Timothy B. Lee, author of the Understanding AI Substack, joins The Realignment to discuss his argument against the idea that recent advances in artificial intelligence presage mass unemployment. Timothy and Marshall discuss how the 2010s demonstrated the limits of software's ability to "eat" the physical world, with AI following a similar path, just how hard it would be for robotics to replicate today's human-centric work, and what the AI revolution could actually look like.
