I'm a techno-optimist.

I definitely believe that technology can and should serve other people.

Then where it's really not a technology problem, it's probably a broken markets problem.

Literally, why can't I have good Siri?

It's because Apple won't allow a market to exist there.

And we spend a lot of time in DC and in Sacramento right now trying to fight for that.

Like we need people to be able to start new things.

And then any of the seams that are broken are obvious.

It's like Siri is a perfect example.

It's like the smartest AI has been around since November of last year.

And Siri could be that smart, but is it that smart?

There's no market, like nobody created open access.

And so we're using the most beautiful devices in the world and they're horribly crippled and they're broken in a way that it should not be broken.

Tell me about big tech versus small tech.

Basically, Siri in a nutshell is exactly that.

We funded a company called Beeper.
