Peter Thiel interview: 50 years of stagnation, AI is civilization's last self-help?

"Interview with Peter Thiel: Can AI become a self-rescue solution after fifty years of stagnation of civilization?"<br /> Sleepy<br /> Editor's note: Conversations with Peter Thiel are often full of tension. He refused to pander to the presuppositions of the questioner and never offered cheap reassurance. While Silicon Valley fell into a dualistic debate between "accelerationism" and "doomsday", the thinker, in an interview with Mathias Döpfner, CEO of Axel Springer Group, woven the continued stagnation of the physical world, the contract metaphor of Goethe's "Faust", the outline of the emerging global authoritarian system, and the sharp assertion that "99% of leaders are completely incompetent" into a tight cognitive network. This dialogue took place on the high-end interview platform created by Depffner, and its ideological edge is particularly eye-catching in the current public opinion field.
