Just found out there are only TWO copies of this limited edition zine I made with pal @adehogan of our last trip to Seoul. It was a limited edition of 100 so thanks to the 98 people who bough it!

I am busy working on the first MundoMendo.com book, handling all aspects of the process from writing and drawing to design and printing but it’s the support of the MundoMendo members what made this possible.
Bunkobon sized & printed in Japan. The cover is just a mockup. Will change.

The ambition of Substack to become another social network when social networks are dying is truly puzzling.

Ah. The frame around it distracted me. It’s a feature on the latest Mood app version. You’re too professional for apps I guess. I like the app but I am an amateur.

Beautiful, Alfie!
Did you also jump in the Mood app train? I’m loving it.

Something very strange is going on
There is a seemingly coordinated effort to FLIP FLOP on Al. All of the execs who were hyping Al to death just a few weeks ago are now claiming that Al is a bubble, that AGI is nowhere near, and that Al will have a much smaller impact than anticipated.
> Altman called it a bubble
> Eric Schmidt said that AGI is basically bullshit
> Matt Garman (AWS CEO) downplayed its impact
WHY the sudden narrative switch?
WHO gave the orders?
I swear, it's like they're all part of some cult. They all embrace the same talking points all at once, and abandon them all at once.

I dreamt we were living in a beautiful barter society where money didn’t really exist and the only rich people were the truly clever ones. What a dream.

La pena y vergüenza que me da que desde hace tanto tiempo tengamos a ese atajo de incompetentes al timón.
