If they are so damn smart, why do they spend so much time on social media?
"I'm a founder"
"I'm a mom, AI CEO and Venture Capitalist"
"I'm a professor at NYU"
Dude. You are literally spending hours posting shit on X
Shouldn't you be reading books? Focusing? Reading papers?
Preparing your courses?
Running your business?
Why are you spending hours posting shit on a garbage social media network?
There is overwhelming evidence that using social media is detrimental to the ability to focus and do intellectually demanding tasks.
JK Rowling didn't write Harry Potter by spending her time on social media. George R. R. Martin didn't write Game of Throne by spending time on social media.
Today's social media is a dumpster fire.
Right now, the only reason I use that trash is because I'm very depressed and I have other issues. In fact, social media contributes to depression and I'm trying to fix my life.
And these "elite people" are posting on the worst social media website?!
We are supposed to believe you just write scientific papers and share them on X? And you also run Silicon Valley businesses? And you actually teach courses at top universities?
Who exactly are you kidding?
that first guy's bio "rational in the fullness of time" is so far up its own ass. yeah bud, I'm sure you're so smart that you can know the future by attenuating to every stand of data Sherlock mind palace style. these guys have to convince themselves that they have superpowers to avoid the otherwise inevitable conclusion that they're successful because they started lucky and got luckier, and if the cards had fallen slightly differently they'd be no better than the rest of us
