What comes after AI? Robotics. Robotics (led by Humanoid Robotics) likely will turn out to be the largest category of the US and World economy, almost by definition as it can replace all forms of human labor and will be the cheapest way to move physical atoms.


Hi everyone yes, I left OpenAI yesterday. First of all nothing "happened" and it’s not a result of any particular event, issue or drama (but please keep the conspiracy theories coming as they are highly entertaining :)). Actually, being at OpenAI over the last ~year has been really great - the team is really strong, the people are wonderful, and the roadmap is very exciting, and I think we all have a lot to look forward to. My immediate plan is to work on my personal projects and see what happens. Those of you who’ve followed me for a while may have a sense for what that might look like ;) Cheers
