Theoretical Physics & Computational Universe - The speaker believes underlying physics is information theory, suggesting we are in a computational universe, but not a straightforward simulation [1] - The speaker finds the ability of systems to model real structures in nature interesting, referencing work with AlphaGo and AlphaFold [2] - The speaker may write a scientific paper about the implications of these systems for understanding reality [2] Simulation Argument & Recursion - If we are in a simulation, the beings creating it are likely in a simulation themselves [3] - This leads to either an infinite stack of simulations or a stopping criterion [3]

What did you learn from Glass that Google might be able to apply today now that it seems like smart glasses have made a reappearance. Wow. Yeah.Uh, great question. I learned a lot. I mean, that was definitely feel like I made a lot of mistakes with Google Glass.I'll be honest. I am still um a big believer in the form factor. So, I'm glad that we have it now.Uh, and now it's like looks like normal glasses, doesn't have the thing in front. I think there was a technology gap honestly. Now in the AI world, the ...

Honestly, anybody who's a computer scientist should not be retiring right now should be working on AI. That's what I would just say. I mean, there's just never been a greater sort of problem and opportunity, a greater cusp of technology.So, I don't I wouldn't say it's because of the race, although we fully intend that Gemini will be the very first AGI. Clarify that. But to be immersed in this uh incredible technological revolution, I mean, it's unlike, you know, I went through sort of the web 1.0% thing.It ...

Do you think that AGI is going to be reached by one company and it's game over or could you see Google having AGI, OpenAI having AGI, Anthropic having AGI, China having AGI. Wow. Um, that's a great question.I guess I would suppose that one uh company or country or entity will reach AGI first. Now, it is a little bit of, you know, kind of a spectrum. It's not like a completely precise thing.So it's conceivable that there will be more than one roughly in that range at the same time. After that what happens I ...
