— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) April 7, 2023
You're rewarded for creating something of value.
So don't work unnecessarily hard on something that you haven't validated people want.
Instead, run small experiments over & over again until you have a few strong outcomes.
Then double down.

Most Technologies Aren't Races In a fast takeoff, it could be that you go to sleep with China six months ahead of the US, and wake up the next morning with China having fusion, nanotech, and starships ........ The only case where there’s a single critical point - where you either have the transformative AI or nothing - is in the hard-takeoff scenario where at a certain threshold AI recursively self-improves to infinity. If someone reaches this threshold before you do, then you’ve lost a race! ........ The whole point of a singularity is that it’s hard to imagine what happens on the other side of it. I care a lot how much relative power Xi Jinping, Mark Zuckerberg, and Joe Biden have today, but I don’t know how much I care about them after a singularity.
