. Best pivot is probably to build out their own datacenters and become a neocloud. Hard to hang on to the valuation this year.

"power prices were actually negative" Crusoe CEO Chase Lochmiller @ChaseLochmiller says the company went to Abilene because the best AI sites are often where energy is stranded. "Have we got a power hungry application for you?"

"I think it puts in jeopardy a lot of these companies that fundamentally have not innovated that much in the last hundred years." Crusoe CEO Chase Lochmiller @ChaseLochmiller says old school power infra companies like Eaton will do well in the short term, but that innovators are working on solid state transformers and other techniques to bring power from 765 kV to 900 volt CD in rack. "I think innovating on that problem is a super, super huge opportunity for people."

"the data center itself is like this physical manifestation" Crusoe CEO Chase Lochmiller @ChaseLochmiller says AI is not just code — it's a giant buildout of power, cooling, concrete, and GPUs. "the data center is the physical infrastructure component that really enables all of this text technology to proliferate and change people's lives"

@Noahpinion i think even he underestimates how much motivated people will want to work

5 Contrarian AGI Predictions 1) Everyone will be working all the time - in the US, rich people work more. Typical banker, lawyer, doctor, CEO hours are 12-16 hours a day. Work provides meaning (men are most likely to die in the 1 year after they retire), status, colleagues etc. So as society gets richer, more people will work longer hours. AGI will help people find niches that best utilize their skills. That allow everyone to have a flow ikigai experience. 2) Crypto will be a thing - the market will need to show growth without inflation, and crypto is one of the few places this is possible. Cycles of crypto wealth will be similar to Bitcoin, at first looking like a scam, then iteratively becoming more real until it merges with the regular market. This allows innovation to be funded with high risk appetite funding at the early stages, then merged to main. Look for early breakouts of ideas in small markets then getting bigger as they permeate 3) Cults - AGI will empower visionaries to create pure versions of their dreams. Look for Margaritaville’s, Disneylands, Singapores. With the principal agent problem disappearing, you will see pockets of pure vibe out there. 4) Political Upheaval - Arab Spring every spring everywhere. Existing elite power structures which are unable to adapt to the entry of new and powerful entrants will be under great stress. Expect civil wars in a number of countries and small numbers of elite refugees fleeing as they get deposed. 5) Disclosures- upgraded agentic search will be like a worldwide doxxing of secrets. Especially those who escaped scrutiny through obscurity for eg you will likely be able to track every last Nazi dollar that went into South America post world war 2, or the sources of funding for current bad guys. Or who disappeared political activists during the Cold War in a number of third world countries. Like the post apartheid truth and reconciliation except with no reconciliation.

There will be a very long lag between when Sam Altman pivots from "AI will make you obsolete" to "AI will make you super productive", and when the "AI influencers" on this app execute a similar pivot.

"No one accepted a competing offer." OpenAI President Greg Brockman @gdb: The surprising part of the Altman firing wasn't just the backlash. It was what happened when competitors started poaching people.
