I'm 62. I'm supposed to be slowing down and talking about the good old days of the internet. Instead I'm building new things with AI almost every day and having more fun than I did in 1995.

Technical moats are mostly over at this point. If you’re building something that is meant to be durable, the only moats now are: • Proprietary data • Network effects • A physical component

Email, phone numbers, and marketplaces are about to get destroyed When everyone has Muse, Instinct etc doing their errands, every inbox, phone line, marketplaces etc gets hit by millions of agents at once The channels built for humans are going to break/be reinvented.

Chamath on where Nike went wrong: "I don't aspire to be a fat person. I aspire to be Michael Jordan." "If I've learned anything in almost 30 years of business, you have to have a very clear North Star and stick to it. When I was growing up, Nike's North Star was very clear to me, which was mastery and excellence embodied through athletics. That was it." "I would see Michael Jordan, and I saw mastery and excellence. I would see Tiger Woods, Serena Williams, Pete Sampras, you name it, and it was mastery and excellence." "Somewhere along the way, mastery and excellence became too traditional looking. So they went to things that were just nothing to be associated with mastery or excellence. I don't aspire to be a fat person. Never have, never will. I aspire to be Michael Jordan. Always have, always will." "You can recenter around this idea that we're not here to make people feel better about themselves. Our success was when people imbued their desires of getting better through the lenses of these people that were incredible." "There are incredible athletes who give up their entire lives to master something. And I think that Nike should own that, and they should be proud of that. How do you sell it everywhere? Because everybody will want it." "But if you don't get the North Star right, you're going to miss out. And I think the North Star was clear: excellence and mastery."

This was a role player in the NBA by the way. Many would argue a low-level role player, and that’s absolutely no disrespect either. The pros are just different.

Parkeringshus vil gradvis forsvinne når robotaxier erstatter privatbilisme de neste 10-15 åra. De som overlever er de som blir infrastruktur for vasking og lading av robotaxier. Trafikkulykker, parkeringsbot, bilforsikring, veiavgift, fartsbot, soning for promillekjøring, snømaking og garasje som bopel for bilen - vil gradvis forsvinne. Kost per miles i USA for privat bileierskap er ca 70 cent, 200+ cent for biologisk taxi. Med robot taxi mellom 20-30 cent. Sakte, sakte. Plutselig

Feels like I’m living in the future in the Cybercab. It’s hard to believe a car with no steering wheel or pedals is actually real, but it’s less a car and more of a robot on four wheels.
