The real economy is the most interesting place to build in AI right now.
Talked with @elad about why. Plus why I built a product instead of a rollup, and why robots won't be fixing your heating anytime soon.
Netic is on @Forbes' Next Billion-Dollar Startups list, out today.
Incomplete information in, real-world action out, in real time, with no second attempt. That's the problem we work on.
Proud of the Neticians running toward it. Grateful for the companies who partner with us.
It's a 100°F week across many of our customers' markets. They're operating at peak demand.
95% can look good on a benchmark. It's a failing grade when the other 5% is someone's emergency.
@Netic_AI handled 4,600+ live calls for a single customer on one peak day last week. Across customers, no two situations are alike: an 87-year-old alone in a home hitting 105°F. A flooded basement. A vet clinic overwhelmed with heatstroke cases. Every one had to end in real-world action.
Most of the world's work still happens outside a browser. The hardest AI problems start there.
Netic in @forbes today. Good to see more attention going where the work actually is.
@loveofsports24 @Troutville27 Our GMs have done the best they can with no legit prospects to deal & an owner whose always been a meddler, setting us back years with horrible FA signings back when he did spend, but has gotten increasingly cheap now. TEX/SEA/HOU so much better; will be lucky to finish 3rd IMO😢
@Troutville27 @loveofsports24 Exactly. These minor moves don’t move the needle anyways. Need a massive tear down and rebuild from the farm to the show, combined with new ownership for me to have any hope. We used to be relevant. We are now a joke and perennial losers unfortunately.
@loveofsports24 @Troutville27 I wish/hope you’re right, but roster is no better than anything assembled in recent history. We’ve finished with 89-99 losses each of the last 4 years and haven’t broken .500 since ‘15. So, I have no reason to believe they magically become a winner in ‘26. Sell the team Arte!
@tennisgeek681@GrindeOptions Yeah well that seems to the only guardrail we really have against his recklessness. Although, he has shown a willingness to ignore it much more in second term than the first. Only reason liberation day was walked back some was because bond market fell off a cliff.
@rattlor2000@SleeperAngels Was a pretty good owner early on, but he’s gotten progressively worse. Squandered Trout & Ohtani potential during their prime & is now one of the worst in the league. Clearly lost interest years ago; winning is not a priority. Should sell the team to someone who will make it top
@GrindeOptions Remember “liberation day?” Was that good for the stock market? Now you’ve not only got intensified trade wars & new tariffs, but some warped American imperialism trying to take control of Greenland and going after the fed…what else can Trump do to tank the market and economy?
@GrindeOptions Right…that’s why the DOW, NASDAQ, and S&P 500 are all set to open way down in the 1.5-2% range? Trust me, imposing even more tariffs on our strongest European allies if they fail to support the USA taking over Greenland is not good for stock market or the actual economy.
@SleeperAngels Does it really matter? Even with an elite closer, they will finish below .500, dead last in AL West, & miss playoffs for MLB leading 12th consecutive season. How I feel watching the dumpster fire that Moreno has made out of our Halos -🤬😤😡😖😠😣🤯🤦🏻♂️ #ArturoSellTheTeam#Arte0ut
@Bitcoin_Teddy Wouldn’t almost everyone quit their job for roughly $900,000? The percentage of people pulling in $1M+ a year from their job has got to be something like .1%.
@RightPulseNewss E. 0% & as Trump / MAGA morons would say, this is “fake news.” First, it’s nowhere near $18T in tariff revenue - that would be more than half the entire USA GDP. Second, boasting about taxing American consumers at levels nobody has ever seen before is a victory lap to celebrate?
@SleeperAngels Typical Angels moves - with no farm system, make hope and a prayer trades coupled with signing washed up FAs to 1 year deals hoping they somehow magically return to form. I’ve seen this movie before. Will be another last place finish in AL West. Nothing changes until Moreno sells
@SleeperAngels Kikuchi & Soriano are okay, but more like middle of the rotation guys, Detmers is a reliever, Rodriguez hasn’t pitched since ‘24 & coming back from major surgery, Dana is a minor leaguer who had ERA close to 10 in 3 MLB starts, Manoah flamed out and was DFA’d by two good teams.
