I find the story you’re too close to see. Narrative Strategy for Technology Companies Through 5 Shifts, Now AI. Mentor @founding Silicon Valley #AI Program 2026
Bloat kills speed.
#AI moves too fast for traditional corporate structures.
Extremely small, highly technical teams with zero middle management can pivot overnight when a new model architecture drops—while a massive enterprise is still trying to schedule a meeting about it.
This—-> “AI is becoming an LLM OS. The model is the operating system, and a whole ecosystem of apps gets built on top, just like the early iPhone era.”
The winner is the one the developers decide to build on.
Andrej Karpathy, OpenAI co-founder, just explained why most AI advice has a shelf life of about one model update.
Most of what AI twitter sells you breaks the moment the model changes.
The fundamentals don't.
AI is becoming an LLM OS. The model is the operating system, and a whole ecosystem of apps gets built on top, just like the early iPhone era.
Scale isn't the moat. Data quality, infrastructure and algorithm efficiency decide who wins.
Plus the insider part: how Elon actually runs teams. Small, technical, no middle management.

@karpathy Are humans actually paying attention to anything generated by AI, though?
What’s the point of all this AI-generated drivel?
To impress other AIs?
Or are you actually trying to reach a customer?
@Jeyyderh It culminated yesterday in a “conversation” with an AI “recruiter.”
And I thought:
“How much longer am I going to waste time communicating with bots 🤖 before I actually break through to an actual live human being?
Or call center in India.
An actual decision maker?
I just wasted 3 months of my life sending AI generated resumes to get screened by AI ATS systems and talking to AI bots and fake AI recruiters.
Completely ridiculous.
Totally a waste of human energy.
The hiring and recruitment process is totally broken.
You should go to more dinner parties.
This might be the most important career advice I share all year.
The U.S. Surgeon General declared loneliness a public health epidemic. Half of all American adults report feeling lonely. Loneliness carries the same health risk as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
And Americans spend about 20 minutes a day with friends in person. Two decades ago, it was 60 minutes.
For people ages 15-24, time spent with friends dropped 70%.
We're the most connected generation in history. And the loneliest.
I think about this through the regret minimization framework.
When you're older, looking back at your life, you're not going to regret going to that dinner party on a Tuesday night.
Or hosting friends at your apartment.
You're not going to regret showing up to that event when you were tired.
You're going to regret the nights you stayed home scrolling your phone.
Host a dinner party this month.
Say yes to that event you were going to skip. Invite someone you admire to coffee.
Go to that conference.
Stop optimizing your calendar and start filling it with people.
And go to more dinner parties.
P.S. I host a dinner party for founders/CEOs every month. Occasionally I invite non-founders too. Dm me!

Wow, that’s so weird. I just got a call from an AI recruiter.
It was completely #AI and it was like talking to a very sharp intelligent recruiter. It’s called @TalentPluto.
Never before has so much power been available to so many people, so inexpensively.
The difference between AI LLMs and PCs is ... AI can be used on a Smartphone. And BILLIONS of people have smartphones now.

@socialgreenmh The next generation of startups are focused on building more energy efficient chips for the data centers. Keep in mind that the smartphone in your pocket has the power of what used to be a ROOM of computers. Now it runs on a tiny battery that can be solar charged.
Everything made from Silicon will get cheaper and more efficient over time. It's Moore's Law.
That's why I am not too worried about AI and data centers.
I think it's only a matter of time that AI solves the problems created by AI.
