  1. My take - S-curves by their nature are not dangerous things. Humanity today stands on top of 1000's of historical S-curves. The only thing that is dangerous is a runaway exponential curve, and Andrew is pretty much the only guy saying "Not going to happen" because saying Exponential--->OMG--->AGI--->Matrix gets anyone free press.

  2. The AI profits go to the companies. The government will not tax them because of campaign finance and lobbying. You will just get a repeat of the end of the railway era where the barons owned nearly everything and nobody else owned a dime. A New Deal 2 will eventually come but the last one took about a 100 years and two World Wars before it got passed.

  3. Depends on competition. YouTube have never made money. Creators on YouTube has made money. This is because YouTube has no moat other than running at a loss.

  4. No. Job is collection of task + collection of non-tasks like duties. AI can't have lunch with one of your major customers.
