+1 to @scottbelsky’s take...Sora in its current form won’t retain audiences. One way to address his second point: a tight integration with Suno. It’d be a fun way to inject more human craft and taste while still harnessing the best of these gen-AI tools.

contrarian take on generative-only social apps and experiences: they will fail to sustain engagement for 3 reasons: 1. the “ego analytics” that cause ppl to come back & see who engaged with their content are missing when AI made the content. no ego = no obsession. 2. the lack

Today I was thinking. Perhaps AI companies aren't selling intelligence, they're selling certainty. You type in chaos, you get back clarity. (at least the illusion of it) In a world where reality feels unstable and everything feels uncertain, certainty becomes the ultimate

Sure, ChatGPT Pulse will likely have ads. But OpenAI has a chance to invent an industry-defining ad format. Heck, it could feel so seamless they might not even call it an ad. Introducing: “ChatGPT recommends…” Things in their favor: 1. A massive and engaged audience

It's kind of sad that Jony Ive now spends his genius designing completely unattainable objects, like this $4,800 lantern. It's absolutely beautiful, and designed for no one to own.

Jony Ive’s latest design is a sailing lantern. It reminds me of the 2019 Mac Pro.

Interesting to contrast this week’s big consumer AI launches - Pulse (OpenAI) vs. Vibes (Meta). One is a vision of how AI might enlarge - an Iron Man suit for personal learning and development. The other is pure hyperstimulus brain rot - an attempt to distill distraction to

kinda ironic how this launch basically kneecaps meta’s ai recruiting. in some ways it just means the comp premium goes up. in smart circles there are social penalties for choosing one logo over another, & right now meta sits on the wrong side of that table culturally. it also

Updated for the age of AI... Remember that AI capabilities are rapidly evolving. What didn't work last month might work now. Stay curious about new techniques and help others maintain a growth mindset about what's possible.

I just finished 'The Making of the Prince of Persia' by @jmechner, published by @stripepress. I wrote some thoughts about why I loved it, and why it's such a rare, raw look into the creative journey: It’s great to read about the nitty gritty of creating something new as it is

I agree in many ways with what Joe is saying about AI. But how we use AI for coaching is crucial. If it shortcuts mistakes and the social learning that leads to reflection, it will shortcut growth. That matters, because the future of work will be defined less by our knowledge

Senior PMs and PM leaders need to live in 2 distinct mindsets. The first is the confident, certainty mindset that is often necessary to get things done, push things through against opposition, inspire the team, and demonstrate progress in a complex environment where everyone in

https://t.co/OxbCFJMHHp has effortless database and auth support, but web only, not native. https://t.co/UZeyBBd0LR produces great designs with simple prompts, native hybrid https://t.co/E3IgipYsgI fully native!! but painful to use mobile-only editor. data is clumsy, no auth.

So close to being able to vibe code a native mobile app with @BitrigApp, but not *quite* there yet. Till then, these are the sites I used to make this mobile-optimized web app: https://t.co/GoSPqwDaip https://t.co/OxbCFJMHHp https://t.co/UZeyBBd0LR https://t.co/FWfbgges0W
