I asked ChatGPT to analyse my ‘For You’ feed for hidden mood manipulation... it definitely found some things: The emotional atmosphere is: • High arousal: hot takes, ambition, intellectual pressure, outrage • Status-comparison loops: achievements, big-name validation, productivity wins • Cultural noise: memes, jokes, absurdity • Threat cues: DDoS attacks, political chaos Baseline effects: • Slightly heightened anxiety • Constant micro-comparison to others • Pressure to “stay in the loop” • Feeling like the world is fast + unstable • Fragmented attention • Less calm + spaciousness Comment if you want the prompt to analyse your own feed
@gregisenberg Wow, huge response. I want to make you an AI that personalises your advice for your audience. It will transform your overwhelmed inbox, and give you hours back every week. DM me.
@albysjourney @ycombinator Good luck dude!

Deep fake Sinatra covering Schism is the entire purpose of AI
Humanity will split. Not class war - something weirder. Those who can steer externalised reasoning vs those who are steered by it. Those who use AI to amplify their agency vs those who outsource agency to AI The differentiator becomes: "do you know what you want?"
But also: someone confused becomes more confused (lost in algorithmic slop and AI-enabled confirmation bias). Someone lazy becomes more passive (why think when AI thinks for you?). Bad faith actors cause exponentially more damage.
Writing externalised memory. Civilisation became accumulative. Knowledge could compound across generations. You got philosophy, law, science, history. Cities grew because you could coordinate through records. Empires became administrable. Oral cultures died.
“Well-written = true” collapsed with ChatGPT The replacement is “feels right = true” We’re returning to belief-based reality

@Dan_Jeffries1 Absolutely cooking. Was that your whole prompt?
“No person in the world should worry about economic insufficiency while chasing their uniqueness. This privilege should be socialised”
Hi, notes from a guy who was raised by a very successful father, and grew up around friends with very successful fathers: 1. Its true, life with money can be boring. Although my father never bought us anything but economy (he insisted we buy luxury with our own money— more on
@Iwhoaminane @jxmnop The one person in the comments that knows what’s up
If nature had a way to sustain riskier bets, what would it look like? Yeast contains a protein Hsp90 that inhibits many mutations, but stops working under stress (drought, heat). Suddenly, a multi-generational treasure chest of adaptions appears. Most bad, some just right.
Technological change from market investors is like evolution. It enforces a mechanism where change only comes from incremental improvements, not leaps into the unknown. But despite that constraint it delivered all the complexity of nature?
It’s kind of scary to think that if there were a technology that was extremely useful to humanity to build, but it was extremely capital intensive, and building it incrementally wouldn’t have a smooth gradient of returns/revenue, we might just never build it.
