Any person who doesn't know the difference between Star Wars and Star Trek is no friend of mine.

The World Economic Forum predicts US dominance will collapse by 2030, ushering in a multipolar world. This shift could redefine democratic values and may challenge civil liberties. #Geopolitics #WorldOrder #WEF

I have no interest in watching Game of Thrones, but what was so bad about the final season?

[Universo Game of Thrones @universo_got]

Neste dia, há 15 anos atrás, Game of Thrones estreava na televisão.

A série se tornou um fenômeno inalcançável, que transformou a indústria e se manteve até hoje como a mais premiada de todos os tempos.

APPLIED AI LITERACY IS NOT "LEARN TO CODE." IT IS LEARN TO READ.

yesterday Jensen Huang told @lexfridman: "i think we've achieved AGI."

the same day, Anthropic shipped Claude Computer Use. an AI that operates your entire computer autonomously. one tweet about it got 2.4 million views: "R.I.P. college kids who wanted jobs."

meanwhile Dell, Block, Atlassian, and others are laying off tens of thousands. executives i've spoken to are very resistant to hiring junior people unless they have strong applied AI skills.

a conversation with Ian Newell from @openteamsinc crystallized something for me. we've been saying applied AI literacy is "the new learn to code." but it's bigger than that.

applied AI literacy is learn to read. it's that foundational.

not understanding what AI can do for your business, your career, your community is the new illiteracy. i'm biased because that's why i founded Applied AI Society. but i believe it with my whole chest.

new newsletter just dropped. field notes from SXSW, a growing conviction, and what we're building next.

A research paper just called ChatGPT a "web browser of the collective unconscious."

Carl Jung said there's a shared psychic layer underneath all human thought — myths, archetypes, inherited patterns nobody authored but everyone carries.

We trained a machine on everything humans ever wrote.

What did we build?

The Roman Empire's fall? Economic mismanagement and corruption. Parallels are drawn to modern nations like Iran, facing similar collapse risks and potential conflict. #History #Geopolitics
