@PTrubey if Elon believes in AI so much he should be the first one to trial AI robots in his home & sleep with that cheeky 🤖 next to his body and family. Practice what he preaches.

I listened to 85 minutes of The Economist’s interview of Elon so you don’t have to. Besides, it’s behind a paywall.
Elon’s predictions: In five years, AI compute will exceed the sum of all human intelligence. In ten years, we will have reached the age of abundance. Money won’t matter. Everyone will have what they need or want (at least in economies that embrace AI).
Ms. Beddoes tried to pin Elon down on how the economy will transform that way, but he wouldn’t get into specifics beyond noting that widespread AI robotics is a deflationary force. This means governments won’t need to raise taxes for universal basic income schemes, or, as Elon likes to call it, universal high income, since they will simply be able to print money to ward off deflation caused by the robot economy.
She noted that Elon appears to have a more sanguine view of AI lately. He replied that he’s concluded superintelligent AI is now inevitable, so there’s no point trying to stop or slow it down, it can’t be done. We might as well enjoy the ride.
The interviewer also noted that Mars no longer seems to be Elon’s overall ambition. He answered that his real mission was always to propagate and preserve human consciousness into the far future. Mars was just a vehicle for that. But now AI is a very important part of that goal. AI will necessarily be part of any future plan.
And then came the oh-so-typical, increasingly tiresome part of most long journalist interviews: the interviewer constructs a straw-man version of Elon and argues against it. Elon carefully explained that he isn’t a raging far-right extremist, racist Nazi who kills puppies … and the journalist still didn't believe it. It is so effing tiresome.
The lack of self-awareness on the part of journalists is off the charts. She complained about Elon’s supposed misperception of how dangerous London is, while remaining oblivious to the role she plays in creating the giant misperception of Elon as a person in her own writing.
Elon defended his political views, saying he is for secure borders, locking up criminals, and balanced government spending, something even she had to admit didn’t sound crazy.
And… that’s about it for an 85-minute interview. I couldn’t help but think that the next long-form interview Elon does should be conducted by an AI.

Privacy is sexy. Look out there. Everybody is performing their perfectly curated lives. Reels, stories and all. But what's really attractive is living fully without performing for an audience. Keeping parts of your life just for you. Allowing ordinary experiences to feel extraordinary because they are fully yours. In a world obsessed with visibility, choosing to exist without explanation is rare.

@saraaht0nin You must like pain still. I have fun blocking them and never returning. If they really want to find you they will.
