Good But Devolving Into Punditry
It’s a good podcast with good ideas thrown around and some intellectual heft despite the tech bro vibes. The thing that is becoming disappointing is the increasing punditry— saying one thing one week and the opposite the next. I get that they’re giving “hot takes” in the moment but just have some honesty and hold each other accountable for inconsistencies. To get specific, they’ve said many times how existing laws are enough to regulate AI and we just need to enforce existing law. But then (Freidberg) is entirely dismissive when existing copyright law has so obviously and blatantly been trampled. Or Chamath speaking so derisively about the Arm IPO one week— that it’s not worth anything near the IPO price and just a bunch of old irrelevant CPU tech and will flop. But then when it pops to the moon on earnings, he’s full of praise for Masa and Softbank as a visionary. Zero mention of his weeks old prediction from anyone! Or Sacks constantly implying that the Federal Reserve is politically biased and will lower interest rates to try and hand the election to Biden but then a couple weeks later when the Federal Reserve does the exact opposite and acts in an evidence based manner to hold interest rates— there’s no mention of such a serious trust-undermining accusation-- instead they just talk more and more about how politically biased the Fed is. That kind of breezy flip floppery and lack of real analysis undermines their credibility and is the same thing they claim to despise in MSM. I’m not looking for hard core research and journalism from this show but I am looking for them to hold each other accountable just in the interest of advancing good ideas and good conversation. Otherwise— what’s the point?

I’m just happy to have another way to hear on Chamath’s thoughts on things. Can’t wait for all this knowledge.
