Don't Wait For The Future, Go To It

What a fun episode of The Greatness Machine with one of my favorite people in the world, Daniel Murphy!?

In this episode, Daniel and I talked about:

?? What it was like growing up in his mother's Midwest comedy club, and some of the stars he got to meet before they made it big

?? How he got started as an advertising executive, as well as his revelation as to the direction the advertising world is headed

?? Daniel's newest exciting AI venture

?? And so much more…

Quotes:

"...my mother had been doing a lot of hospice work and she needed to brighten her life up and got into the comedy business. She's run The Funny Bone in Omaha, Nebraska for over 30 years now. It's a hell of a business to grow up in, just seeing stars before they became what we all know of them."

"I had more variance, more awards, more this, and more that, all this kind of stuff in three years than people have over a career, but it was at the expense of 70 hour work weeks, and just a really rough go of it."

"...we're here to talk about values, one of my values is, don't wait for the future, you've got to go to it."

"...it's been interesting because I watched the camaraderie change in comedy because the business model shifted."

"...the beauty part of being on the inside at a place like Google is you don't guess where the future is going because you're building it."

"...magic happens when computers can program themselves at computer speed."

"So we are all living in our own Truman Show right now, and it's having horrible consequences for society."
