I think you're right. I think there will be a giant "tock" back to real experiences. I'm 37, and the internet was new and novel during my formative years, so we flocked to it. Now, as it's becoming the old new thing

Your last sentence there seems a little too 'high fantasy' for me. People want a shared experience. Talking about the Odyssey and saying "I liked it, but with the rom com lens" is not a unified experience. Also it kind o

What bet you can make consistently gives you at least 51% odds? As far as I know, the best you can do in a casino is 48%. If I plug 48% into the simulation, it states there is no Kelly edge for that bet.

Why do we want to add more bodies on a finite plane of existence with an infinitely-expanding base (humans)? We have a finite plane of existence (Earth), with an infinitely-expanding consumer base (humans), and we want to add robotic compet

You gotta start prioritizing 'the soul' over what you think you're supposed to be doing. "Can't even think about marriage?" I bet marriage will take you further than you think. Maybe. But you gotta try. Try co

By the fact medicine has an expiration date on the bottle. You can have so much of it you don't have the chance to use it all before it expires.

They're going to run into the problem we have in music production where the song is 'done,' but the producer can't stop adding magic (sugar, fun sounds, more effects, etc.) and the song becomes an overproduced, over magi

Because the 4 prompts were actually still prompting for the original prompt (ugh.) in that the computer did not come up with a "complete unconditional counterexample" and the human expertise is required to discern that.

Yup if a machine kills a human it's not the machine's fault; it's the human's. Humans doing the exact same thing as machines aren't 1:1.

Perhaps it's pretentious because you're _not_ an artist. The labels matter, to an extent. I'd rather see a movie from a filmmaker over a movie from a content creator, for instance.

To that end, I don't like creating that corpus of work _for social media_. As a musician, I don't think it converts to ticket sales. At a certain level it's required to keep a musician's name in the conversation if you&#
