Unleashing Radical Creativity: Astro Teller in conversation with Gideon Lichfield at EmTech 2020

From the moment new Xers step inside the Factory, they’re asked to behave in hard, counter-intuitive ways - to embrace uncertainty, surf chaos, and resist the gravitational pull of the ordinary. In this conversation, Captain of Moonshots Astro Teller brings MIT Tech Review’s Gideon Lichfield through his hypothetical first day at X - sharing what we’ve learned over the last decade about creating a culture of innovation where serendipity and radical creativity are the norm.

Astor's enthusiasm and excitement are contagious :D

Paintballs and lasers? Why not just use one of those cattle bolt guns like from No Country for Old Men to punch weeds into the dirt? It's quick and doesn't leave behind any foreign debris. The FarmBot project has been doing something similar for a while now.

Very interesting! Too bad Gideon didn't synchronize with Astro's enthusiasm about what he was talking about
