David Shapiro has been addressing online the development of Frontier models of AI LLMs since at least the earliest days of GPT3. He has a background in coding, and tech jobs that involve managing software tools…as well as an imaginative flair for what the implications are from AI development and its diffusion.
Shapiro has been working on what he calls “Post Labor Economics” (PLE) for a number of years now and has a book about PLE called Labor Zero: AI, Automation, and the Last Employed Generation available for pre-order at Amazon HERE.. Shapiro has a 10 minute YouTube version of Post Labor Economics here.
PSA worked with GPT6 Astra Ultra High to develop a full 38 page PDF report of Shapiro’s ideas based on many documents and sources. Note: section 12 Sources and Further Reading which has active links to the sources.
Shapiro has a paywalled Substack here: https://daveshap.substack.com/
