I would love to talk to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on podcast.

We can disagree and still like each other. Let's not conflate disagreement with disdain or hate. Debate with friends is essential for progress.

Back in my day... 🤣

A little chaos & silliness is making Twitter extra fun.

50% serious + 50% lolz is a good mix.

Here's my conversation with Abbas Amanat, a historian at Yale specializing in the modern history of Iran. We talk about the Iran protests, the death of Mahsa Amini, abuses of power, nuclear weapons, and the history & future of Iran and the Middle East. youtube.com/watch?v=OYsYgz…

Listen to people's pain, not their anger and hatred.

I'm chatting with Ben Shapiro soon. If you have questions/topic suggestions, let me know.

I will not shy away from challenging conversations with folks on the left and right, always seeking understanding through empathy, curiosity, and compassion.

Understanding alleviates hate.

I'm thinking of coding up a bot that catches Twitter spam bots. Seems like a fun & challenging problem to solve.

Thanks Lex, I've enjoyed many of the previous episodes so it was a pleasure to come on!
(we've known each other from before the podcast (via MIT/autonomy), it's been awesome to watch you grow it so successfully over time 👏)

Here's my conversation with Andrej Karpathy (Andrej Karpathy), a legendary AI researcher, engineer, and educator, and former director of AI at Tesla. This chat was super fun, technical, and inspiring. youtube.com/watch?v=cdiD-9…

Twitter team should be about great engineering not activism.

I'm excited for the future of Twitter.

Tribalism, especially dogmatic tribalism, is silly.

Above all else, we're human. We're one tribe.

Sex is the great motivator for most complex life on Earth: humans, plants, fungi, even many single-celled organisms.

Bacteria, though, don't give a damn. They're incels.

Anger, pain, resentment, and even hate are best healed through compassionate conversation, not through censorship and derision.

Here's my conversation with Ye aka Kanye West (ye). Given my family history in the 20th century, this was difficult but important. I believe in the power of tough, honest, empathetic conversation to increase the amount of love in the world. youtube.com/watch?v=4AWLcx…

History of life on Earth is full of love and suffering. I believe that in the long-run: love wins.

This is one hurts. Too real 🤣

Kindness and empathy is not weakness, it's strength.
