Happy to share the news of Carry1st acquiring Qene Games' Gebeta. Our team has made history as the first game exit for Ethiopia, and I'm incredibly proud of them. Looking forward to what's to come from Qene Games and the future of gaming in Africa!

Spent some time thinking about this and where the future of content is. My conclusion is that future content will not only be captivating, but also engaging. People have to be involved in the process.

I watched this video of a Chinese marketing lady making like USD 3M in a minute. She was selling some products on a “TikTok” type of app and she was doing it live. I could see the comments just flooding her comment section. Kinda like Twitch or Instagram live. I think we will see more apps like this in the future. Maybe Steve Harvey type of game initially? Questions and answers?

Right mow, it’s mostly comments and maybe polls? From here, it will evolve in 3 levels:

1. Reinforcement learning type of content: you get a couple of suggested answers at each point and choose where you want to drive the story

2. Once agents kick in and people are comfortable with AI, the AI will use all your available info online and offline to create a story that will please you.

3. Lastly, we will have a complete boost in content that the audience didn’t even expect. This will push humanity to new levels of creativity. Basically, I am talking about listening to a podcast about cooking, and before you know it it has taken a turn to jungle exploring in the 1700s, and then talk about biggest soccer star, before coming back to cooking and it all makes sense.

The future is weird, but I am here for it! Can’t wait!

Also saw the attached pic on Insta. People are dying for more interactive content.

I don't ask VCs to sign an NDA.

As a founder, my "idea being stolen" is probably the last thing on my mind.

There are just far more important things to worry about!

@ianmiles Homo sapiens originated in Africa and likely had darker skin as an adaptation to their environment. Lighter skin evolved later as human populations migrated to areas with different levels of sunlight.

And yet, most scientific depictions of human evolution look like this 🤷🏾‍♂️

I got ChatGPT to figure out how to write David Mayer all on it’s own 🙂.

When #small & #medium sized businesses scale up, economy grows. The destruction of one investment for the favour of another is such a disregard for the grit, sweat & hard work it takes to build in #ethiopia. 💔 for building owners & businesses who are silently being broken apart

[Dawit Abraham @DawitAbrahamMB]

@SamRosmarin @aethiop_io @nebex_elias Haha, would be fun definitely!

[Dawit Abraham @DawitAbrahamMB]

@OpenAI and other big tech companies working on AI have the fundamental responsibility of keeping humanity safe from the undesired and unforeseen consequences of a misaligned AGI destroying humanity.

The recent scandal with the firing of @sama scares me deeply. What’s going on?

[Tomas Pueyo @tomaspueyo]

Most ppl are missing the key point regarding OpenAI
This is not standard startup drama
This is literally a fight for the survival of humanity, linked to the original purpose of OpenAI: saving us from the end of the world:

@Akatuski16 @AblenaeD When you buy a new car, it’s value drops the moment you take it out of the store. For that reason, I think it may be smart to buy a used car that’s relatively new (if it has no serious defects). You get better real value for your money. But I’d ask a more knowledgeable person.

@npew GPT-4 performance has SIGNIFICANTLY decreased in the following areas

* Brainstorming ideas
* Quantitative & qualitative reasoning
* Ability to summarize text
* Code generation

I’ve been paying for GPT-4 since it was available. I’m 100% sure about these performance issues!

[Dawit Abraham @DawitAbrahamMB]

It’s unfortunate that ChatGPT has indeed gotten less smart in recent releases. OpenAI actually not seeing this makes the problem even worse.

I’ve been using GPT-4 since it was released and it’s 100% gotten dumber recently.

Back to Googling, I guess 🤷🏾‍♂️

[Peter Welinder @npew]

No, we haven't made GPT-4 dumber. Quite the opposite: we make each new version smarter than the previous one.

Current hypothesis: When you use it more heavily, you start noticing issues you didn't see before.
