Ok this is getting so weird. Blasting Christian pop while dancing & painting a portrait of Donald Trump in front of a weeping, rapturous audience is some next level, STRANGE ass shit. Watch ——->

One of the reasons I left MAGA---after 7 years in the community, as an activist, volunteer and pundit for MAGA media---was because I painfully realized that Trump and the GOP were/are on the wrong side of life and death issues. The GOP and Trump have deemed acceptable avoidable deaths, suffering and trauma---whether it be on natural disasters, COVID, Jan. 6 and Trump-inspired violence and firearm-related casualties and injuries.

Take it from those who know him best: If Donald Trump is reelected, he will fill the White House with loyalists—and there will be no one to stop his worst instincts. Watch our new ad:

This is an important development. Prediction: by strategically delaying short term commercialization pressures, in order to get safety right, this will be the dominant model in the future. "Safe Superintelligence" I like it!
Superintelligence is within reach. Building safe superintelligence (SSI) is the most important technical problem of our​​ time. We've started the world’s first straight-shot SSI lab, with one goal and one product: a safe superintelligence. It’s called Safe Superintelligence Inc. SSI is our mission, our name, and our entire product roadmap, because it is our sole focus. Our team, investors, and business model are all aligned to achieve SSI. We approach safety and capabilities in tandem, as technical problems to be solved through revolutionary engineering and scientific breakthroughs. We plan to advance capabilities as fast as possible while making sure our safety always remains ahead. This way, we can scale in peace. Our singular focus means no distraction by management overhead or product cycles, and our business model means safety, security, and progress are all insulated from short-term commercial pressures. We are an American company with offices in Palo Alto and Tel Aviv, where we have deep roots and the ability to recruit top technical talent. We are assembling a lean, cracked team of the world’s best engineers and researchers dedicated to focusing on SSI and nothing else. If that’s you, we offer an opportunity to do your life’s work and help solve the most important technical challenge of our age. Now is the time. Join us.

Over the years, as I've looked at all of the varied creative processes, using many of them, the most mature, comprehensive and effective has been CPSS, Creative Problem Solving. I still, however feel that the weak spot is what I've added here as step 7.…lnkd.in/ep-hbJzi

Think about this one. What fills the space is, initially, habituated automatic thinking. Then, if I/you observe it, I/you can then think by choice. Choose non-gator-brain thinking, and, over time, gatorless thinking can become the new automatic habit. lnkd.in/etEyyNmt

This evening, around the campfire, I was asked “how did you end up in the Creativity field“ and, “How did you come up with the Innovator’s is Values?“ Here is an explanation of what those values are, and how the articulation of the…lnkd.in/eQ4fsSuQ lnkd.in/d-nzefXX

Somehow, this message landed well in my being in my late teens and early 20s. “Success is not something you pursue. Success is looking for a place to land.“ Work on yourself. It is the only path with heart. lnkd.in/eDbvnJK5

I really agree with Kendall here. Building on his thinking here: learn fast, share learning well and quickly, decide quickly. In all of these, the innovators values, embedded and constantly reinforced in an organizational culture, will ease the way. Humil…lnkd.in/eEebzGiw
