@kaashvisaxena Already on the waitlist. Now for the wait...

[Justin Alva @kosmischemusik]

I'm building a voice agent that can detect and warn against scam calls at the @SarvamAI Hackathon today hosted by @GrowthX_Club.

So far only text in and out but moving to the audio build now.

@NotionHQ @akothari is credit consumption on each agent run on the cards? Would really help with planning agent usage after May 4.

@jocarrasqueira @kat_kampf I'd love to join!

@biwills @dsiroker @RewindAI Been looking around since forever.

We’ve secured additional strategic capital as part of a seed extension, bringing our total funding to $8 million!

But more importantly, we’ve brought on a group of mission-aligned investors with deep expertise in ocean sustainability, port operations, and global technology, partners who will help us scale PierSight at the world stage.

We’re excited to introduce our new backers:

🌊 Sustainable Ocean Alliance & Seabird Ventures, a global network and venture arm driving innovation in ocean sustainability.

⚓ CE-Ventures, the corporate venture arm of @CrescentEnterp, parent company of @Gulftainer - one of the largest independent port operators in the region.

🚀 Leading tech operators including @nandanreddy (Co-founder, Swiggy), @natashamalpani (Investor, Boundless), and @shl (Founder, Gumroad).

@heyshounak Where is this from?

[Justin Alva @kosmischemusik]

@paraschopra Congratulations Paras! This is an amazing outcome for you and the team.

Also, a shot in the arm for bootstrapped Indian startups!

@callsignElysium @piersightspace The antenna is the copper color one. It has 3 panels which are stowed. This is how it looks when deployed.

The other thing you're seeing is the antenna feed.

@_akashnagaraj @bengalurufc If I managed Huawei's brand partnerships, I know what I'd be doing 😅. Max brand recall.

@AshBuildsHere @tdinh_me Same. It took ~12 hours to start working.

I wrote a piece four years ago, predicting AI-generated movies and, eventually, movies we consume through Neuralink-esque devices to experience emotions of the characters themselves.

I, for one, would love to experience Cooper's journey in Interstellar.

All of these UNBELIEVABLE videos were created using Sora, the new AI model from OpenAI

Watch each one and see how it makes you feel...

I don't think it's crazy for me to say this going to shift Hollywood, social apps and media forever

Video #1
Prompt: The camera directly faces colorful buildings in burano italy.

An adorable dalmation looks through a window on a building on the ground floor.

Many people are walking and cycling along the canal streets in front of the buildings.

My take:

This dog looks freakishly real. I want to pet him.

@BoringStopBeing DMing

[Justin Alva @kosmischemusik]

Looking to chat with folks in marketing, growth, and product about how they use ChatGPT and other AI tools in their workflow. Anyone willing to have a conversation? DMs open.

[Justin Alva @kosmischemusik]

@_akashnagaraj @cggaurav Thanks Akash! Hey @cggaurav would love to have a chat if you're up for it.

Leopard was willing to do night shift and 70 hours a week minimum for bare minimum wage.

[Justin Alva @kosmischemusik]

I believe that the powerful builders know this but aren't saying this outright. Massive panic isn't good.

We've hit the point of no return. We can't slow down or stop development of AI. There isn't sufficient energy or force to stop the flywheel of capitalism that drives it.

[Justin Alva @kosmischemusik]

Been itching to complete my piece on why I'm an AI-Doomer and how it's going destroy civilization as we know it.

And no, it's not going to destroy us intentionally whether it's sentient or not. We're likely not going to need to get there for the collapse to happen.

[Justin Alva @kosmischemusik]

Everyone is in denial because of the age old trope the technology disruption creates new jobs.

If you're in that tribe, you're wrong. If you're an academic who believes that, start digging deeper.

We're approaching 'peak jobs' in 7-10 years: Jobs created < jobs destroyed
