He's a fucking idiot who figured out how to make a web site and got lucky with what he built and when he built it. He is not brilliant by any measure. Fuck him.
All of the billionaires are fucking idiots who got lucky. I have no idea why people look up to them like they're supergeniuses. They're clearly not. We've learned to equate money with intelligence but there's actually little connection. I'd argue it's more closely aligned with immorality, and of course luck is a big part of it. The immorality just helps you turn a little startup luck into even more "luck", recursively, forever.
They literally all brag about not being educated, it's not like they didn't tell us. lol
I'd by luck you meant inqtel funding then yes.
Why is this 'either or'? He is a brilliant person and a sociopath. It's not mutually exclusive.
He is not brilliant person. He would be fired many times over if he didn't own majority shares.
For example that whole Horizon Worlds blunder.
Billions and billions into VR and AI and really nothing to show for it.
I'd say this is enough to call him brilliant.
Just because he's an arrogant sociopath doesn't mean he's also a knuckle dragging idiot.
6k words sounds pretty weak for a manifesto. He coulda just written it with ai
How would you tell which kind of fake not-person wrote it?
I passed it through checkers and it came back not AI. So if AI is an accessible super intelligence, why didn't he access it?
or
He told an LLM to make it look authentic.
Or your checker was wrong because it's also 'AI'
Yeah that's great Mark, we will all go read this then discuss in the Metaverse that you said would replace office work
Print it out and make him choke on it.
He dicked around with tech and made a lot of money. That doesn't mean his thoughts are intelligent. They're self-serving and include future purchasing. What a lack-of-visionary.
Did he even do anything with “tech”? He made a website, and by the time it got to any level of complexity there were people smarter than him doing the real work. And it’s not like MySpace didn’t already exist at the time, so as usual it’s the less creative second person with a few fewer morals who ended up with the big money.
If my air conditioner could talk, it wouldn’t shut up about how hot it is.
