Very sad to hear this. Larry was one of the smartest people I ever met, inspiring and generous.


First The Algorithm trained opinion-havers to please it (making a public debate that rewards bad actors), then artists to please it (= a culture of copycat influencers). Next it will train students please it. Get ready for a world where everybody writes and ‘thinks’ like Chat-GPT

“Expressing something personal” lol

I love music most when it’s live, in the moment, and expressing something personal. This is why I’m psyched about the new “DJ mode” we developed for MusicFX: aitestkitchen.withgoogle.com/tools/music-fx… It’s an infinite AI jam that you control 🎛️.

In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce a South African-American(!) businessman and social media figure, Elon Musk (@elonmusk). He's best-known for being the wealthiest man in the world, running Tesla Inc., SpaceX & Twitter, and for parroting Kremlin's propaganda narratives. 1/24

What I experience on Twitter is the illusion of learning, the illusion of community, the illusion of being heard when I feel I have something to say. I’m addicted to this illusion but if I’m honest it’s the opposite of what I want in my life. Excited to try a 2023 without it.
