My biggest takeaway from his talk: Don’t have ideas, have instincts. Don’t get so attached to what you’re building, that you overlook how you could be wrong.

What actually is an entrepreneur? That’s what Dr. Richard Dasher (Director of the US-ATMC at Stanford since 1994) spoke about last weekend His answer: The same way musicians want to bring out their music, entrepreneurs want to realize their vision 🎶

how many friends do you have on the basis of their character, instead of what they do for a living or what their interests or beliefs are?
@aatikchopra i noticed for me: interest is what brought us together at first. character and beliefs can be (often are) different, but affects how much time i choose to spend with them. occupation makes no difference (as long as it’s not something that would put me or others in harm’s way).
What AI product – that can be built today but for some strange reason doesn't exist yet – would you pay for right now? Preference for B2B answers!
@KrishivThakuria not a cracked 15 year old anymore, L
I asked someone on their Z Fellows interview today about previous projects they'd built In high school they built facial recognition software that used their school's CCTV to track class attendance Try getting out of class now lol
@aatikchopra I have a lot of friends that fit into either the niche occupation and niche interest space, but in the end, the best friends are those that don't necessarily disagree with ur interests, but more so, are willing to say the truth to you no matter what. Those are the friends I keep.
@aatikchopra The nicher ur occupation or social status, the more likely you are to become friends with people within that smaller than usual circle. When the circle is larger, unique opinions or views on general topics such as music, sports, hobbies, etc. are usually where the friendships are
