Writes Hyperdimensional, a newsletter on AI policy and governance. A White House AI policy adviser in 2025; joined OpenAI on 6 July 2026 to lead its Strategic Futures team.
Everyone should follow Ari and subscribe to his outstanding journal The New Atlantis, long one of the finest publications about technology and society. Quoting @AriSchulman If the question is “Should EAs rule us?,” the answer is an obvious hard no. But it seems to me that the chief question in front of us is, rather, “Is something momentous happening with AI?” The answer to that must be something other than mimetic rivalry with EA. Related

does anyone read op/ed sections anymore? When I was younger it seemed like a lot of the most interesting opinions were on the op-ed pages of newspapers. You had these really interesting opinion columnists like George Will, Thomas Friedman, and others that wrote very interesting columns back in the day (when I was a kid). but today it seems the op-ed pages are for ghosts and people over 70 years old. all the interesting opinion writers have moved to creating their own newsletter, writing on X, etc. I still read the "print" edition of the Wall Street Journal every day - cover to cover ... with… Related

Swedish essayist who writes Escaping Flatland, a newsletter of essays on relationships, thinking, writing and homeschooling.
I met up with @jacksondahl in Copenhagen and had a conversation about the value of lingering in confusion, using constraints to enable more creative work, how I journal, why love is like eating dogs, and many other things. You can find a recording below. Quoting @jacksondahl Henrik Karlsson returns to Dialectic. One of my 2025 highlights was meeting one of my favorite writers in Copenhagen and interviewing him on my fairly new podcast. It was a fan favorite. This conversation may have topped it. I talked to @phokarlsson about smashing mental models, navigating confusio… Related

Swedish essayist who writes Escaping Flatland, a newsletter of essays on relationships, thinking, writing and homeschooling.
There's a fairly common assumption that to know yourself better, you should attend to yourself more—journal, introspect, meditate on your patterns. And there's something to this. But also. The more you make yourself an object of attention, the more you reinforce the narrating self—the self that has problems, the self that needs fixing, the self with its story of development. I notice that when I, instead, sort of forget about myself and attend deeply to the outer world (when I unself as Murdoch would say) I actually see myself more clearly in a paradoxical way. If I engage fully with somethin… Related

Writer and consultant on technology, organizations and history; founded the blog Ribbonfarm and now writes the Contraptions newsletter.
Ribbonfarm (the Wordpress blog) is experimenting with a rough, notebook style in 2024, with shorter, more frequent journal style entries (2-3/week, sometimes more), so not all links will be tweeted. If you want to keep up, you should probably sign up for the newsletter digest. Related

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
