My day of meetings was in the frickin’ Bradbury Building, of which mere tourists only ever see the lobby. Literally everything, from the mail chute to the fire hoses, is a piece of industrial art.
Angel’s Flight train ride. Totally awesome although I pulverized a lightbulb onboard with my head.
Got a very cool tour of @nasajpl with my @berggrueninst and @theworldpost colleagues. I realized we’d covered the place for years at @popsci but I’d never been there. Best part: the list of craft in space at Mission Control. Top right? That’s Voyager. The “41”? That’s total years transmitting data. It’s been traveling away from us, transmitting from its 4kb processor, for 41 years.
The driver asked if I minded some music, and I’ve never minded less. Never stop being you, LA. #chickachickawahwah
Thank you to @oreillymedia for having me at #strata! The best thing about these appearances is all the amazing people that come out of the woodwork afterward. If you’re ever nervous about approaching a speaker, don’t be. Or at least don’t be if it’s me. Those connections are the most valuable part of giving a talk, especially as I desperately report out a book. #GlobalSpeaker #AIandEthics #PublicSpeaking #NewTechnologies #Disruption #Innovation #Change #InnovationsandInequality
The thrill and terror of realizing that this is going to be a much bigger crowd than I expected. #GlobalSpeaker #AIandEthics #PublicSpeaking #NewTechnologies #Disruption #Innovation #Change #InnovationsandInequality
