Philosophy Mondays: Human-AI Collaboration
Today's Philosophy Monday is an important interlude. I want to reveal that I have not been writing the posts in this series entirely by myself. Instead I have been working with Claude, not just for the graphic illustrations, but also for the text. My method has been to write a rough draft and then ask Claude for improvement suggestions. I will expand this collaboration to other intelligences going forward, including open source models such as Llama and DeepSeek. I will also explore other moda...

Web3/Crypto: Why Bother?
One thing that keeps surprising me is how quite a few people see absolutely nothing redeeming in web3 (née crypto). Maybe this is their genuine belief. Maybe it is a reaction to the extreme boosterism of some proponents who present web3 as bringing about a libertarian nirvana. From early on I have tried to provide a more rounded perspective, pointing to both the good and the bad that can come from it as in my talks at the Blockstack Summits. Today, however, I want to attempt to provide a coge...

Yesterday was an impressive day in tech news. Here are three announcements that caught my attention:
I believe that each of these is important in their own right (and they may make it into their own blog posts). But what is mostly on my mind is how much is changing and how quickly that change is occurring.
When people ask me whether investing in web services is a long-term opportunity, I often say that “we ain’t seen nothing yet." A day like yesterday really confirms that for me. Even areas that might seem settled, such as the basic paradigms of search and site navigation could still be completely disrupted. In fact, earlier this week I had two separate conversations with people who are working hard on fundamentally changing the way people interact with content and commerce. What an amazing time for entrepreneurs!
