👾 “Reddit vs AI” — REPLAY: Our Interview with Reddit CEO Steve Huffman
About this episode
Reddit… it’s the most important company in social media right now, because it’s the most different. It’s the 5th most visited website in America, the internet’s front page, and the most valuable source of content to train artificial intelligence (Sam Altman pays *them*). They’ve got a partnership with OpenAI… yet the content is anti-AI. And co-founder / CEO Steve Huffman runs the most real company in tech right now… and he's a classically-trained ballroom dancer.
In this interview episode, you’ll hear…
- How ballroom dancing is like running a company.
- The invention of the upvote/downvote.
- Reddit’s version of judicial, legislative, and executive branch.
- How the CEO of reddit decides when to ban an account.
- How AI models train by reading reddit.
- Should Reddit rebrand to “Real”?
