ChatGPT Heralds an Intellectual Revolution

I don't care what Henry Kissinger thinks about new technology, especially when it's a boring rehash of mainstream opinion that ironically probably could have been written by gpt.

He and Eric Schmidt also wrote an "AI" business book not long ago - it I felt was equally empty of any real insight, just sort of a bland restatement of populist opinion with some largely irrelevant geopolitical considerations thrown in.

The opinions of 100 year olds may be more interesting of they can give some kind of ling time-horizon perspective or contrarian scepticism of what we pretend are "new" things. To just have him jump on the same stuff all the crypto-pivots want to sell is not very interesting.

I think I'm also a bit jaded from the whole Theranos thing, it makes me feel like he's more just a tech grifter now.

The fact that Henry Kissinger is not in prison is pretty strong evidence that the US doesn’t not actually care about “international rules based order”.
