The biggest learning I’ve had so far as an entrepreneur is that it’s crucial to align your incentives with your values. That’s what we’re trying to do everyday @huggingface by making sure we build systems and features to benefit (instead of being hurt) by more openness and…
Peter said a few things on the podcast that required me to mull on them for a few days before I really got them. This was one of them. Values and incentives both drive human behavior, but they can get easily muddled if we're not careful.
Had a fantastic conversation with @jaltma - he has this rare ability to draw out what truly drives his guests. We went deep on my obsession: how evolutionary biology and generalized Darwinism can unlock new ways of understanding technology entrepreneurship youtu.be/vRiblwiXt-Q?si…

Successful agents are the result of collaboration between teams: engineering, operations, customer experience, and marketing. Yet every platform available today except Sierra forces businesses to optimize for one group over another. Our Agent OS enables both no code and…
The man is too humble to say it but everything @victoralazarte touches turns to gold. As a Founder, he scaled Wildlife Studios to 4B+ downloads. Bootstrapped. As an angel, he was the first ever investor in Brex (latest valuation $12.3BN) As a VC with @benchmark he led rounds…

Hardcore attitude has so many variants but often a consistent theme. it's people who care about a great outcome, aren't reticent to call out mediocre plans - at the end as builders we are all trying to improve the odds of success. The only way to do it is - have a clear outcome…
What I remember is that it also mentioned your “hardcore” attitude. Also that you joined in marketing and grew the entire team. Also that Larry Page signed off on every hire so it wa slow and hard. I worked at Google for 3 years too and I’m a bit embarrassed that I don’t know…

This is very, very good w/ @howietl. Provocative that the LLM could become a simple "tool" (especially w/ open source) & how its implemented around a data source could be most important. Do we need data structures under foundational LLMs? Or just LLM layers on databases?
