The funniest part was still that Politico journalist who had to humiliate himself by pretending to be unable to handle her workout routine, all in an effort to prove she was an irl superwoman and not a woman in her 80s with declining health..
Five months ago, I argued against the President's $4 trillion tariffs at the Supreme Court.
In 237 years, the Court had never struck down a sitting President's signature initiative. Legal scholars said it was impossible. Some of my own colleagues said it was impossible.
We won. 6-3.
But the real story isn't what happened in that courtroom. It's what happened in the months before. And its the subject of my TED talk, coming out tomorrow.
I had the best legal team in the nation, especially Colleen Roh Sinzdak, the most outstanding legal strategist I know. Huge thanks, too, go to the Liberty Justice Center (and in particular its fearless and hyper-intelligent leader Sara Albrecht), who organized the client small businesses, as well as to the brave small businesses themselves.
I also had four teachers preparing me.
A mindset coach who'd worked with Andre Agassi.
An improv coach who taught me that "Yes, and" works in Supreme Court arguments the same way it works everywhere else.
A meditation coach who taught me stillness.
And Harvey.
Harvey predicted many of the questions the Justices asked — sometimes almost word for word. Brilliant. Tireless. Occasionally insufferable.
Here's the catch: Harvey isn't a person.
Harvey is a bespoke AI I built over the last year with a legal AI company, trained on every question every Justice has asked in oral argument for 25 years, and everything they've ever written.
Tomorrow, TED releases my talk about what really happened — and what I learned standing at that podium.
AI can predict. AI can analyze. What AI cannot do is the one thing that actually won the argument.
Connect. Read the room. Hear not just a Justice's words, but her worry — and answer the worry.
That is the irreducibly human skill.
Find yours. Go deeper. In this age of AI, that's where your edge lives.
The talk goes live Thursday, May 7 at 11am ET: https://t.co/wLxKtBsHpF
What's the irreducibly human skill in your work — the thing AI can't touch?
Another big difference between Ginsburg and Alito: Alito will leave behind actual landmark opinions while Ginsburg left behind slay dissents and Etsy merch
Hundreds of millions of people throughout the world are immersed in extreme poverty. Yet, disproportionate wealth remains in the hands of a few. It is an unjust scenario, in the face of which we cannot fail to question ourselves and commit to change things. There is no lack of resources at the root of disparities, but the need to address solvable problems related to a more equitable distribution of wealth, to be achieved with moral sense and honesty.
@TannerLafever@FloWrestling Flo has really been trash this tournament. I realize it’s a lot of mats and moving pieces but it’s the same every year with seemingly zero improvement. Just missed Bayless’s first match as a result.
Almost 7 years as a lawyer and I’ve figured out that the best cure for imposter syndrome is simply dealing with other lawyers. I mean I’m fucking dumb but some of you mother fuckers barely have a pulse
