@interesting_aIl yep, and now the chinese companies are going closed source. Doubao (bytedance) and Qwen (Alibaba), GLM (https://t.co/Ah2IFoiLAg) have been distilling mythos to try and get to parity. They're now going closed source and offering it to drive revenue.

For @every, our CTO @dpup argues that founders need to understand the implicit assumptions underneath their AI strategy.

This 4-axis framework will help you move toward the specific futures your company is betting on, from the cost of intelligence, to model self-sufficiency, to platform lock-in and regulation.

@lmushin @USMNT False equivalence. I prefer to win/lose with no * in the record.

After 250 years from monarchy and revolution, through shackles and liberation, war and peace, boom and bust, MAGA and DSA to whatever comes next - I hope stadiums full of Americans will always bring their collective memories together, in community, and sing. Happy 4th. Go USA!

Data that can move freely will power the next wave of AI and @SHUBH17_ and the team at Integral are making this possible without compromise on privacy compliance, ownership or data integrity.

Proud @thegp partnered with Shubh early and trusted him to build his best company

[Shubh Sinha @SHUBH17_]

🎉I’m excited to announce our $18M Series A, with participation from @VenrexVC, @thegp , @VirtueVC , @caffeinatedcap , @arrayvc, @GreatPointVC , @LiveRamp, @haystackvc, @CapitalAlso, @LifeXvc , Circle & Co, and WS Investments.

The first generation of AI was built on public, human-curated data. The next will be built on real-world data. The datasets carrying real human behavior are what now separate one AI system from another. AI companies want them. The companies that hold them want to put them to work. The barrier has always been risk.

We solved that risk in healthcare, one of the most regulated data environments there is. Today we bring it to the rest of the economy.

[Phin Barnes @phineasb]

Investors need to get closer to the metal - @thegp we do this by having some of the best company builders on our team. @dpup is a proof point and he shapes my thinking every day. (Thanks to @danshipper and the team @every for shaping this piece and sharing)

[The General Partnership ("TheGP") @thegp]

Every AI strategy is a set of bets.

Our engineering + investment teams built a framework to help founders understand the implicit assumptions underneath their AI strategy, from the cost of intelligence to model self-sufficiency, platform lock-in, and regulation.

Our CTO @dpup formalized that framework for @every:

@reidhoffman x @johnolilly in the latest General Podcast from @thegp

[The General Partnership ("TheGP") @thegp]

NEW: Episode 10 of The General Podcast.

@reidhoffman x @johnolilly on why AI won’t replace your network.

Reid and John first met through a one-line intro, then started meeting for breakfast at Hobee’s with ongoing lists of ideas, companies, people, and questions to trade. Before @LinkedIn, @GreylockVC, @mozilla and now @manas_co, they were rifling through stacks of business cards together, comparing and sharing their respective networks.

More than 20 years later, they recorded this episode and ended it the same way they started...with a longer list of things still left to talk about.

This conversation is about company-building, AI, why the best relationships only compound, and a look behind the curtain at how Silicon Valley actually runs—through networks.

Tune in 🎧👇
