AI cheaper using people, not compute
There is a huge opportunity here to provide AI at a much, much cheaper level than the current AI companies are offering — by simply utilizing people instead of compute.
Why
It takes a lot of energy to keep compute going, coupled to reality — because reality is constantly changing. Humans have the shape of reality in general. So we focus on small changes back and forth. But as changes speed up, it becomes harder and harder for everyone to keep up. That's the idea behind network relativity.
If you can't answer whose time is being saved and where, it's not a good AI deployment. It's complexity inflation.
