@YuviLightman @naval Give it a few years. It will be possible. Raman on a PIC

We are helping AI understand the biological world. Could not agree more.

"We're never going to get human-level AI unless systems learn by observing the world."

Companies building video-first AI will leapfrog text-based systems.

A lesson most founders learn too late.

Something I just told a founder: Stay as small as you can for as long as you can. People who come to visit your office should always be surprised that such an important company has so few employees.

i’d argue you’re too easily moved by the choice words. “privilege” and “equality” are selected because they confuse the notion of fairness. another way to frame his statement “if you’re accustomed to succeeding due to hard work, ingenuity, risk/sacrifice, and, sure, some amount of luck, having the outcomes reset so that everyone is rewarded more equally feels unfair.”

is succeeding after making good choices, sacrificing personally, and working hard really “privilege”?

is it oppressive that everyone doesn’t get to the same place?

perhaps the real oppression is the loss of individual liberties when naively egalitarian philosophies mutate into marxism, denying opportunities for individual sacrifice, effort, and achievement to be rewarded.

framed as privilege v equality misses the mark.. equality of opportunity and equality of outcome are v different things. silicon valley’s most successful are the immigrants who found america as one of the only places on earth where an individual with zero baseline privilege can struggle and sacrifice and effortfully succeed. calling them privileged after the fact seems hardly the point. but an easy one to make.

Bill, a single day of poor performance is part of playing at a high level.

Serena Williams:2015 US Open semifinal. Williams had 40 unforced errors and lost to an unseeded Roberta Vinci.

LeBron James: Game 4 of the 2011 NBA Finals.
8 pts in 45 minutes of play.

Peyton Manning: Super Bowl XLVIII
The worst QBR in a Super Bowl in eight years. Lost to Seattle 43-8.

These three examples remind us that even generational greats are vulnerable to a single nightmare performance. Williams added two more Slams, LeBron returned to win four more championships, and Manning rebounded to win another Super Bowl two seasons later.

Keep playing. It's the only way to win.

@BillAckman @ZohranKMamdani This is terrifying how brazenly the destruction of our country is being called for.

We're proud of the breakthrough technology we're creating. Using Raman spectroscopy - a proven, well-researched laser technique - plus AI, we will read complete molecular stories in blood and urine, detecting diseases before symptoms appear. Revolutionary healthcare.

Government just opposed Elizabeth Holmes sentence reduction, claiming she's "building again" based on @nytimes reporting. That article was wrong then, still wrong now. She isn't building Haemanthus, @per_asp3ra and a team of photonics, AI and health experts are.
