I’ll be hosting weekly office hours with @nextplayso by @benln . I’ll be helping people out with bootstrapping, scaling, how to leverage AI, and thinking through your needs as a non-technical founder. How can I help?

Overheard: “Instead of worrying about how AI will kill us all one day.. how about we focus on making ourselves less interesting to kill?!” — Jessa (@IversusAI) is dope! 😂 😂 😂 at #imagineai at #CornellTech

@PaddyG96 Was there a niche you walked away from? like it was good but you pivoted to then go into something that fit even better?

[deepak devjani @ddevjani]

@APompliano morning. You mentioned some early data indicating how GDP growth might grow faster because of companies using AI to improve operations vs not using it.

Would love some insights on that, anything you can share.

Thx mate, the newsletter is dope btw.

Our regulators aren't equipped to detect this or do much about this.

We'll wake up in 10, 20 years and realize even fewer companies own an even larger piece of the AI revolution.

This is the next paradigm of corporate influence.

The chip on MSFT's shoulder.

The thing is, Microsoft missed the social boat. (FB)
They missed the smartphone boat (Nokia).
They missed the music player one as well (Zune) and the video calling one (Skype).

They are NOT kidding around this time with AI.

But there's a problem.

[deepak devjani @ddevjani]

The PROBLEM that most of us are ignoring:

This is allowing Microsoft to quickly grab enough influence in enough layers of the industry to create a resilient monopoly.

And this time MSFT is doing it the smart way, by not taking on outright controlling stake. so they can deny this

There's no such thing as a No.

There's only a "Not right now"

Ofc this applies to sales.

Do not use this in personal life obvs.

@GuzKhanOfficial @guzkh
YO you have ANY idea how INFURIATING it is to have waited months to see you live on this 28th JUST to find out you’ve cancelled the show?? c’mon bruv. you think that’s done?

@levelsio @AndreyAzimov LinkedIn is eagerly, already exploring this. The problem needs training data on who was hired to which roles. From there we can train a model to either assign “likelihood to succeed in this role” or categorize people in “fit / not fit” type groups for each role.

FINALLY. #OpenAI now supports Function Calling out of the box. This is going to BOOST us to a more usable AI assistant. You can ask #ChatGPT to "look up the weather this wknd, if it's over 72, find rooftop lounges, make reservations for me & wife, and put it on our calendars"

"One of the largest groups of exploited workers" are the 'adjuncts' who "now account for more than 70% of all faculty."

Before tenure, I was denied my federally mandated parental leave *twice* at two different colleges, by supervisors who were Prius-driving Bernie-voters.
