Construction is most unsexy sexy market out right now.

The US is spending $50 billion on data center construction, exceeding the combined spending on airports, ports, and mass transit, per Bloomberg.

Anthropic has amazingly intelligent models, but the past week or so has been disappointing to say the least

Beginning July 20, Claude Fable 5 will be included in all Max and Team Premium plans, at 50% of limits.

Pro and Team Standard users will continue to have access to Fable via usage credits, and will receive a one-time $100 credit.

Demand for Fable has been challenging to predict, which is why we rolled it out to subscription plans in stages, extending access several times as we secured additional capacity.

The domestic LLM race between Anthropic and OpenAI is interesting to watch, but China has consistently shown they can play too. First with Deepseek's initial launch and recently with Kimi. America needs to solve the compute problem to tackle the greater threat of China

Legacy industries like construction are struggling to adopt new technologies, often due to a lack of education in AI. I'm curious to what will happen to these industries once the older generation retires and AI is finally adopted

I have been a big supporter of Anthropic and the models they push out, but it feels like they are TRYING to lose customers

The highest leverage I have gotten from getting into YC is the energy. It's been a while since I have felt this way and it feels amazing and super motivating when everyone around you is changing the world

[Michael Lin @immichaellin]

Fable 5 is incredibly smart and accurate, but Sol is almost as smart but way cheaper. The choice is obvious for me and a lot of my peers
