I didn’t come with the electricity idea, it was Sam Altman saying it will be like a utility down the line and metered[0]. What would the “electronics” be in your opinion?

Altman is a salesman selling flimflam to people who should know better.

His idea of metering is predicated on the thing he’s selling being AGI, it is not, and all his predictions have turned to dust.

Also that isn’t how metaphors work - they illuminate by comparison, if the comparison is not close they are not useful.

		If it is metered and like a utility, Sam Altman will not benefit alone. All the models will have plateaued and you can swap for any of them. Then the only differentiator is the harness. I don’t believe in AGI, but that doesn’t mean I don’t find AI useful. I just understand that the correct harness can take them to the next level.
