The idea of "bad chills" is interesting. That can be dangerously manufactured too. Surely, some people get bad chills after watching a political attack ad using misinformation. It still doesn't mean those chills point to anything true. But it does mean the ad worked.

When the Wall Street Journal covered Neo’s “expert mode,” they framed it as a limitation. A human in the loop? Surely that’s a step backward from full autonomy.

Expert mode should be thought of as a feature, not the bug. It’s the spark of something more interesting than either pure automation or the status quo.

Something strange happens when you extrapolate current AI progress 20 years forward. The economics stops making sense.
Not in the way economists usually mean, where models break down at the margins. The whole framework stops working. Supply, demand, scarcity — these concepts assume things that won’t be true anymore.
