I saw a post on Reddit that said that β€œThe underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.” And I don’t think I’ve ever seen AI described so incisively.

Hot take: No professional sports team should ever receive a single cent of public taxpayer money to build a stadium. If a team can afford a billion-dollar roster, they can afford their own real estate. Why are we still subsidizing billionaires?

Fran Lebowitz on the billionaires: β€œEvery time someone suggests [a wealth tax] they say I’m moving. Go! They add nothing to New York. In the 19th century, those robber barons, they employed people. All this money magic employs no one. Goodbye, go. We don’t need you”
