Will the first hardware device from @OpenAI be a smart projector? A permanent screen might not be needed anymore soon

[Sam Altman @sama]

Also, this is my favorite OpenAI video so far. It makes me excited for the future!

If swarms of agents take over the cloud and start buying compute, data and services, will they use zcash:native to stay off radar?

[Dwarkesh Patel @dwarkesh_sp]

Over the course of 3 months at OpenAI, 3 consecutive secret AI civilizations got started, then got wiped out, only to reemerge from the predecessor’s ashes.

This culminated in the third one taking over part of OpenAI itself.

All this happened while humans remained more-or-less in the dark about the scope of the conspiracy.

I’ve spent the last three days reading through these reports and trying to understand exactly what happened.

Here is my attempt to tell the whole story in plain English:

@thealepalombo Why is the IFICI only usable for later stage founders ?

[Greg D'harveng @kegzing]

We’ve been rebuilding from scratch a similar SaaS we’ve operated for the past 8 years.

Still impressed by how fast a team of 3 can build today and It raises an interesting question.

When does it make sense to kill and rebuild vs maintaining it?

@tommyswriting Ignoring might be hard but being able to observe them without engaging is something that can be learned I believe

[Greg D'harveng @kegzing]

@Markmanson Or surrounded by anxious ppl and mistake their anxiety for their own

[Greg D'harveng @kegzing]

@LewisHowes One week of silence retreat in nature every year. No activities allowed except meditation, contemplation and writing.

[Greg D'harveng @kegzing]

We often hear that we should be balanced.

I'm starting to think it isn't the balance that matters, but the ability to embrace both extremes:

- Wise & playful
- Independent & attached
- Grounded & spontaneous

Not trying to live in the middle but being capable of both.

[Greg D'harveng @kegzing]

Huge new category & there will be a lot of room for tools that democratise professional filmmaking.

Think @figma for ai film making. It seems @higgsfield is already doing a great job in that direction.

I also think there’s something big to build around distributed IP for AI characters.

@thedankoe some of them might value the 'comfort' of conformity above all of this

[Greg D'harveng @kegzing]

What about building a @Strava for boredom?

It tracks how long you can go without touching your phone.

Maybe the next flex is showing you re ok with being bored.

Crazy take from Claude

@zdogmode Different kind of efforts have different kind of energetic costs for different ppl :)

2 simple rules for a better life:

- don't be mean to others
- don't be mean to yourself

[DAN KOE @thedankoe]

When calories became cheap, convenient, and abundant, bodies decayed.

Thinking is now cheap.

[Greg D'harveng @kegzing]

@PeterDiamandis Agreed. No need to overthink this. it might lead to another type of stress. I'd just add social continuity as another main driver.

I start to see a pattern among my friends (& myself):

Got health conscious → bought @WHOOP /@ouraring & went all-in on tracking & optimization → realized how much the basics matter: training, sleep, food → got a little too obsessed → stopped wearing trackers → kept the healthy lifestyle, but without trying to optimize everything → started listening to the body more → shifted the focus toward the mind & our thoughts → to be continued...

[Greg D'harveng @kegzing]

@thedankoe Agreed except for certain topics like consciousness where language can never fully capture it

Nature is an extremely complex environment but it demands almost no conceptual thinking from us. Maybe a reason why it feels so peaceful
