NEW 🚨"Our generation has it so much easier in what you can build and create [with AI], if you're willing to work... There are 2 million small businesses that Baby Boomers have to sell right now..." Politicians aren't supposed to say that. You're supposed to say, 'You've been mistreated, you're a victim.' But it is an awesome time to build if you're willing to work... @JTLonsdale on the @RuthlessPodcast with @ComfortablySmug, @HolmesJosh & @MichaelDuncan Josh Holmes: Do you feel like this is a new American economic revolution? Joe Lonsdale: You can't help but be optimistic when you see the capabilities of these models and what's going to happen with productivity. I'm a fan of Kevin Warsh. I've known him a long time. He's the chairman of the Federal Reserve, and one of the things he'll be doing in the next year is using all the staff there to measure productivity in our economy, because that's a huge part of what's happening here. The only way we all get wealthier is if productivity goes up, and it's very clearly going to go up a lot. I'd be totally shocked if it doesn't over the next few years. When it does, that's going to create a lot of wealth and a lot of jobs, if we can manage not to rip each other apart with our crazy populists and keep this an actual capitalist economy where you're allowed to build things and innovate. There are 2 million small businesses that baby boomers have to sell right now. It's so much more fun to run a small business using even a little bit of AI. Our generation has it so much easier in what you can build and create, if you're willing to work. It's not popular to say. Politicians aren't supposed to say that. You're supposed to say, "Oh, you're so tough, you've been mistreated, you're a victim." But it is an awesome time to build if you're willing to work.
