Quantum tunneling ✍️ It is a fascinating phenomenon. Subatomic particles, like electrons, behave more like waves than solid objects. This lets them pass through barriers that seem impossible to cross. In the classical world, if you throw a ball at a wall, it always bounces back. In the quantum world, however, a particle has a small chance of just appearing on the other side of an energy "wall." This occurs because a particle's position is described by a wave of probability. This wave doesn’t drop to zero the moment it hits an obstacle. Instead, it "leaks" through, allowing some of the particle to pass to the other side. While this may sound like science fiction, this "leaking" is what allows the Sun to shine, makes modern smartphone memory possible, and lets scientists map individual atoms.

Someone just built a literal time machine out of an LLM. They trained an AI entirely from scratch on 28,000 victorian-era books from the british library (1837-1899). You can literally chat with the collective consciousness of the victorian era. 100% free to access.

AX: Design saved the day back in 2010. But this next wave of Agentic Experiences (AX) open.substack.com/pub/usefulmba/… will prove to be quite different compared to what gets practiced today. Why do I care? When I was younger, I had the opportunity to meet Clayton Christensen through the now long gone Tribeca Film Festival Disruptor Awards program. I was a big fan of Christensen’s work “The Innovator’s Dilemma,” especially because I was of the age that could remember a company called Kodak that missed the shift to digital photography from pure chemistry. At the time, it felt unimaginable that film negatives would go away. Disruption is an uncomfortable thing to experience. It generally feels desirable to wish the ongoing change to just disappear. Unfortunately that’s not a good strategy to bet on if you aren’t correct. But if you understand how we got here, and you know how to speak machine, then I believe you will have the tools with which to take action. In that spirit, I’m doing a slow-mo version of the report in good ole-fashioned chunks. —JM — Slow motion #DesignInTech: open.substack.com/pub/usefulmba/… 50-minute video format: designintech.report

@poellll I was literally having this discussion the other day with another instructor. Glad to see that our numbers are growing. LOL.

Stuff like this circle shit and 30 page guidance pdfs are done to sell, to argue for x figure prices when the logo or branding was actually done in a weekend. Sadly the bell curve center people don’t act on vibes

@Andercot @deeptechweek Do you plan to self-publish your Sci-Fi, or will you go through a publisher? I know you have your own website. Is that where you will always publish, or will you be published?

The last time I had a real job it was designing superconducting magnet systems for stellarators. These days I do two things: run this zany conference called @deeptechweek and then spend as much spare time as possible writing what I think is genuinely new science fiction. These things are not separate. Science Fiction is really upstream of so much - technology, engineering, investing. So many of us grew up reading books of things like flying cars, households robots, cure-all miracle drugs, and these things are now being built. Both the conference I run and the science fiction I write are intended to do the same thing: Create a participatory science fiction universe A sci-fi setting you can step into, that becomes real, that is not a projection into the future but an alternative imagining of where we are now, and where this inevitably leads next. The genre has always been a kind of extrapolation of our current trends and progress out to some distant point and seeing where it intersects human nature. What are the politics of living and working on the moon? The AI risks of having a supercomputer run your spaceship on a secret mission to Jupiter? The functional role of sci fi as a literary genre has been first and foremost to explore how our social landscape and ethical decision making change as our technology changes our relationship to the constraints of nature and one another. Well, we're in the singularity now, and the extrapolative linear fit to our current slope breaks down because the slope is vertical. The future is now, the future is here, and we need to race to catch ourselves up to it in mindset, and what we do. The people building this stuff are largely unknown outside of the 'deep tech' world - of course @elonmusk is the exception, but when you think 'tech titans' you think about people that started AirBnB, Coinbase, Uber, Salesforce. Software services are actually a pretty tiny niche in the economy as a whole, the vast majority of the world is engaged in things like construction, steel refining, chemical plants, agriculture, physical industries. The tech world is now inverting itself to face the physical world, software investing is dead, and whats next is remaking the world of atoms from the ground up. That is to say, the world of 'tech' has historically been tackling maybe 2% of the global economy, and now its time to take on the other 98% I think in that sense we are at the very very beginning of answering the question 'what impact will startups have on the world' - this mindset, approach in execution speed, funding structure, growth expectations, have been born in the relatively calm tide pools of software development and now have to swim in a much larger and stormier ocean. Eventually this will do to the physical world what it did to the information economy, which is create an API-like access to material products, where I can execute a line of code that sends a design to a factory that I don't own, using metal that is purchased on-demand, to produce a new thing that didn't exist before, in quantities between 1 and 100,000, all for a tiny fraction of what it costs now. This is the world we were promised by the literary imaginations of the past, people like Arthur C Clarke who seemed insane in 1964 talking about how people could do their jobs from the countryside, and send requests to a large central AI data center that would know everything there was to know. Anyways, the second annual NYC @deeptechweek starts tomorrow and its come together strong considering there is no 'organization' behind this conference besides myself, and the wrapper on my sci-fi company, @hyperstition_x - there's about 60 events and a few dozen billion in AUM represented with about a thousand startup founders and half a thousand investors. These are kind of absurd numbers for 3,500 attendees in total, but its because 'deep tech' as a category is still pretty new but growing quickly. And of course, what would the sci-fi present be without movie posters celebrating the venture funds and startups as they rightfully should be - celebrities, movie stars, acting out an exciting narrative in real life? So now you can buy sci fi movie posters too, as mementos of events you can attend for free, to get a glimpse of just how good the future will become. deep-tech-week.com/poster-shop @deeptechweek will be expanding this year to more cities as well: Berlin, Seattle, Austin, Washington DC. Six cities this year, maybe seven if I pull LA together for the fall. Next year? Twenty cities. Buckle up because the future is here.

Watching your favorite sports team play has become more complicated in recent years — as more and more games go behind paywalls on various streaming services. Fans are frustrated and leagues could be undermining their unique antitrust exemptions.

This is funny. I used to tell students "Answer the question I should have asked you rather than the one I did ask you." Works for a similar reason. As a Prof, you don't always know how to prompt a student any more than a user always knows how to prompt an LLM.
