I try to both [be useful] and [have a good life / don’t burn out]
I started thinking a few days ago about investments. Initial thoughts:
Given we’re not all dead, what happens and how to get rich?
Guess 1: There was a world war or something similar that got to all AI labs worldwide
My brain: OMG that sounds really bad. Can I somehow avoid the cross fire?
Guess 2: One specific org can generate 100x more tech and science progress than the entire rest of the world combined
My brain: I hope they will be publicly tradable, still respect the stock market, and I can buy their stock in advance?
Problem: Everyone wants to invest in AI companies already. Do I have an advantage?
If there will be a few years of vast-strangeness before we’ll probably all die, can I get very rich beforehand and maybe use that for something?
(Similar to Guess 2 above, and also doesn’t seem promising)
This is just initial, I’m happy in anyone joining the brainstorm, it’s easier together
