- dataminer 13y agoAshton Kutcher is portraying Steve Jobs in an upcoming movie.
- cgs1019 13y agoRight, I realized that. I guess I don't grok what RapGenius and these annotations are about.
- gkoberger 13y agoHe's an investor.
- mmahemoff 13y agoRapGenius is a YC-funded (and VC-backed) company that lets people annotate rap lyrics. BUT rap is just the initial theme that helps them fine-tune the product. It's increasingly used as a general annotation engine. So here's a high-profile investor demonstrating exactly that point, that it can be used beyond rap.
- kahirsch 13y agoBut what do these annotations mean? Are they things that Jobs said that weren't in the prepared remarks? Are they some kind of ironic commentary by Ashton Kutcher? Are they explanatory annotations?
- kamarupa 13y agoIt seems to be some of the usual Reality Distortion Field in effect by someone who feels they really appreciate and understand who Jobs was and what his inner-most thoughts are.
