New pod: WHAT IS ANTHROPIC THINKING? I asked co-founder @jackclarkSF: - Why—as @Noahpinion recently put it—does this industry insist on “our product will make you economically useless, and possibly kill you!” as a marketing strategy? - If Anthropic’s executives believes that AI might be as dangerous as nuclear weapons, what right does any private business have to build this sort of thing for profit? - If AI is really so good at making people more productive, why do Americans overall say they disapprove of AI more than just about every other institution and individual in the world? - Why, as @dwarkesh_sp has often asked, does AI still seem quite inept at coming up with truly original insights? - How does Anthropic use its own autonomous agents to increase productivity within the company? - If other companies learn to use agents effectively, is knowledge work “cooked," as @dylan522p has argued? - How should we raise our children in an age of AI? - And what values would super-intelligence make even more important than they are today? open.spotify.com/episode/1N5SyE…
