I think I wrote exactly that, and it is still right. Organizations are a form of narrow superintelligence. My university, or Walmart, can do things that a human cannot, often using complex processes no one designed explicitly. I will go further: the failure to deeply consider how to make AI work together with existing organizational superintelligences is a big reason why we have not yet seen any large impact of AI on scientific discovery or economic productivity despite high levels of AI…

Reminiscing about when people used to say dumb shit like "we already have superintelligence, they're called corporations." Yes, who could forget that fateful day in October when Dicks Sporting Goods dropped dozens of Fields Medal worthy math discoveries on the world all at once.
