Got fable to hand-write weights of a 100k param model to recognize real versus fake legal citations.
Basically one-shotted a full NN thatโs better than training it
As investors, the job is to underwrite that reality, not to apply a software playbook to it. If you are building / investing in the space, would love to chat!
In software, iteration is close to free, distribution is a link, and margins grow as you scale. In the physical world, every iteration costs money and time, deployments happen site by site, and the edge cases show up in the field.
Donโt want to worry about TTFT, ITL, TPOT and how you are doing on SLOs, while paying the right cost for inference? Just @useRouterPlus
These guys will just nail it for you! And that is just the start. A lot more goodness to solve goodput coming up! ๐
The people of Silicon Valley are unwell.
If you work at a frontier lab or decacorn, youโve got it bad. You havenโt seen your kids, your girlfriendโs annoyed, invites from friends to hang out are waning, even weddings are on hold. This is the time to make your mark and make your money, after all.
If youโre building a startup thatโs trying to compete with or be one of these companies, youโve got it bad. Maybe you passed up a job offer at one a couple years back, which means you left $100M on the table, you fucking idiot. Being an underdog isn't as fun as you thought.
If youโre working on a pre-AI startup, youโve got it bad. Not too long ago you were the belle of the ball, but now your 30% year-on-year growth doesnโt feel like growth at all. It feels like death.
"Too many of my friends are spiraling," Brie Wolfson writes. "I donโt know how weโre supposed to live and work like this."
Itโs all too much, too fast. Too much money, too much growth, too much power, too much change. Every month, a new frontier model is released. Every day, a new unicorn is minted. Seriously. 300 days into the year 2026, and 311 unicorns have been minted so far.
So whatโs left for the sane ones? Brie went looking for teams playing a different game. She found one in Ottawa: a search infrastructure company that many of the AI darlings rely on.
It's growing fast, and its people are well.
