Timeless Tuesday #5
Seek Difficulty, Great Storytelling, and AI
✍️ NEW POST: WHY YOU SHOULD FORGET YOUR PASSION
Most people are trying to find their calling. I’m not sure any of us actually have one. Here’s a strategy for finding work you love.
ONE IDEA: SEEK DIFFICULTY

Joscha Bach: Artificial Consciousness and the Nature of Reality
This episode of the AI Podcast with Lex Fridman is poetic, inspiring and all-round mind-blowing. A long episode, which I wish was longer.
Thanks to ZW for putting me onto these.
QUESTION I’M ASKING MYSELF
“What are you doing today that’s difficult?”
Catch you next Tuesday,
