I was explaining the problem of lagging benefits for the huge expenditures for AI research and infrastructure this morning to my wife (my RC airplane flying club is an hour round trip drive so we really had time to get into it). She is not much interested in tech but she found the story of over investment and what it might do to our economy very interesting indeed.
There are many people in the USA who don’t overly care about technology but might care a lot about the economic risks of overly aggressively chasing strong AI capabilities.
I am forwarding this article to a few friends and family members.
