human minds have spiky expertise

watch what happens when you give everyone prostheses to fill in the space between the spikes
I think we're going to get a random assortment of really quite impactful technological breakthroughs in the next 5 years as scientists run LLM swarms against the frontier of open problems and find unexpected angles where industrial-scale intelligence finds some weird lucky breakthrough
i challenge you to post one optimistic take or belief today on bluesky

Often, we need a broader picture.

I slept badly because of laughter and loud conversations in the room next to mine.

They had a lot to celebrate.
Life.
