현재는 AI 모델 최적화가 중심이지만 곧 과학 연구, 신약 개발, 하드웨어 등 객관적 목표를 정량화하고 최적화할 수 있는 모든 분야로 확장될 것이며, 장기적으로는 인간의 '행복'까지도 최적화 대상이 될 수 있다는 전망을 제시합니다.

Today I'm in the mood of expressing gratitude for the work of colleagues that influenced and inspired me. Plus, it's the #IWD26 so, here we are.
TLDR - if you're interested in complex systems and AI, do yourself a favor: read works by @melaniemitchell
Specifically, a great introductory work on complex systems is her book "Complexity: A Guided Tour" - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5597902-complexity
About AI, I suggest her more recent "Artificial Intelligence: A Guide for Thinking Humans" - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43565360-artificial-intelligence
If you don't want to take my words for granted, take a peek at her substack - https://aiguide.substack.com/ - you will get a taste of her unique mix of competence, depth of analysis, and clarity.
You can thank me later.
