Peter Kirgis on AGI will create abundance

Peter Kirgis

Research Scientist at Princeton University’s Center for Information Technology Policy, writing on artificial intelligence and its societal effects.

My contention is not that these fantasies are false, but that they are incomplete. [...] Furthermore, the metastasization of AI in society will also generate a multitude of other abundances (and corresponding scarcities): an abundance of language (and a scarcity of attestation), an abundance of responses (and a scarcity of struggle), an abundance of validation (and a scarcity of calibration), and an abundance of bullshit (and a scarcity of signal).
