Noah Smith discusses the anthropological history of San Francisco's tech culture, tracing its evolution from early 2000s "techno-hippies" to big tech corporate strivers, and evaluates how GDP metrics fail to capture technological shifts. He also breaks down the rise of effective altruism, rationalism, and why SF remains the undisputed cluster for the AI boom. Check out our sponsor Lovable: https://lovable.dev.
