There's this strange phenomenon I'm experiencing on Clubhouse where when big names that have big podcast audiences are talking to each other, it feels like GPT-3 generated conversations because I'm already so familiar with them.

I am a big fan of Chris Voss, and have devoured his book and his videos on the art of negotiation. So of course, when I got pinged into FBI Negotiation Tactics with CHRIS VOSS: a Master Class, I was thrilled, and hopped in. Neil Strauss was on stage too. Whee!

…and then… I got tremendously bored. It feels like listening to a podcast except the interviewer is a crowd that interrupts and ruins the experience for me by asking a question that if they knew even basic knowledge of the person, they wouldn’t ask.

Don’t get me wrong, there have been some moments, like when KimDotCom told a room of AI scientists that they’re wasting their time trying to figure it out, and that the entire human experience is happening in our own minds, we came here to have this experience, and when we die, we return to the Great Consciousness that created this universe that we are in.
