Extended thoughts on infinite: if you give a theoretical monkey a typewriter with infinite time, not only will one produce Shakespeare, but many will (10s, 100s, millions, technically infinite), they will just be spaced out by a long, long time. But what happens if you multiple infinite by infinite? If you give infinite monkeys infinite time, then monkeys will begin rederiving the entire works of Shakespeare in every frame of reality. This is the weird unlock: two infinites takes something rare of improbably and makes it the new grammar of space-time. OKAY. Now that this is established, what is the practical tie-in? Generative AI has two infinite-like frontiers: agent replication & time dilation. Eventually, you may be able to have millions of agents working on a task, and, they’ll be working so fast, that it’s like they can compress a decade of work in a day. The implication here is that any possible intention can suddenly be leveraged to an extraordinary degree. Things will get weird. To put it alarmingly: the person with the worst intentions could suddenly become the entirety of the Internet. The opposite is true too. But weirdness will ensue when individuals suddenly have the ability to exert their will and vision upon a seemingly limitless scope of digital terrain.
