Both powers are seeking allies and forming blocs like Pax Silica and WAICO to support their AI ambitions. But what will it take to emerge as the winner in the battle of the AI superpowers? Subscri…
- Cory Doctorow on the Big AI Lie | Downstream with Michael Walker

And they are claims that on Novara, we take seriously. This week's Downstream guest thinks that giving weight to those grand concerns is a mistake. He believes that by talking up the possibility that AI could replace significant amounts of labour - or develop an agency of its own - only serves to exaggera…
