[Jared West @jared_western]

Announcing the Western Chemicals $4M Pre-Seed Fundraise!

We are now building the WORLD’S FIRST vertically integrated duckweed-to-ethanol plant capable of producing 10,000+ gallons of fuel-grade ethanol annually.

Wastewater-to-fuel at planetary scale starts NOW!

Our thesis on Western Chemicals: duckweed has meme potential

[Dima @hyperdima]

Excited for @hyperstitionvc to support Jared and Western Chemicals as they commercialize duckweed. Why we're excited:

1. Academic research has shown duckweed an effective way to extract nitrogen/phosphorus
2. Commercial path is clear: wastewater processing + ethanol byproduct
3. Demand for domestic fuel + supply chain independence

It's the same thing, and something i've been thinking about at @hyperstitionvc

Hyperstitions are ideas so powerful that they become realities. In this case, leopold's thesis on AGI is creating the reality it envisions precisely because it's such a powerful ("genius") narrative.

Pumped to support Jack and Chao as they build a foundation model built around spatial reasoning.

Some thought on what makes us at Hyperstition Research bullish on this:
1. VLA approach in robotics is an artifact of retrofitting large language models to the physical world; custom models can do better
2. Spatial reasoning, which is what @SanchoRobotics is doing, is an efficient form of reasoning, both in data efficiency and accuracy
3. Locomotion in robots is under-explored & thus presents first-mover advantages in capturing the "flexible manufacturing" category

Case in point, their partnership with @multiplylabs is solving movement between workcells. This requires spatial reasoning, geometry, reliability and precision; something only Sancho can do today.

Jack Yang and Chao Cao, congratulations and here's to making your hyperstition a reality 🚀

Our first demo debuted on Jensen Huang's GTC keynote, and today we’re launching @SanchoRobotics 🚀
