If you’re making 100k at 27, you’re: > doing better than the median Ivy League graduate > In the top 10% of income nationwide > In the top 0.5% of income globally
––Mathias Döpfner: Sam, is it actually true that your kind of favorite book is The Beginning of Infinity of Dieter Deutsch? @sama: Yeah, I think if I had to pick one favorite book, I would pick that. ––Mathias Döpfner: Why is that so fascinating? Can you explain that?…
Sam Altman proposed a future AGI test: if a model like "GPT-8" solved quantum gravity and could explain the reasoning behind its discovery would that qualify as AGI? David Deutsch agreed that it would qualify as AGI, making it a potential benchmark
We built the Bloomberg Terminal, but for Apps:
The math behind making money with UGC Let's say > 95% of the time you get 500 views > 4% of the time you get 20k views > 1% of the time you get 500k views > Say u pay $20 base + $1 cpm + $5 RPM. The first sim below plots number of videos vs expected profit. You lose money in…
How to make money with this: Music labels and digital distributors are paying for placements of their artists into playlists. Esp small/mid size ones, that's a "guaranteed" way to get streams. Playlist placements became a prime way to grow streams after Spotify radically…

Sam Altman says the industry is bottlenecked by compute, and OpenAI can't meet demand Over the next 1-2 years, scarcity could force painful tradeoffs, "cure cancer research vs free global education" No one wants to make that choice. The only answer: scale up
so let me get this right: Oracle says Openai committed $300B for cloud compute → oracle stock jumps 36% (best day since 1992) Oracle runs on Nvidia GPUs → has to buy billions in chips from Nvidia Nvidia just announced they're investing $100B into openai Openai uses that…
Paid ads are a scam designed for the weak: > Made over 200M views for this one app > Would've cost over > $800,000 dollars with paid ads > Paid < $8K > Paid ads are just a lazy shortcut for the opulent ready to pay a 100x markup > Don’t hand over all your hard-earned cash on a…

This is probably the most complex workflow I’ve ever built, only with open-source tools. It took my 4 days. It takes four inputs: author, title, and style; and generates a full visual animated story in one click in @ComfyUI . I worked on it for four days. There are still some…
The algorithm will be purely AI by November, with significant progress along the way. We will open source the algorithm every two weeks or so. By November or certainly December, you will be able to adjust your feed dynamically just by asking Grok.

Introducing AI Generated transitions; these are so dope - let me know if you'd like to test?
Cannot emphasize this enough, given how many cool AI things coming out: The battle between every startup and incumbent comes down to whether the startup gets distribution before the incumbent gets innovation. The solution is often to "go boring" - read linked post:
My father-in-law is a builder. It is difficult to get his attention in a magnificent space because he is lost in wonder. We were in a Chicago together years ago and I asked him what it would cost to build it today. I’ll never forget his answer… “We can’t, ornament is a crime.”
Unfortunately, this is everywhere now. Could be Oklahoma City, Phoenix, Austin, Atlanta or Charlotte. Sprawl is the processed food of city building. And it’s making us sick, depressed, lonely, and bankrupt. Only takes a relatively small group of ppl to change this, & we must.
New people, young people and poor people should spend 2-3 hours a day schlepping to and from work and risking their health and safety so that the owners of $2M homes don’t have to look at buildings or people they don’t like is an extremely bad take with massive externalities.
