#13> A small number of cities, starting with San Francisco, Paris, London, and New York, are where almost everyone working and thinking about artificial intelligence is based. Go to these cities, or the closest approximation of them available to you, not just to work on these problems but to understand what possibilities may come your way.

#14I am now in my mid 30’s but moving to a second tier city may be one of the best life choices. I have a small sample but all my New York and SF friends are still single, living in apartments, and grinding at great innovative companies. My friends in Seattle, Austin, Chicago, seem to have much chiller more fulfilling lives where they have families, real estate, weird funky interests and hobbies.

#15Weird advice, How does anyone know what job you'd learn more at? Anyways, when I was a young person the only requirement I had for my first job was would they be willing to hire me.

Yeah, one has to be from New York to claim Seattle, Austin, Chicago are second tier cities and thus confirming popular stereotypes about New Yorkers.

I agree with this... having lived in all of the major cities in the US and worked in "tech" /research- I find places like Pittsburgh, or Portland(Maine), to be much much more inspiring and to contain more interesting people. The major hubs having become monocultural sycophantic symbols of extreme capitalism and greed, advancing only the science of advertising. 12 years in NYC now and jeez, people here are just boring…
As someone who was born, raised and still living here, I concur.
> 12 years in NYC now and jeez, people here are just boring AF.
I don't feel this is true unless you only visit popular, gentrified areas or never leave Manhattan which is the impression most transplants give me. These people have unintentionally driven out native NYC culture in favor of the fake septic realities peddled on Instagram. There are still interesting people and places all over NYC in neighborhoods you probably never set foot in. Go explore.
