James Rickards
“AI creates its own fog. The more sophisticated the algorithms, the less developers and engineers understand how the output emerges.”
James Rickards, MoneyGPT: AI and the Threat to the Global Economy

Donella H. Meadows
“The limits on a growing system may be temporary or permanent. The system may find ways to get around them for a short while or a long while, but eventually there must come some kind of accommodation, the system adjusting to the constraint, or the constraint to the system, or both to each other. In that accommodation come some interesting dynamics.

Whether the constraining balancing loops originate from a renewable or nonrenewable resource makes some difference, not in whether growth can continue forever, but in how growth is likely to end.”
Donella H. Meadows, Thinking In Systems: A Primer
