    AI S2 E2: Launching FIG, COMPUTE/COMPETE, Hillary's untitled startup project, new Cities Decoded contributors, and much more.

    I’m so excited to announce that our very own Magan Chin has launched her app, FIG: an AI-powered career platform. As we celebrate Magan’s app launch, we also discuss what Hill, Austin, and I have been up to: * Austin — COMPUTE/COMPETE (geopolitical AI) * Hill — untitled education startup (critical thinking) * Me — Cities Decoded (AI from the perspective of city changemakers) Also, I was happy to have all three of my co-hosts on Cities Decoded. Read our thoughts on the Anthropic super bowl ads aimed at ChatGPT’s new ads model here. See you in a few weeks for our next builders update! 👋 Get full access to Mindful Notions by Sam H Li at samhli.substack.com/subscribe

  8. AI S2 ep 1: We wrote a manifesto. Now what?

    AI S2 ep 1: We wrote a manifesto. Now what?

    Why a manifesto Sam: “Why do we feel the need for a manifesto? It allows us to really put into words this feeling…which is a feeling of shame. That feeling that you did everything right and then you suddenly can’t get anything. You can’t get any job.” The “Bermuda Triangle Problem” Magan: “I did not come up with this concept. Simon Ventura wrote a book about it. We see some of the most high achieving peers of ours follow the same pathway…consulting, banking, big tech, and law. This video got over a million views. It was kind of crazy how much this story resonated.” Projects / platforms LAUNCH website Stats & reporting * NBC News: “Americans no longer see four-year college degrees as worth the cost” * Inside Higher Ed: “Survey: When Should College Students Use AI? They’re Not Sure” * Cleveland Fed: “Are Young College Graduates Losing Their Edge in the Job Market?” * Axios: “Behind the Curtain: A white-collar bloodbath” * WEF: “More and more jobs can be done from anywhere …” * New York Times: “Employers Are Buried in A.I.-Generated Résumés” * Rolling Stone: “ ‘I Love LA’ Creator Rachel Sennott Is Carrying the Flag for Gen Z” Get full access to Mindful Notions by Sam H Li at samhli.substack.com/subscribe
