Ethan Mollick had a good argument ages ago (like two years back) that you knew AGI progress was stalling once the companies started caring about design, releasing stuff in the shape of products, etc. by that theory Sora looks like a transition point.

In olden times Rep. Doe gets incoming feedback from local news or town halls. But no local news and it seems like members of both parties fear town halls. So probably a narrower slice of politicians are getting real-time feedback in the way MTG or, say, AOC are.

Being mediagenic means that, besides broadcasting information out, you also get more information coming back in (ie what journos are asking you about, how people feel about stories featuring you etc.) whereas Rep Joe Doe (R-Mo.) doesn’t get that feedback.

Well, first trump admin they used opinions + news. They switched to sports + other stuff + news during Biden. But news always an element. The one issue is that “I read the news in the New York Times” is a self-branding exercise in a way it isn’t for virtually every other news org.

Liz Pelt’s MOOD MACHINE (and Steve Levy’s Facebook history) both have evidence that there’s a bit of a carcinizaton effect here. My interpretation is simply that short videos are the final boss of addictive media.
