Mark Zuckerberg Talks AI And That Musk Fight That's Never Going To Happen

Published 2023-09-26
The obviously-never-going-to-happen cage match with Elon Musk (“I assumed he wouldn’t do it”) put Zuckerberg back into the zeitgeist in the stupidest way, but it also served a business purpose: For much of his career, he has undermined his monumental achievements by wading through a swamp of missteps and democracy-crippling scandals. So the Musk beef was rare: an opportunity to play hero to the Tesla CEO’s petulant villain, to demonstrate that Facebook’s former “toddler CEO” has evolved into Meta’s statesman.
“The thing that determines your destiny isn’t a competitor,” he says. “It’s how you execute.”
Such reflection is well-timed. Zuckerberg will turn 40 next May, with a fortune estimated at $106 billion, a philanthropy arm designed for maximum impact and a commitment to transform one of the most important companies in the world, over which he has near total control. In many ways, he’s having his Bill Gates moment. Like Zuckerberg, Gates dropped out of Harvard to build a historically significant tech company. Like Zuckerberg, he was the nerdy boy-wonder face of his field. Like Zuckerberg, he produced fans, enemies and antitrust concerns on his brusque, relentless way to the top.

I can't believe how far AI has advanced, his movements are so life-like!
-
It’s really ironic that the more realistic AI gets the more life like Zuck gets. 😂
-
Honestly Zuc seems a lot more comfortable, cohesive, and intelligent now compared to in the past. He's learning and growing. Martial arts seem to be grounding him in all the right ways.
-
You can tell Zuck really struggles with communicating in a way that resonates with others, he's worried that he will say something insensitive or dystopian about the future. He probably realized that most people arent gonna be excited about more and more remote meetings and "virtual meetings" etc. But he's correct that its the direction the world is going because in the end is all about productivity and cost cutting.

Mark is the best AI we have ever seen.
-
- Mobile technology is the biggest innovation of Mark's lifetime. - AI is a technology that he is excited about, and it has been making great breakthroughs in the past year. - He believes that there will be multiple AI systems that people will interact with for different things. - The metaverse is another technology that he is excited about, which will allow people to feel physically present with each other no matter where they are in the world. - In the near term, VR will provide this experience, but in the long term, it will be possible through a pair of normal-looking glasses. - The goal is to build the future of human connection through these technologies. - Quest Pro and Quest 3 will allow for mixed reality and the blending of digital objects into the physical world around us. - The development of glasses with the same capabilities is a difficult tech problem, but he hopes it will be solved in the next few years.

Love how on AI he is completely open and confident in his body language. Then with the tech that bears his company name, he pauses, looks down, adjusts his position, swallows and adds "over time".
-
Wow! I’m not even sure that woman knew even who she was interviewing!
-
The elon diss got me screaming "the person would have to be pretty serious🤣" Zuck got jokes
-
“I just don’t want to be physically present”…..basically is what Zuckerborg is saying…..😂😢😂
-
Goodness MMA - his shareholders must be scared , his insurance premium just went up
-
The way he threw a jab at Elon saying “the heel hook would be used by an advanced individual” lmfao
-
Love Mark❤ always nice to listen to him and Threads is awesome man keep up the good work
-
Mark, Yann Lecun and Meta Lab are making such contribution to the open source community with llama API released
-
He s an Alien
-
Mark is well rested
-
There is something incredibly off-putting about listening to Mark talk about how magical it is to feel like you’re present in the same space as another person while he is visibly on edge having a conversation with people in the room.

Mark, I use the Quest 2 every night after work. The #1 app I use is Virtual Desktop wirelessly purely because my PC has so much more computing power. I don't even bother browsing the web with the Quest since my PC has everthing I'd want on there. I feel like this issue with trying to fit all this computational power on a smaller and smaller device is flawed. I was able to play Half-Life Alyx in my car 50km away from my PC with my iPhone on hotspot thanks to Virtual Desktop on the Quest ... my point is, we should be embracing the remote desktop approach as it lends itself to a much richer experience and might make the headsets ligther. To be honest, I love the Quest 2 and have no issues with it, only a higher resolution display and FOV would make it better for me.
-
And that very last sentence meant: "He couldn't fight me even he wanted to!" 😂😂😂 Next level shade!
-
This looks fake. Hes not really sitting on that couch
