What are we interested in @usv? Programmable intelligence (AI/Robotics) Programmable energy Programmable molecules (bio & the underlying software) Programmable money (crypto)
Crypto, Energy, Bio, and AI + Robotics. Those forces are our focus right now.
Memory needs a rebel alliance Last week we wrote about the risks of centralizing our digital memory. Today's follow-up blog explores the ecosystem of startups building a different future where you control your own data and memory @usv @buildexante @zweinberg + matt hawes
Almost 5 million scientific papers will be published this year, but most will never be read. Not because they don't matter, but because they're buried. Consensus is the AI research stack. Search, reason, and reference in one tool.
Introducing: Consensus Deep Search 🔬 Deep Search is a research agent that conducts literature reviews across 200M academic papers in two minutes.
Who will own our digital memory? As AI platforms ask us to entrust our memories to them, we risk endless reintroductions to every AI or (worse) seeing our digital selves held hostage by a single AI overlord.. 1st in a 2-part blog series up now on building an open architecture…
Awesome moment for @RadiantNuclear and the progression of new forms of scalable energy
Want to see pure joy? Watch the moment @DougBernauer and Tori Shivanandan tell the team that @ENERGY selected Radiant to be the first new nuclear reactor to test next year at INL!

Haven’t been to an event this exciting in a long time… 🗽Biohacking Demo Day 2.0: @usv x @CompoundVC in NYC The future is here, you just have to go out and build it. Thanks for organising @shelbynewsad @matthewjmandel 🧬🚀
I think (in a perfect world) the user owns their data and grants AIs temporary license to use it to the user's benefit. @DoctronicAI - we safely aggregate your medical data but it's yours to take elsewhere and/or remove from our system. For foundational models that's harder...…
The most powerful AI systems don’t just respond. They remember, adapt, and shape decisions over time. The real question we keep coming back to isn’t how they work, but who owns the memory they build. x.com/usvlibrarian/s…
Our biohacking demo days (weird and live demos only!) are some of the best find the edge and stretch the mind days around @usv. We’re doing another one-check it out if you wanna come.
This will be an incredible event! Link below if you're interested in attending
In our view, every generation gets a window. A moment when something strange, unformed, and full of possibility arrives. The market is now ripe for imagination. Creativity is the new compute. The consumer layer remains wide open. Join us on June 26th! humansintheloop2025.com
We're co-hosting a new, first-of-its-kind event to celebrate the momentum and creativity in early-stage Consumer AI. Join us on June 26th! humansintheloop2025.com
Consumer AI is about to make things weird and fun--the current constraint is imagination, not ability, and we're so ready to see what unfolds. Come join us @usv and a host of other friends (@ForerunnerVC @sequoia @ThriveCapital @GreylockVC @SusaVentures @Adverbvc…
Full house - absolute packed + standing room - for AI and Healthcare panel @2048vc x @usv #NYTechWeek
Today, we're beginning a new era at Sora. We're now powering public schools. Read more about this and our first partnership here: soraschools.com/partner/tca
My high school sent out an email today saying that my favorite teacher died. He was my 9th grade math teacher and he convinced me that I was good at math after always believing I wasn’t. He was also just an awesome guy. He was good at teaching the content but even better at…
Professor Wenger days are the best days @usv
