Optimism, Technology and Progress

Listen now

Description

Marc Andreessen, Sam Altman and Geoffrey Hinton To quote Oscar Wilde:A map of the world that does not include Utopia is not worth even glancing at, for it leaves out the one country at which Humanity is always landing. And when Humanity lands there, it looks out, and, seeing a better country, sets sail. Progress is the realisation of Utopias. Now, I have said that the community by means of organisation of machinery will supply the useful things, and that the beautiful things will be made by the individual. This is not merely necessary, but it is the only possible way by which we can get either the one or the other. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thatwastheweek/message
