Li Lu on AI era: zero-sum games don't compound, choose human-in-the-loop and trust networks
oran_ge · x · 2026-11-05
Investor Li Lu's latest long-form interview addresses personal value in the AI era: zero-sum games appeal to short-term instincts but don't compound — skills learned today may be obsolete tomorrow, making people increasingly dependent on external tools ("now you can use AI; one day AI may replace you"). He instead advocates "human in the loop": continuous learning and participation so that knowledge, entrusted capital, and trust all compound over time, citing Charlie Munger's view that the highest form of human relations is "a seamless web of mutual trustworthiness."
