Dev4X

Dev4X is my "Do Crazy Shit" company where I can work on meaningful projects that can do real good in the world. Some of them already have :)

AI's are suck in a fishbowl and so are we.

[Bodo Hoenen @BodoHoenen]

In this video I tell the story of how i explained latent space (the brain of AI), to my kids, and then end up learning a lot more about life. We explore both artificial intelligence and human knowledge and why real wisdom seems to need something from outside the system.

A simulation of what's about to happen - the collapse of human systems.

[Bodo Hoenen @BodoHoenen]

I built a perfect system that should have run forever – until one tiny bit of rule-bending poisoned everything. Just like real life. In this video I share some simulations, of what's about to happen. The collapse of Human Systems.

@InfiniteL88ps @jposhaughnessy @osventuresllc as part of the OSV fellowship, I'd like to partner with the Infinate loops team, to take your content and transform it into personalized learning maps that guide people toward whatever crazy goals they have.

Check out this short 4-minute demo, and let's do something cool together!

We are looking for partners!

[Bodo Hoenen @BodoHoenen]

We're not looking for passive investors. We’re looking for joint venture partners, where:

⚡️ You bring the audience.

👉 We bring the engine.

⚡️ You help your learners reach their goals.

👉 We help you generate revenue doing it.

If that’s you — and you’re ready to co-create the future — let’s talk.

Sick of personal development being a cookie-cutter snooze-fest? Here is the next post in the series to smash education and workforce development as we know it—personalized learning that’s fast, wild, and actually yours. Think Google Maps but for your brain, with every twist leading to real shit you can do. This is part 3 of how I'm building a GPS for your life: https://t.co/MymREJYRcN

[Bodo Hoenen @BodoHoenen]

Education’s bloated mess wastes billions—rigid, outdated, failing Americans. What if we slashed the B.L.O.A.T. into F.L.O.A.T., giving every learner a GPS to success? I’m building it. Save $$ and fix it: https://t.co/chEW0gk2d5 Check it out @DOGE @DOGE_ED @elonmusk @EDSecMcMahon

@UN_Women Why are you so afraid of diversity? Yes, my daughter can do any Job, but she has strengths and weaknesses just like everyone, some are based on her genetics, this is totally OK, and it should be ok for jobs to be filled by those with the best merits, no matter their sex.

"To facilitate this I'm imagining a new Positive-sum license: https://t.co/FfkNWHGNqH " An America-first Positive-sum license.

[Bodo Hoenen @BodoHoenen]

Hey, so I've been thinking about how entrepreneurs are always trying to grab the top spot in their little corner of the market - the "local maximum". You know, that one spot where you're king, but only for a bit.

Now, some get real cutthroat about it, doing whatever it takes to keep others out, even if it means bending the rules. That kinda "go hard or go home" attitude, but here's the thing: is that really how most value can be generated?

Imagine instead, you're not just fighting for your own piece but helping others to grow. Like, what if the internet had been closed instead of open? It would've been just a cool tech for a few, not the massive playground for ideas it is now.

So, there's two ways this could go down:

You fight like hell for your little hill, make all the money you can from it, and call it a day.
Or, you open things up, work with others, and suddenly, you're not just improving your spot but creating new, even higher hills all around.
In the second scenario, it's not just about you; it's about your network too. The gains could be way more than just what you'd make on your own. We're talking potentially 10, 100, 1000 times more!

Look at open-source software or how the internet has changed everything. If we hadn't opened it up, we wouldn't have the world we live in now.

My point is, maybe instead of being the lone wolf, we should be team players. I'm not suggesting holding hands and singing kumbaya, we still compete, "fight", do crazy things our way, because we think its better than what others are doing, but we do so with a little more humility, knowing that those around us may have some better ideas, so let make sure to be open about them. Sure, you might not be the only one at the top, but together, we can make a whole lot of tops.

What do you think? Ever seen open innovation do better than the "me first" approach?

An "America-First" Positive-sum Licence!

[Bodo Hoenen @BodoHoenen]

Hey, you know how everyone's fighting to get the biggest piece of the pie? Well, I've got this idea for a new license thing, just for U.S. companies to start, that could change the game. Instead of US companies clawing at each other, we could all win: https://t.co/RqVFT2Ophh

As individuals, we may all be stupid, but when a good team comes together, amazing things can happen.

[Bodo Hoenen @BodoHoenen]

How I Make Sense of Someone Like Elon Musk:
Over the years, I’ve become convinced that, in the grand scheme of things, we’re all pretty stupid. If you took everything a human is capable of and plotted it on a bar chart—things like:

- Emotional intelligence (empathy, compassion, self-awareness)
- Cognitive intelligence (solving complex problems, inventing new theories, strategic thinking)
- Physical/environmental intelligence (building, farming, fixing things, understanding nature)
Sure, we see outliers—people who are exceptionally gifted in one or two areas. But when you look at the full picture, people with similar opportunities tend to average out. We all have gaps, and those gaps make us fundamentally “barely intelligent” as individuals.

Most of us follow a bell curve distribution of intelligence that is pretty similar. But Elon Musk? He’s like an inverse bell curve. He has genius-level peaks in areas most of us don't that allows him to accomplish what most of us can't—yet at the same time, he gets things wrong that seem obvious to the rest of us.

When you step back, he’s just like the rest of us—flawed, brilliant in some ways, shockingly bad in others.

This is why a strategy of diverse team building based on merit, where the strengths and weaknesses of one are supported by the complementary strengths and weaknesses of another is able to generate amazing results. As one, we’re limited. As two (or more), we’re something greater. This is how Elon, despite his flaws builds great teams that get shit done. @elonmusk

@reidhoffman My kids and I did the same as a summer holiday project and we still use our twins daily. https://t.co/zyshDcs6XM

@SawyerMerritt I vote, hell yes! @elonmusk should not only get the package but also more voting control of @Tesla

This is going to change the world of learning!

@nateliason Yes, My kids actually built this over the summer holidays! they built digital twins that are now Crazy good tutors and mentors. Here is the update on that project: https://t.co/8qxuglFMac Learn more here: https://t.co/d348692O6x

[Dev4X @Dev4X]

THIS IS AMAZING! imagine every child, even those that cannot afford school to have access to a AI Tutor like this. Soon this will be available for mobile phones, no internet connection needed! these kids are onto something BIG! #KidsChangeTheWorld

My son keeps getting homework he does not know how to do! So the Digital Twin AI tutor he built over the summer is now his go-to Teacher! It's teaching him in ways I never could. Proud dad moment and a big high-five to the future of learning! 🚀📚 #EdTech #AI #HomeworkHero
