@danielgross Im working on a project for autonomous maintenance for AI compute. Using power and current sensors to drive efficiency (maximizing tokens per watt) and coolant analysis to detect early hardware degradation(pumps, fouling, etc).
2025 recap:
>started @gru_space at 21
>raised from the people who backed SpaceX, Anduril, and more
>got into YC, youngest space solo founder
>graduated year early from Berkeley EECS
>published at the world’s largest space conf
>moved into my first office & dream hardware lab
>building my life’s work
2026:
>coming soon
@nickmihailou If you’re dropping out for the money, agreed. If you’re leaving cause you believe in the project and you got the early signal then I think that’s great(what I did). Lots of early founders get sucked into the former though and the wrong signals.
your data system is behind.
if you’re still relying on LinkedIn updates like “stealth startup” to spot talent, you’re already too late.
we’ve built the most powerful tool in private markets to spot people and patterns others can’t.
For any Canadian who’s applying for their O1 or received their petition approval. Happy to chat through with you, got some good learnings that would of definitely saved me some stress and headache the first go round!
