Why is the tech industry in the SF Bay Area?

@naval: My thesis is, at the time the tech industry was forming, the key people who were forming it were wealthy, creative, capable, worked in small teams, and were remote. So they looked around and said, “What’s the best part of the country to live in that isn’t already taken over by somebody else?” I'm not even sure they thought it through that explicitly, but they voted with their feet. And once they’d gotten here, path dependency took over.

Finally, we have a hallucination leaderboard! 😍😍

Key Takeaways

📍 Not surprisingly, GPT-4 is the lowest.

📍 Open source LLama 2 70 is pretty competitive!

📍 Google's models are the lowest. Again, this is not surprising given that the #1 reason Bard is not usable is its high hallucination rate.

Really cool that we are beginning to do these evaluations and capture them in leaderboards!

A new report by Financial Times shows AI tools like ChatGPT are transforming knowledge work.

Interestingly, low-performing employees are seeing the biggest benefit.

The key for workers — becoming "cyborgs" and "centaurs," meshing AI into workflows vs handing off tasks.

Ukraine’s🇺🇦 anthem at the Latvian National Song & Dance celebration, where 30k participants and 100s thousands spectators gather every five years.

Impressive and very moving. Let it give strength to #Ukraine in the Liberation War.

I love the Russian people. That is why I have to tell you the truth. Please watch and share.

Advocating an end to remote work in 2022 is like advocating that people stop using microcomputers in 1977. For the most productive companies, that ship has already sailed.

It is regrettable that many Western commentators repeated Putin’s narrative that the problem came from an aggressive NATO expansion aimed at encircling Russia.

Time for a reset of narratives. Here are some simple insights, informed by our work on the game theory of alliances. 🧵

The mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) are kind of brilliant at a science level. I’ve had a few people in my real non-Twitter life ask me to explain how it works so I’m going to try my best here in this thread while I’m waiting for a patient to show.
