Unplug.

I’m impressed; is your 2024… And the matrix, the notion of the matrix is still a great one! Maybe the film matrix is anti-fragile from as time goes on, the film actually becomes better and more pertinent to modern day life, rather than irrelevant.

Also, I think this is also where Blade Runner will age well, because now that we have the new ChatGPT 4o (paid premium)– with the ability to have natural voice conversations, even trying it out in Korean, the Korean voice sounds so real!

Anyways, the general thought I have is maybe the future elite kids, will have the privilege of not using AI, not using ChatGPT etc. 

K-12?

OK, if you want to live in America well, there are basic things you gotta learn, like how to read right, basic arithmetic math etc.

So then if you think about the whole schooling system, what is the point of it?

First, maybe the point is socialization, learning how to play well with other kids, and ride with other humans etc. And then maybe it is these fun extracurricular activities like sports etc. Or arts, music etc. Or it is just a free babysitting daycare that you could pull your kids out, in order for you to do other stuff while your kids are in school.

I think the best strategy to approach is assume that every single kid will have access to an iPhone pro, with the paid premium version of ChatGPT. If this is the case… Maybe some sort of real world training is useful.

For example, I ChatGPT really good at doing tedious things, even one of the best things in TurboTax recently is having tax connect to your bank account and credit card, and it automatically files all of your expenses, according to category. I used to have to do this manually, and it was so insanely tedious, this is what I actually hated most about doing taxes. Now, it is super easy!

Also, tea is good at simple rhyme, or it is like a targeted Google or Wikipedia search, that doesn’t require you to look at advertisements. In fact my suggestion is anytime you want to google something, just first ChatGPT it.

Also, the reason why I find ChatGPT should be such an amazing great thing is that it doesn’t take you down rabbit holes, like Wikipedia or Google. In fact, I love hyperlink, but often hyperlinks are a huge distraction, that take you down these bizarre rabbit holes. if you spend enough time on Wikipedia, sooner or later you’ll come across any conspiracy theory, the similar thing that happens on Google search or YouTube.

Get rid of Google, YouTube, Wikipedia

Obviously ChatGPT is flawed, but still, because it is a paid premium product, at least there is not a problematic financial incentive at play; the incentive of open AI and ChatGPT is to create the best possible product, to best assist humans and humanity, and it hopes that everyone will subscribe to their paid model for $20 a month, which is a real and a good sustainable business model. 

Compare this with Google, which I think when it comes down to it is an unethical company. Why? 99% of the revenue is through paid search, or display advertisements, or YouTube ads or whatever. And therefore the financial incentive for creators is to create things which have maximum Machach factor, in order to maximize eyeball exposure, which tends to be around extremes in terms of human fears, concerns, doubts, Things that make people angry.

In fact, the notion of “injustice “porn; when you spend enough time on Twitter Instagram Facebook TikTok podcast whatever… Sooner or later you will feel unjust about something and it will make you angry!

Anger is a great monetization strategy
