I think the section on AI from Zero to QED (a proofs in Lean/lang guide) gives a sober path forward from the perspective of market-makers and trading:

"Imagine market infrastructure where agents must prove, before executing, that their actions satisfy regulatory constraints, risk limits, fairness properties, and eventually machine-checkable proofs of Pareto efficiency of market mechanisms. This is a big, hairy, ambitious goal. Not “we reviewed the code” but “the system verified the proof.” The agent that cannot demonstrate compliance cannot act."

I dream of a future where before any software is released we can predict 100 years into the future what effect it will have on every living thing and not release it if unhappiness delta for some living thing falls below a certain threshold.


That would require making the behavior of the living things part of the formal specification, which isn’t really possible.


It has and it hasn't. There's modders in the scene who I refuse to use mods from because I know they also have developed cheats.

All of the same supply chain issues you have with packages in a programming ecosystem exist in VS's mod system.


So now that another admin is in power, it's useful to have accurate numbers. But during the last several administrations, job posting numbers were used to backstop failing economic activity, especially post covid.

I'm not mad it's happening, I'm mad it's taken this long to do.


I don't think it's related. This proposal if I understood hasn't reached any political sphere, it's just a grassroots effort.
