@ghimibip @sridharfyi Try buying industrial robots, machines, lab space and inference hardware on credits :-) not everything is software

@kirtandopamine I saw 10 year of experience on GenAI in a job listing. That’s before attention is all you need paper 🤦‍♂️

@kelvinbuildss more than ever. You always have your phone with you and if you are able to create a CoreML model that is genuinely useful and an app around it, you can easily monetize it.

@solopribuilds Particularly as the CEO you are the one setting the mood for the whole team. If you look panicked, people will start looking for job. If you show confidence and a plan your team is going to stay focused.

@shaunbjohnson if you are interested in industrial applications of AI, applicable now. https://t.co/6EnIB1s2lW We will raise an institutional round soon enough.

@danellisona Everyone has his role. If the cofounder sells or fundraise, it is fair.

@jonathan_gortz LOL. sensitive bunch!

Another day of coding, marketing and agents babysitting. Start at 7:30 am meeting with my team oversea, email scan and urgent reply, then 3-4 hours of focused work, local meetings / more focused work, and at 5-6pm events start. Rinse and repeat.
What's your day like?

@danellisona Yep 6 hours is luxury

@shcallaway @ychernova @WSJ There is Steve Jobs performance and then there Elizabeth Holmes performance.

@mansihukmani_ My lows are pretty low. You have been warned 🤣

[Daniele Bernardini @dani0805]

@rod_mallo True but who is going to buy OpenAI or Anthropic if the model market gets commoditized. The same question applies to a lot of unicorns.

[Daniele Bernardini @dani0805]

I am baffled here. You are leaving potential and leverage on the table. If I were a VC I would look for the rough diamonds that others can’t see. If you can’t repeat the story, but the tech/model/business has real potential, invest and take the time to make it investible. Maybe find them a new cofounder that is a good narrator. You get a 10x in valuation right there.

[Daniele Bernardini @dani0805]

@rod_mallo If it were my money it would. Unless you are betting on flipping it to a bigger fish.

@HixonStudio If you mean Qwen yes. I have experimented a lot with Qwen3.6 35B. Expect GPT 3.5, decoherence after a while, reasoning loops. You need a strong harness to make them do something productive, but once you do you have a local superpower on your laptop even when offline.
