Scoble's Unaligned Newsletter: As AI Optimizes Everything, Human Messiness May Win
Scobleizer · x · 2026-11-04
Robert Scoble and Irena Cronin's free newsletter Unaligned argues that as AI makes consistency, optimization, and routine work trivially automatable, distinctly human qualities become more valuable.
- Judgment, intuition, creativity, emotion, and knowing when to challenge the machine may be the strongest advantages humans bring to an AI-driven workplace
- Being "messy" could be a winning trait in a world where AI optimizes everything
Past issues cover AI memory lock-in, advertising to AIs, agents being rejected by the internet, the machine economy, and spatial computing meets physical AI.
