After months working with voice mode, I'm convinced voice is the new interface. Not because screens are going away, but because speaking is the lowest friction way to think, ask, create. Error rates have dropped, making voice a reliable everyday input, not a novelty anymore now. #superwhisper

As AI makes intelligence abundant, time and attention become the scarce capital of first-principles thinking.

Some tragic news is coming in about people using chat assistants as companions and hurting their relationships with the humans around them.
Like nuclear energy, it seems AI will wreak havoc before adding value to society. #aisafety

Today I came across an elderly Chinese uncle, probably in his late 70s, at Starbucks reading a Mandarin text with a thick dictionary beside him. No phone, no distractions, just complete focus. I hope I still carry that same enthusiasm for learning when I reach his age. #dailyjournal #random

If you missed meeting Jiddu Krishnamurti, K. R. Sridhar of Bloom Energy may be the closest living echo in tone, demeanor, and first-principles thinking. @bloomenergycorp.bsky.social

Building from scratch is overrated. The real leverage comes from understanding an existing system and improving it. Rewrite only when the tradeoffs genuinely favor starting over, else stand on the shoulders of giants. #typingagents #systems

And yet, there are those rare birds who learn to read the air, quietly shaping its currents, guiding the flock's direction without ever claiming the front, whose invisible hand steers the whole formation. A bitter lesson indeed. [2/2]

In an organization, if seen as analogous to a flock of birds, the role of air is either underappreciated or totally ignored. Birds behave as if air doesn't exist. [1/2]

Hangover is all you need !! Err, Handover is all you need.
In an era where centralized intelligence is evolving exponentially, a reliable handover with guaranteed SLAs is the key to unlocking applications. The rest can be handled by a myriad of agents. #drunkthoughts

In the exploration-exploitation dilemma, as applied to life, I am increasingly convinced that exploitation should be weighted around 0.693.

It feels like intelligence arrived all at once, and time for learning quietly disappeared. The skills we had seem frozen where they were, while those already ahead move farther into the distance.

After 15 years, going back to the drawing board. Time to revisit the book which motivated me to pursue Cybernetics back then. Within new context of progress in AI, Meadows will provide new insights for sure. #thinkinginsystems #controls #systems #booksky

And indeed the numbers reflect the same, a jump from 2.6 to 5.5 on a scale of 6. The first jump was around 2010 when social media and smartphones changed the digital landscape and the second jump is around COVID induced remote work. #digital-exhaustion #random
