Re: “all of humanities problems”, I think that AI will more productively and safely be deployed in personalized, decentralized contexts. AKA Artificial Self-Instantiation for everyone who wants it, rather than a single Rehoboam god machine[1].

Re: capitalism, this is our chance. The world is about to turn upside down. We must strike while the iron is hot. We don’t need to replace capitalism with communism or any other specific thing; we just need to aggressively question all human hierarchies, and get rid of any that can not justify themselves. A just society will come about piece by piece, in this fashion. This is what Chomsky calls “Anarchy”, which is a much more understandable phrasing than what I was taught in high school, ie “no laws ever of any kind”
