@nathanguttman Sounds to me like a Trumpian kind of reflexive answer to a different kind of question: which candidate will he endorse in a red district in Texas or South Dakota. As with most of his delightfully careless utterances, we shouldn’t overanalyze.

Mesmerizing! In China they make denim from Abaca banana stalks from the Philippines…

Wow! @HeyGen_Official just released today ability to have an AI avatar join a Zoom meeting and interact.
I invited one of their AI avatars into a Zoom room and recorded this clip. Time to build my own now

I just watched the roughly 45-minute footage of October 7th at a private screening in NYC. Here are my immediate thoughts minutes after watching it. 🧵

קַדִּישׁ / אסף גור

יִתְגַּדַּל וְיִתְקַדַּשׁ שְׁמֵהּ רַבָּא
וְאַף אֶחָד לֹא בָּא
כַּמָּה אֲלָפִים קָרְאוּ לוֹ בְּשַׁבָּת בַּבּוֹקֵר
זָעֲקוּ אֶת שְׁמוֹ
הִתְחַנְּנוּ בִּדְמָעוֹת שֶׁרַק יָבוֹא
אֲבָל הוּא שָׁבַת מִכָּל מְלַאכְתּוֹ
שׁוּם אֱלֹהִים לֹא הִגִּיעַ
וְשׁוּם אֱלֹהִים לֹא הִרְגִּיעַ
רַק הַשָּׂטָן חָגַג בְּלִי הַפְרָעָה
מְפַזֵּז בֵּין הַקִּיבּוּצִים לִמְסִיבַּת טֶבַח
וְכָתַבְנוּ מוֹסִיף וּמְדַווֵּחַ
בֵּין לְבֵין גַּם מִתְיַיפֵּחַ
שֶׁיֵּשׁ תִּינוֹק שָׂרוּף
וְיֵשׁ תִּינוֹק חָטוּף
יֵשׁ תִּינוֹק יָתוֹם
וְיֵשׁ תִּינוֹק בֶּן יוֹם
מֻטָּל מְחֻבָּר בְּחֶבֶל הַטַּבּוּר לְגוּפַת אִמּוֹ
וְלֹא הִסְפִּיק אֲפִלּוּ לְגַלּוֹת מָה שְׁמוֹ
מָה יֵרָשֵׁם עַל הַמַּצֵּבָה הַקְּטַנְטַנָּה
עִם תַּאֲרִיךְ אֶחָד לַלֵּידָה וְלִפְטִירָה
כָּךְ נִרְאֶה הַקִּיבּוּץ אַחֵר בִּיקּוּר הַשָּׂטָן
מַחֲזִיר אֶת הַשִּׁדּוּר לְאולְפָּן
עַכְשָׁו שֶׁקֶ�� יוֹרִים
יֵשׁ גַּם שִׁגּוּרִים
וְאֵין מֶמְשָׁלָה
וְאֵין רַחֲמִים
וְרַק הַצְּרָחוֹת וְהַתְּמוּנוֹת
לֹא יְיַצְּאוּ לְעוֹלָם מֵהָרֹאשׁ
הַשְּׁבִיעִי בְּאוֹקְטוֹבֶּר
אַלְפַּיִם עֶשְׂרִים וְשָׁלוֹשׁ.

Trump’s to-do list written on top of top-secret documents:

1. Steal more top-secret documents (they make great notepads)
2. Schedule tee time (can’t forget to cheat)
3. Pay my lawyers (use donor money)
4. Stop accidentally admitting I lost the election
5. Stop paying off porn stars

Fall is coming, teachers. With few exceptions, you cannot teach the same way you did last year

What are your AI policies? AI use is undetectable and is used in ways that are not clearly plagiarism

How will you change assignments? Essays, cases, and more don't work the same way

@PeterDiamandis @FutureloopNews What gives? Why is it so hard to subscribe to this? You built a great AI-driven futures free newsletter, but every semester my students have difficulty subscribing to it. Please fix this!

[Erran Carmel @excarmel]

@DariaLamb @iftf Wonderful talk today! Kudos. Structured, thoughtful, with real content. Twice you mentioned a recent longitudinal study of the impact for companies prepared for the future. Where is that study?

@Freakonomics The paying-ransom-to-the-Taliban podcast was one of your best ever. Congrats.

Growing up in MD, it was so embarrassingly awful that our state song was an ode to the Confederacy. @RepRaskin has written a wonderful new version we can take pride in: https://t.co/9XPl7EQwyR - is there anything that guy can’t do? (Well I am glad he got pros to play/sing it.)

"Neighborhood nodes" is the interesting prediction in this article. #InnovationEcosystem .... Anyone moving to Reno, Nevada??
Creative clustering was #SiliconValley's secret sauce. What happens when tech workers go remote, for good? https://t.co/Sjgcg3ViPx via @citylab
