Anyone know folks working on semiconductors in Taiwan and Abu Dhabi, or on fiber at Tata Industries in Mumbai?
I'm currently travelling around the world and talking to folks about various kinds of AI infrastructure, and looking for recommendations of folks to meet!
If so, freel free to DM me!
(If you don't know me, I'm a dev here on LessWrong and was also part of founding Lightcone Infrastructure.)
Noting that a nicer name that's just waiting to be had, in this context, is "Future of the Lightcone Institute" :)

Can you CC me too?
I work from the same office as John; and the location also happens to have dozens of LessWrong readers work there on a regular basis. We could probably set up an experiment here with many willing volunteers; and I'm interested in helping to make it happen (if it continues to seem promising after thinking more about it).

Mod here: most of the team were away over the weekend so we just didn't get around to processing this for personal vs frontpage yet. (All posts start as personal until approved to frontpage.) About to make a decision in this morning's moderation review session, as we do for all other new posts.
Jake himself has participated in both Zika and Shigella challenge trials.
Your civilisation thanks you 🫡
Cool idea and congrats on shipping! Installed it now and am trying it. One user feedback is I found the having-to-wait for replies a bit frictiony. Maybe you could stream responses in chunks? (I did for a gpt-to-slack app once. You just can't do letter-by-letter because you'll be rate limited).
That's more about me being interested in key global infrastructure, I've been curious about them for quite a lot of years after realising the combination of how significant what they're building is vs how few folks know about them. I don't know that they have any particularly generative AI related projects in the short term.
