A mic drop moment @ycombinator tonight
@sama just offered $2M in OpenAI tokens to EVERY YC startup in the current batch in exchange for equity
Just like Yuri Milner offering to invest in every startup back when Sam was a YC partner
I can't wait to see what's unlocked when you let the most driven, creative and formidable founders tokenmaxx
@JesusFerna7026@jburnmurdoch@King_ofSweden Could be interesting to include why fertility decline is also about sexual culture, bodily risk and dignity. Women hear horror stories about birth + shocking maternity care / porn app culture increasingly separates female desirability from motherhood (it's no longer 'beautiful').
@paulg "Things that drive fear, anger, envy, greed will grab the base of your brainstem, and the AI figured that out. We’re approaching creating a more positive place... maximising emotional wellbeing, for making people feel better, not worse." — @williamready

I’ve always believed the No.1 application of AI should be to improve human health.
That work started with AlphaFold, and now at @IsomorphicLabs with the mission to reimagine drug discovery and one day solve all disease!
We are turbocharging that goal with $2.1B in new funding.
@adamshuaib When you are obsessed with something, time moves differently.
You don't have to push to be engaged, you have to turn it off to do anything else.
It's an unimpressive-sounding word, but one of the most powerful motivations is the motivation of the hobbyist. That's what keeps successful founders working on their companies long past the point when they've made enough to quit. It's their beloved project.
@paulg@bilalfarooqui Hi Bilal women can be VC 🐐 too 😉... Carolynn Levy created the SAFE, Aileen Lee coined the term 'unicorn' + @jesslivingston, Mary Meeker, @melindagates , @laurenepowell, @tgr , Ann Miura-Ko, Kirsten Green, Heidi Roizen, Jenny Lee, Eileen Burbidge, Cyan Banister, Esther Dyson...
Sacrificing your relationships with family and friends who care about you, in order to be more "successful" and get more validation from a society of strangers who actually don't care about you is never a good deal, but sadly, many people can't see it until it's already too late.
WORLD'S FIRST PRESCRIBED LIVE PODCAST AT PARLIAMENT is tomorrow, a men's creative health session w/ Dr Simon Opher MP • Tom Findlay @GrooveArmada • Tom Walker @JonathanPieNews • Dr Zubir Ahmed MP @zubirahmed • Lu Jackson.
