@majamediaco Anyone on the this platform will blatantly plagiarise.

I had the great Deedy Das very adeptly plagiarise my comment on his post. He took the idea and turned my comment into a new post.

Evidence of exceptional ability and asking how they solved hard problems down to the brass tacks level is what matters.

Those who actually deserve credit know the details of the solution, because it was so hard it got seared into their brain. The phonies and posers who falsely claim credit will flounder at the second or third level of detail.

[Lady Liberty🗽 @tranquilPlane]

A metric is changed to align closely with the desired outcome.

So why don’t we do the same with laws? Laws are there to ensure stability and safety.

Why do we look the other way when something clearly upends the stability of society just because there are no laws around it?

@lennysan User research will always require a human at the other end as long as the user is a human.

Curious as to why would he say it’s completely solved by an agent.

@shreyas Comes naturally. Not sure if it can be learnt in the true sense.

In fact most things that are truly impactful are innate and no matter how much one tries to unpack and learn the building blocks, the person with innate skill will simply win. As mental effort required is minimal.

@shreyas It’s simply ‘genuine curiosity’ meets ‘being truly present’.

Real product-market fit is customers absorbing risk to use you because the pain is that bad. “We'd need to see more customers first” means you don't have it.

@pitdesi Are you sure it’s a smart move for both parties?
The move certainly serves OpenAI from multiple perspectives. In ways we can’t even fathom at the moment. That’s all.

OpenAI just raised $4 billion from 19 investors and guaranteed them a 17.5% annual return to do it.

On $4 billion in committed capital, that is roughly $700 million per year in guaranteed payouts, owed by a company that is projected to lose $14 billion in 2026.

And now this.

And of course there’s this risk as well. But again the theme remains.

A bunch of consulting firms have already fallen prey to exactly what’ll be repeated with YC founders now.

He has engineered a new flavour of win-lose: the great optical win-win.

[@jason @Jason]

Fair warning, YC founders: if you take these tokens, there’s a non-zero chance that OpenAI will study exactly what your startup is doing, copy your idea and put your app into their free offering.

This is the classic platform playbook — be careful, founders!

A mic drop moment @ycombinator tonight

@sama just offered $2M in OpenAI tokens to EVERY YC startup in the current batch in exchange for equity

Just like Yuri Milner offering to invest in every startup back when Sam was a YC partner

I can't wait to see what's unlocked when you let the most driven, creative and formidable founders tokenmaxx

[Lady Liberty🗽 @tranquilPlane]

He is simply using tokens as a currency for transactions and in the process everyone but him loses.

Some lose straight up capital, others lose equity.

Always take the long term view. Temporary discomfort is well.. just temporary.

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

Most people are willing to trade the life they (truly) want, for the comfort of today.

Don't be most people.
Do something hard, embarrass yourself, take risks, and try.

Temporary discomfort is always the price, and there is no other door.

The narrative: AI is already doing the jobs that required PhD.

The reality: Even time zones aren’t personalised on emails by the most talked about AI company.

life is scary and stressful anyways so you might as well accept a lot of responsibility it won’t change the situation that much

[Jack Altman @jaltma]

One of my deep-seated beliefs is that happiness is a choice.

Obviously there are some natural temperaments and life circumstances that make being happy easier or harder, but I think you have to tell yourself your happiness is in your control.

Even outside the big pillars of life like health, relationships, and work, we can have a lot of control on our daily internal experience with things like:

- choosing to reframe losses as learning
- being happy for others' success instead of jealous
- looking for the good instead of bad in people
- focusing on what we're grateful for vs. what we lack
- looking forward to good things vs. dreading bad things
- etc.

"Until death, all defeat is psychological." - Marcus Aurelius

Refuse everything that would lead most people to give up.

Refuse it.
Rise from the dead 1000 times.
Commit to never stay down & never give up.
Everything you want is on the other side of struggle.
