İnanılmaz bir zamanlama!
Bir yolcu, uçağın penceresinden Everest Dağı’na tırmananları görüntüledi. Görüntü dünya da viral oldu.

Sizce bu kusursuz bir anın yakalanışı büyük bir şans değil mi?

I have kids. I work in AI every day. And honestly? I have no idea what their careers will look like in 15 years. But I know what will carry them through.

First, and this might sound unromantic: make money and save it for them. We can debate educational philosophy all day, but the world is changing so fast that financial security might be the most practical gift we can give. Buy some gold bars. Seriously.

Second, nurture their imagination. AI rewards people with initiative and wild ideas. The kid who daydreams, who asks weird questions, who wants to try ten things at once? That kid will thrive. AI can execute. AI can be disciplined. What AI can't do is dream up something nobody's thought of before.

Third, build resilience. There are no more iron rice bowls (guaranteed lifetime jobs). Any stable, predictable job is exactly the kind of job AI will learn to replace. Our kids will likely switch directions many times in their lives. Learn something new, get replaced, pivot, repeat. It's more like being a hunter than a farmer. Schools don't teach this. Schools teach you to follow a linear path: high school, college, grad school, stable job. That linear path is becoming the most dangerous one.

Last, invest in their ability to connect with other humans. Not networking. Not schmoozing. Real emotional connection. Building trust, offering support, making people feel seen. As AI handles more of the rational, analytical work, the human ability to genuinely relate to other humans becomes more rare and more valuable.

I don't have all the answers. But I know that imagination, resilience, and genuine human warmth aren't going out of style anytime soon.

Nobody talks about how running changes the way you eat, sleep, think, and spend your time until suddenly you’re a completely different person and you can’t explain when it happened.

There’s a story our culture that a packed calendar means you’re productive.

That’s bullshit.

Back to back meetings fry your nervous system and deplete your energy. Your creativity disappears. By the end of the day, you’re running on fumes.

The best work happens in open space.
