Just asked ChatGPT — via my app Bearly.AI (https://Bearly.AI) — to make a Coachella line-up to maximize revenue. Looks about right.

If Berkshire AGM was the “Coachella of Capitalism” instead of “Woodstock of Capitalism”

Had no idea: the outlines of the Twitter logo are actually made up of 15 overlaid circles.

In “Fight Club”, director David Fincher put a Starbucks cup in every scene as a commentary on consumerism.

Fincher says Starbucks read the script and was “ready to poke a little fun at themselves.”

One more good email: Jobs often emailed himself as a form of note-taking. In 2000, he sent this email to himself to outline “Apple’s reason for being”

Just asked ChatGPT — via my app Bearly.AI (https://Bearly.AI) — how it would renameHBO Max. I’m now 87% sure that the name change from “HBO Max” to “Max” was an AI decision.

I'm getting yelled at for incorrectly naming "Warner Bros Discovery" as "Time Warner". Apologies.

And also apologies for not having enough room to name drop Oz, Six Feet Under, Big Little Lies, Westworld (S1), True Detective, Entourage, Boardwalk Empire, Larry Sanders Show,… nitter.moomoo.me/i/web/status/164… (https://nitter.moomoo.me/i/web/status/1646219895745708032)

Getting a lot of pushback on my Lust folder. Domino’s and BK absolutely belongs there.

I may move Mcdonald’s to Greed based on its real estate holding, though. trungphan.substack.com/p/mcd… (https://trungphan.substack.com/p/mcdonalds-42b-real-estate-empire)

Deadline on how 1993 Super Mario botched the IP:

— Stripped out game elements (live action, different plot and the slogan was “This ain’t no game”)

— No involvement of Shigeru Miyamoto, the game architect

— Nintendo gave studio full creative control

The hard part of building Bearly.AI (https://Bearly.AI) is managing daily churn. Growth is choppy for startups and every day is different.

What’s the solution? Keep the long view and everything will be fine.
