Recently had a guy refuse to continue working with us because we asked him to start using ai. His response: “I make things from scratch”

The only problem with working with @samterris is that you start expecting everyone to be @samterris. Best problem to have. The @FreckleHQ team is one of one

at which point does building faster than you can think make us take a second to think?

“Just circling back on linking and building out creator-led brand activations to drive organic traction across our community touchpoints. We’re seeing incredible uptake as we’re looking into rollout strategy and cleaning up our verticals in time to escape the permanent underclass”

@samterris and his team @frecklehq are one of one. The highest bar for what any collaboration should be: a rare level of trust that balanced clarity with collaboration that is once in a lifetime

Overheard last night in LA: “You have to have a lot of crazy experiences to be a great writer. That’s why I do ketamine. Nobody loves me. That’s why I became a writer.” Place is purgatory I love it.

I love knowing where things come from, but sometimes you meet someone so well referenced their knowledge impairs their ability to function, and any conversation triggers an involuntary bibliography. Instead of inspiring me to learn, they make me want to stay dumb. Whatever knowing all that has done to you, I’d like to avoid. It’s like the most advanced form of poor time management.

Volume is the enemy AI made it effortless
efficiency, productivity, speed we keep worshipping these words like they are what we live for ship faster merge more manage more agents compress every loop remove every pause turn every hour into output but what is the point of endless production if there is no time left to think deeply? not react not optimize not summarize not clear the queue think to sit with a question long enough that your real intention starts to appear to find the purpose underneath the motion to ask whether the thing being accelerated should exist at all ai could be a new canvas a way to make strange things personal things impossible things tools, worlds, poems, games, interfaces, films, languages, rituals things that let more people touch the shape of their own imagination but instead, so much of it is becoming slop factories more content more funnels more tickets more fake work pretending to be value you can merge 2000 prs you can manage 500 agents you can wake up to dashboards proving that the machine kept moving while you slept but what is the point if you only sleep 5 hours a day? what is the point if you stop talking to other humans? stop learning about the past? stop playing? stop wandering? stop being surprised? what is the point if your whole life becomes optimizing the system that is consuming you? speed is not meaning scale is not wisdom automation is not freedom if it only makes everyone run faster and where are we running? toward what? a world where every person becomes a manager of machines, and every machine produces more things no one had the time to truly want? the danger is not that ai makes us lazy the danger is that ai makes us endlessly busy that it gives us infinite production before we have found intention infinite execution before we have developed taste infinite motion before we have learned how to be still maybe the real frontier is not more speed maybe it is discernment knowing what not to make knowing when to stop knowing when the most productive thing is to sleep, read history, call a friend, play with a cat, walk without tracking it, or stare at the ceiling until the false urgency dissolves tools should give us more life not turn life into a tool if ai is going to matter, it should not just help us produce more it should help us become more human more imaginative more free otherwise, it’s the same old factory just without humans

Wow, after all the talk about from frontier companies about new models... and future devices... and glasses... and new form factors... Mark Zuckerberg aka @finkd just comes out of nowhere and drops @Muse, glasses, and a fucking Tamagotchi that will be in people's stockings by Christmas... Mic. Dropped.
