Welcome to my Thread talk, where I might be sharing unfiltered thoughts… depending on who’s following 😉 PS. It feels like I'm cheating on Twitter. Shh, don't tell @elonmusk! threads.net/t/CuWM5iVJju2/?i…

I think the most clever thing to do right now is watch how teens use ChatGPT vs the fringe business use-cases tech people use it for. The emergent use cases from technology often come the people who (1) have a lot of time and (2) must outsmart authority for freedom.

The MAF/Will.i.am collab, finally beginning to see the light of day. But I agree, voice is a risky proposition for Day 1... why not launch with a useful service that people will almost certainly love and use, and then add voice later to see how people respond to it?
⚡️ Since early 2020, @MajidAlFuttaim has quietly been working on a superapp, that looks to integrate both its ecosystem as well as a bunch of external services Whilst it looks great in a deck, voice is very difficult to get right and I remain unconvinced that it is the right bet

Very true. PS. The OCD in me can’t help but notice the base of the pyramid on the left has one too many boxes 😅
