@shaunmmaguire@MollySOShea@BrendanFoody@mercor Curious as to the earlier reason you didnโt? Too much managed services or was it that you felt tech cos would just build the HIL and workflow themselves and turn off the faucet?
@kristaletz@bot What do you feel differentiates Grok GTM from others? I built the same agents and workflows across sources of truth. Always looking for optimization or UX improvements by swapping harnesses, curious your take.
Sports is liquid now. Talent flows to money, playing time, and fit, and it flows fast.
A decade ago the best programs didn't just sign the best players. They signed the next three guys behind them. Five stars waited two years for their turn. That world is gone.
The third running back doesn't wait anymore. He can take real money and a starting job somewhere else tomorrow, and the portal lets him do it in January.
By late October only three unbeaten teams were left, the fewest at that point in 49 years. Five of the top seven lost in one week, a first in the poll's 90-year history.
Indiana is the blueprint. 52 transfers in two years, almost no four stars, zero five stars, and a title built on fit and age, not recruiting rankings.
The portal is free agency now. Retention is a budget decision, not a loyalty speech. Only seven Power Four starting QBs waited two-plus seasons as a backup.
NIL didn't make college football equal. It made it liquid. The programs that win won't recruit the best. They'll manage a roster the best.
Reddit: revenue up 53%, stock down double digits. US users shrank, search referrals are falling 1M+ a week. The 90s walled gardens are back, this time as logins and AI answers. The open web is closing again.
@gregisenberg I agree but the hardest part for existing businesses is a consumption only model is challenging on a per unit basis. Yet to see this cracked at scale
Yet most enterprise c-suite donโt want to make the investment spend because they donโt see or guarantee the return and outside some of the major tech cos, an enterprise F1000 ceo doesnโt want that heavy spend on their P&L because of misaligned bonus incentives. Take archives at a minimum. Most will not spend more on enterprise context.
7/ Open standards are forming underneath it all. The plumbing that lets agents from different companies work together. If it stays open, you stay in control.
