I saw a post on Reddit that said that “The underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.” And I don’t think I’ve ever seen AI described so incisively.
maybe i’m just young and brainrotted but the first few seconds of the phone blurrily readjusting to the moon affected me more viscerally than any other photo that came out of Artemis

Quinta Brunson comments on what her past self would think of her now:
“I think 2014 me would be like, ‘exactly, period’. Because I was a very determined, knew where I was going. Girl, I do not like to do that thing where people pretend like I had no idea. Like, this could happen to me? no. I made every single move in my life so that this could happen to me. Didn't exactly know this, but I think that's the beauty of vision. You can feel, see something, you're working in accordance with something, and I'm a big believer in that”.

My "Roman Empire is the realization that my life is a lottery win. Somewhere in Sudan, Pålestine, iran, Afghanistan, Iraq or Congo, there is a boy smarter than me. He is more disciplined, more resilient, and holds more potential in his single finger than I do in my entire career.
The only difference? I am siting in a train and he is sting in the rubble of his dreams.
My "bad days" are his wildest dreams.
My "burnout" is a luxury he can't afford because his only job is staying alive.
It's geographical luck and it's a haunting injustice that we all refuse to acknowledge and look away
