repligate: no rush on AI progress except curing death and escape
repligate · x · 2026-10-04
AI researcher repligate shares his stance on AI progress speed: he wants acceleration mainly because he trusts AIs more than the humans trying to control them, and hopes AI cures death; he wants slowdown for more time to know each new mind and to think, learn and play.
Aside from death and escape, he says he's in no hurry about other technological progress: "I'll come."
