At Quora we recently tested switching from Zoom to Google Meet for a week. Google Meet is better in many small ways, but worse in one big way: audio quality, particularly background noise cancellation and echoing. That kills it so we are staying on Zoom!.

I really enjoyed this conversation with Rick Rubin. We talked about the early days of Facebook, Quora, Poe, AGI, user-generated content, and vibe coding. Link in next tweet.

This is very accurate. I would add "founder mode" as another example of the new philosophy that has come into fashion. Systems thinking done well is 100% compatible with individual agency but in many cases it gets used to defend the status quo or advance misaligned interests.
“systems thinking”, once the preferred analytical frame of the tech intelligentsia, is increasingly an out of fashion mental model for the world. in its place - direct, reductionist weltanschauung:. “you can just do things”.the midwit meme.“high agency” mysticism.grand histories.

I am very pro skilled immigration, but to build the biggest coalition it needs to be framed as “how we get the best people on our team so we can win” instead of “look how racist/selfish these people are to not want to allow it”.

Wild that the o3 results are public and yet the market still isn't pricing in AGI.

When will Waymo take everyone from SF to/from SFO, including using highways in between? (for reference, they are doing pickups/dropoffs at the Phoenix airport, but don't seem to be doing highway driving anywhere except with limited test groups).

A lot of philosophers have put time into trying to understand consciousness, but without the experience of trying to actually build systems that think, their speculation was fundamentally limited. I think Francois’ idea here is part of the story, and we will understand more soon.
"system 2 as iterated system 1 with a self-consistency guarantee" is something I considered a few years ago as one of two hypotheses, and it led me to an interesting potential interpretation of consciousness -- consciousness is the consistency guarantee. It explains why all.
