Revolut CEO Nik Storonsky on why it’s easier for founders to build great businesses than professional CEOs:
“Professional CEOs optimize certain metrics, but they’re not 10X people.”
“They're just there for their bonuses effectively for 3-4 years. As a result, they don't make bold decisions. They always play defense. They never play offense.”
“Professional CEOs, ultimately their goal is to protect their job. They think about themselves and the company as two entities. I think about myself and the company as one entity.”
“It's much easier to compete against non founders. If I would be competing with all the banks and they were all founder-led, as a world, we would all have much better products by now. That's not what's happening.”
Marc Andreessen: the people who invent a technology are "the least qualified" to predict what it does to jobs.
Geoffrey Hinton, who helped invent modern AI, predicts "rampant unemployment" and UBI.
On David Senra's Founders podcast, Andreessen explained why he doesn't buy it, with a story about Thomas Edison.
"The one I'll pick on is Geoffrey Hinton, who's an actual self-declared socialist... and people ask him, 'What's the future of AI?' And of course, he says, 'It's going to be rampant unemployment, and we'll need to give UBI to everybody.' It's like, what a coincidence, the answer from a socialist is communism... But people think, because he's one of the inventors of AI, that he must be the guy who knows."
"For him, it was just obvious that the application of the record player was that everybody would buy a record player, and then everybody would buy a library of discs that would be... religious sermons from all the great preachers of the time... And of course, the record player drops, and immediately, of course, it's music. It's ragtime, and swing, then it's jazz. And Edison's just completely horrified."
"If Edison didn't know what the phonograph was going to get used for, the idea that... whatever, Joe AI entrepreneur is going to be able to forecast the economic implications... You're like, 'No. That's not going to happen.' And in fact, the people who invent the technology are often the least qualified people to understand the long-term implications, because they're too buried in the specifics of the here and now."
"And by the way, I don't know if there's anybody that can predict big cultural, or economic or social trends, but it's certainly not somebody who's been in the lab for 20 years, including myself."

Blackstone CEO Stephen Schwarzman says in 1-2 years the market will realize Citrini’s SaaS thesis was “way overdone”
“There was a small hedge fund that published a report that panicked the market and said that basically every software company is going to go bankrupt in the next two years.”
“I was with the head of one of the three big AI companies. He said the software industry going bankrupt in two to three years is absolutely absurd. He said, we sell AI and tokens to these companies, they're going to be improving their businesses and there'll be a certain percentage of software companies that are mispositioned for this new world.”
“I think we'll see that it'll take a year or two to play out that this was way overdone. But once you panic people, it's tough to calm them down.”
Blackstone CEO Stephen Schwarzman reveals how a 2015 bus ride with Jack Ma led to his firm being the world’s largest data center owner
“We did see the whole AI revolution, and that's just because of an accident. When I was in China in 2015, sitting on a bus with Jack Ma, who is the founder of Alibaba, and he started talking about that.”
“I literally had no idea what he was talking about, and he explained that this would be the most consequential technological change which would change the world.”
“So I have a bunch of academic relationships, one of whom was the head of MIT. He said, ‘Jack's underselling this’. So I said, ‘how do you know?’ He said, ‘because we invented AI at MIT.’”
“And we positioned the firm at Blackstone in this unique way where we bought a very large data center, a company, in 2021 for $10 billion. It's now 15 times larger.”
“We're the largest owner of data centers in the world. That puts us in touch with the six hyperscalers, because we work for all of them. So we know what's happening almost everywhere in this ecosystem.”

Benim bir sunum hazırlamam lazım. Notları, içindekiler, başlıklar, görseller her şey hazır. Bunları modern bir sunum haline getiren uygulama bileniniz var mı?
Ben biraz sunum konusunda takıntılıyım. Tasarım renk, logo kullanımı, bunları önemseyen?
Sonra düzenleme yapabileceğim?
@GscoutX@acikcontent@oktayarslan@ProfHasanMandal Bakın bu durum belki de akademideki en büyük sorunlardan biri durumda şuan!
@erolozvar ders sayılarını azaltın diyor! neredeyse yarı yarıya azaltmadan bahsediyor. e nasıl olacak?
Lütfen zorunlu ders kuralı kalksın!
Bu kadar verimsizlik çok çok kötü
Bu sorun akademisyenin değil
@GscoutX@acikcontent@oktayarslan@ProfHasanMandal yüzünden hem o yeni dersler ders planına eklenemiyor, hem de o akademisyenlerin pek de geçerliliği olmayan dersleri öğrenci almak zorunda kalıyor.
Bu tarz bir dersle öğrenci ilgilenmediği için verim alamıyor, o seviyede bir akademisyen de yeni yöntemlerle dersi güncelleyemiyor!
