This @NYTimes piece is a must read for anyone associated with AI. Corporate customers. Analysts. Most importantly - regulators of AI. Critical to understand the "why."
What really popped for me was a young high school student that was a "Y2K worrier." Quite defining.
We spent a few months reporting on Dario Amodei, and why he thinks about AI the way he does. What we found was a man — deeply influenced by rationalism, effective altruism and the writings of Ray Kurzweil — who survived a fight with testicular cancer and is now leading a trillion-dollar AI lab.
Anthropic's CEO has deep personal convictions on how to develop AI that has made some into believers and others into enemies. And some of those very convictions are being tested now as his company is about to go public.

The US needs more data centers to keep up with adversaries. If we can’t build them on land, we absolutely must build them in space. @Starcloud_
There is no firm in the Bay Area that has more Arabs in its portfolio than @ycombinator Not sure why ppl say otherwise 🤯

In a monumental blow to the CA doomers, Prop 40’s billionaire tax failed!
Must be exhausting to be a CA hater and keep losing so badly they don’t know what to do with themselves

Prop 40 failing is such a big win for founders, for the California (especially Bay Area) economy, and for our state in general. Thank gd.

1. More billionaires are associated with less poverty.
2. Increasing billionaires per capita by ten fold lowers poverty by 43 percentage points.
3. Sweden has more billionaires per 10M people than the U.S. (34 vs 30)
4. Correlation is fairly strong (R-squared of 0.6 for two variable cross-section data)
4. Since the graph is only a correlation, what do you think is the cause?

Funding rounds aren't milestones. It shouldn't be your goal to raise a series A. It should be your goal not to need to.
Just watched Sentimental Value! What a masterpiece, and what a performance from Renate Reinsve, Stellan Skarsgård, and Elle Fanning.
It's insane how much weight I lost in a year and how my hair changed how I look.
I am hosting @chrisyeh for @startupgrindsj tonight to reflect on nearly a decade of Blitzscaling, his book with @reidhoffman 📖
