California is one of the most dynamic places on the planet.

But it is a case study in how a rich society can spend more and more while producing less and less of what its ordinary citizens need.

I get asked a lot what it was like to work with Steve Jobs. Probably the biggest thing I learned is that there is no "good enough" when it comes to the basics: communicating, motivating, and most importantly, thinking. Steve was obsessed with the quality of his own thinking. He was able to generate a mental map of a problem space faster and more deftly than anyone I've known because he worked at it. Over the course of a career, that skill compounds more than anything else.

Thanks for the conversation @jaltma
I love the description of Pixar as a miracle factory. How do you create the conditions to make special outcomes more likely?

@ROWGHANI helped build Pixar, working closely with Steve Jobs and Ed Catmull in their golden era. He also worked closely with the Twitter founders and dvised some of the best founders through his work at YC Continuity and now his own fund First Harmonic. I love talking to Ali and always learn something new. Hope you enjoy.

We have not seen the likes of AI's around-the-world spread before. It took 23 years for 90% of internet users to be outside of North America. ChatGPT has achieved this in 3.
