Tell me you’re American without telling me you’re American

Statistics was one of the hardest classes for me. Seeing a Stanford professor struggle with it gives me some relief 😂😂😂😂

Solving hard problems has the tendency to teach very crucial lessons. Lessons that have applications not only in the problem one set out to solve but in other areas one had never imagined of.

In the beginning, start out small— find the one narrow thing that you can do well, and carve out something that's great.

I am super excited to announce that we have raised a $2.5M Seed Round to optimise on-demand delivery service in Africa.

We’ve delved too much into the word delve. Time to delve into something else now

This is not it.

PG - the use of word “delve” in a text indicates the text is likely generated using ChatGPT and it might be a turn off.

X users - But a big part of the English speaking world (the example of Nigeria is used) still uses words like “delve” that PG might recognize…

Who would have thought “delve” in a writing isn’t necessarily an indication it was AI generated.

I’m thinking of founding a new company called Delve AI. Mission? To teach Americans the English dialects of other countries. The app will delve deeper into how different non native speakers of English use the language in their day to day life - formal or informal 😂😂😂

It is not easy to understand until you are the minority in a setting. As an example, if you moved to the US or worked with a remote team you will quickly understand how unconscious these biases are. Many pple will hire & promote people who look like them

You know we have lost the race to AGI when companies are targeting a million GPUs to get there. But I still have hope that Yann LeCun has the best approach that will one day get us there. I wish other world class researchers followed his lead. Watch him keenly.

If you’re doing a live demo of your AI product and the user doesn’t shout “Lisan al-Gaib” after every step of the demo, are you even building an AI product?

Hot take: Universities shouldnt teach tools like Git

Universities are meant to challenge thinking, dive deep into concepts from first principles, and push academic boundaries

They are not there to show you how to use Git or any other tool

Professors can make students aware of…

“I don’t trust closed-source model.” Like how does a model being closed or open source influence your trust? They’re both black boxes and our trust comes from how accurate and helpful they are. Unless you’re worried about data privacy - which isn’t an AI problem in particular.

Daniel Kahneman, working with Amos Tversky, gave us one of the most influential concepts of all time. When I see people say AI will surpass human intelligence in a year, I always wonder if they’ve read Khaneman’s Nobel winning work on System 1. Rest easy champ!

Safaricom PLC IS ONE BIG CRIME SCENE.

Wueh!
I do not think of any other befitting word to start this conversation.
Before going further, take a few seconds and immediately uninstall all Safaricom Apps on your phone. I will tell you why shortly.

IGNOMINIOUS!
