Over the weekend @balajis dropped a blog post that should change your perspective on the future of AI. We’re not heading toward one big AI god that rules everything (monotheistic). We’re heading toward many AIs, built by different people with different values (polytheistic). - Monotheistic AI = one centralized model (like OpenAI) that controls the narrative. - Polytheistic AI = many decentralized models (open-source, nation-specific, community-owned). 3 predictions I find interesting: 1. AI will be shaped by its creators. China's AI won't think like the U.S. A Palestinian-trained model won't answer like an Israeli one. Culture matters. Context matters. There's no "universal" AI. 2. Crypto is key to keeping AI accountable. Closed models = black boxes. On-chain AI = receipts. You can trace where it learns from, how it makes decisions, and who controls it. 3. The future isn't humans vs AI. It's AI vs AI. Competing models will reflect competing worldviews. One AI says "fact," another says "propaganda." Reality itself becomes contested. We're not worshipping one AI god. We're arguing in a pantheon. The future is polytheistic. Full blog:
