Great discussion with @thsottiaux and @steipete on the VivaTech main stage, led by @CharliePerreau.

We’ve moved from conversations with AI to systems that can take action and pursue goals.

The momentum behind Codex and agents is impossible to miss!

I will officially start at OpenAI as CEO of Applications on August 18. I am sharing this essay on why I believe AI can be the greatest source of empowerment for all. 🧵

Tulipmania was a bubble—but so was the Manhattan Project.

Under the right conditions, @ByrneHobart and @TobiasAHuber argue, bubbles mobilize the ideas, capital, and energy needed to bring about technological and scientific revolutions.

Boom: Bubbles and the End of Stagnation is out now. https://t.co/JHDQgGuq90

Excited to expand the partnership between Nvidia and Stripe: https://t.co/oIdEUW0afy.

We're training some pretty neat financial foundation models—with Nvidia GPUs—that are improving payments performance for Stripe customers. And Nvidia is extending access to their cloud platform with Stripe.

[Patrick Collison @patrickc]

An excellent discussion with @jeff_weinstein about how Stripe develops products.

Stripe Tour Paris today! Stripe has powered over 100,000 French users since our launch here, now including 50% of CAC40 companies. Excited to announce Alma support, Terminal upgrades, and deeper CB integration, and talk to @arthurmensch about AI.

Speaking of…our next @stripepress pop-up will be in Paris(!) on Thursday, May 23.

AND @jmechner will be in town to talk about Prince of Persia — and to sign copies. We also made a special PoP zine that I can’t wait to share. ❣️

See you soon, Paris: https://t.co/RAKuSxoksg 🇫🇷🕹️

[Maud Camus @maudcamus]

Save the date! 📅 Venez prendre un café avec l'équipe Stripe Press le 23 mai et notre invité d'honneur Jordan Mechner, créateur du jeu Prince of Persia. Ce sera aussi le moment de repartir avec toute la collection Stripe Press :) ☕️📚 https://t.co/N1XldkSU2o

[Stripe Press @stripepress]

We’ll be in Paris soon for a Stripe Press pop-up ☕📚

Be like AI Will Smith and consume spaghetti.

We’re getting ready to announce our largest set of updates to @Stripe on Weds.

And on Thurs, @collision will show my personal favorite upcoming product in the Future of payments keynote.

See you at Sessions!

[Fidji Simo @fidjissimo]

Coming from a French culture that values beauty and craftsmanship above all else has helped me appreciate this deeply. When you birth products for billions of people, you have a responsibility to make them not just useful but also beautiful. Taste is not optional.

[Maud Camus @maudcamus]

Also a great reminder that "Even the most laborious payment experience is easier than washing dishes for the rest of the night, or being pursued by a spatula-brandishing waiter."

Before you head to your favorite LLM for a summary, here are my 10 favorite take aways 🧵

Reflecting on this year, we sought to better understand the extraordinary drive within the AI field in France.

Around 70% of AI companies globally use Stripe.

France has emerged as a noticeably large cluster of AI activity.

Using our internal LLM tool has been really valuable. My favorite feature is preset prompts—which can be lovingly refined by one person—and then shared with everyone else. Popular examples: style guides, SQL query helper, and an ELI5 teacher (pictured).

[Stripe Press @stripepress]

Scaling People is a tactical playbook for building a company and setting its people up for success, from an executive who was deeply involved in driving growth at both @Google and @Stripe.
