AGI

Tyler Cowen quoted

HoldsEven well-informed AI insiders frequently develop something like "AI psychosis" from engaging with these ideas.

Though be very, very careful when speaking with others, whether it be the less informed public or the more informed insiders who often come down with AI psychosis.

HoldsOmarchy could reasonably switch its packaging system to Nix.

A nix based Omarchy would be amazing. Want to see this!

HoldsOmarchy could reasonably switch its packaging system to Nix.

Maybe Nix is like Rust: Amazing if you don't have to look at the code! I'm open to the idea that Omarchy Cinque could switch packaging system if I never have to look at nixlang, there are no ergonomic regressions, and we have full repo sovereignty.

HoldsThe very large productivity gains from agents require working with them directly; putting another human in between is too slow to preserve the gain.

The revelation I've had working on Omarchy the last three months is that to get that magical 10X, 100X, in a few rare cases, 1000X productivity boost, you have to interact with the agents directly, and you cannot intermediate that bandwidth with another human because it's simply too slow.

HoldsOverly prescriptive instructions make a coding agent worse, for the same reason a micromanaging boss makes a programmer worse.

it was actually being damaged by overly prescriptive humans. And any programmer who's had a pointy-haired boss knows exactly what that is like. When the boss walks into the room, doesn't know anything, starts telling you how to program, how to code. What do you do? You sulk. You write shittier code if you're mandated to do things that are against your better judgment. Why would an agent not be the same?

HoldsCalling today's economic effects "the Singularity" waters the term down past recognition; Vinge meant an event horizon beyond which nothing is imaginable.

Incredible watering down -- the Singularity is now redefined to mean "the rate of new firm creation has increased somewhat" Vernor Vinge described the Singularity as an event horizon past which everything (e.g. what happens tomorrow) becomes entirely unimaginable and unpredictable to human understanding

HoldsYou can now simply ask for the desktop tools you want and have them built, instead of finding or writing them yourself.

You can literally just wish for the tools you want now. Omarchy has every skill to make them. It’s magical.

HoldsThere is a 25% chance of AGI by 2027, a 50% chance by 2034, and a 75% chance by 2045

I think there's a 25% chance of AGI by 2027, a 50% chance by 2034, and a 75% chance by 2045.
