Biggest takeaway from R1: Apple’s actual AI moment is finally coming. They’re the company best setup for on-device inference and these memory requirements are going to make that possible very quickly.
Broke: paying full price for AI products and getting roasted by them Woke: negotiating Bespoke: making the meanest AI on the internet say 'ily2' while giving you dinner money and swag @interaction My therapist says this was a healthy relationship progression 🥲



Turns out I wasn’t sad, I just needed San Francisco’s weather to actually be good for more than 2 consecutive days.
Awesome conversation on the latest 20VC ep from two legends @HarryStebbings and @jakesaper. Lot of substance here ranging from AI and vertical SaaS to fund dynamics. And a bonus mention of our new product - Jurist! youtube.com/watch?v=vdbMuq…
People often ask me what type of founders/companies I like investing in.. see below 👇
the gap between benchmarks and real-world use cases is…a chasm

If you’ve got plans for this weekend, cancel them, and go for the @NBA all star crossover events. So. Well. Put together.

Gating future models behind an abstraction is a miss. This direction is fine for ChatGPT, but if true, GPT-5 onwards I expect OpenAI’s API revenue to drop significantly. The B2B foundational model battle is Anthropic/Others’ to win.
OPENAI ROADMAP UPDATE FOR GPT-4.5 and GPT-5: We want to do a better job of sharing our intended roadmap, and a much better job simplifying our product offerings. We want AI to “just work” for you; we realize how complicated our model and product offerings have gotten. We hate…

The best crossover of the year. Great work @Spotify and @notebooklm
