Iโd like to say AI didnโt change much about building a startup, but one thing did: What was once fast is now slow. Tech is changing faster, customers are buying faster, competitors are shipping faster, and VCs are investing faster. Same tune played at 2x speed.
I will officially start at OpenAI as CEO of Applications on August 18. I am sharing this essay on why I believe AI can be the greatest source of empowerment for all. ๐งต openai.com/index/ai-as-thโฆ
Indeed. A founderโs first job is stewardship, ending only when every team member and shareholder who trusted you with their career or capital is safe. Anything less is day trading in human capital.
So true. Windsurf and others are really bad examples of founders leaving their teams behind and not even sharing the proceeds with their team. I definitely would not work with their founders next time.
Fuck everyone who protested the fake genocide in Gaza but are now silent on the actual genocide happening in Syria. - @ScarlettGrace92
