Marc Andreessen says the gap between what AI-native startups and incumbents think AI can do is "the widest he's ever seen."

His exact words: "The AI-native early stage startups have just a completely different view on what they can do with AI than the typical incumbents in almost any industry."

Not slightly different. Completely different.

That's the actual risk for large companies right now. It's not slow adoption — it's a fundamental miscalibration of what AI is capable of. The startups competing against them haven't made that mistake.

The asymmetry compounds fast. Incumbents build roadmaps around a floor. Startups build businesses around a ceiling. By the time the floor catches up to the ceiling, the market has already moved.

Here is crazy that pretty much every F500 CEO is complicit in

1. They self insure - good thing
2. They hire a third party administrator that is owned by a Too Big To Care insurance company. - Really Bad
3. They allow that TPA to deny care determined by the doctors that the TPA selected to be in network - Horrifically bad
4. They don’t tell the CEOs about the denied care , when it’s their money and ultimately their decision as to whether they should pay for care - more horrific
5. Employees and their families get sicker while the denial is appealed. Again, when the ceo has no clue. Even if the cost to help the patient could a small amount. - insane

Big self insured companies do dumb shit that makes the cost of care in this country far higher than it should be.

It’s not their core competency and they often listen to consultants whose interests are not aligned with theirs.

As of today, more than 97% of our API traffic is on ChatCompletions using GPT-4 or GPT-3.5-turbo.

Our plan is to focus future efforts on the ChatCompletions API so Completions will be moving into a legacy status.

My beagle recklessly yet precisely disassembled my iPods. The case looks like a satisfying chew toy.

@VSRob29 Pivot is the podcast I listen to most! Check out https://t.co/l10ddH0C93 too. The two podcasts balance each other out.

@donasarkar @shanselman I'm afraid bedbugs will get in my suitcase and I'll take them home. So my suitcase never touches the bed. Probably an irrational fear but hey I'm a germophobe.
