About Me
I've always loved the feeling of opening the mailbox and finding the latest issue of a magazine you've subscribed to for years. Growing up, my favorites were ESPN The Magazine and Architectural Digest. These days, we're constantly sharing videos, photos, and opinions - so why not our own magazines? Qorrum is a platform where anyone can create and share their own monthly magazine, and explore ones made by others. Mine will usually center on cumulative knowledge, major tech developments, and general learnings - though each issue will take a slightly different shape!

It reviews thousands of articles on progress in the world using Al agents to read, classify, and curate. I’ve been checking it almost everyday and it’s fantastic. Below are a few stories I might’ve missed if not for Clarion!

“It seems a common experience in the lives of people with high agency is that they, at some point, metaphorically, lean against a wall and discover that there is a hidden door. they get into the habit of testing if walls are actually doors, and the more they do so, the more examples of hidden doors they find, and the more inclined they are to look for them.” (Henrik Karlsson)

This month I noticed a number of posts/newsletters/articles on China, in particular on how China was innovating technically to an extent not fully appreciated (or always matched) in the US. Below are a few snapshots from what I came across this month.
