Alex Honnold says he "mostly listened to Tool" on his record-breaking live skyscraper climb:
"It was mostly Tool. It’s just like a random playlist that I made, that I shared with production. I made it months ago while I was driving. I’ve been training to it a bunch. Basically rock music that I’ve liked my whole life. Part of the appeal of music is that actually it helps me with pacing. Each bamboo box had been taking me about five to six and a half minutes. I just know how long the songs are. So it gives you it gives you a sense of if you’re going fast or slow. But in this case, it all kept cutting out anyway, and I couldn’t really hear and I was kind of like, 'whatever. I’m just doing my thing.'"

My strong feeling is that training models is an art form we are a short hardware leap away from being ubiquitous.
I don't care in the slightest about universal or disney, generating pastiche movies or genre music, but I do want the freedom to work in the medium of our time to be available to everyone

Headlines about Elon becoming a trillionaire undersell just how hard it will be for Tesla to hit the targets the new comp package requires. Tesla faces huge hurdles. My column @theinformation theinformation.com/articles/elon-…
