@cheyava_falls app is looking crisp

[ayat @ayatabourashed]

people think ai will replace scientists.

it won’t.

it will replace the parts of science
that feel like paperwork.

but it can't replace curiosity.

curiosity is still human.

[ayat @ayatabourashed]

a molecule can be brilliant.
and still fail.

not safe enough.
not scalable enough.
not differentiated enough.

success is multiplicative.
failure is binary.

[ayat @ayatabourashed]

[ayat @ayatabourashed]

move to sf or nyc if you want.

just don’t pretend that’s what makes you a founder.

the builders worth watching are too deep in the work to care where it happens.

the skyline isn’t the asset.

you are.

@cheyava_falls

[ayat @ayatabourashed]

no one cares.

beautiful, right?

frees you to build the thing you actually want.
do the thing that feels slightly impossible.

then you drop something they can’t ignore.

[ayat @ayatabourashed]

@btchydra187 exactly. and at the end of the day, investors want founders with grit, creativity and resilience. phds have all that and more.

[ayat @ayatabourashed]

time and time again, i hear investors say phds make bad founders.

but phds aren’t risky. they’re pre-vetted by a system designed to break them.

if they’re still standing, you should probably give them money.

[ayat @ayatabourashed]

@cheyava_falls honestly this is what most founders fear

[ayat @ayatabourashed]

@emily_yu @GusDomel ooo i see that pun!

[ayat @ayatabourashed]
