Very excited for the iOS 25 launch!

talked to a YC founder who asked Sam Altman straight up "will OpenAI compete in my space / kill my startup"⁣
⁣
the answer: behavioral health requires knowing if users are actually improving. OpenAI doesn't have that data, the wrapper startups do. v bullish for consumer AI

Just booked my flight to SF to officially kick off our seed fundraise.

Here's a lil sneak peak on our July Metrics 👀

Absolutely monster month. And August is going to be just as big if not bigger.

@hubermanlab @UltraRunner26 Curious what the issues are with long term Ashwagandha? I’ve been taking this for a few years now and it seems it has quite a potent dose 😅 https://t.co/A8wGiLdyGJ

@jonnym1ller Ooh yes very interested!

[Ben Easton @The_Beaston]

@bryan_johnson Great advice! @bryan_johnson Curious if you've tried out https://t.co/BYpCE6dzuD? It seems interesting, but wondering how effective it actually is

the way of kings by brandon sanderson, it's a really good book and there's a new one in the series out and it's great if u have a long flight during the holidays

@elonmusk @elonmusk we’d love to help automate the administrative work around prior auths using LLMs. Could save billions! Let me know if someone at @DOGE wants to chat about it 😁

[Ben Easton @The_Beaston]

@ankurnagpal Yes please!

Life update #3: I’ve quit my job (again) to go create my own startup 🚀

With the Rupa acquisition I walked away with a life changing sum of 💰 & a number of VCs willing to take a bet on me

1/ Startups are absurdly difficult. The stars must align for even a chance at success.

The @southpkcommons Founder Fellowship gives founders the best chance possible.

Applications are open for $1M and the -1 to 0 support that's produced 145 companies worth $35B.🧵

AI is revolutionizing the role of engineering managers! With LLMs like GPT-4, managers have 2 options: Become Super-managers™️ OR become hybrid IC/managers. This thread explores the implications. 🧵👇 (1/10)
