If AI allows us make birds as intelligent as humans, we can hire them to deliver packages. It would really disrupt a lot of logistic businesses.

Startup Idea: A metal case in busy parts of the city. If you want to auction off something you don't care too much about, you drop it in there with a note holding your account number. The company sells it for you an sends you the money to your account. Easiest way to sell…

There is no reward for having good tweets, so why should we tweet? You have no expanded reach, and people who actually want to see your tweets don't see your normal tweets anymore.

Idea for luxury brands: invest small amounts of money in high potential people, with them promising to buy your brand when they 'make it'.

'Gucci: We believed in you when nobody else did'.

Aluminium bikes for kids seem like such an obvious idea - why did it take so long for them to be made?

Companies and company stock adjust to any money that is printed. A company stays productive, irrespective of amount of money in the economy. If money is printed, all company values increase.

U.S Americans should be taking their extraordinary wealth and investing privately in businesses all around the world. That's how they can diversify and tap into global growth.

TikTok is a proper meritocracy. There is no gatekeeping there - if your content is good, you do well there. This pattern is going to happen across all industries - anything with few gatekeepers will be replaced by pure meritocracies.

Nigeria understands something: so long they keep Akwa Ibom and Rivers State fat and happy, it will be very difficult for a new Biafran war to happen.

There is nothing fundamentally or structurally wrong with the world economy. Interest rates are high right now because of the COVID excesses, but this too will pass. Position well now for an inevitable future.

Once again, my solution for middle eastern peace: Both sides need to compromise and deal with the reality of the situation. West Bank should merge with Israel to form a single, greater Israel. Gaza should gain land in the Sinai and Eilat to form a viable, independent Palestinian…

If small kids are playing somewhere, I think it's super rude to let your big dogs run around them. Sure, you may think your dogs are completely safe, but now every parent of the kids cannot relax and has to watch your dogs the entire time.

This is one of the worst movies ever made by man. Do not watch.

I hope I am wrong, but I think the Israelis will attack along the border, then make two exits and force the Palestinians into the Sinai.

Many evil people do not hate people, they actually believe what they are doing is necessary for the world to become a better place.

Idea: LLM dolls. You can get a doll version of Paul Graham (and other such people) with a trained LLM inside it. Anytime you need advice you poke it in the chest and ask it. It replies based on past writings. He gets royalties.
