Scariest video I've watched this week America's next generation actively booing the most transformative technology our species has ever seen In China grandmas line up to get OpenClaw installed In America, supposedly our most educated people BOO even the mention of AI The west simply does not stand a chance if this continues We have a massive AI marketing problem in this country and nobody is doing anything to fix it Tomorrow Meta will announce 8,000 layoffs. They will blame it completely on AI They won't blame it on their irresponsible hiring in 2021 or extended elevated rates or horrible market conditions or bad inflation No, in order to not tank their stock, they'll blame it on AI College students will read that and learn to HATE the technology They'll protest outside datacenters holding ridiculous signs that say "SAVE OUR WATER NO MORE DATACENTERS" Politicians will see this and run on blocking data centers just to get a few votes All of it will be a cycle that leads to America losing to China This should be a warning sign to all frontier labs and CEOs: messaging matters. And if your messaging doesn't change the West is cooked

Great line from @shellypalmer that I’ll paraphrase - AI shouldn’t be a ghostwriter, it should be a sparring partner. Best way to keep your job isn’t to dismiss AI. It’s to engage with it and find where it’s wrong. In order for AI to know it’s wrong, you have to spend a lot

I’m coming to the conclusion that the biggest challenge for Enterprise AI, and AI in general , as of now, is that it’s still impossible to make sure that everyone gets the same answer to the same question, every time. Which is a great response to the doomers. AI doesn’t know the consequences of its output. Judgement and the ability to challenge AI output is becoming increasingly necessary, and valuable. Which makes domain knowledge more valuable by the second. Am I wrong ?

cleared ~$214k using a setup like this recently people think scaling comes from better ads it doesn’t it comes from faster iteration this is the whole system - one product - multiple static angles generated with ai - turned into ugc-style videos instantly - pushed across tiktok + meta claude handles hooks + angles everything else gets rendered and launched fast no overthinking funnels no long creative cycles no waiting on anyone just test → read data → double down same structure repeated daily that’s how volume compounds into results rt + comment “loop” and i’ll send the full breakdown (follow for dm)

Even if we assume the Trump admin isn’t lying about him being armed- The right says guns exist to protect us from a tyrannical government. But when masked government agents start abducting people, exercising that right somehow becomes proof you deserved to be executed?

most ppl completely misunderstand what storytelling means in this era. let me explain in very very simple terms. storytelling is not marketing (people are very confused by this), in fact it’s not really a marketing role at all. people think journalists can be story tellers (maybe, but not really). ppl think it’s creating ai slop, posting to x, creating launch videos, or brand theater. nope. this is pure garbage most of the time. real storytelling is a product & technology function. the real *why* behind anything you do or build. steve jobs was the one of the greatest story tellers ever. look at how he talks about a very simple new feature (the proximity sensor) on the original iphone. before iphone very few phones had it. look at crispness of he talks about a tiny thing… why does this exist? why should you care? then answers them in ~20 seconds flat. the explanation is emotional, practical, & instantly relatable. you feel smart for understanding it. you think, “oh of course.” this moment is storytelling. it compresses complexity into legibility. it turns engineering decisions into human meaning. that’s the storytelling craft. none of it is persuasion, & it’s certainly not hype. just pure sense making. this is why great founders are the greatest marketers. one explains what you should buy. the other explains why reality had to be this way.

In NBA history, only one player has ever done each of these in the same season: - 50+ point game - 30/15/15 game - 25+ point game without attempting a single free throw That player is Nikola Jokic, who did each of those in the last eight days.

my favourite quote from atomic habits by James clear; "It doesn't make sense to continue wanting something if you're not willing to do what it takes to get it. If you don't want to live the lifestyle, then release yourself from the desire. To crave the result but not the process, is to guarantee disappointment"

23 lessons from David Ogilvy: 1. Search all the parks in all your cities; you'll find no statues of committees. 2. The best ideas come as jokes. Make your thinking as funny as possible. 3. You are advertising to a moving parade, not a standing army. 4. Do not address your readers as though they were gathered together in a stadium. When people read your copy, they are alone. 5. Remember you are a human being writing to another human being. Neither of you is an institution 6. Tell your prospective client your weakness before they notice them. This will make you more credible when you boast about your strong points. 7. Avoiding excess in all things is a recipe for dullness and mediocrity. 8. A good advertisement is one which sells the product without drawing attention to itself. 9. There is no need for advertisements to look like advertisements. If you make them look like editorial pages, you will attract about 50% more readers 10. Big ideas come from the unconscious. This is true in art, in science, and in advertising. But your unconscious has to be well-informed, or your idea will be irrelevant 11. People who think well, write well 12. The most important word in the vocabulary of advertising is 'test'. 13. On average, five times as many people read the headline as read the body copy. 14. When you have written your headline, you have spent eighty cents out of your dollar. 15. Tell the truth, but make the truth fascinating 16. Advertising is only evil when it advertises evil things. 17. Advertising people who ignore research are as dangerous as generals who ignore decodes of enemy signals. 18. Raise your sights. Blaze new trails. Compete with the immortals. 19. I am a lousy copywriter, but I am a good editor. So I go to work editing my own draft. 20. If you're trying to persuade people to buy something, use the language in which they think. 21. Insist that due dates are kept even if it means working all night. Hard work never killed a man. People die of boredom 22. If you are lucky enough to write a good advertisement, repeat it until it stops selling. 23. At the start of your career in advertising, what you learn is more important than what you earn.
