“What shocks me the most when i travel to the West is that even the new generations dread the future and display many of the symptoms associated with anxiety, including the inability to make plans and see them through.
As they can't identify the root cause of their distress, they indulge in fantasies about themselves and the world around them.
Thus
The Future and Reality
I don’t want to go live in a cabin and swear off AI.
I want a world where “slow AI” doesn’t sound like such an oxymoron.
Where we collectively stop falling for the empty promise of doing more, faster.
And focus on doing less, better.
The goal can’t be making more stuff.
It has to be making something wonderful.

Curation and Future of Search and Context
Revisited: one thing I saw growing up with the Internet as Google grew, was that small lists and directories tended to disappear, and then re-appear in new incarnations, providing service, curation and selection that Google itself couldn't match, for people willing to search them out and of course pay the premium, and where there was enough interest to support this. They didn't scale - they didn't turn into chains of 30 indie directories networks - but they often prospered.
