The Daily Loop #172
3 quotes, 2 short form tweets, 1 long form read and 1 piece of advice from me. Consume 2 minutes of information to help you advance your knowledge in different fields.
The Daily Loop newsletter focuses on information that can be consumed in 2 minutes every day by linking to posts across the internet, formatted in a way that is easy for anyone to navigate. In a 3-2-1-1 design (quotes, short-form content, long-form content and advice).
The goal is for as many people to read this daily and inspire them to think differently about certain things. It will primarily be around topics and industries I am interested in such as: startups, ai, success, innovation, change, crypto, nfts, etc.

“Funny how fast new things normalise to the brain. This stuff was magic 6 months ago.”
I found this really interesting because I completely agree. Humans get used to such things very quickly. I’m sure there is a deep reason behind this.

Right now I am surprised someone hasn’t made a website that auto-uses such tools (Midjourney doesn’t have an API yet so will have to use StableDiffusion) and creates comics/films for others. Multi-million dollar idea here.
Unrelated, I saw someone call out the Spiderman film team for using AI in production recently. They ended up getting completely ratioed by other artists explaining how AI is good when it helps make artists’ lives easier. I think this is what a lot of people fail to realise.
1 piece of advice from me
the best and most simple usecase for crypto is decentralised p2p currency trading without middlemen
for nfts it's p2p trading of digital items (collectibles, art, etc.) with transparent provenance
don’t overcomplicate things
nfts (the tech) wont go away for that reason alone
