Simple is better than complicated.

Here's my conversation with Guido van Rossum, creator of Python, one the most popular and impactful programming languages in the world. We talk all about the future of programming, from the philosophical to the technical. This was super fun! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DVyjdw4t9I

For me, it's never okay to betray a friend. Not for any amount of money, power, sex, or fame.

Great lifelong friendships is one of the most awesome aspects of our time here on Earth.

Here's my conversation with Todd Howard, legendary video game designer, who led the development of some of the greatest games ever made (Elder Scrolls, Fallout). I spent countless happy hours in worlds created by Todd & team. From all us fans: Thank you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9AAnV59ddE

Don't be jealous of other people's success. Celebrate it, use it as inspiration. Life is way more fun that way.

I attended the Neuralink event this week, talked to engineers there and was extremely impressed and inspired by their team.

While I hope to continue doing podcasts, my goal in 2023 is to spend most of my time building stuff, either by joining a strong team or starting a new one.

I appreciate the emotional honesty of this piece of wood.

I'm hiring to help with podcast. We have a small team of amazing people. Join us. I need help, so that I can spend 80 hours a week on non-podcast, technical work. We need editors, reviewers, translators (w/ english & non-english voice-over skills), etc: https://lexfridman.com/hiring/

Here's my conversation with Noam Brown, co-creator of AI systems that achieve superhuman level performance in games of poker and Diplomacy that involves strategic negotiations with humans. This was a fascinating, technical conversation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oHH4aClJQs

If it didn't meme, it didn't happen.

I'm not right-wing or left-wing, no matter how much either side attacks. In the end, we're one. I love you all.

For podcasts, I am trying my best to have honest, empathetic conversations with voices on the left & the right, each time steelmanning their case & the opposing case.

Love you bro. I'm here for you. Everything will be okay 🤣

Here's my conversation with Coffeezilla about SBF, FTX, financial fraud, scams & fake gurus. Coffeezilla is one of the most important journalistic voices working today, in terms of his integrity and fearlessness. Please support his work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hi9Rf0oLdHk

Two amazing World Cup games today, both ended in penalty kicks. I was on edge of seat, forgetting to breath, for entire overtime of Argentina game.

The dream of Messi winning the World Cup lives on!

If you look for a reason to hate a person, eventually you'll find it. If you look for a reason to celebrate a person, eventually you'll find it.

The former leads to resentment and destructive cynicism. The latter leads to happiness and growth for you and for those you celebrate.

Here's my conversation with Ed Calderon about Mexican drug cartels, ambushes, assassinations, kidnappings, narco cults, fentanyl, drug war, immigration, PTSD, and mortality. This was a powerful and eye-opening conversation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PIOoJMMptA

I feel like I have 2 voices in my head, one negative and one positive, and I just sit back and listen to their conversation like it's a podcast.

Let's go Messi and Argentina!!

I'm watching the game live while running on a treadmill, otherwise I would die of stress over the game.

Messi and Argentina are in the World Cup Finals!!!!!!

I'll try to livestream on YouTube on Sunday if you want to hang out with me virtually during the world cup final game.

I have a big stupid happy smile on my face! 🤣

I love France. They have an amazing team and are a huge favorite, but let's be honest, it would be epic if Morocco advances to the World Cup Finals. I love rooting for the underdog 🤣 Let's go Morocco!! 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
