He’s not talking about “IQ” intelligence…like, we will all be stupid, and will have to pay them to think for us.
He’s talking about information. The kind of “intelligence” that governments gather about other governments, or members of the public.
Which is still fucked up, because he’s implying that they will know everything about everyone, and they will eventually charge a subscription fee for access to that information.
He also means that, but he means “intelligence” in the other sense too. They talk all the time about outsourcing our own memories and thinking to chatbots; they want to make everyone illiterate and reliant on machines to do all their thinking for them.
I think if he had intent behind the choice in dropping “artificial” he means to equate AI models with human intelligence. “Intelligence” in your framing is definitely a subset of the data they wish to have exclusive to their platform. They may also want to generate such intel by capturing the interface between human and computer such that targets with poor ops sec would spill the beans to their AI gf.
They’ve abstracted the sexy dtf spy into whatever grok is.
