Key Notes
Jiang ties Thiel's framework to Mark Zuckerberg and Sam Altman, arguing that Altman's line about founders pursuing something closer to religion is effectively inherited from Thiel.
Jiang proposes Mark Zuckerberg as a contemporary elite case study because Zuckerberg refused large buyout offers while Facebook's rise and later expansion into AI and VR looked unnaturally smooth to him.
Jiang reads a Jacob Frank story about refusing buyout money and preferring power to wealth as a template that might have shaped Zuckerberg's posture toward Facebook acquisition offers.
Jiang says Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg were important public faces because civilian trust was needed to popularize military-origin technologies that would otherwise have been rejected.
