The best mentorships in a zero-to-one situation are self-curated. Going to an org that specializes in this stuff too early reeks of grifters and mentors who left the game decades ago and just want to feel like they're still connected t

Not difficult at all. Define metrics that you both agree are an accurate measure of accountability for the role. If the metrics are off pace, have a convo about what's happening and what needs to change to get them back on pace. If the

This just speaks to an environment that lacks trust. Micromanagement happens when you can't trust that people will do the work. Disengagement becomes bad if you can't trust that people will do the work. Hire people you can trust t

These points are all great. I'm not sure I understand your point about everyone thinking GPT is real AI. Even luddites don't think that. I haven't met anyone who thinks that GPT is the end of AI (maybe the beginning). People

Yes and no. Many have already made their money so they can spend the rest of their lives tinkering. Ex: exiting at 9 figures and starting a pinball machine company for funsies. I'd also argue Openai follows the same.

It's on their own website. Can you blame them for promoting their own product? Marketing isn't journalism.

I don't know if I'm more offended by the Title Case, or the question itself. This doesn't deserve a human answer, so ChatGPT will have to suffice: No, a hot dog is a type of sausage sandwich, typically served on a bun, while

This is just what a person would say in a generic scenario. I was hoping for something more creative. GPT4 maybe :)

What I meant was if you were primarily on YouTube, you still had a Twitter. On insta? You still had a Twitter. LinkedIn? Twitter. Blog/website? Twitter. Everyone had a Twitter regardless of where their meat and potatoes content was.

It's baffling to me that Elon seems to be taking the opposite of a first-principles view on Twitter. He fails to realize _why_ Twitter uniquely has the reach that it does. It's because it's platform-agnostic in a lot of ways.

The mistake they're making is hammering it as a consumer brand. Really it should just be an alternate behind the scenes where people don't know. Or need to know. Long term tho, I think lab grown meats will prevail and non-meat mea

Typically when lines of communication break down, it's because trust has eroded. Based on your example, is it possible that it takes 3-5 years for the business to understand the limit of your capability? You get early wins but eventual

The biggest mistake Evernote made was not looking at how their customers used the product. They insisted on this to emphasize privacy (fair enough), but never stopped to consider 1. If their customers even cared 2. How they would learn how
