Now we know why Peter Thiel packed his bags for Argentina.
Milei just submitted his AI legislative framework to Congress, where he proposes:
- zero regulation on AI development,
- a brand-new "non-human corporation" category for AI/robot-operated entities with limited liability
-a low-tax regime with flexible governance rules.
The Dutch East India Company gave the world the limited liability company in 1602. Milei wants Argentina to do the same for autonomous AI agents in 2026.
SITUATION DETECTED: Antares Nuclear’s Mark-0 reactor has achieved initial criticality at Idaho National Laboratory, what the U.S. Department of Energy is calling one of the most significant technological achievements in nuclear energy in over 40 years.
Really, the ultimate bottleneck is reversible computing.
Because it allows you to do more compute with given power, ultimately beyond any other form of compute.
And it’s difficult enough to master that traditional chip designers are still mostly clueless about it.
Huge alpha
"a possible path to recursive self-improvement, or AI autonomously building a more capable successor."
If the future looks like this, compute & power are the ultimate bottlenecks.
Good luck selling $NVDA - bears, even the bulls might not be bullish enough.

A more general version of this problem that I’ve noticed is that the models tend to too easily believe their own wrong interpretations of data they’re seeing. A good scientist will be their own toughest critic, and will challenge their own hypotheses in every way they can think of before they start to take them at all seriously. LLMs aren’t very good at this yet.
A physicist spent 12 days supervising Claude Code as it built a piece of cosmology software.
It's the cleanest demonstration I've seen of the difference between intellect and intelligence.
The agent was brilliant at the cognitive work. Transcribing equations, debugging, optimizing against the test suite.
At one point it found a correction factor that fixed every test.
The number was physically meaningless. It worked at the single setting they checked and would've been wrong at every other one. Correct prediction, zero explanatory value.
The agent was clueless. The physicist was not.
When the physicist finally asked "does this number correspond to anything in the actual theory?", the agent answered correctly in seconds.
It could reason. It just couldn't transcend its own frame.
That's the difference. Intellect operates on the content. Intelligence operates on the context while it simultaneously generates the frame.
Agents will transcend intellect and become intelligent when they can generate their own frame of reference.
Who knows how long that will take?
@goncalomateus6@perrymetzger I’m talking about the framing being caricatured by Perry in the OP. Yes, it’s an exaggerated scenario. But it may roughly correspond to the kinds of fears that are increasingly common in the anti-AI crowd.
To calm people down, maybe explain why it isn’t so much a slippery slope.
@goncalomateus6@perrymetzger If the AI hyperscalers become big and powerful enough, they could be the government, be the military, be the police.
The only property rights they may respect may be those of the uber-wealthy who control those companies.
The concept of a democratic government would be a joke.
@perrymetzger Well, you framed the conversation as being about “ultra-wealthy evil billionaire oligarch fascist murder-people, who will own all the AI and robots and not need any of the rest of us,” which to me sounds like something that’s directly upstream of mass violence and warlordism.
@goncalomateus6@perrymetzger But, what happens to the government once the trillionaires have far more robots than the government has soldiers? Just saying.
Power is power.
@goncalomateus6@perrymetzger Property rights for me and not for thee
If you believe property rights are a thing that is universally respected, then how do you explain war?
Russian tanks rolling over Ukrainian fields, or Israeli planes bombing cities in Gaza aren’t exactly “respecting property rights.”
