Writing after a long time…started off with a simple question ‘what is customer experience?’ with some very smart folks at @CapitalFactory - Connecting the dots - #intelligence #memory #attention #Kahneman #Mindhacking #democracy #nassimtaleb #heuristics

[Bill Gurley @bgurley]

This is what’s causing Anthropic to aggressively beg for govt protection (see below). Customers are finding cheaper alternatives. Keeping employees requires continuing ultra-rich secondaries ($$$) that are dependent on revenue growth. When you can’t win on the field go to DC.

[Paul Graham @paulg]

Another annoying thing about getting emails people have used AIs to write for them is that they're usually longer than they'd have written by themselves. Paragraphs and paragraphs of plausible-sounding text. Ugh.

Such a shocking news this morning!!! 💔Austin and Texas lost a visionary leader who got so many of together and umpired several founders....what a legend. We will miss and honor him forever ...RIP Josh😔 @CapitalFactory @JoshuaBaer

[Lloyd Doggett @RepLloydDoggett]

Saddened by the untimely passing of my friend, Josh Baer.  A great entrepreneur, he was a driving forcethrough Capital Factory in Austin's tech story, helping make us the dynamic, international city we are today.

I bet the most common messages on #WhatsApp are 'Happy Birthday' and 'Inna Lillahi wa inna ilahi rajioon'

Count me as a skeptic 😀 @EugeneAustin @hyams

[Jeffrey Snover @jsnover]

In my Harvard fellowship I study the views of AI accelerationists, safetyists and skeptics.

What I have come to realize is that both the Accelerationists and the Safetyists believe that we are creating an AI God.

The difference is that Accelerationists believe that it is the god of the New testament.
A god of loving kindness.

The Safetyists believe that it is the god of the Old testament.
The jealous one who told Abraham to kill his son, destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, and killed everybody in the flood.

The Skeptics think it's just a damn toaster with more knobs.

We just spoke to this father whose son attends school at the Islamic Center of San Diego. He personally knows the security guard who was killed. He says he was a father of 8.

@bznotes Good to remember Yonder... early @CapitalFactory startup, then @MoonshotsCap investment too. Still in touch with the founder @jonathonmorgan

[Shakeel Rashed @Shakeelr]

For as long as I remember there have been startups that have tried this...but the market/use case did not support any major one since Mint...I wonder how many people will be comfortable giving access to their accounts #personalfinance #finance #openAI

[ChatGPT @ChatGPTapp]

This has been going on for 80 years, and heavily documented. The NYTimes finally scraped together enough integrity to publish something.

Wonder what suffering it went thru #buddhism #robotics #humanoids 😀🦾🤖

[Reuters @Reuters]

South Korea's first humanoid robot monk made its debut at Jogye Temple in Seoul, ahead of Buddha's birthday. Gabi, the 130-centimeter-tall robot, wore a traditional grey-and-brown Buddhist robe and stood before monks as it pledged to devote itself to Buddhism
