@TaylorWAnderson For the purpose of your friend moving here Iโd say walking distance to the emigration Harmonโs. Traditionally Iโd say 1300 S to 9th S from foothill down to 1300 east
Former @UUtah and current @Broncos OT @gbolles72 knows what it's like to face the impossible. After a rough childhood, Bolles found his footing thanks to the right people who saw his potential for true greatness.
"Muse is so slow"
"I asked Grokbot to build me an app that would otherwise cost me $5k and it asked me to login to a tool. UGGHHH"
"One of my 9 $20/month PhD-level AI agents forgot something UGGH"
Every time I hear complaints like these I think of this bit.
I hope everyone gets the experience of finding out who their true friends are and how much they really care. (Preferably without getting cancer.)
Thank you to David, and to everyone who has been there for me over the last few months. I have been overwhelmed by the support.
A powerful message from @ChristoffDTodd on the moral, spiritual, and societal perils of gambling. I was grateful to hear him quote my recent story in @TheAtlantic, but mostly I was just grateful for his wisdom on what I think is an urgent issue.
there are so many everyday demos that could make ai, personal agents, & agents in general feel insanely powerful to normal ppl & yet ai companies keep choosing things like booking flights, planning travel, or god forbid planning a god damn wedding.
these are not everyday problems. theyโre relatively rare events & worse for a lot of ppl theyโre actually part of the joys of life. the best demo should make someone feel pain they already are familiar with disappearing. almost every company gets this wrong. they optimize for spectacle instead of relief which is fine in some cases but it doesnโt last.
one of my favorite historical examples is a product called head on.
the ad showed someone with a headache, then showed them applying the product directly to their forehead while repeating:
โhead on. apply directly to the forehead.โ
beautifully simple. you instantly understood the product, the problem, & the value. ai companies should be doing the same thing.
show me the annoying thing i deal with every single day then make it disappear. itโs not sexy, i guarantee it will work. when jobs demoโed the iphone he picked universal simple problems that the iphone did better than anything else on the fucking planet.
anyway, thanks for coming to my ted talk.
@bryce Lots of people want to start their own business but have no idea where/how to find an investor, you have unlocked an avenue they never knew about
