Compressing By Writing

Everybody is looking at AI

AI is on everyone’s lips, screens, funds, and ideas. And I understand, it’s hard now to imagine a future without neural networks and machine learning. We are experiencing extreme rates of progress in AI tools every month.

VC funds are investing billions in any new hot AI idea or team.

I mean, as I write, millions of dollars are getting poured into AI startups.

Thinking Machines, a startup that doesn’t even have an idea, just raised 2 billion dollars in seed round. And they’re not an isolated case.

Humanity is understanding at scale that the world is never going to be the same, and that the people who will own the infrastructure will own humanity’s work. The hedge they are building now will be the last one necessary.

AI will benefit global intelligence but the infrastructure, if kept private, will only benefit capital owners.

You’ll either be a builder or a product.
