AI continues to make unbelievable advances in healthcare.
Researchers have just created a brain implant that decodes thoughts into synthesized speech allowing paralyzed patients to communicate through a digital avatar.
This is incredible:
-The implant converts brain signals into text at nearly 80 words per minute, focusing on phonemes vs. whole words to enhance speed.
-The AI generates realistic vocals (mirroring a patient’s pre-injury voice) and facial animations that aim to enable more natural communication.
-The breakthrough brings the tech closer to real-world use, with the next step being a wireless model that doesn’t require a physical connection to the interface.
Restoring communication for those with paralysis is an innovation that would change countless lives.
While it sounds crazy, mind-reading implants seem to be inching closer to reality.
3. Build out your offer
I like using Alex Hormozi's value equation:
• An outcome
• Times likelihood
• Divided by time delay
• Multiplied by effort & sacrifice
This gives a crystal clear image of your offer:
We report a model that can go from natural language instructions, to robot actions, to synthesized molecule with an LLM. We synthesized catalysts, a novel dye, and insect repellent from 1-2 sentence instructions. This has been a seemingly unreachable goal for years! 1/3
This is how we are in the Post App World.
Why I said this is part of the Great Unwinding Of The Silicon Valley.
You will not care about the OS, the app or even the device.
There will just be AI.

I have helped run an AI-based entrepreneurship program for years, written papers on the econ of AI, and follow the field quite closely. Nonetheless, I am *shocked* by how good OpenAI's new chat (https://t.co/6PbtqZUziI) is. E.g., you can no longer give take-home exams/homework.

I am fully focused on Real Estate right now, but if I had more bandwidth, I would do this:🧵👇
@FrediVosberg@arvidkahl Agreed! The upfront investment in building an audience is big!
That said, entrepreneurs must put effort into marketing anyway, and it puts that time upfront instead of waiting.
But, some founders w/ a marketing budget don't want to put in the time and would rather pay.
@FrediVosberg@arvidkahl I've found it useful for digital entrepreneurs (SAAS, or content-creators) and lifestyle e-commerce entrepreneurs (Ex: An influencer who wants to sell unique soap).
I've also found it useful for entrepreneurs that are looking for their next thing after an acquisition.
