Nothing. I'm the one getting advice. Someone told me to invest in Nvidia. I'm not doing that because my money is managed, and I'm not prepared to follow the markets too closely myself. My friend Fred wants me to work for him. But he can't offer me much except for the promise of billions at a one to a trillion chance.

I'm worried that poor countries will be left behind. Eventually the people will try to leave, and then who knows what will happen? I think that the situation will escalate quickly. If anyone needs to do something, it's the politicians in those countries.

actually AI and especially AGI has the potential of helping out poor nations far more than the current world. robotics and access to quality intelligence in remote regions, along with massive advancements in medicine along with huge price reductions will increase their livelyhood and longevity rapidly. I don't know if OpenAI will lead those charges, but open source models are becoming more advanced by the day.

My experience from getting bounced paychecks and offers of zero: if they're not paying you then you're not worth anything to them, they're just checking to see what they can bust out of you like Link with the random clay pots he finds.

All the people offering me zero or writing me bad checks found money for plenty of things that weren't my full time job of putting out their fires and facing their enemies for them.
