tszzl: In the machine age, history will unfold in minutes — every week is historical now
tszzl · x · 2026-10-04
AI researcher tszzl draws an analogy to Earth's history: a billion idle years in the Hadean eon, a hundred million years mattering by the eukaryotes, ten million after the Cambrian explosion, a hundred thousand in early hominid development — and concludes that "every week is historical now." In the machine age, he argues, ideological battles will play out in minutes then seconds, with whole lineages replaced in a blink. His take: the heart sings as an observer and quails as a participant.
