Dialectic with Jackson Dahl

I interviewed Alex Danco (@stimps) about the magical enzyme that catalyzes creativity in silicon valley and beyond — gifts. 

Alex is a product leader at Shopify and one of the most generative writers at the intersection of markets, technology, business, and culture.

I've read Alex for nearly 10 years as he's covered how VC and startups impact each other, what is happening as we move from a world of scarcity to abundance, how culture shapes and is shaped by tech and business, and more.

We cover:
- why generosity allows us to solve the coordination problems needed to innovate

- VC's as priests and founders as kings, endowed with the power to tell stories about the future

- why gifts are the opposite of slop

- how originality with AI tools may resemble a guitarist finding her or his sound

- why podcasts are dominant and will continue to be

- why Sam Altman can't copy Phish

- how human beings fundamentally change when they're in a crowd

- why you should host more dinner parties
