Real progress follows two rules: 1. It takes longer than you think 2. It is much more iterative than you think We're not going to all wake up one day and see a robot simulating human thought. We'll just inch closer and closer unti

Disagree. The fact that the board are so cagey about why exactly they sacked Altman in the first place (other than some vague hand waving about high-minded idealism) speaks volumes. They sacked him because as head of a for-profit corporatio

I'm not so sure -- the in-concert RTO hardline from FAANG has a very "collusion" vibe to it. Those CEOs probably got together specifically to undermine the labor market's natural incentives. It'd be great if the DoL
