Bonus: Vanilla Andreessen, Pygmy Marmosets, and Hi-Tech Delusions
The most vomit-inducing document of 2023 has to be the "Techno-Optimist Manifesto," written by a billionaire Silicon Valley venture capitalist. Join Jason, Rob, and Asher if you feel like sharing in some outrage and learning about a WAY better manifesto that just so happens to focus on the world's smallest monkeys.
Warning: This podcast occasionally uses spicy language.
