He discusses his shift toward content creation and entrepreneurship, which includes establishing a local AI community in Milan and dissecting YC startup courses. His goal is to build the European equivalent of Silicon Valley 101. Steven’s brands include Learn by doing with Steven (focusing on tutorials) and his podcast, Steven Data Talk (centered on data).Innovation Culture: Europe vs. Silicon Valley: Steven describes Europe as an "AI development low ground" due to its conservative environment and complex legal landscape, noting the challenges posed by regulations like GDPR and the new AI Act. However, he maintains that pursuing ambitious goals in such a difficult environment is more meaningful. In contrast, Steven characterizes Silicon Valley's fierce competition not as a consensus-driven spiral, but as an "involuting existence" (卷存感)—a high-pressure race for media attention (e.g., TechCrunch), early top VC funding, and status.The Role of Podcasting: Steven views podcasting as a lifelong endeavor and the best medium for facilitating deep, meaningful conversations and finding "fellow travelers".This content has been summarized from the original Chinese version using NotebookLM.
