Step away from the blurry haze of your glory days. It's time to embrace the change.

If macro headwinds are around the corner, do you brake hard or steer into the skid?

@AnjneyMidha This is what I'm hoping @gabor and team will be able to achieve - very well positioned

It's fascinating how maintaining my tech & AI optimism feels like an increasingly contrarian position lately

Will you look up from your screens long enough to realize what is happening?

[Anant Mukim @AnantMukim]

Never a dull week

Consistent compounding is incredibly difficult and often underestimated.

Growing 50% month-over-month results in a 5x by month 5, 25x by month 9, and almost 1,000x by month 18.

@lennysan This is great! Can we also bring on @nicochristie to talk about Shortcut?

@LyalinDotCom @OfficialLoganK Amazing, congrats Dmitry! 🔥

If you read carefully, this is precisely what @BrendanFoody has been saying for months, and it's hard to argue against Mercor being incredibly well-poised to being a generational opportunity

A common misconception is that training data is low skill, grunt work - scan some notebooks, mine the internet, create labeled samples.

The data required to advance the model frontier is the opposite. Labs need training data for high-economic-value tasks. And most of these tasks outside of SWE have little documentation - it is complex, domain-specific knowledge built over the years, spanning legacy tools that don’t talk to each other.

That's why we have SWE agents and not knowledge work agents yet.

The companies creating this training data, such as Mercor, are doing extremely high-leverage, high-skill work.

Critical to moving AI forward. And deeply underappreciated.

@nikunj This is super cool, Nikunj. Will you be sharing this or creating a lite web version for people to use?

It costs just as much to dream big as it does to dream small.

@mandylu I recently went to an optometrist and they asked me how much time I spend on screens. Was embarrassing 🫠
