Like today I realized in a group chat, I am a Rawlsian accelerationist. r/acc ftw

[Roy E. Bahat @roybahat]

Exciting.

I worry we may see this kind of thing escalate if things keep unfolding on current path

[Stephen Council @stephencouncil]

OpenAI workers found body bags outside their HQ this morning, placed in protest of tech companies’ work with the military.

The banner includes names of children killed in the US bombing of an Iranian school. Senators are pressing the DoD to release its findings about the strike.

Welcome our sixth guest on This Is Not Advice, Rabbi @noakushner...

Watch here or anywhere you can find podcasts: https://t.co/yx5dS89oad

[Roy E. Bahat @roybahat]

New episode of This Is Not Advice 🎤

I want you to be able to learn from people who are great at what they do, so you can feel more empowered in what you do.

In this episode I speak with Rabbi Noa Kushner, founder of The Kitchen and author of Pretend You Believe.

[Roy E. Bahat @roybahat]

Rabbi Kushner also talks about being a leader in an occupation without a long history of female predecessors, the nature of prayer, and more.

@kevin2kelly "Why I give" is definitely something I can do! Thank you...

@NickAllardice Classy of you.

[Roy E. Bahat @roybahat]

@NickAllardice @NickAllardice just DM'd you because WHOOPS I titled the second part of my piece, um, almost identically to yours, and if you want me to change it, I will! (Perils of not paying enough attention.)

[James Cham @jamescham]

You are optimized for enjoying and solving social puzzles rather than logic puzzles, and we should design systems accordingly.

[Roy E. Bahat @roybahat]

@firstadopter Kind of you Tae! Maybe we learned it all playing videogames.

[Roy E. Bahat @roybahat]

@kevin2kelly I think that after trying to explain that to folks, I'm unsure if I know how to ever convince anyone. Would love if others can do, and I will sit with that idea, too.

I'm unsure if I can even account for myself, other than the fact I love it...

[Roy E. Bahat @roybahat]

@NaithanJones I am... taking this in. I don't have the words yet, beyond that people like you make work like mine worth doing. Thank you feels too small.

[Roy E. Bahat @roybahat]

@kevin2kelly Kind of you to ask. I will make and send, probably tomorrow! Have had this same problem with others. AI builders often live here but too many others do not!

@JohnFabianWitt P.S. This image was a ChatGPT two shot, because I had to ask it to reformat for 5:2 proportions here (and use good composition, like rule of thirds)
