@matthewstoller $39,324B v 100B. You make a point. It’s a clearly thoughtless and uninformed point, but it’s a point, alright!

@Normsmusic She is clearly a moron to so confidently make such an obviously uneducated, unresearched claim.

@ThePrimeagen @rjturek I’m living my best life with AI, and I *can* program my way out of a paper bag (about 30 years worth of paper bags). It’s extremely frustrating at times, but you know what else is frustrating? Trying to interop dcom and non MS Java in 1996.

[Jef Newsom @jef]

@satyanadella I think the potential for human amplification is *still* the big bet, but we need to equip people on how to dream and how to realize the dreams with AI. Companies that invest in that now rather than laying off to appease the bean counters will win over the next 5 years.

@DissentFu Have you taken any risks?

[Jef Newsom @jef]

@LoganDobson Most of them think common core math was a good idea, so that should calibrate “love science!” right about “love desperate housewives!”

[Jef Newsom @jef]

@Austen Definitely annoying. And now I have three more accounts than I did previously 🤣. Time to work, Claude!
