How Did You Start Thinking About Artificial Intelligence?

When did you start thinking about AI? Well as an undergrad when I was 18 I mean this list of things I wanted to work on and AI was the top but I took the AI classes at Stanford and it was like clearly not working. And then in 2012 it started to work and then in 2015 which is when we started talking about creating open AI. It's been like the central learning of my career. The asterisk to that though is that humans have not apparently evolved well to guess how exponential curves are going to play out. When you scale these things up if they're getting like doubling every year in the case of AI maybe 8x in every year we don't have good intuition for
