Major things we’ve learned from writing like a maniac on the internet You’ll never find a hater doing better than you bowtiedbull.io/p/major-things…
There are two really dominant global stories right now, One is the relentless march of global AI + automation, and it’s rising salience in terms of what really drives the world, And the second is just mass demographic weirding, the aging of the world leading to all these weird…
