There is so much happening around us everyday with AI, tech, and the world, yet people are in a rut of desensitization and information fatigue. It's because we are so conditioned to be fed information to us automatically without having to think. We're all turning into mindless sacks of flesh on autopilot and it's getting worse every day. You don't realize how badly this shit is cooking your brain. What the fuck happened to pondering? Most people now take their phones inside the shower with them and doomscroll or blast music. What happened to those deep shower thoughts? We're more advanced than ever before and yet also somehow becoming more braindead than ever. People would rather search "give me 10 philosophical quotes" rather than read a book that explains perspective behind why those quotes were created. The fall of human society starts when people begin paying to stop thinking and are happy with it. That is exactly what's happening now. Go outside. Drive without a GPS and see where it takes you. Take a walk in silence. Ditch your airpods at home. Reflect. Pick up a book. Read something insightful. See something controversial? Stop sourcing your opinions from other people's comments and think about what it makes YOU feel. The fact that we live in a time when using your brain to formulate thoughts is becoming a chore is straight up horrifying.

if you’ve been wondering what i’ve been up to i'm building a stealth agency focused on video + storytelling helping founders turn narratives into distribution early results already hitting if you need content that actually performs hmu

When you understand distribution is product, you’ll understand your product is just a vehicle for attention.

Understanding content and distribution will outweigh any product you build.

It’s impossible to keep up with everything happening in AI unless you’re unemployed. I'm building a community for the employed to keep track of everything happening. Reply if you want in.

@theisaacmed true

The tech content discourse right now has reached peak 1. People discovering clipping like its some magic new thing (highlight / theme pages have been doing this since 2015) 2. Nonstop chatter about how TBPN is shadowbanned, and how clipping drove the outsized value (this makes no sense) 3. People obsessed with organic tech media, except that every single launch video on this app is a hidden influencer campaign (I don't mind a good ad campaign to be clear, but call it what it is) 4. Trying to get AI to do all content for you when outsized content outcomes are all driven by incredibly novel ideas, which ai has trouble executing well 5. "Editors are over" posts where people who have never edited a video in their lives think Claude will suddenly be able to put out a full banger video on its own

I'd love to connect with Agent builders. If you're building: - Payments Infra - Autonomous workflows - Agent frameworks - Social media agents Let's chat.

If AI builds everything for you, what’s your real job?

You should be spending 5% of time building your product and 95% towards distribution.

Serious question. For the last 10 years, society told everyone "just learn to code" to escape the middle class. Now Claude writes the code. What exactly is the career advice for an 18-year-old right now?

@shiftj bullish on ones ability to yap

As a YC founder who’s raised >$3M, here’s my unpopular opinion: Pitch decks aren’t that useful. Here’s why: 1/ They suck as email teasers I’d rather get a tight email than a long deck. - Too much info. - No real intent when they read it. - A short blurb does the job better. Don’t assign me a 20-slide deck as homework. Give me something I can opt into. 2/ I don’t like them when pitching This isn’t Shark Tank. Fundraising is person-to-person. It’s sales. Don’t walk slide-by-slide. Use visuals if needed. But have a conversation. Not a presentation. 3/ They’re over-relied on Good deck ≠ good fundraise. You can have a bad deck and raise just fine. What matters: - Story. - Founders. - Business. A deck should make me want to meet you. Not tell the story for you. 4/ There are better first touches In sales, you don’t send a full brochure first. You send: - What you do. - The pain. - Why it matters. Simple. Quick. Skimmable. Get them to opt in. If they’re interested, they’ll ask for more. That’s the goal. Sending a big-ass brochure upfront kills attention. It’s also a bad format for conveying your story. Do that in sales, you'll never hear back. Things I use: - Email snippet - Loom - One-pager - Investor memo 5/ Where decks are useful They’re not all bad. Use them for: - Teaser to book a call - Visual aid during a call - Something to share after -- The real issue: Decks abstract your ability to tell the story. You’ll always do that better. p.s. I raised >$3M without a pitch deck. Your mileage may vary.

@amritwt new media is the future

OpenAI just spent millions to acquire a podcast Not a startup Not AI infra A podcast Because building is now free but attention is still the scarcest asset on earth - 8 billion humans - 24 hours in a day - zero new eyeballs to mint Production → 0 CPMs → moon This is the distribution super cycle Smart money already placed their bet Even more important to maxx out distribution when you have built an AI wrapper
