As to Rao-fox-lion quadrantology.. how to classify pear AI problem? (We can say nang et al were barbarians promoted to founders but that is cheap*. Otoh 1 o the more interesting facts from that case is some partners attempting to empirically price their social media marketing thesis) JPsmith on JCScott Against the Grain has another take on Rao, proweird being the barbarians trading with the State Tfound the crucial clause on pants from the Psmith-on-Stripe-Clueless that you pointed at *>derives much of [][] moral and affective sympathies from the claim that [][] is smarter and better and more efficient [s/_/effective] than anybody else Insert insider,expert,Feynman,YC,lion,officer,peer,etc & Whatever is the Other’s (prole,designor,founder,funder,clueless,loser,customer,peer)’s fave metric!
