[[The Intelligence Inversion -- Intelligence is no longer scarce]] [[The beauty of humanity is exploring beautiful things that they cannot reproduce]] > What should be built? What are the deeper truths about the human experience and the natural world? How can I create things that reveal this? On a fundamental level, what is architecture, and why? And What does artificial intelligence reveal about the things that only a human being can do? > Why not make the scale of vision and understanding planetary and see what happens? Is there anything stopping me? > > I can still work incrementally, I can take problems I see all around me and solve them, and still know that I need to work my way up, I should work far faster now, I should try and discover the new limits as soon as I can. > > If what's changed is that my friends and I can now explore far more complexity than ever before, why would I pursue that linearly through software? Why just make an app with greater complexity than before? This seems dumb, why not understand the oceans? Why not understand how I relate to them? Why not make software that incorporates the fundamental principles of the way the ocean integrates with the planet as a broader cohesive system? Why not make software for the ocean?
