We don't have to accept the way AI is going.
The biggest companies building AI aren't building it for us. They're building it to replace us.
We’ve made a roadmap for how we can build pro-human AI: betterpathfor.ai
Let me take you through it…

Humanity desperately needs to educate everyone that the new AIs are intuition machines, not logic machines. Thus, I've decided to give my book Artificial Intuition for free. It was written 5 years ago when few realized a revolution was coming. intuitionmachine.gumroad.com…

When you see Arber Xhekaj trending, you realize that last name is from your parts, but know nothing about hockey, so tag @thesapper to tell you if he's actually any good and worth watching hokey games for :)
I strive to be a leader that is self conscious about this

Great thoughts on understanding the value proposition of a company’s core values.
Also very fair evaluation of Facebook specifically

Stephen, why are you so critical of Facebook and not the other big tech companies?
A 🧵 for well-intentioned engineers about how to navigate the complexities of big tech.
3 pretty decent use cases for ES6 generators.

So many wrongs here
1. It's against the @premierleague triple punishment rule this is completely wrong
2. VAR takes like 5 seconds to check such a game changing moment
3. This is so wrong that it probably could be overturned at half time ?

"I'm a pack up and cross the border where the healthcare is worse & non-universal, Trump thinks he's done a great job at dealing with the crisis, and the case numbers are literally the highest in the world," said no Canadian ever! #noCanadian
The first thing you learn in business leadership is that you need a well thought out but daring vision, and then empower people to achieve it.
Prime Arsene had it, Pep has it, Klopp has it, Arteta seems to have it. This could be a special #Arsenal
This is also the reason why you don’t remember the above antagonizing their players. They don’t need to, as it’s not leadership through fear.
They might not believe in it anymore when leadership actions don’t match the vision so they leave, but when they believe it’s special
@LeGrove blog slightly touched on this and all the fuss about Arteta on the blog was for good reason
