“Newton, he developed Newtonian physics and he developed calculus and all these things. But the thing he was really obsessed with was alchemy, which was the thing he could never get to work. And alchemy was the transmutation of lead into gold, which meant the transmutation of something that was very common, which was lead into something that was very rare and valuable, which was gold. He spent decades trying to figure out this thing called the philosopher stone, which would be basically the machine or the process that would be able to transmute the common thing into the rare thing, lead into gold, and he never figured it out. It was incredibly frustrating. Nobody ever figured that out. And now, we literally with AI have a technology that transfers sand into thought. Right? That just blew my mind. The most common thing in the world, which is sand, converted into the most rare thing in the world, which is thought. And so AI, it is the philosopher stone.”
