I should probably write something about why there is no moat for AI, because it’s taking advantage of the intrinsic data structure of sentences (language). And that once the LLM strategy of brute forcing an n-dimensional manifold representation was invented, the simplicity of the architecture for AI was exposed, and that its logic is just a commodity.

Once you solve the interface problem – which LLMs do very well by using ordinary language as a programming language – the entire stack of human cognitive faculties is simply a matter of recursive filtering with recursive wayfinding.

I’ve been writing about the simplicity of consciousness for years now, and it’s going to emerge as rather obvious even for those nonsense-philosophers who lack knowledge of neuroscience and cognitive science such that they are trapped in the fantastic just as their supernatural and theological peers remain.
