CHAPTER

I Want the Second Brain

Some of the science fiction authors that i grew up with are having an increasingly harder time writing about the future, just because they're so perplexed by a kind of the current environment. I think you've got you have generational issues, but it's also the fact that that the pase if technology change is accelerating. Elon musk is apparently going to demo the norlin system on a friday, so be curious to see. For sure, i definitely do. I want the i want the second brain, and i want the ability to upload some point in th future.

Aas i keep science fiction as a regular staple, including re reading some of the older science fiction, which can be fascinating n of itself. And also find it interesting that some of the science fiction authors that i grew up with, that william gibsons and the bruce sterlings, are having an increasingly harder time writing about the future, just because they're so perplexed by a kind of the current environment, or what has evolved in the present. That that me ihas it's brought up this whole new generation of folks that are writing from a science fiction perspective, because they seem to be the ones that can actually grasp what does 20, 30, forty, 50 years out look like?
Speaker 1
I think that's right. And that, i think you've got you have generational issues, but it's also the fact that that the pase if technology change is accelerating. And people who grew up as i did in a world where it was changing rapidly, but that the rate of change wasn't perceptibly changing. I and so wewe could wrap our arms around more's law, but not so well around the implications of more's law applied to other areas like i biote where it'sa been moving much faster and the rate of change has increased. I'v been some good studies on that over over recent years. A, so yet another ad, another argument to bring diversity of age, as well as experience, into into any serious discussion or policy making process,
Speaker 2
or even a a i, where we know that there's going to be an expediential aspect of the moors law for a i development, once they start assisting us in the writing of their own soft words, going to be interesting times for certain ahead. Righ,
Speaker 1
were want the very front edge of that, and it it's an exciting time.
Speaker 2
Elon musk is apparently going to demo the norlin system on a friday, so be curious to see. I want one of those babies. For sure, i definitely do. I want the i want the second brain, and i want the ability to upload some point in th future. Be watching that. Excellent. Bu, thank you for joining us on uda. Cassus as incredibly insightfull.
