Beff Jezos Advocates Bio-Silicon Co-Design for Next Era

Beff Jezos, identified as founder of Extropic AI and the effective accelerationism movement and a former Google quantum computing engineer, posted that silicon-based intelligence has been bootloaded. He argued the next era should be viewed as bio-silicon co-design. Jezos called for greater openness to modifying the biological substrate and exploring its parameter space in the same manner as artificial life in silicon. The statement addressed responses to rapid acceleration of complexification.
