What Noah Smith actually said

  1. Noah Smith Economics writer; author of the Noahpinion newsletter
    That was true of industrial technology in 1870-1970; people basically got used to the idea that railroads and factories and oil and industrialized warfare and such matters were central to the way the world was run and to the collective future of humanity. AI is going to be like that going forward, and we’re just going to have to get used to that.
