Human coordination used to be the bottleneck.

  • Human coordination used to be the bottleneck.
    • It sucked, but it was inescapable.
    • Now, you can escape it, in some cases, by simply not coordinating with other humans, and using a swarm of agents to execute your goals.
    • A lot more leverage for an individual vision, which is great if it's a prosocial, high-quality vision… and bad if it's an antisocial or unworkable vision.
      • Before, unworkable or antisocial visions were less likely to happen because it would be hard to recruit others to work on it.
      • Agents will happily do it as long as it's not actively evil.
