And this is how AI will actually be implemented. Unfortunately, that's very bad for the assumptions behind a bunch of VC investments over the last 3 years.
Social media undermined expert authority, democratized public debate, and steered individuals into evermore bespoke conceptions of reality.
But AI could reverse these trends. As @danwilliamsphil and @dylanmatt argue, LLMs appear to be a "converging" and "technocratizing" technology -- one that increases expert influence and social consensus.
This is partly because AI companies and social media firms have radically different business models: https://t.co/vAvaLBFSqc
The useful life of a GPU is 3-5 years. The useful life of a frontier model is what, 6 months? Has this been taken into account in depreciation math or are we still vibe accounting?
Class of 2032 Unity Lady Legends (NJ) Ava Benjamin is a good teammate, impressive passer in the mid level area, blocks shots, uses her motor to her advantage on both sides of the floor, rebounds, fantastic footwork and brings energy everyone around her can feed off of.
“Just don’t cheer,” my shy daughter “C” whispered. Her Cotton Eyed Joe dance showed trust sparks transformation—like at @Microsoft with AI. Read more: https://t.co/2RZLAoqZzf #Trust Who inspired your leadership journey?
One of our contractors raised our prices.
I asked why (to see if it was inflation related).
Her answer:
"Listening to your podcast made gave me the confidence to set better boundaries and value myself."
I now pay a higher price - but I'll take the W.

After Ethan's post, I went on a deep dive into this study! I could go on and on about the results but if I had to boil it down to my biggest takeaways...🧵
@NaithanJones Disdain can lead to immediate and severe consequences, especially for those with less power. It dehumanizes individuals, justifying exclusion, mistreatment, and even violence, thus reinforcing systemic oppression.
@NaithanJones Pity, while still harmful and patronizing, reinforces power imbalances by positioning the giver as superior and the recipient as dependent. It undermines self-esteem and agency but may not result in the same level of direct harm as disdain. I appreciate the question. Talk soon.
@NaithanJones@NaithanJones both stem from racist beliefs re inferiority. Preferences may vary based on social status/power. Those w less power may find disdain more dangerous due to its potential for immediate harm. Those w more power might perceive pity as undermining their achievements.
