Generative AI is helping me write code, make drawings and learn. Crypto is helping me make international payments, use more open social networks, and get a new class of supplementary news via polymarket. What is the metaverse doing?

I used to listen to Ed Zitron’s podcast. He made a lot of good points but then he started to lose me. I love skepticism, and I appreciate where he’s coming from, but he overlooks and disparages some of the things I think leftists would actually benefit from if we better understood them.

I just discovered him through this cast and after reading screenshot essay from OP tweet I scrolled through his feed. He made really good points but the amount of spite in other tweets is just overwhelming. Do you know similar people who may be more cold-headed?

No but if you find any let me know!! I think his points about the limited amount of data for training and improving models and then the synthetic data creating hallucinations were pretty spot on. It’s a good glimpse outside of the VC fueled AI echo chamber we exist in in the tech space.
