We’ve been cooking up smart routing at Databricks. It is cutting our internal coding costs, and many engineers didn’t even notice it was on.

The new one will come soon to Databricks Unity Gateway. DM me if you’d like to try it first.

Exactly 10 years ago (Jan 2016), I stepped in as CEO. We had just closed out Q4 with a total of $600k in revenue (screenshot from board deck).

Fast forward a decade.
Q4 audited GAAP Revenue: $1,290M and over $5.4B revenue run-rate ending January.

I’ve never tweeted our exact quarterly financials before, but seeing that $1.29B number cross my desk on my 10-year anniversary hit differently. To the team that built this: thank you. If you're following the data space, you know exactly what this milestone means. 🏗️

Free Dolly! Introducing the first *commercially viable*, open source, instruction-following LLM. Dolly 2.0 is available for commercial applications without having to pay for API access or sharing data with 3rd parties. https://t.co/HtRVSmArFU

[Ali Ghodsi @alighodsi]

We are open sourcing Dolly, a ChatGPT-like model that can do instruction following, created for $30, trained 3 hours on 1 server. The secret in magical human-like interactivity probably lies in a small dataset.

@Jason Serving their short interest well I believe! Most of this information is already public and what many large conglomerates do for tax benefits, just that they are changing the narrative to make it looks like a con job. Time will tell!

@Jason Wow.. this can’t be real 🤦🏼‍♂️

@AndreasKoureas_ Cherry picking at best to alter the facts!

There needs to be a large push for @Tesla Superchargers to be installed near (or in) every national park. We should be able to enjoy our nation’s natural beauty with the ease and reliability of first-party fast charging! The nearest Supercharger to Glacier NP is 134 miles!

The government now estimates you'll save ~$11,500 in fuel costs over 5 years driving a Tesla Model 3 vs. a BMW 330i at today's gas prices. https://t.co/ppQXBK0kpR
