@amyecheetham And some of the best VCs have built their careers on the premise that founders talk too

@akothari @worm_emoji @NotionHQ @ivan @ivanhzhao Whoa, so for its first 5 years, Notion was <10 people?

@benspringwater Count me in!

Classic Jane Street interview question

[Moustache Scottie @MoustacheBarnes]

You’re offered the choice to take an uncontested, offhand layup for $100,000, but if you miss you die

Do you take the layup?

[Bryce DeFigueiredo @bdefig]

Ah yes, famously, the best way to make something accessible to everyone is to restrict supply

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Two months ago, when @AOC and I proposed an AI data center moratorium, we were called “Luddites.”

Now New York is on the verge of passing a moratorium and dozens of localities are doing the same.

People understand: AI must work for all, not just oligarchs.

@morganlinton That’s some level of scar tissue that the Google twitter bot always assumes you’re mad at it

@gregisenberg I think it would be cool to point an agent at them and make them into a personal podcast

My hot take is that if this works, OpenAI will buy it

@signulll Smart ambitious people winning together come in many flavors

@sur4js Huge untapped influencer economy that currently has no good solutions. Almost feels like IRL Shopify.

@AcquiredFM Be careful or you’ll get acquired by Anthropic

@ana__vc @mil000 100%. Not sure why an investor isn’t allowed to be a real person with a point of view??

[Bryce DeFigueiredo @bdefig]

@lindaxie @mil000 Agree, what is up with this comment section. There’s some legit brainrot in here.

[Bryce DeFigueiredo @bdefig]

@km It’s even better for them now than in search. With search, Google was really the one partner that mattered. Now with three competing for the assistant layer, Apple has leverage over price.

[Bryce DeFigueiredo @bdefig]

@km Yeah I think it’s that they still own the user interface and that at any point, they’ll just partner with a frontier lab / Google and get all the features with no capex.

And that’s before the silicon even matters (still a couple years out before local models get food enough).

@benhylak If she can win the consumer side, this is actually really interesting

Works = consumer hypergrowth + high usage and retention

This looks like a festival lineup 😭😭

[Bryce DeFigueiredo @bdefig]

@paulg One of the most satisfying things about the AI wave is that it's blasted open the Overton window of ideas that can be taken seriously.

Who would have believed "data centers in space" in 2021? Now, it's like, "well yeah, obviously we'll try it," and crazy doesn't sound so crazy.

[Bryce DeFigueiredo @bdefig]

Before you say anything, yes the S&P is up today.
