  2. Machines of Loving Grace: Dario Amodei's Vision for a Better World with AI

    Machines of Loving Grace: Dario Amodei's Vision for a Better World with AI

    I recently started reading Dario Amodei's essay, 'Machines of Loving Grace: How AI Could Transform the World for the Better,' and found it incredibly insightful but quite lengthy.  To make it more digestible and something that I can take during my walks, I converted it into an audio narrated version using ElevenLabs. If you'd prefer to listen rather than read, you can check out the audio version here. Just wanted to share it in case anyone else is interested. Enjoy!
