I'm an optimist that loving human intelligence will win-win in designing AI (have been for 75 years when dad Norman Macrae was first pre-trained by von-neumann- see 75 years of chatting back from the future at this blog and 2025report.com)
but 2020 was one of life's worst years (aged 69 got covid before we in america were told transmission through breathing); other worst years when sister died of cancer aged about 32, when neice died during gap year in africa aged 18; one of my fanrite ways to start a presentaion- ask audience to stand up in threes - each spend 1 minute telling other 2 of moment that changed your life and what you did after that.)
I was privileged to start a talk at Europena Union HQ at a conference of emergency first responders knowledge management about 3 years after 9/11 - i wish we could have collected each of those 1 minute chats and founded an llm plugnin around them. I mention this because even in 2025 it could be something you did 20 years ago that most needs ai to listen to you now.
Back to purpose of this post
which (unbderknown) tech/engineering people helped 9us ordinary community netozens)most in 2020
I'll vote for founders of lunchclub (kept many of us sane during lockdown years) - a co-production of andrew ng and others at aifund.com
as of 2025 , I recommend understaning what these engineers have open intelligences
Jensen Huang
Demis Hassabis
Yann Lecun
People like Andrew Ng, Fei-Fei Li. Anne Doerr about 15 others in and out of stanford are collectively citak in keeping Valley AI human but if you really understand one of the 3 above then i think intelligence will do you no harm
Of course dependuing where you live your way into applying AI to help millennilals be first renewanle (not first extinction ) generation varies
Many people have made ai humam out of taiwan since maurice chang landed their ro celebrate year 1 of going beyongd nultary rule
My family has found 2 royal familes care about all peoples future - ue uk and Japan but of course histirically what language you speak determines who you nbeed to trust most
I am a beliver in Ambanu meaning it that for india to be the best it could be at intelligence it will open source tramslations betrween chats of every language and needs zuckenberger, Lecun and Huang's help to do that
When people say is all the energy ai uses worth it; i start with friends of hassabis; in the next 5 years so many health and natural revolutions depend on the assabos branch of ai which decodes natires maths language 9eg 250 millioin proteins alphafold3); I am glad that hassabis is susatined by london and cnbridge toyal societies as much as he is by the Valley (google. stanfird,and their asian-american coding wizards)
it would be wonderful if macron hosting of the 3rd ai world summit in king chares ai series started nov 2023 couldbridge the english channel for the first time since 1066 and all that but mu suspicion is the eu having messed up its energy dependency on russia is going to need macron most
I am just a diaspora scot- in 70 trips to asia people were always good to me apart from a dew bad apples that I was hired to statistically expose; so i wish education and health intelligence could unite peoples communities everywhere beyond nations boundaries
find me at chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk or if you are passing through washington dc I have been arranging colaborationcafe for 20 years now
I expect that is the end game we humans needf to map before general artificial inteligence reughns- what do you hope humans medite first before AI mediates usall?
