AI ideas are easy. Implementation is hard.
That's why we launched the Forward Deployment Engineer (FDE) Fellowship: to help portfolio companies turn promising AI concepts into real-world systems and workflows.
Excited to welcome Jainam Patel as our first fellow. Read more: https://t.co/EvcmIfagRQ
The physical world is messy. Edge cases pile up fast. At some point, teams can’t debug failures robot-by-robot anymore.
@pasha_aqil on why reliability infrastructure may become foundational to the Physical AI stack: https://t.co/oy0WHJirH8
Identity security is breaking at runtime.
We still optimize for provisioning.
But risk shows up during execution.
In the last two weeks:
@Cisco acquired @AstrixSecurity@silverfort acquired @fabrix
That’s not a coincidence.
Access isn’t a decision. It’s a sequence.
Most AI tools help engineers write code faster.
Blitzy helps enterprises finish what they start.
$200M round at a $1.4B valuation.
Reverse-engineers the codebase. Orchestrates thousands of agents. Ships months of work in weeks.

Most agent failures don’t look like failures.
They look reasonable. Slightly off. Hard to trace.
That’s the gap observability needs to solve.
@saayanath and @pasha_aqil break it down: https://t.co/XailqoSSfD
Ping pong in Toronto. Coffee at RSA. Whisky in Chicago.
In between:
• @Standard_Kernel on idle AI compute
• @abovesec on behavioral risk
• @OneRSAC takeaways from CISOs
• @cabledottech joins @synctera
Catch up: https://t.co/TEIWcJdaOC
We’ve overbuilt for intruders and underbuilt for insiders.
Nearly 60% of breaches involve the human element.
@abovesec is built for what happens after access is granted.

RSA didn’t start on Monday.
Breaches hit before day one. By the time CISOs showed up, the themes were already real.

Above Security emerges from stealth with $50M to tackle insider risk in the age of AI agents.
Proud to participate alongside Ballistic, Merlin, Norwest, and QP Ventures.
Excited for what Aviv, Amir, and team are building.

The next wave of AI winners won’t be model companies.
They’ll be the ones that make enterprises actually change.
@TarunMGupta & @Will share where they’re looking 👇https://t.co/ly22WfuMaY
We have a utilization problem.
GPUs are running <30% capacity.
@Standard_Kernel (@anneouyang + @ChrisRinard ) unlocks up to 4x performance.
Why we invested: https://t.co/YqovYkPhaO
At RSA, one thing is clear: security is lagging how systems actually run.
@saayanath and @pasha_aqil share 5 shifts we’re seeing from non-binary endpoints to agent security.
We’re looking for builders in this space:

AI progress increasingly depends on how efficiently workloads run on hardware.
@Standard_Kernel is tackling this challenge at the kernel level, unlocking more performance from modern GPUs.
We're proud to lead their seed with @generalcatalyst, @CoreWeave, @felicis, & @ericsson
@anneouyang@Standard_Kernel We're proud to lead the $20M seed in @Standard_Kernel!
The team brings a rare combination of technical depth and firsthand experience with the problem they’re solving. That kind of founder–problem fit is hard to find.
Excited to partner with you from the start.
Big congrats to the @prompt_security team on their acquisition by @SentinelOne .
From our first chat at Black Hat last year, @ItakGol and Lior had a clear vision: secure the AI era.
Grateful to back this team early, led by @zsparta at Jump.
Onward!
