They want to accept praise and accolades for the work they’ve done, but don’t want to accept the responsibility of creating the very thing they are now criticizing. It is the same thing. You have to own it.

You see it with people who leave Facebook to make a new social networking site. They tell you this time it will be different.

That this time, they’re actually working for good. That begs the question: were they not working for good before?

Right now, I see that with Humane. At least from Imran and Ken, they love to flout their inventions at Apple, but in the same breath, they criticize it for being a big, clunky behemoth that doesn’t help you do what you want anymore.

But how did we get here? How did that happen? Did they not... at least *assist* making it into that behemoth?

You never hear it. You never hear them say they were wrong, that they aided in making something that was ultimately unhelpful or even dangerous.

You only hear how they did good things but the rest of it is bad.

Humane still hasn’t launched anything but they continue a trend of having self-righteous founders.

Only they can save us from the problems they created!
