Chamath foresees an AI World end-state with 1 to 500 million companies that are one to two person teams that can build stuff.
He sees this as a logical end-state.
This will be a hyperproductive world.
This would be a large language model and humanoid robot abundant world.
A lot of financial engineering goes away in that world.
China’s government is calling for the Rapid Development of Humanoid Robots.
China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued a nine page guideline a few days ago:
⦿ Establish a humanoid robot innovation system, make breakthroughs in key technologies and ensure supply of core components, by 2025
⦿ Humanoid robots should become an important new engine of economic growth by 2027
⦿ Humanoid robots in the manufacturing sector is a priority
⦿ Directed the industry to focus on the brain, cerebellum and limbs of humanoid robots, led by breakthroughs in AI
It’s projected that by 2030, China’s market scale for humanoid robots will reach 870 billion yuan, as reported by the Xinhua News Agency.

I think it was the novel Accelerando, by Charles Stross, a story about a family passing through “the Singularity,” where all the corporations didn’t just use AIs, they were AIs.
The added productivity will make things so cheap that being poor will be much easier to bear. If the AI or the members of these one or two person businesses are willing to throw a couple of bucks in my tin I can live pretty well.
I won’t be throwing a nickel into your tin cup. Buy your own robot.
My lease doesn’t allow for pets, motorized exercise equipment or artificial intelligences. So I’m SOL.
