“So you bootstrapped the whole company?”

“Yeah, I turned it down. Turned down the funding.”

“Oh.”

“Yeah, I turned it down just to do this, just to grind it out, build it myself.”

“So you had an opportunity to take venture money?”

“Yeah, a term sheet and everything.”

“From who?”

“Yeah, a big fund out in Menlo Park. It was a top-tier firm, though. And they offered me like 15, some shit like 10 billion or something like that, 5 billion, something like that.”

“Wait, wait, wait. A term sheet.”

“Yeah.”

“Okay, but not 5 billion dollars. They offered you 5 billion dollars for your seed round?”

“Yeah.”

“For a seed round?”

“Yeah.”

“What are we doing here?”

“Like, what the y’all, like, you know what I’m saying?”

“That’s more than the GDP of a small country.”

“But I was so younger, like, I didn’t know what a cap table was.”

“Are you sure they offered you 5 billion dollars?”

“I turned it down.”

“You didn’t even have a product.”

“It was a SAFE, like, I had to give up equity for this decade.”

“But you would get $5 billion?”

“Yeah.”

“You’d be one of the most valuable companies on earth.”

“It was somewhere, it was in the billions, though.”

A new baseline for what models can do has been set. This is incredible!

I expect it will change nearly every workflow we’ve designed around the old way of working with AI.

[Thinking Machines @thinkymachines]

People talk, listen, watch, think, and collaborate at the same time, in real time. We've designed an AI that works with people the same way.

We share our approach, early results, and a quick look at our model in action.

Grocery is a $1.5T domestic market — bigger than restaurants, bigger than hotels. But it's running on technology from the Reagan administration.

We just raised a $22M Series B for @VoriHQ to make every supermarket in America autonomous.

If you really think you can do something special...
Then live like it.

Move in the world like you're on a mission.

Start doing things that support who you really are, instead of settling for the smaller life.

[Alexander Whedon @alex_whedon]

Introducing SubQ - a major breakthrough in LLM intelligence.

It is the first model built on a fully sub-quadratic sparse-attention architecture (SSA),

And the first frontier model with a 12 million token context window which is:

- 52x faster than FlashAttention at 1MM tokens
- Less than 5% the cost of Opus

Transformer-based LLMs waste compute by processing every possible relationship between words (standard attention).

Only a small fraction actually matter.

@subquadratic finds and focuses only on the ones that do.

That's nearly 1,000x less compute and a new way for LLMs to scale.

The cost of skipping foundational skill-building is becoming the kind of person who needs luck to look competent.

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

No one wants to hear it but you will have to *work* on everything that is worth having in life.

Your career, your relationships, your health - whatever it is...

So if you don't want to work for it, be prepared to be very disappointed in the quality of everything you get.

@justinskycak Just dropping truth bombs one after another huh?

[Justin Skycak @justinskycak]

It is hard to reach your potential when you continually waste your best energy figuring out what to spend it on.

[Justin Skycak @justinskycak]

The point of structure is not to limit you. It is to stop wasting your best energy on re-deciding the obvious.

[Justin Skycak @justinskycak]

The cost of avoiding structure is that every day has to be renegotiated from scratch.
