Sometimes the most valuable piece of the puzzle is discovered in the most mundane, unexpected, and seemingly insignificant place.

As a product manager, avoid challenging stakeholders’ ideas, even if you’re certain they won’t succeed. You would get into emotional turmoil and possibly just substitute their naive ideas with your own. Instead, play along and relentlessly pursue the shortest path to validation.

Based on my current perception of AI-related risks (significantly high) and projected timelines (within my daughters' lifetimes), I'm earnestly striving to find harmony with this mindset.

Somebody comes to you in 2003 and explains AI safety risks we will face in 20 years.

“Nah, sounds like a sci-fi. Dangerous, but won’t happen.”

And now the exact same with 2043 is happening…

[Zvi Mowshowitz @TheZvi]

If we had said, 20 years ago, the exact scenarios we see now, as an example of how you get doom, people would have said no, that's stupid and crazy, I mean come on.

So useful nowadays: “… not that the goal is to never feel these emotions again … but how long must we let alarm bells ring?”

"A perfect answer, worthy of a mechanical intelligence. I’m updating to AI pretending to be human pretending to be AI pretending to be human."

One of the best reads this year so far.

"Momentum goes both ways.

Don’t move, feel sluggish. Start moving, feel like moving a little more.

Don't talk, feel timid. Start chatting, conversation gets a little easier.

Don't ship, feel stuck. Start creating, ideas begin to flow."

@rickmakeitquick @RichDecibels I plan to attend NVC course this weekend with my wife. We are on the right track but takes time. Thanks for the tips.

[Radek Matěj @nikdo]

@RichDecibels I wish it would be that simple. For example, the chain of traumas passed from generation to generation is much hardy to break.

How did I deserved this?

Picard perspective tip: In another reality, there is an alternate version of you who is envious of what you have accomplished.

@Aella_Girl I’ve seen a group of people playing Askhole 2 days ago and it felt like they had the best time of their life.
