Title: I&#x27;m in my mid-40s. For the last 25 years, I can pretty much predict what&#x27;s going to happen in the next few years. If I made a mistake, it&#x27;s often because I was over-optimistic about my predictions. 
e.g. ARM CPU in 2000; Smartphones in 2001 (Microsoft&#x27;s Compact Framework 1.0); etc.<p>What happened with GPT-4 shocked me so deeply that, yesterday morning, I caught myself forgetting to give way at a busy intersection. (I&#x27;ve never received any tickets in my life)<p>This afternoon, I finally had some alone time. So I went into the garden and work on my feelings.<p>Here is a list of the emotions that are swelling up in me, (using the Junto Emotional Chart)<p>Awe-struck (for obvious reasons)
Astounded<p>Triumphant (the sci-fi vision has finally come true in our lifetime)<p>Perplexed (wow, how comes it&#x27;s coming at us so fast!)<p>Anxious (of the cascading effect on society, geopolitics and our business).<p>There are plenty of texts written about either the looming doom or the ultimate freedom of human capital. I am not interested in any of those abstract discussions.<p>What I do want to hear are<p>1. How are YOU feeling? 
2. Any particular changes you&#x27;ve made to your product or startup? 
3. How about your life? 
4. If you have any child&#x2F;children, your family or how you educate them?<p>Thanks!
