We've entered a new phase where progress in chatbots is starting to top out but progress in automating AI research is steadily improving. It's a mistake the confuse the two.

Benchmark charging endowments 3/30 to pump CCP wrappers - greedy, poor judgement and unpatriotic

Recently, I've been thinking a lot about human ideology and AGI - not just the different kinds of ideological approaches to AGI, but what it means for AGI ideology to exist at all.

AGI will be the first technology with a high P(Doom) not created in a secret government lab. This makes it uniquely susceptible to the influence of ideology, a dynamic with far-reaching consequences that few people are aware of.

After three years of building @VineVenturesLP, I wrote an essay on how VCs choose to operate and the subsequent impact on founders. TLDR: The vast majority of VC firms are severely "self-unoptimized."

Excited to update @VineVenturesLP LPs on what we have accomplished in H1 24.

Onward and upward!

2023 was an active, but rough, year for startup acquisitions.

In my latest post, I track the 50+ most notable strategic acquisitions for startups that took place in 2023 and the investors who won (and lost) from these deals.

Embarrassing for @StanfordGSB not to recognize the defense tech club. Business schools are full of people grandstanding about “demanding more from capitalism.” Then you look them up on LinkedIn and they work for McKinsey. Thank you for all that you do!! 🙄

Artificial Intelligence is a Threat to Founders

I'm finally launching my Substack "Posts in the Shell," which aspires to be as mind-blowing as the sci-fi film it's named after. Check out my latest post and subscribe if you like it!

or simply summon @CodiumAI-Agent on any GitHub public PR 🤯

let's dive into what sets ⁠pr-agent apart:

[Itamar Friedman @itamar_mar]

Old Coder Guy uses and teases @CodiumAI to test its code logic 🤣

He also makes fun of me, but I'm totally fine with that 😀

Writing tests could be a frustrating task, so pouring in some fun and artificial intelligence is the way to go!

Good job!

[Isaac Hasson @isaachasson]

We are so proud to back @itamar_mar, who noticed a huge problem in the dearth of tools to check code logic and is building Codium to build these tests automatically. Beta just dropped 🚀

Super stoked for the launch of https://t.co/XYbPrtue2l

Best example of an opinionated UX for a codegen problem I've seen yet

Manually writing unit tests is 2022 behavior

[Itamar Friedman @itamar_mar]

Super excited to announce that we’ve just launched @CodiumAI, the product and company, and raised $11M seed round 🚀🚀

CodiumAI generates meaningful tests for busy devs.
