There's a big difference between someone who knows something because they've experienced it versus read about it.

It's like the difference between a company that built from direct user knowledge versus cloning. The one with real experience can extrapolate, the other can't.

@bookingcom I’ve battled for 4 months to get my flight costs reimbursed, after the airline cancelled the flight! Hours of calls. You say the airline should reimburse me. The airline says you should pay me. Why would anyone want to use Booking again for this painful experience?

This discussion between a Google engineer and their conversational AI model helped cause the engineer to believe the AI is becoming sentient, kick up an internal shitstorm and get suspended from his job. And it is absolutely insane. https://t.co/hGdwXMzQpX

Some of the best startup advice we got was from @mcuban, who told us not to hedge our bets when we had 2 projects early on splitting our focus. A startup’s asymmetric advantage is deploying all your resources in a single direction, never dilute that.

1/6 Well, what do I know? Maybe Putin doesn't hate me, maybe he secretly adores me. That's why he wants me to be hidden in an underground bunker, guarded by reliable people, just like himself.

“If you only wished to be happy, this could be easily accomplished; but we wish to be happier than other people, and this is always difficult, for we believe others to be happier than they are.”

Montesquieu said this 300 years ago. We’re still working on this one.
