Robert Scoble

I hear he screwed up Apple’s autonomous vehicle project. So you might be right

No. The AI world is on X.

I can’t do here what I do there.

I won’t be shocked if Elon never sells them. But I would buy one.

The Cybercab thesis. Diffs into all autonomous vehicles deeply.

Read the comments on these videos. Makes me emotional.

Found 9,000 in AI here. Am watching closely. I just can’t do here what I do there yet. For a variety of reasons. The content just hasn’t come close yet for innovators. But there is something here. For liberal journalists? Totally.

Great meeting you yesterday. Can we do a video? Got an investor nibbling.

Love!

Kai Fu-Lee was first to show me AI at Microsoft research earlier but he didn’t call NLP AI.

One of the founders, Cheyer, used to run the biggest AI group in the world before he started Siri at SRI.

He and investors said it was first consumer app to use AI.

Here is an insightful interview with the original investors.

The race is on to make AI agents do your online shopping for you | TechCrunch Millions of Americans will pop open their laptops to buy gifts this holiday season, but tech companies are racing to turn the job of online shopping over

I wrote a breakdown of the race to create AI shopping agents.

Perplexity is partnering with Stripe to let AI agents make payments. Rabbit is teaching AI agents to use the front end of websites.

And OpenAI and Google could enter the race in 2025,

In short: it's on.

I am following 9,000 almost all of whom are in AI. Quite a list!

Heh. Both really. If your app is shit no one will talk about it. If your app is amazing then you can increase growth by showing it to people.

Execution gets you distribution.

:-)

How can I not? The tech industry is way more interesting than any football game. :-)

What an inventory!

Next year we'll see a ton of new stuff. I'll be at CES to see the latest.

That doesn't match my experience at all. But I only follow smart people and put them into lists.

I'm very fortunate that I don't need to make a business work. At least not today. Maybe someday! :-)

I don't know. I have my AI read them and tell me which one is more important to read first.

More like "tepid water" here. Over on X he got 157 likes. Which, too, is down from his usual 2,000. Will need more data, but I'm seeing tons of very low engagement posts here. Very strange given that I've found 9,000 AI people here to follow.

I'm trying to figure it out myself. I see so many posts get almost no engagement here. Very weird, given how many said they were moving here (I've found almost 9,000 in AI here, but many are clearly not posting).

Over on X Brett's post got 157 likes, which isn't his usual 2,000.

He only got five likes after four hours here.

That isn't looking good for Bluesky.

My brain hallucinates mistakes too so I understood what you meant. :-)

That is true!

But the best are. :-)

I loved shooting photos from the GoPro boat out there one year.

Such epic athletes! They have to paddle a long way to get to the waves. Their arms are massive!

I was the first to see Siri, which was the first consumer application that used AI.

When I saw it I really didn't have much of an idea of what AI was.

Since then my understanding of AI has dramatically changed.

Even the founders of Siri say they were shocked by how good ChatGPT was.

Yup.

Most people haven't given any of this a look recently. Next year lots of new things are coming that will blow people away, particularly if they haven't tried VR yet or followed that industry.

Exciting times!

Love you too!

...than any other human has.

Your note just rubbed me a bit because it doesn't recognize why people built big audiences over there properly.
