The rapid diffusion of LLMs tests the capacity of organisations to bear loads

This was an interesting language by (the increasingly sinister) Alex Karp for something I’d been struggling to articulate: AI imposes loads on organisations, so those organisations with the capacity to bear that load have a huge advantage. He suggests “you just can’t obfuscate what can bear the load and what can’t”. It reveals organisations which have been pretending to bear the loads but are actually full of cracks. Which is exactly what I’ve been arguing with UK higher education. The problem is the timing as much as the technology itself.
