I found 'The Mirror In The Land Of The Becoming' to be an exceptionally powerful vignette. The metaphor of alien and infectuous reflections that are not really reflections underlying everything really shook me. I think it was a level up (or several levels up) from the last 5 or 6 Import AI short stories.
"The terms of what it is like to be human are about to change in ways..." that we're not fully imagining yet, yes. AI will compound what we have in society, overtly and covertly, with massive societal implications. It's on 'us' to continue asking the right questions: past, present, and way into the future.
I’m curious what “AI policy” will look like if distributed training keeps up. I know you said it will change many things, but I wonder to what AI regulation would even be feasible in such a case
Look at blockchains for an idea. China keeps banning bitcoin…Western governments are putting gates at the on/off ramps. Neither are stopping much of the illegal activity.
consider shadow libraries and the near impossibility of shutting them down. Anna’s Archive even spells it out explicitly in their FAQ.
It’s interesting to see Pete talk about reacting to AI. I haven’t really included any federal action when modeling economic impacts because I haven’t expected the government to react in time. I still don’t expect significant federal action, but this is a step towards that
Really appreciate your effort in putting all this together. A great resource.
