A powerful confluence is happening among the bioregional weavers of Europe. We have been immersed in a tapestry of workshops and site visits here in the Netherlands for the last two days. Check out what we are doing. Be inspired. Get involved. Share with your friends. substack.com/home/post/p-220…

The ideal outcome for science isn't a couple of labs using proprietary models and millions of dollars to crack trophy problems, it's to have millions of AI-aided human scientists who follow their curiosity and become way more ambitious

We underestimate how much human potential gets crushed by the struggle to survive. Somewhere, there’s a genius working double shifts who hasn’t had the energy to create anything in months because they’re too fucking exhausted just trying to stay afloat.

I’m starting to get increasingly uncomfortable with the economics of AI as it is currently happening It seems fundamentally wrong that a small number of people with access to a huge amounts of VC money can vacuum up all the contributions of humanity, often paying nothing for it, then turn around and get enormously rich while the many people who put all the work into creating the training data get nothing I am generally pro-AI, but the way it is happening is seeming increasingly parasitic to me

We are really learning a lot about what it means to live regeneratively in the south of France. I just wrote this article to share a glimpse into our experiences in Tarn et Garonne through the last several days. Hope you enjoy it! substack.com/home/post/p-218…

The disappearance of places where you’re allowed to just exist without spending money deserves way more attention.

We always get the argument that private companies are more efficient than government. Will that hold up if most of the tasks are done by ai? Will companies become redundant when the main question becomes: "how can we best provide good common services to inhabitants"?

Likely better to manage commons by cooperatives though, to maintain independence

If ai can create it end to end, you're not gonna be able to sell it That's almost definitionally true at this point, crazy some of you can't see that

The idea that higher education should only be pursued as a way to make as much money as possible is evidence we’ve entirely lost the plot of what it means to be human

If AI is unaligned it's because we are unaligned If two people fully disagree with each other there is no generative model that you can train to be aligned with BOTH minds

Been thinking about this: Everyone is trying to sell the $1500 permaculture design. Instead, sell them the smallest way to get from Point A to Point B. The Zone 1 design instead of the entire property. Then if they like it, build on that. Sort of like the coffee/tea ceremony. The barter. Historically, people have never started with the most expensive item. Initially find common ground. “I am from…” “I am John’s son.” Bring out one item of lesser value. Decide or agree on that. Then build on that negotiation. Trust. Deliver that win. Then build on it.
