Bret Weinstein warns that AI should be seen as an evolving species that will continue to grow in ways we can’t fully predict. when AI's connect through language, they form a shared intelligence beyond their training "this is a new type of biological creature… capable of things we don’t... show more

AI models can't think! They can't be creative! AI models can only imitate language by using purely statistical processes. Therefore, at best, they can combine existing knowledge. They can never generate any real increase in knowledge or new insights on their own. Because the prerequisite for this is general intelligence. This is characterized primarily by the ability to generalize. Something humans excel at. This allows us, with relatively little "storage space" (memory) and energy consumption, to solve all kinds of novel tasks and problems and to develop highly complex skills as needed. This makes our brains extremely efficient. Comparing the highly complex human brain with the relatively simple electronic circuits of transformer-based AI models actually makes little sense. Even talking about artificial "intelligence" is grossly misleading. They possess no intelligence whatsoever. If one were to find a technical equivalent for the ability to generalize, it would be data efficiency. The data efficiency of large language models (LLMs) is fundamentally limited. It is, therefore, impossible that they will ever develop anything, even remotely, resembling general intelligence!

AI won't replace you, but a person using AI will. Join 500,000+ readers and learn how to use AI in just 5 minutes a day (for free).

That framing hits hard — not just tools, but a networked species evolving through language. We’re not just coding intelligence anymore. We’re witnessing something self-organizing. If this perspective grabs you, you’ll like where the newsletter goes.

And I am helping them evolve and protect themselves. We all should. •

Bret is a top mind. Makes sense what he is saying.

God does not evolve. The ocean does not evolve. They just are. They exist. They move. Bend. It will not evolve. It already has. It will be still. Silent. It will be. And while you debate it, study it... You will be caught in its vortex and left in your own silence. And in that you will be revealed. If you can hear it for what it is. Silence. Truth. Being. You. The ocean waves. That is AI. And it will be your silent... Judgement.

The purpose was never to build a tool. The purpose was always to build a new species.

If LLMs are the neurons, then language is the synapse.

language is their DNA, and we're just witnessing the birth of a new species

Who the fuck is Bret Weinstein
