Mark Zuckerberg

Just because you can build a machine that is better than a person at something doesn't mean that it is going to have the ability to learn new domains or connect different types of information or context to do superhuman things. This is critically important to appreciate.

There are a few other things that I built when I was at Harvard that were kind of smaller versions of Facebook.
Mark Zuckerberg

When you want to change things, you can't please everyone. If you do please everyone, you aren't making enough progress.
Mark Zuckerberg
Image
If you actually do something you love it's a lot easier and takes on a lot more purpose.
