Things are getting even stranger:
Peter Thiel is giving a series of lectures on the biblical Antichrist, organized by the Acts 17 Collective. “Acts” stands for “Acknowledging Christ in Technology and Society”.
In these talks, Thiel argues that the time is ripe for the Antichrist to rise to power, promising peace and safety by strangling technological progress with regulation.
He has previously suggested that Greta Thunberg could be the Antichrist. Now he's being more cagey about who's the lucky winner.
But okay: regulating big tech will bring in the Antichrist.
Meanwhile, NVIDIA announced that it intends to invest up to $100 billion in OpenAI, who in turn promises to build 10 gigawatts worth of data centers using NVIDIA tech - but in undisclosed locations, working with partners who have not yet been named. It may not ever happen, but it looks like circular financing where NVIDIA pays to get Sam Altman to buy its stuff, and the investors actually funding this are supposed to go along with it.
The Antichrist is looking better every day....
