@SirMichaelRocks Take Me Out Seven Nation Army Maps White Stripes are the best band here by far, but SNA is their most overrated song. Take Me Out is a generational 00’s radio banger. Maps is fine.

You’re not imagining things—the plums that were in your icebox are *gone*. Here’s why that’s bad news: • They were *your plums*, that you were saving for breakfast. That makes this personal for you. • They were *sweet*, so whoever ate them *enjoyed* them. That’s unforgivable.

@wesroth @dwarkesh_sp @pawtrammell But why assume the galactic barons of the future, with control of 99% of Earth’s resources and a rapacious demand for more, would allow the rest of Earth to live in luxury? When they could paywall access to those practically free resources and have 100% of the automation gains?

very interesting discussion. couple points I'd love to add: 1) raising taxes to solve inequality only works if those taxes don't get stolen/wasted. exhibit A: Minnesota exhibit B: California 2) is inequality itself the issue? when we think inequality, we think of the divide between the rich and the poor. what if there's no "poor"? Let's say the lowest 1% of society have 10x the income they need to survive and thrive (food, education, housing, travel etc) are those people worse off if the top 1% have more? if (and that's a big if)... *if* we eliminate scarcity, does inequality matter? (serious question) let's say you could live in a more or less equal society... but the tech was stuck in the medieval era... would you take it? you and all your neighbors have the same equal chance of dying next winter, you both poop outside, you both expect to die at 35 and any injury has a chance to infect and kill you painfully but both the Lords and the peasants have roughly the same net worth on the flip side imagine living a life of luxury in some distant future, but there are a few families out there who own and profit from entire galaxies... ...the inequality is astronomically bigger than at any time in history which way do you go?

New blog post w @pawtrammell: Capital in the 22nd Century Where we argue that while Piketty was wrong about the past, he’s probably right about the future. Piketty argued that without strong redistribution of wealth, inequality will indefinitely increase. Historically, however, income inequality from capital accumulation has actually been self-correcting. Labor and capital are complements, so if you build up lots of capital, you’ll lower its returns and raise wages (since labor now becomes the bottleneck). But once AI/robotics fully substitute for labor, this correction mechanism breaks. For centuries, the share of GDP that goes to paying wages has been 2/3, and the share of GDP that’s been income from owning stuff has been 1/3. With full automation, capital’s share of GDP goes to 100% (since datacenters and solar panels and the robot factories that build all the above plus more robot factories are all “capital”). And inequality among capital holders will also skyrocket - in favor of larger and more sophisticated investors. A lot of AI wealth is being generated in private markets. You can’t get direct exposure to xAI from your 401k, but the Sultan of Oman can. A cheap house (the main form of wealth for many Americans) is a form of capital almost uniquely ill-suited to taking advantage of a leap in automation: it plays no part in the production, operation, or transportation of computers, robots, data, or energy. Also, international catch-up growth may end. Poor countries historically grew faster by combining their cheap labor with imported capital/know-how. Without labor as a bottleneck, their main value-add disappears. Inequality seems especially hard to justify in this world. So if we don’t want inequality to just keep increasing forever - with the descendants of the most patient and sophisticated of today’s AI investors controlling all the galaxies - what can we do? The obvious place to start is with Piketty’s headline recommendation: highly and progressively tax wealth. This might discourage saving, but it would no longer penalize those who have earned a lot by their hard work and creativity. The wealth - even the investment decisions - will be made by the robots, and they will work just as hard and smart however much we tax their owners. But taxing capital is pointless if people can just shift their future investment to lower tax countries. And since capital stocks could grow really fast (robots building robots and all that), pretty soon tax havens go from marginal outposts to the majority of global GDP. But how do you get global coordination on taxing capital, when the benefits to defecting are so high and so accessible? Full automation will probably lead to ever-increasing inequality. We don’t see an obvious solution to this problem. And we think it’s weird how little thought has gone into what to do about it. Many more thoughts from re-reading Piketty with our AGI hats on at the post in the link below.

@misterminsoo When attention is media's main currency, writing up a non-popstar record is inherently a kind of reward, and most bad records are simply ignored. In that environment, giving an obscure artist a bad review is confusing, and can even feel like singling them out to bully them

When I wrote a negative review of the Emahoy Tsege Mariam Gebru album on Pitchfork there were folks in the experimental music scene upset and baffled that someone would write something negative about her music. I basically think stan brain + social media made everyone dumb.

@BilgeEbiri @krishnashenoi It’s a concert venue, it’s designed for audiences to look mostly at a small front area while the rest of the image is detail for your peripheral vision. These screenshots are like a bad Mercator projection of a curved image

@krishnashenoi Wouldn't that depend on where your seat actually was? The Sphere has a seating capacity of 18,000+, many many *many* times larger than the largest movie theater.
