@shiri_shh @mihuq may I have the prompt too @shiri_shh - really appreciate it sir!

@aryangovil @j__vinny can you tell me some? would love to know if there’s any consumer facing use cases

[fatnerd @mvu_goat]

@aryangovil @j__vinny what serious use cases does EEG offer? can’t do anything interesting with low-bandwidth & high noise signals though

the next thing after AI is brain-computer interface

that’s the only way the human race can persist - we need to be fully enhanced as an intelligent biological being, and the only logical way to do that is to merge with AI

the ethical worries will go away once we all have a common threat to our future

[fatnerd @mvu_goat]

AI for browser use will be the next big thing after coding - we’re not paying enough attention yet

Polymarket will launch its own L2

Bro needs exit liquidity.

Introducing USVC - a single basket of high-growth venture capital, for everyone.

No accreditation required, SEC-registered, and a very low $500 minimum.

Includes OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, Sierra, Crusoe, Legora, and Vercel. As USVC adds more companies, investors will own a piece of that too.

Liquidity typically comes when companies exit, but we’re aiming to let investors redeem up to 5% of the fund every quarter. This isn’t guaranteed, but if we can make it work, you won’t be locked up like in a traditional venture fund.

It runs on AngelList, which already supports $125 billion of investor capital.

And I’ve joined USVC as the Chairman of its Investment Committee.
—

Go back to the 1500s, you set sail for the new world to find tons of gold - that was adventure capital.

Early-stage technology is the modern version. It says we are going to create something new, and it’s risky. It’s daring.

But ordinary people can’t invest until it’s old, until it’s no longer interesting, until everybody has access to it. By the time a stock IPOs, most of the alpha is gone. The adventure is gone. Public market investors are literally last in line.

This problem has become farcical in the last decade. Startups are reaching trillion dollar valuations in the private markets while ordinary investors have their noses up to the glass, wondering when they’ll be let in.

Investing in private markets isn’t easy. You need feet on the ground. You need judgment built over years. Most people don’t have the patience to wait ten or twenty years for an investment to come to fruition.

But there is no more productive, harder-working way to deploy a dollar than in true venture capital.

USVC enables you to invest in venture capital in a broad, accessible, professionally-managed way, through a single basket of innovation, focused on high-growth startups, at all stages.

It is how you bet on the future of tech: the smartest young people in the world, working insane hours, leveraged to the max, with code, hardware, capital, media, and community. Your dollar doesn’t work harder anywhere.

There is an old line - in the future, either you are telling a computer what to do, or a computer is telling you what to do. You don’t want to be on the wrong side of that transaction.

USVC lets you buy the future, but you buy it now. Then you wait, and if you are right, you get paid.

@beffjezos makes so much sense now

the signs were definitely there

> Elon constantly talks about how xAI will dominate coding in the future
> Elon poached some Cursor leaders last month
> xAI is way behind other labs on coding
> Cursor had some serious competitors with Claude code and Codex gaining more market share
> Cursor doesn’t have the capacity / infra / hardware expertise to train serious coding models to compete with other labs. xAI offers all of this
> Coding is literally the only area where AI agents excel the most, why not go all-in on this when you have money?
> Elon realizes the importance of crushing coding capabilities since all of his companies require extreme software engineering expertise
