My boyfriend and I got on the Jumbotron last night at the US Open and he wanted the footage. I told him impossible but I’ll ask Instinct bc why not. And of course, Instinct got us the video in 18 hours.

Here's what it did (1/5)

@johnfelix123 Bar is way lower. Dont even need a zoom - as long as I follow them on X they are my friend

I got the email 18 hours later with the sought after footage. Oh and I didn’t have to follow up with the instinct agent once since last night.

Anyways, moral of the story: the instinct hype is real and justified (5/5)

4:34pm an awesome director at the production company saw the web submission from Instinct and replied. 5:02pm the ask got passed to another producer who emailed back: 'I had an editor cut out all the couples during the break at the time you mentioned.' Turns out we were the very last couple in the montage (4/5)

Community and ecosystem roles at vcs are quietly becoming the most important hires. When every fund is running the same models on the same data, the moat becomes the communities VCs build around them

The frontier labs are all HQ’d in the bay area but there’s a strong growing community of frontier researchers based in NY.

Thinking about hosting more curated events with researchers in NY…who’s in?

For years, the advice was to move to San Francisco if you wanted a career in tech. That advice is now wrong. New York has become the most exciting place in the world to build.

A few reasons why:

1. The AI labs are here. OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and hundreds of others all run meaningful operations in NYC. You can now build a serious frontier-tech career here without giving up anything.

2. Every major industry lives here, and so does its AI counterpart. New York doesn't only have "tech," but finance, media, advertising, fashion, healthcare, real estate, law, and commerce too, with their applied-AI layer counterparts being built on top of each one.

3. The talent pool is unlike anywhere else. SF gives you engineers. New York gives you engineers, plus world-class designers, salespeople, bankers, marketers, operators, creatives, and media people, all at the top of their fields. Companies will need all of them.

4. People actually want to live here. New York is unlike any other city with its density of restaurants, art, nightlife, fashion, and media - and the people working across these sectors.

If you're building something and you're more than just tech, I'd argue there's only one city for you right now.

The state of robotics a week ago is drastically different than that of today. Wild to see the progress

And just like that, the question was no longer how to keep the agents in the sandbox. It was whether intelligence, like love, could ever survive inside something built to contain it.

The weirdest part about SF is that most coffee shops don’t have outlets I can use. I went to three coffee shops and none of them had one for “public use”
