imo there are a few real moats left assuming no superintelligent RSI scenario

- capital, as money is scarce

- network effects, as human attention is scarce

- relationships, as human attention is scarce

- research talent, assuming there exists some field(s) that AI is unable to surpass the best researchers

- proprietary data and sensors, as systems of record and action are scarce (training data, on the other hand, can maybe we simulated, but I'm pretty bearish in general on the idea of fully simulated data)

Trust. I trust the Debian maintainers. I don't trust OpenAI.

If AI levels out most other distinctions, maybe in the end we choose to give money to people we trust.
