Import AI Newsletter
Newsletter (Digital)
AI is likely the most transformative technology ever invented; Import AI is a newsletter that tries to document the frontier of AI research and analyze its potential implications.
The greatest challenge of the 21st century is to make an increasingly fast-moving technical world ‘legible’ to a large number of people. My belief is that by solving these information asymmetries, we will naturally build the infrastructures necessary to maintain stability in an era of great change and possibility. Import AI is my attempt to help with this.
