A great episode from Dwarkesh, I’m not even fully through it yet and I’ve already learned so much about how we humans have gotten to today. I especially liked this clip about how cultural knowledge was passed between generations and how it relates to entrepreneurship. Trying to make a product that iterates on something that is already ‘pretty good’ might actually end up making it worse. Also experimenting can lead to mistakes which might be more helpful in creating something novel.
