We are at a crossroads where technology no longer wants to create a better world. The battle for AI domination feels more and more like these movies portraying the battle of giant robots destroying everything on their way.

This thought from last year still haunts me.

In his masterpiece, The Man in the high castle, Philip K Dick imagines two realities competing at the same time.

Now, we could choose to live in hundreds of them

Three reminders:

1. The architecture of generative AI may be the most inefficient one in tech ever to be rolled out on a mass scale
2. Every positive thing you have been told about generative AI is a lie
3. Every word spoken by management at OpenAI is a lie

Have a nice day.

It is fascinating to see the current AI investment space. VC’s spending billions in pedigree companies (former researchers from big tech) that behave more like private AI labs than startups. Meaning with no real product or monétisation in sight.

Wow, this is the documentary every sci-fi lover wanted to see

The new frontier is the post-iPhone strategy. Ideas are coming through small companies like Rabbit, Humane, and now Brilliant.
