Awesome, thx for posting. I now have my new next book to read. Been wanting to read more of the original cybernetics stuff.

Would you also recommend "The Human Use of Human Beings"?

This is hilarious but... and I can't believe Im actually giving critique here... but a modern day, LinkedIn version would be couched in words like "exceedingly complex", "multi-domain", "system of systems", etc.

But the whole thing is brilliant. And #GrowthMindset at the end is absolute gold.

There is a lot of history of the first movers that created revolutionary products that eventually faded away into nothing, while others capitalized on the innovation.

I'd say most first movers fade away. Microsoft wasn't the first OS, Google wasn't the first search engine, Facebook wasn't the first social network... etc... etc... etc...

I think this issue is way overlooked. Current LLMs embed a long list of values that are going to be incongruent with a large percentage of the population.

I don't see any solution longer term other than more personalized models.

Sorry... OT... But I'm dying to know how you use FFT for machine failures. Is it just a matter of looking for unwelcome vibrations? Or more?

IoT and clean comms do.

Yes random small arms make quite a difference in many scenarios. I can say this with zero commentary on whether one feels society broadly should have more guns.

Thx for posting the USAID article. The brazenness of it all is astonishing.

Thank God for the incompetence. It's like we're doing "Clown Show Mussolini".
