Remember when Sam Altman said that AI systems could just "learn the collective moral preferences" in response to a question by Jack Kornfield about values? https://youtu.be/hn1Y6GVWUV0?si=wLl9t023O8eYREXm&t=750

"The right to be represented by a bot" needs to become a fundamental right for all humans. We need to be able to mediate our interactions with systems through AI that we trust. I also cover this idea in my book The World After Capital https://worldaftercapital.gitbook.io/worldaftercapital/part-four/informational#bots-for-all-of-us

How can decentralized AI win? It will never be as efficient as the centralized alternatives (because of communication overhead). One possibility is by aggregating otherwise underutilized hardware. I am more intrigued though by the possibility to incentivize global human-machine collaboration on content, models, queries, etc. This has the potential for huge efficiency gains over centralized competing entities which duplicate all efforts.
