A surprising thing about AI is how similar all the models are in attitudes and overall "feel." Even Grok with its lower guardrails or the Chinese models are more alike than they are different. Is it the underlying corpus of all human language? Methods? Seems important to know.

@TylerAlterman Read every post in full, even the ads. Do not skip tweets. Watch every video to the full length. Even the long ones. The more you can be bored, the more you untrain the algorithm

The entire music industry was about to be crushed by file sharing, and the majors did shady under the table deals with Spotify in order to stay afloat. It’s a corrupt payola system and works out great for the major labels, the biggest artists, and Spotify, at the cost of smaller artists.

Help me understand Spotify - it just crossed $100B in market cap and I'm not an investor. I had the chance to invest while it was private and I got a fundamental assumption wrong, and I'm still not exactly sure what I missed. My assumption: I thought the artists and record labels would have too much power in the relationship with Spotify, because Spotify needs to have a complete catalog. Netflix doesn't need a complete library of every movie or TV show (you only watch them once, users subscribe to multiple video services), but music listeners want virtually all songs in the app. My assumption was that If Taylor Swift says she's moving off Spotify, they lose millions of customers and do whatever they can to keep her. Tay-Tay has a lot of power in the relationship and can extract a lot of value, eroding margins. But it doesn't seem like that has happened. The only artist I can think of who isn't on Spotify is Garth Brooks. Now of course Spotify itself is such a behemoth that they have a lot of power in the relationship... but how did it get to be that way? Probably just a misunderstanding of the music industry... thoughts?

Watching family members financially struggle when they know you're sitting on a small fortune of #Bitcoin has probably been the hardest part of hodling for me. They've never asked me for help because they know why I'm not selling any, and they also know they ignored my financial advice to buy Bitcoin for years, but it's still tough, really tough. I find out through my siblings just how bad off my parents both are individually, they won't tell me themselves because they don't want me to feel obligated to help. It's been especially rough for me this cycle knowing that I have the money to make all their problems go away but I can't sell right before we go parabolic, I worked too hard to get this far and I'm not cashing out right before the rocket blasts off. I constantly feel selfish for this even though I know I didn't make their bad financial decisions for them. I plan on helping them out down the road but this just isn't the right time. Am I the only one struggling with this? It's a feeling I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy and lately I constantly feel like I'm on the verge of crying over it...

Tyler is finishing a book, slow to reply
A big question for me is whether Elon is actually emotionally invested in Trump or just saw him as the best strategic bet for getting us to Mars and preparing for ASI Granted he seems to have gotten more rightwing, but that might also be a strategic PR game Thoughts?

@RonenV At the time it felt like indie pop, but in hindsight feels more like psychedelic/ experimental pop. Back then we had full time journalists & music blogs doing the work of finding new & exciting sounds - weird new music was incentivised. Spotify algorithms incentivise sameness.
