Import AI 469: Jack Clark Pins Zuckerberg's 'The Future is for Everyone' on One Unexamined Assumption About Who Superintelligence Works For
In the 2026-08-17 issue, Clark reads Zuckerberg's essay proposing wide distribution of superintelligence as a hedge against power concentration, and identifies the gap: the essay assumes systems capable of invention will inherently serve individual empowerment, without ever addressing whether such systems would "solely work on behalf" of less capable humans or simply restructure global power in ways nobody modelled. The same issue covers DiG-bench and a browser-based recursive-self-improvement simulator from Paradigm Research that forces the player to trade researchers against compute and data licensing — a rare hands-on intuition pump for how RSI inputs interact.
