I like what you said, "If they don’t know, they make something up." Sounds familiar!
The MOOC was FREE, your newsletter is FREE, the AI chatbots are FREE. That's why 8,000 people registered. Compare this to a university, where 15 people might attend a class for $20/hour.
This illustrates a fundamental flaw in our old-school (pre-internet) information systems, where professional news (and education) is expensive and therefore reaches a small audience. Garbage news is shocking and free, and reaches everybody (i.e. TikTok).
Professional news has to be free and compelling to compete with the garbage.

Thanks for the invite, Jim. Looking forward to it! But I'm wondering how the Daily Mail would headline a story about our conversation???
Now, that's impressive!
