Artificial Intelligence doesn't scale

 Lots of bright ideas are destroyed by scaling issues.  They are on a trajectory, and one must ask the question of what happens as they zoom up.


This is fascinating on what happens when Artie takes over all the chips in the world, and nobody has a computer to use it.  It's like electric cars in Toronto.  Look around and all you see are the 1950's wires and transformers.  You can't push more energy down these things.  Most of our energy is coming down pipelines.  

This is the essence of 'cycles'.  There are restraining forces that slowly build up.  The Artie people think they can replace all the intellectual power of human brains with electronic chips.  Another failed dream.

No matter how Artie unfolds, they need a local cache in your device.  Life is funny.
