Dan Shipper (http://danshipper.com/)is an entrepreneur, writer, and the CEO and co-founder of Every (https://every.to/@danshipper), a daily newsletter on business, AI, and personal development read by nearly 75,000 founders, operators, and investors. He writes a weekly column at Every called Chain of Thought, where he covers topics like AI, tools for thought, and the psychology of work.I contacted Dan because he makes his living off the writing industry, yet instead of panicking, he took the LLM revolution head on, choosing to lead it instead of ducking.

Fascinating discussion about science at the end where we are both at the edge of our chairs and knowledge.If you like this, you may also be interested in my conversation with Tatjana (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KJ29Nslbl8) and Joel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmIHnZRY5zo) on creative writing and teaching AI.00:00:00 Intro.00:04:18 Dan's journey: software and writing.00:13:45 The writing industry and the business model of Every.00:19:45 How future works.
