One of my favorite sayings is a remark attributed to Gandhi, a man who, to me, exemplified the full power of integrity. “I do not concern myself with being consistent,” he was supposed to have said. “I only concern myself with being consistent with the truth as it reveals itself to me.”

Me: Serious question: do people actually believe stories that are so transparently stupid, or is it mostly an elaborate bit (that is, there is at least a voice of moderate loudness expressing doubt internally) in a sad attempt to get money from AI grifters?

All pretenses aside, Andy Warhol’s quote is the dominant sentiment of our time: “Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.” Making money is a high.

instagram.comIt's not a question of rearranging your to-do list so as to make space for all your "big rocks", but of accepting that there are simply too many rocks to fit in the jar.
