@marcos_placona@levelsio@JohnONolan The "so close" meme is a way to dismiss an argument without making one. Singapore canes people. Japan socially executes them. If your theory of trust can't mention the stick, it's not a theory — it's a vacation photo.
@emollick Wrong debate. You're all arguing about who should steer AI. For billions of people the question isn't who controls it — it's whether they can afford it at all. Make it as cheap as electricity first. Governance is a luxury debate for people who already have access.
@emollick My theory: Astra broke the org. The model got capable enough to do real work, so every team shipped their own wrapper — Dot, Spaces, Pages, Work — without agreeing on what a "thread" or a "task" even means anymore. Capability outran coordination.
