a16z made this handy list of the top 50 AI Gen AI web products: https://t.co/wxI5MVEw4o
We checked, and turns out that 82% use @Stripe.
We've been building a bunch of functionality that's useful for AI products, including usage-based billing (https://t.co/AjNmBJ7wIz) to handle inference costs, Link (https://t.co/oEgjeF4Cq8) for higher-converting checkouts, and support for a lot more local payment methods (since these products are typically global from day one). Stripe Billing has also seen a raft of improvements.
More to come.
@elonmusk Freedom of speech is only left in the French Olympics scenario, but such freedom is frustrating.... we are in some fucking matrix, the world can't be like this in reality....
We are walking along the road that was built for us and we ourselves are completing the continuation, but the point is that this global construction must meet the needs for the improvement of humanity, and not in driving cattle across the field to trample a new path
Today’s overturning of the decades-old Chevron doctrine, under which courts were compelled to defer to agency interpretations of ambiguous statutes, is the most significant court case for technology policy in the US in years. The impact, especially on frontier tech industries like AI, biotech, crypto, clean energy, and beyond, can’t be overstated.
The doctrine was originally rooted in the idea that agencies are experts in their arenas, possessing deep subject matter knowledge of the industries they regulate. This gave extraordinary power to administrative agencies, which in the 40 years since Chevron have grown meaningfully. Unelected agency staff became de facto policy makers, superseding the role of Congress.
Meanwhile, the pace of innovation has naturally caused agencies to become less “expert” with respect to technology, since over the past few decades regulation has largely been done through agency interpretation of broad authorizing statutes—often written long before the technology even existed.
What the Court decided in today’s case is essentially that Congress needs to be more specific and precise, or it’ll be up to the courts instead of the agencies to interpret what Congress meant.
It’s more important than ever for both parties to focus on electing leaders who understand how important frontier tech is to the future of this country and have an affirmative, specific vision for how to legislate.
New podcast episode just dropped!
This episode is all about pricing strategy.
We dive into insights from traditional and web2 businesses and apply them — plus brand new approaches — to startups using crypto and blockchains.
Topics of discussion include the importance of understanding consumer psychology, how to navigate pivots and avoid common mistakes, and what can be learned from real-world case studies, including Tesla, Nvidia, and others.
Our experts include a16z crypto's @meigga, head of our go-to-market team; research partner and Harvard Business School professor of economics @skominers; and tech veteran and head of our CSX startup accelerator @jasonrosenthal — the three of whom combine their different expertise around the theme of this episode to help you master pricing strategy.
