My overarching thought after reading as much as I could stand of this is: "Wow, sure sounds like Zuck really drank his own Kool-Aid - or if he didn't, at least he wants us all to believe that he did!". The question is not whether "superintelligence" will be accomplished, the question is only how fast. I mean, LLMs are nice, but the jury's still out on whether they alone will be enough for "superintelligence"...

> I do not understand why anyone who believes that AI will eliminate most jobs and much of humanity's relevance would rush to build that future.

Because they can make a sh*tload of money by doing it (or at least they hope they can)?
