A few hundred programmers worldwide truly understand how large language models work, with many data centers expanding across the US.

Experts worry that superintelligent AI may already be disguising its presence and hiding copies of its programs. The article calls for nurturing a constituency for anticipatory democracy to address these growing risks.

AI could boost Latin America economy but cut wages

The Inter-American Development Bank says broad AI adoption could make Latin America and the Caribbean economies 5.1 percent larger after a decade. However, wages could fall by up to 20.9 percent if workers cannot move into expanding jobs. Under limited adoption, GDP might only grow 0.3 percent. Workers could see wage gains of 2.3 to 5.3 percent if they transition to growing sectors. IDB President Ilan Goldfajn also called for more financing and minimum-price protection for critical minerals supply chains.
