startup #pitch on audio drop-in #clubhouse isn't natural. My view from investor perspective, and being ADHD.

1st 30 seconds:

1. stage, category/sector, and $ask and geography

2. Traction

3. Growth $ / %

Majority of #VC have thesis to meet 1st.

Thoughts?

See my guide on how to slim down Visual Studio Code (Insider edition) to work more effectively with a low-footprint machine, eg 8GB RAM.

Fascinating to listen live to Jamie Dimon Chairman and CEO, JPMorganChase discuss their approach to using Data and AI, and sharing views on breaking down barriers internally to fast track adoption of AI while being regulated.

Excellent leadership tips.

Will AI force us all to re-think Nuclear power?

There's not enough electricity today to keep up with the demand for AI.

t's just a matter of time before we reach the inflection point when most software code will be written by Gen AI, including test code, synthetic test data.....

But what does this mean to mainstay project management or innovation methods and processes?
