Lex is on HN and from a prior thread [1], seems very thoughtful and receptive to constructive feedback. While I've only recently started watching his interviews, I think that reflects one of his main strengths as an interviewer--it seems he thinks both broadly and deeply about AI, physics, and a wide range of interesting topics, which is no small feat. Of course, I'm in awe of his guest list too--kudos to him for building this series. Though I've only seen a few so far, I do sort of share the feeling that the questions can tend toward too general, at least at the outset of the interviews. Like a slow-starting book, this sometimes makes it difficult for me to get hooked right away. But I think this reflects my personal preferences, and many others may prefer his style. In any case, I imagine it takes a tremendous amount of work to run something like this, and there are some great exchanges with world-class guests. It's amazing that everyone has access to interview series like this. On that note, thanks for the tip about Sean Carroll's podcast, I'll check it out.
