Today's guest believes the rate of progress in AI means our only goal should be to stay alive long enough for AI to take over.

0:08.9

He believes that algorithms may hold the key to living forever.

0:12.8

Welcome back for Part 2 with Brian Johnson.

0:16.0

Do you have to use first principles to get to a zero-eth principle insight? Sometimes. Yeah. Sometimes it's

0:23.7

entirely a new primitive, like Einstein's discovery of special theory of relativity.

0:28.8

If there's a new dimension building on Newtonian physics, it's hard to get there through

0:33.5

first principles thinking. Or, you know, from Euclid's elements to Cartesian geometry.

0:40.3

So sometimes these ones to zeros are very hard to get to.

0:44.3

You're plucking them out of another dimension.

0:47.3

So, I mean, like with Go, you know, could humans have discovered the moves that AlphaGo played?

0:56.0

Probably. Did they? No.

0:59.0

Was AlphaGo able to discover more game-changing moves in the game go faster than any human?

1:06.0

Yes.

1:07.0

You know, like a stunning degree.

1:08.0

And so, yeah, first principle thinking is you learn everything you can.

1:13.5

You make the fewest number of assumptions given a time frame, and you act with that knowledge.

1:20.1

And so that's how you go from version one to version two to version three.

1:23.5

It's a systematic process to improve based upon what you know.

1:28.3

Zero to principle thinking, you're working with unknown unknowns.

1:32.3

So you don't know what you're missing.

1:35.3

And when a... So just like if you're a physicist and you're working in Newtonian physics,

1:41.3

you don't know another dimension exists in the model of physics until Einstein discovers it.
