   I found these concluding remarks in a piece about Peter Thiel and his   
   lectures on the Antichrist somewhat pertinent . . . .   
      
   Tan said he thought Thiel’s comparison of potential overregulation of AI   
   to the Antichrist was “thought-provoking” and a “somewhat   
   tongue-in-cheek” use of the concept. “These are useful mental frameworks   
   for how technology interacts with society,” he said.   
      
   Overregulation of nuclear power has worsened the climate crisis, he   
   added. “What if we do that to the age of intelligence? The future won’t   
   repeat but it will rhyme.”
