Bonjour M. Villeroy de Galhau, j’ai écouté attentivement votre intervention ce matin au sujet de l’impôt plancher sur les ultra-riches il y a une incompréhension que je souhaiterais lever

@ryangrim and the worst part is that the actual fundamental innovations came from public research and open-sourced efforts , not from their private investment programs. these only gave birth to enshittified platforms and metaverses 😂
This doesn’t seem to be getting enough attention. The Silicon Valley social contract forced on the public by Obama and then Trump and then Biden (minus Lina Khan) and now Trump was straight forward: We will let these bros become the richest people in human history and in exchange they will develop a tech industry that makes the U.S. dominant for a century.
They did the first part, then built monopolies to try to keep out competition rather than continue to innovate at a top level, and then got out-competed by Chinese companies in both AI and social media. They are the losers we always thought they were — and now so are we.
Now is probably the time to announce that I've been writing a book about @OpenAI, the AI industry & its impacts. Here is a slice of my book reporting, combined with reporting from the inimitable @cwarzel. Inside the year of chaos that led to this weekend. https://t.co/6sRzvHHdLY
I believe starting a company is like jumping off a cliff and assembling a plane on the way down -- your willingness to jump is your most valuable asset as an entrepreneur.
a lot of the magic of ChatGPT is nothing to do with AI, it’s just nice to consume high-quality internet content without ads or whacky custom formatting.
the sad thing is, this isn’t a technology problem at all, it’s a business model, copyright & incentive problem. and I’m not sure ChatGPT has figured that out.
@sellieyoung Decentralised investment and innovation, free worker communities, direct consumer-producer market! I'll share more soon, itm rooting for common action 💪
The end of the free (unpaid) internet is happening right now before our eyes. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but let's work to ensure it doesn't also mark the end of the free (freedom) internet.
