“There’s a really strong and growing subculture of people, especially in my generation—Gen Z—who grew up listening to stories of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, entrepreneurs who dedicated their lives to building life-changing companies,” says Will Gao, the company’s head of growth. “Kobe Bryant dedicated all his waking hours to basketball, and I don’t think there’s a lot of people saying that Kobe Bryant shouldn’t have worked as hard as he did.”
No, but I’m calling the Kobe Bryant tale absolutely bullshit. Bryant went to his practice facility in El Segundo and spent anywhere from between 45 minutes to 3 hours per day during the basketball season playing basketball, which included watching game videos, weight conditioning, and tossing basketballs during game day shoot around sessions. Bryant had a wife and four daughters, and he spent a number of day hours being a husband and a parent.
Some Gen Zs are either super gullible, or in Will Gao’s case, super manipulative.
Just one ChatGPT search about something as simple as the weather consumes vast energy, 10 times more than a Google search.
I wonder if that’s still true, with all the AI summary crap in Google now.
I’m glad to see the Ministry’s continuing its tradition of recruiting the brightest and best.
