The amount of dollars that exist in this economy is mindblowing. Ten years ago, we were talking millions, and this was already incredible when companies could raise a couple of them.

Now, headlines are only about hundred of billions. I do not know what to think about that, apart from the fact that I wish that we were putting that money to enhance human lives in general. Of course, people will say that these tools will help humans in the future, but 1) at what costs, and 2) I would prefer, I don't know, bridges or infrastructure, or free healthcare, or food for everyone.
