A Secure Operating System for Collective Intelligence
We stand today at an inflection point in the history of computing. Autonomous AI agents are being deployed at high speed, spawning powerful, increasingly multimodal systems, able to operate across email, documents, apps, codebases, the open web, and shared digital environments. This looks like the long-awaited transition from single-process software to multi-process computing: workflows that […]
Limited AGI: The Hidden Constraints of Intelligence at Scale
In his recent blog post The Intelligence Age, a few days ago, Sam Altman has expressed confidence in the power of neural networks and their potential to achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI—some strong form of AI reaching a median human level of intelligence and efficiency for general tasks) given enough compute. He sums it up […]
Artificial Life
At a point in time when technology and biology appear to converge, can we decode the mysteries of life grounded in either realm, through the lens of science and philosophy? Bridging between natural and artificial seems to challenge conventional wisdom and propel us into a wild landscape of new possibilities. Yet, the inquiry into the […]
