@geoffmulgan City as agent of change is something I've written a blog about to publish in a few weeks before our budget but it might get edited to be more straight. I was going to use London partnership as a case but could use these - thanks!
@geoffmulgan Very timely. We are testing something here in Auckland which I had conceptualised this way and have shared around but some resistance to local and central govt working piece (beyond infrastructure which is captured by linear thinking)
I was so lucky to be able to have Danny Kahneman as a best friend and collaborator for decades. He usually ended our conversations with "to be continued..." but I now have to simulate his part which is impossible. My favorite image of us "working".
Here's my conversation with Mark Zuckerberg, his 3rd time on the podcast, but this time we talked in the Metaverse as photorealistic avatars. This was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. It really felt like we were talking in-person, but we were miles apart ๐คฏ It's hard to put into words how awesome this was for someone like me who values the intimacy of in-person conversation. It gave me a glimpse of an exciting future with many new possibilities and fascinating questions about the nature of reality and human connection โค

@BenThomasNZ People can hate on KO all they want but what they are doing is totally baddass and the people are professional legends - they are working at a scale that changes things. it's a success story - Auckland is better because of them.
Join the incredibly innovative dynamic duo @Kateannasutton & @yeoro on this upcoming EXecutive Masterclass: #Web3 & Blockchain Edition ๐

After @EdSheeran tragically exploded onto the music scene, my dreams of being a pop star were cut short.
But I did what I had to do - including constantly mock my own music - to somehow stay relevant.
Today, people barely remember me.
Never EVER give up.
