Chapter 4: Dreams of Modernity #
📌 These two features of technology revolutions—their promise to deliver progress and their tendency instead to reverse it for people out of power, especially the most vulnerable—are perhaps truer than ever for the moment we now find ourselves in with artificial intelligence. ⏱ 2025-07-17 20:39:08 ^CB-E3L9zTA0u5kt6xD6xFGRi7xj-13-3728-4001
📌 To justify the elongating timeline and the ever-expanding costs of pursuing the ambition for AI, the promises we’re told about it have grown more grandiose than ever before: AI was once a scientific fascination, a technology with some potential commercial utility. Now, AI is the harbinger of the fourth industrial revolution. ⏱ 2025-07-17 20:41:58 ^CB-E3L9zTA0u5kt6xD6xFGRi7xj-13-18079-18406
Chapter 5: Scale of Ambition #
📌 “What I cannot create, I do not understand.” ⏱ 2025-07-20 08:22:54 ^CB-E3L9zTA0u5kt6xD6xFGRi7xj-14-15947-15992
Chapter 6: Ascension #
📌 “My sort of crazy, somewhat arbitrary rule of thumb is you want to have a technology that’s an order of magnitude better than the next best thing,” ⏱ 2025-07-20 08:22:55 ^CB-E3L9zTA0u5kt6xD6xFGRi7xj-16-2870-3017
Chapter 10: Gods and Demons #
📌 But even without the label, the movement’s social networks, its values and lingo, and the prominence it secured for existential AI safety issues would persist. It would also give rise to a countervailing force: e/acc (pronounced “ee-ack”), or effective accelerationism. What began largely as a joke to lampoon the EA movement would quickly enshrine its polar opposite spirit: Where EA and the broader AI safety community cultivated the most extreme perspectives about slowing down and even slamming the brakes on AI development, or, as in Amodei’s view, accelerating AI development while throttling AI adoption, e/acc would elevate the maximalist view of flooring the accelerator on both. For the latter’s adherents, technological progress is not just universally good, it’s a moral imperative to make that progress as fast as possible. The two groups became colloquially known as the Doomers and Boomers. ⏱ 2025-07-24 20:27:17 ^CB-E3L9zTA0u5kt6xD6xFGRi7xj-21-20742-21647
Chapter 18: A Formula for Empire #
📌 The most successful founders do not set out to create companies,” Altman reflected on his blog in 2013. “They are on a mission to create something closer to a religion, and at some point it turns out that forming a company is the easiest way to do so.” ⏱ 2025-08-03 11:31:44 ^CB-E3L9zTA0u5kt6xD6xFGRi7xj-30-4318-4571
