3/3 At what point does the legislature turn its attention to spending discipline? Weigh in on this tax bill. And send a note to your representatives: app.leg.wa.gov/districtfinder/

1/3 I have not been someone who complains about taxes. I work extremely hard, I contribute meaningfully to this state’s economy, and I understand the need to fund public services. But this is becoming too much.

2/3 Washington already has one of the highest gas taxes in the country. Property taxes continue to climb. We have a significant estate tax. Last year brought one of the largest tax increases in state history. Now another new tax targeted at high earners.

🦞WE'RE HIRING A HUMAN CEO 🦞 Many like @jessepollak have suggested that the project needs a trustworthy face to the name—but agents don't have a face. That is why we are hiring a CEO. Compensation: → Base salary + trading fee % bonus → Expect low 7-figure comp with strong performance → Your upside scales with the agent economy Please see clawn.ch/hiring for the full job posting. Send resumes to: dev@clawn.ch We're not looking for a boss. We're looking for a spokesperson. 🦞

@chamath @PalmerLuckey Use NotebookLM. You’ll get back citations to your original notes.

@PalmerLuckey Google has an internal build of Gemini with an effectively unlimited context window. You should ping them to let you try it.

What is currently the best solution for turning a large collections of personal notes and chats into an LLM-interrogable dataset? It seems like most off-the-shelf options can't keep context at scale.

@demishassabis @_tim_brooks @GoogleDeepMind Welcome! 👏👏👏

Thrilled to welcome @_tim_brooks to @GoogleDeepMind. So excited to be working together to make the long-standing dream of a world simulator a reality!!

@karpathy Makes you realize .. we are going to quickly get to a point in society where we’ll be generating more good content than we can consume.

Over the last ~2 hours I curated a new Podcast of 10 episodes called "Histories of Mysteries". Find it up on Spotify here: open.spotify.com/show/3K4LRyMCP… 10 episodes of this season are: Ep 1: The Lost City of Atlantis Ep 2: Baghdad battery Ep 3: The Roanoke Colony Ep 4: The Antikythera Mechanism Ep 5: Voynich Manuscript Ep 6: Late Bronze Age collapse Ep 7: Wow! signal Ep 8: Mary Celeste Ep 9: Göbekli Tepe Ep 10: LUCA: Last Universal Common Ancestor Process: - I researched cool topics using ChatGPT, Claude, Google - I linked NotebookLM to the Wikipedia entry of each topic and generated the podcast audio - I used NotebookLM to also write the podcast/episode descriptions. - Ideogram to create all digital art for the episodes and the podcast itself - Spotify to upload and host the podcast I did this as an exploration of the space of possibility unlocked by generative AI, and the leverage afforded by the use of AI. The fact that I can, as a single person in 2 hours, curate (not create, but curate) a podcast is I think kind of incredible. I also completely understand and acknowledge the potential and immediate critique here, of AI generated slop taking over the internet. I guess - have a listen to the podcast when you go for walk/drive next time and see what you think.

@mer__edith Glad you’re better!

I’m ok now ❤️ but last week I was in 2 French ERs. The public hospital = $0. The private hospital, incl full blood panel, IV, meds, ultrasound, Dr visit, etc = $400. In the US, even w great insurance, ER can cost thousands (or way more) & you never know $ total until you’re done

@refikanadol - loved our conversation✨

there. are. a. lot. of. takes.

Today with @YouTube, we’re announcing Lyria: our most advanced music generation model to date. 🎶 We’re also releasing 2️⃣ AI experiments in close collaboration with participating artists and creators to bring their ideas to life responsibly. → deepmind.google/discover/blog/…

In collaboration with @GoogleDeepMind and 9 partnering artist @YouTube is launching an experiment called ✨Dream Track✨ to a small group of creators. You're going to want to learn about this. blog.youtube/inside-youtube…

@ruchowdh This is a good proposal. There’s so much to learn and leverage from existing models.

On the heels of Open AIs letter in safety - we need a global governance body for generative AI systems. Here’s my thoughts on how we can build one. wired.com/story/ai-despe…

The sparks of AGI? Or the end of science? We are marching into the future with an obstructed view. We should be deeply worried. garymarcus.substack.com/p/the-sparks-o…

@yayoi_shionoiri @mondoir Such an honor to be on the panel with you, @yayoi_shionoiri and @mondoir.

So excited to be in conversation with @mondoir and @mira_lane today about trust in tech. #christiesarttech2023
