[Dave Blundin @DaveBlundin]

Every business school textbook just became obsolete.

@OrnnExchange uses a Mac Studio that reads all their Slack, email, and meetings transcripts. Any employee just asks it questions instead of scheduling an infinite cycle of meetings.

This is one of many management tactics that didn't exist until this year and it's so dramatically better.

.@shaunmmaguire on what SpaceX employees are going to do with their new wealth from the SpaceX IPO:

“There’s this meme that wives of tech billionaires go on to do NGOs and fund bad causes—SpaceX will be the literal opposite.”

“These people are going to do the most amazing things with their money.”

“Most people that joined SpaceX over 15 years ago—they did it for the mission. Because they love space, and want to build rockets. They want to work with their hands and want to keep America competitive in the space industry.”

“It's self-selected. The people that were there early didn't think it would ever become this big of a company. They didn't do it to get rich. And they got rich very slowly, with very real skills and real experience of how much of the world is designed to take money and do bad things with it.”

“This group of people—we're going to see more beautiful travertine sculptures in cities, just for public art.”

“I think we're going to see a lot of physical whimsy out of the SpaceX crew.”

Mira Murati says frontier AI should be built like a tandem bike:

"Having humans in the loop doesn't quite describe it because it sounds like a checkpoint where we're signing off something, and then you're good to go."

"It's more like creating systems that are not just autonomously advancing and leaving civilization behind, but are more like a tandem bike."

"When you're going up a hill, maybe whoever is stronger is pedaling harder. But both hands are on the wheel. That's quite important because that's a different system. It's a system designed for collaboration."

"It will increase the level of agency that people have, and also it will help us steer the research direction towards creating outputs that are more value-aligned."
