How will AI impact the economy? Can we defend against misuse? What policies would mitigate the risks of AI? Thrilled to share that @random_walker and I are writing another book to tackle these questions! Today, we release a paper laying out our argument: AI as Normal Technology.

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Opens with a question, so the reader starts answering before they have decided to read.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.

The mechanics

Hook: Opens with a question
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal, energetic
Written for: People building with AI
