Technology and markets solve risks faster than regulation creates themArgues humans + machines beat machines alone (centaur chess), that augmentation is the right framing, and that authoritarian AI capture is a more urgent risk than runaway misalignment.
What concerns me about AI is not that the machine will surpass us, but that we will hand over too much to people who control the machines and never to ask the questions on which our humanity depends.
