I interviewed @jasonfried on work culture. This bit, on why writing > brainstorms, stuck: "You’ve got to be able to fully form your thoughts in a narrative style that other people can understand. You can’t just drive by and throw an idea in there. There are unlimited ideas."

What would generative AI, like GPT-3 or DALL-E, look like for science? AlphaFold gives us a taste of this, but tackling a very defined problem. What if we could expand that out for all scientific knowledge? What becomes possible?

🧵1 / Who are you when you're online? The notion of identity is evolving. I wrote an article for the @a16z @Future blog. I encourage you to read my whole article, but this thread summarizes key ideas and points you to some of what inspired me. future.com/unbundling-digita…

Beamable CEO @jradoff as a post up on the Andreessen Horowitz Future blog about the evolution of online identity and how it will change the way we play and build. #Metaverse #gaming #Identity
New technologies and the desire to compartmentalize identity, curate how we’re perceived online, and play with different personas has led to a decentralization of our digital identities. @jradoff explains how this evolution can benefit users and creators. future.com/unbundling-digita…
