Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Reads more like a smear piece, especially when there’s just a cherry picked quote or two with no links to the actual speech.

For links to California AI primary sources there was only:

A link to the press release
A link to the policy paper
A link to the executive order
A link to the Joint California Summit on Generative AI website
A link to a press release from the Joint California Summit on Generative AI
A link to a youtube video from the Joint California Summit on Generative AI
A link to the press release about a CA / Nvidia AI collaboration
A link to the blockchain executive order

So poorly cited! Mr. Gerard don't you know that if it's not in video form it doesn't exist for people raised on TikTok?? SMH.

if it’s not in video form

Actually this isn’t enough. It needs to be read by a monotone TTS or deepfaked voice with minecraft, subway surfer, or fortnite gameplay underlaid to penetrate brain rot

also, for some reason, it’s a split screen video and the right half is a sped up cooking video or someone playing with slime
