@hardeep_gambhir So important. Tech needs to stop building just for tech, and take a good look (esp with AI) around and fund culture and adoption - AI is going to a adoption issue not a technological one, we need to align incentives
AI is the first major tech shift that hasn’t produced a culture yet. Feels kind of hollow, and weird.
Internet gave you a new identity. Mobile gave you a behavior. Crypto gave you a tribe.
Talking to your agents all day by yourself is not a very inspiring activity
Big fan of the current race with AI assistants that do a lot of tasks for us - execution is great.
But why is nobody building around judgement? Now that we have 500 workhorses, there's a more fun problem - figuring out what they should be all doing
Personalised intelligence sometimes surprises you in magical ways.
I captured a thought about my American dream, was chatting, and then it referenced a thought I had later in the day.
Damn!
3/ The system behind this is intent engineering and building the right audit systems to understand this weird black box where the machine interprets, the designer encodes intent…
A cool read that stitches a few great ideas:
- Claw’s dreaming as a shift in personalisation w context
- the early shift we’re seeing to Generative vs static interfaces
- a need to audit the backend w provenance
2/ The era of personalised generative interfaces and software is just getting started. So pumped to see tools that get molded to me, not me learning tools
@TheAnnaGat I host salons in SF and it’s always amazing. Small groups better than large ones! And agree on musicality - set the room, let people feel safe. And then things will flow, and don’t try to force structure!
@david__booth Context capture is also inherently trust based - this an adoption problem that needs to be solved + showing product immediate ROI from providing context, to teach a user this behavior
@thatguybg Context is the greatest unlock of data as a real asset! Lots to learn from history on how to play here. Also inherently a trust based business. Need to be very careful with context.
Not everyone is as naturally charismatic as a Palmer or a Jensen, but anyone can develop their own brand of aura (or auctoritas), set a vision, and recruit a loyal band of true believers to go make it happen
This is what it takes to build a cult
@minafahmi Good framework. We’ve been too highly indexed towards the first two types. Lots of mix/match permutations of what the AI x Human interaction to look like.
Would always get ?? when I told folks I doubled major in Biology / Econ and did Software Investing while also tinkering with Blockchain.
Interdisciplinary FTW
.@Collision is bullish on two types of people: high-agency individuals and double majors.
"There are two categories of people I would be super bullish on right now and I think will do incredibly well over the next 10-20 years. First, high-agency people. The people at Stripe who have been talking to customers and know exactly what we should do. It's the people who have that pep in their step and want to go make Stripe better. They are so much more empowered thanks to AI."
"The second is double majors. I think if you understand software and understand finance, or if you understand software and understand marketing, you now can go massively improve the entire marketing funnel for your company. Now, one person can do what would have taken 20 people dredging through all these systems."
"Charlie Munger talked about the importance of being multidisciplinary and multidisciplinary thinking. He thinks getting a functional understanding of many disciplines is not that hard. You can just go read the books now or you can talk to your AI about it. I think multidisciplinary thinkers are going to do incredibly well."
your chatgpt history is your unfiltered cognition, the stuff you wouldn’t even tweet.
your browsing history is your raw curiosity trail.
your photos are frozen intimacy & accidental self portraiture.
your messages are emotional telemetry.
your mail is the transactional skeleton of your life.
your calendar is the architecture of your past & future.
your location history is where you actually go vs. where you say you go.
your notes are a private brain dump, unpolished truths.
once ai understands all of these at scale, it will unlock the most spiritual experience of your life. like an existential journey into the inner most *you*.
