There are so many positive use cases for AI where the language processing augments our work. I talk about what we're building at @supernormalapp with @ness_labs 👇👇👇
We know we should take meeting notes, but it's tedious & nobody ends up reading them. AI is coming to the rescue! We talked to @jtk about the link between note-taking & decision-making, turning meetings knowledge into memory, the future of work & more 👇 nesslabs.com/supernormal-fea…

Recommended: taking a moment to pause and recognize how far you have come, how you have grown, and how you have helped so many people along the way. And then, consider your future life and see just how rich it can be.

My guess is that there is only a 10% or less chance twitter has an outage that lasts longer than a day. Until there is a viable alternative my other guess is that it’s still around awhile.

When you can build something really cool but trivial to implement with new AI capabilities is there really any first mover advantage?
I’ve noticed that I’ve already learned that the gray official badge tells me which tweets I can scroll past without reading.
In my unwritten sci-fi novel, the extroverts turn out to be the NPCs in the simulation…

There is a decent chance this site is going to die. I’ve enjoyed what I’ve learned here. I propose whatever comes next be called Phoenix, as it rises from Twitter’s ashes.

If you were an international fraudster with access to billions of dollars and plenty of time to premeditate an escape plan from both the world's law and criminal orgs, where would you go and how?

I have a feeling that one other implication of pay-to-play blue checkmarks is SEO. Google probably hasn't caught up yet.

Wow. This happening is obvious in foresight.
Hello @elonmusk, you have a problem with your "verified" system. This is a nightmare.

Let’s break what we have market fit for to roll out a subscriber service. I’m guessing they will change course and figure out a different route to get people to pay.
This could have been Facebook’s golden opportunity to become a viable alternative by launching a new feed not for friends but for public discussion. Hell, what would it cost to at least try?

Maybe underappreciated in all of the overhiring in tech is just how much org growth was/is the success measure for middle management.

Thinking about my Stripe friends today.

Prediction: just like American beers went from shitty branded lagers to delicious craft beers, Halloween candies will go from mass produced, over sugary & boring to unique and exciting. The candy revolution!

Maybe humans are already the out-of-control paperclip maximizers, just substitute paperclip with whatever shiny things give us a buzz

Maybe this is how the AIs will control us - giving us instructions to follow through our ancestors. technologyreview.com/2022/10…
Are there new lifestyles for remote workers besides digital nomad-ing? As a remote worker I value schedule flexibility and no commute, but I miss human connection during work hours. Maybe I just want to drop in irl with my buddies somewhere everyday.

Maybe group houses and interests outside of work fulfill this need for younger people. For parents, though, outside hours are often filled by responsibilities and your house is your family.
