Think Quarterly: Innovation

Reminds me of a Rosenfeld book "Make It So: Interaction Design Lessons from Science Fiction." Sci-fi is able to push interface design because they're unconstrained... It's been a while, so I need to dust off.

Gopnik is a great writer, and this is a very good take. She has a great sense of how to bring psychology to tech. Also fun fact: She's married to Alvy Ray Smith for all the computer graphics/pixar fans out there. I'd love to here them debate tech takes!

There was a very interesting comment at 4:30 from Barry Zhang where they didn't know how the model was making a decision so they would close their eyes for a min and blink for a min and think what would I do with this information. I was blown away by this idea but really simple concept to think about the information. Is there more to read about looking through the lens of the model itself? Is this just a different way to think about Prompt Engineering?

I get your point, but also 1) It helps me focus on the themes first, like scanning a good non-fiction book to know what I am diving into 2) I'm not catholic, but would love some context going in on it. 3) It's a lot of individual blocks and I'd like to know does that mean they're leary, pro, what are the guidelines so helping find the themes or key topics like is there a benefit to AI and maybe using it to summarize and getting to this parapgrah quickly: 0. In light of the foregoing discussion, the differences between human intelligence and current AI systems become evident. While AI is an extraordinary technological achievement capable of imitating certain outputs associated with human intelligence, it operates by performing tasks, achieving goals, or making decisions based on quantitative data and computational logic. For example, with its analytical power, AI excels at integrating data from a variety of fields, modeling complex systems, and fostering interdisciplinary connections. In this way, it can help experts collaborate in solving complex problems that “cannot be dealt with from a single perspective or from a single set of interests.”[64]

yea just that that too. Did anyone get in or did they get overwhelemed?

Interesting, do you think it would also be useful for Bestmen? I love the tone functionality.

Also, wonder if there is a cheaper "toast" option? < 1min. I'd pay 5 dollars to help refine a toast I've done in the pas.

You should check out Andy's History of Databases (CMU Databases / Spring 2020) on youtube. He does the entire first class from the streets of Amsterdam because he can't get in his hotel... he's an interesting character and he's insanely good at explaining the ins and out

Oh wow this threw me back to film school. There is a great book by Ester Leslie called Hollywood Flatlands: Animation, Critical Theory and the Avant-Garde that walks through the overlap in animation and the avant-garde movement. It's very in-depth read if you liked this article
