@elonmusk the truth will prevail

@mgsiegler Indeed. Tim's legacy is stability: stable growth of revenue and stable reduction of carbon.

The more I work with AI the more I notice it delivers B- results. Producing A+ work still requires A+ people.

@jack computing by its nature is open

you don’t need permission to build or use open source and open protocols. you must get permission to use anything and everything else. think about it.

@ojoshe paging @marshallmcluhan ... all media extend or enhance our faculties. this reminds me of the myth of the 'digital assistant' always elusive as new features are added.

Since the days of Marvin Minsky and Doug Engelbart, there have been two broad visions: AI and IA. AI is what has always captured the public imagination. But Doug's IA vision (intelligence augmentation, as he called it), ever since his 1968 demo, has _actually_ shaped almost all the software we now use, from the mouse to collaborative editing to hyperlinks to videoconferencing. IA is a far more accurate description for a lot of the most useful software, even when it includes machine learning. Typically, once cutting-edge "AI" becomes truly useful, it stops feeling like AI. We get used to it and it just feels like a useful part of a product. If we mainly focus on the idea of human-like agents, we tend to ignore some of the most valuable forms of intelligent software—tech tools that help humans amplify our strengths and compensate for our myriad of weaknesses.

A prosthetic is a wearable that restores instead of enhancing function. #howmediawork #augmentation

Now that's what I call good #branding! The brand name of this toilet seat cover is "Rest Assured". The name works on so many levels (rest room, confidence in cleanliness, etc.) and I love the double entendre (*ass*ured). Well done!
