If you think San Francisco is only 4-5 years behind NYC culturally then you are a philistine idiot. San Francisco is decades behind NYC and anyone with an iota of taste in their body knows this. NYC clears SF in food, night life, music, arts, fashion, urbanism, walkability, intellectual spaces, and exposed brick walls. If you have observed how people in the two cities even just dress and carry themselves you know it's a hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby situation. NYC has comedy clubs, theater, and intellectual life spanning EVERYTHING, not just AI and tech. In New York I can go see a play, get dinner in a dimly lit restaurant, and then get drinks with my friends for like $500. You can't do that in SF. In NYC I can go to a party in Brooklyn and meet amazing experimental visual artists who really don't like getting asked if their parents pay for their nice 1 bedrooms. Yesterday I went bar hopping during the day to catch all the Big 10 football games which is becoming a huge cultural mainstay in Manhattan. Yeah, we're culturally and intellectually superior to San Francisco tech nerds. Do I even need to mention the subway?

after going to sf all i can think about is how loud people work there- nyc is a hustle in silence and then move out to greenwich for even more silence . think sf is sort of asian striverism echo chamber. however can see myself living there and raising a family >30yo
AI researchers are part of the overlord class- able to make hundreds of millions of AI responses favor Japanese culture through their personal biases . Much to be said about this. Able to build your cathedral at these spots .
Researchers proved every LLM is secretly obsessed with Japan.
And they finally figured out why.
They published a paper investigating hidden cultural biases in large language models.
they tested 31,000 questions across 24 different languages on models like gemini, chatgpt,
human to agent to agent to human communication is one of those things where business schools teach about how timing is important, why are we building H2A2A2H software if adoption is <.05% for these things
is biology the final truth ? thinking about longer term going into pharma instead of robotics. personalized medicine. The frontier needs to catch up. Robotics is much more flashy but there will be an inventible future where i can create my own personalized peptides in my kitchen
i like thinking about the future assuming everything to the extreme (abundance, post singularity, etc.) lifestyle and then via backwards induction thinking what I want to build today
