France's energy giant TotalEnergies is not just an oil and gas extractor but a vertically integrated refiner, transporter, and electricity provider. Despite multiple energy crises, it lacks elite political support. Read the new @bismarckanlys Brief (link below):

There is a lot more that could be written on intellectual authority in the modern world. Maybe a lot of people will find it interesting and even useful. Subscribe to my newsletter: brief.bismarckanalysis.com/subscribe

That the two are in political conflict at least implicitly only adds to the parallels.

It is notable how the Pope is the only religious authority in the world that wields intellectual authority even among secular people. No one secular cares what the Bishop of Canterbury or the Grand Ayatollah have to say.

Foxconn, the world's largest electronics manufacturer, has seen a second wind from the boom in demand for AI hardware which it assembles for companies like Nvidia and Google. Its core business model however remains under strain. Read the new @bismarckanlys Brief (link below):

@DanielleFong I note him later in the thread, but I think he is much less prominent than even 10 years ago. I suspect because states want to have good relations with China...

@SamoBurja Does Chris Olah defer to the pope as an authority, or just see him as a useful ally in his own project?

I think there is some proof of work going on. The assumption isn't just that billions of Catholics care about his opinion. It is that the intellectual reconciliation of AI and the Catholic church and how it will be done will change how society thinks about AI.

In the 1990s and early 2000s you could argue the Dalai Lama was on the same level of authority, but the tise of China has curbed that.

I think this is fairly unambiguously true, with no disrespect meant towards my Anglican friends at all. The Pope is unique in being able to command this level of interest, respect and curiosity about what he has to say not just to Christians but to all mankind.

@deux_ex_max Check the timeline and media! Most people writing about the encyclical letter or even reading it are not believing Catholics.
