Interested in robots and humans.
- I'm going to have a heart attack. This is the greatest World Cup game I've ever seen.
- Replying to @MrBeastIf I win, I will give all winnings to a randomly selected liker of this comment (picked by Python script)
- Elon Musk acquiring Twitter is a big win for free speech.
- 99% of Zoom meetings could be replaced with an email.
- It is becoming harder and harder to know what is true.
- The Twitter Files release is historic. This will strengthen our democracy.
- I stand with Joe Rogan. It is not a coincidence that the attacks calling him racist come as pressure on Spotify to censor builds. Politicians and the media profit on division & outrage. They fuel the extremes that make us believe we're divided. We're not. We're in this together.
- The White House pressuring Spotify to censor Joe Rogan is un-American. We are better than this.
- Sadly, I've been attacked a lot over past 2 days. For example, my Wikipedia page was edited to mostly remove my time at MIT. I'm a Research Scientist at MIT, working there since 2015. I love it. The people there are amazing. The attacks aren't fun, but I remain optimistic ❤️
- I did an impromptu training session with @elonmusk for a few hours yesterday. I'm extremely impressed with his strength, power, and skill, on the feet and on the ground. It was epic. It's really inspiring to see Elon and Mark doing martial arts, but I think the world is served
- I'm excited for the future of Twitter.
- Spotify not caving under pressure to censor is admirable and important.
- Human tendency to conform, especially when in large groups, is terrifying. Propaganda machines leverage this throughout human history. The way out is to think freely, detached from the divisive narratives of the day that masquerade as universal truths. This often feels lonely.
