Can’t read b/c paywall. Sounds very interesting. My educated hunch is that there is no single cause of AD, but rather it is a syndrome of failed cellular metabolism, which can be caused by a number of means.

Society has a lot of decisions to make. One of which is how much energy do AIs get. They are estimated to consume at least half of humanity’s current energy production by 2030 (7 years!). This is because of the end of Dales Law - where the power requirement of electronics shrunk as the die size did. So now energy consumption for machine learning is going exponential. We’ll be competing with google et al for electricity. Poor people are f’d.
