@nabeelqu You’d need to spend billions of dollars to do it. Creating the infrastructure for an R1 university is very expensive, not to mention you need to attract the faculty. Most also have world class academic medical centers which are also extremely expensive.

What's the best answer to why more good universities aren't being founded in the last 50 years? (e.g. the 1890s alone had Stanford, UChicago, & Caltech.)

@ConnorHailey3 Literally it’s less humans to sit on hold and ask why we aren’t being paid as we were contracted to be paid. Upside of in house is you can walk over and discuss what’s happening. Outsourced is opaque and you have no idea.

A hard part of medicine- and likely many businesses- is getting paid for the work you do. We have multiple people whose entire job it is to help collect from insurance. If you outsource it’s expensive- but collect a lot. If you in house cheaper, but A&R goes up.

Email responsiveness is a super power. Some of the most successful and busiest people I know are so quick on email replies (when from someone they know). Usually short and sweet and to the point, but very effective in differentiating themselves.

@krishnanrohit The Wikipedia part is scary given how hallucinatory it is. The immediate threat isn’t AGI, it’s misinformation.

For me GPT has successfully replaced a bunch of Google, quite a bit of Wikipedia, a chunk of podcasts, created an entirely new model of interactive learning, sped up reading docs and papers, and vastly increased my propensity to tinker. Still in awe.

@kerckhove_ts Paying for results incentivizes spending the bare minimum to get the deliverable done and move onto the next thing. Quality goes down. Not up.

If engineers were paid for results instead of per hour/month: * Builds would be reproducible * Code would have tests * Technical debt would be rare

Intuit is incredibly solid and remains the engine of all small business because taxes are what can sink you. I like their ADP deal even as i think that ADP is often too big to help small biz itself.

Interesting: Xi wants to get entrepreneurship cranking again… Jack is back! It’s hard to put the capitalism genie back in the bottle.. even for a communist country. Once people and their leaders taste the sweet honey of startups they quickly become addicted.

There should be a word for something that is so obviously fake that you could only ever possibly arrive at that conclusion via broken formal academic study. "Nobody ever learns anything faster than anyone else" is among funniest claims I've ever read.
MindShift@MindShiftKQED

A study from Carnegie Mellon University finds that everyone learns at the same rate, although some students have a head start. A group of scientists set out to study quick learners. Then they discovered they don't exist kqed.org/mindshift/6275…

@emollick Tbf SEO was always gamed, but it was easier for google to keep up with bc it was humans doing the gaming - not AI

Systems that were built to be robust to human exploitation (SEO gaming, CAPTCHAS) break when AI is applied to them. People do what they are incentivized to do. AI is a tool, and it is going to be put to some really sketchy uses.

@abacaj It’ll be surprising if in 5 years google’s UX looks the same. This type of subversion is too easy.

I think google is going to face some tough times going forward. Not only do they have to compete with OpenAI, they have to figure out how to stop indexing poorly generated AI text and images
Ethan Mollick@emollick

It isn't just AI generated text that is starting to bleed over into search results. The main image if you do a Google search for Hawaiian singer Israel Kamakawiwoʻole (whose version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow you have probably hear) is a Midjourney creation right from Reddit.

@mwseibel Earned media/following > paid. Owning distribution channels gets more important as the moat provided by engineering is reduced by AI.

I understand when retired founders are trolls on Twitter. Active founders on the other hand… I don’t get it. Perhaps this is a self soothing mechanism cause startups are so hard. In that case I recommend seeking a more healthy hobby.
