Always bet on the best of the human experience - community, belongingness, and connection. Always.
These are the things that make us feel. They allow us to see and feel seen. They breed love and compassion. They make a life worth living. Never bet against the things that make us human. ✨

Sam Altman says that there's going to be a huge market and premium on "human, in person, fantastic experiences" in the next 5-10 years

Heard from Enterprise AI Product leader:
A large % of F500 companies (esp those producing physical goods) don't quite know how to use AI to differentiate their business.
The biggest use case in the short-term is automating support centers to cut support Opex/costs, as well as chatbots (and classic ML applications such as fraud). But they don't need to build this internally since many vendors will offer it.
Many enterprises know they need to do something, but don't know what. They've hired a head of AI and have reserved GPU clusters because they've heard it's a hot commodity. But unsure what to do next, especially something that will drive true business differentiation and business value.
Opportunity for a "McKinsey/BCG/Bain of AI". Likely M/B/B have already pivoted a lot of their engagements to AI.

@alyssahhenry The misunderstanding is usually a function of how the communication goes, admittedly, if the innovators care to communicate at all…

Bezos has a great related sentiment. Paraphrasing… “Innovators need to be willing to be misunderstood for long periods of time.” It means others will hate on you for long periods of time. You have to ignore the hate and keep going.
Garrett Scott 🕳@thegarrettscott
One of the most frustrating things that holds smart people back from building great things is how uncomfortable they are looking dumb. It’s VERY hard to build things of meaningful value unless you’re ok with people thinking your an idiot for long periods of time.

OKRs are a waste of time before you have product-market fit

What’s a startup conspiracy theory you believe? Mine: OKRs were actually a psyop from Google to slow down potential early stage competitors

.@elonmusk Hire me to run Twitter as VP of Product. I’ve been building social apps for 11 years—and not in a way that leads products to decay like a typical BigTech “product director dad.” Twitter has the potential to be the leading messenger, groups app & content creation tool.

@JoeFernandez That said. It takes longer than as sec to say the above sentence. So i’d actually prefer a brief pause than an answer led by a cop-out answer :)

@realDonaldTrump Did you mean the four seasons total landscaping, that looks like a parking LOT?
