With both LLMs and autonomous vehicles looking like there will be a ton of competition and cheap options in the near future, we're going to see consumer surplus unlike anything we've seen in decades.

AI is creating a lot of things that aren't real, including the supposed spike in zero days.

Cybersecurity is a land value tax on digital real estate
Some good and appropriate data:

There's a PE-backed roofing platform that has a landing page on it's website to invest in the platform. You'd expect that with some crypto scam, but this is an institutional group. Must work!

Bay Area worse or better than NYC?

I've worked with two of the four utilities that met with Sam, and it would be very interesting to know who was at the table. Was it the CEO, the named CISO, the actual CISO or someone else? Having attended EEI events, I'm sure nothing substantial was committed to, but even the optics of this must piss off a lot of good and hard working cyber OT people.

It's going to be crazy when Bending Spoons acquires Mistral for 10% of peak valuation

If your economic model can't account for why this exists, you're not going to correctly predict how AI will effect growth and productivity

Tried to snooze all the garbage topics in my feed for a day, but now it's just second level references to AI (Navier-stokes, agentic behavior, Anthropic whistleblower) without the original posts.

One reason is that after automating and outsourcing many tasks, what is left is mostly coordination work. That is persuasion, alignment, compromise and trust (PACT) work.
Not enough people are seriously trying to reconcile the two facts: - models can now resolve Millennium Problems - annualized US GDP growth is at 1.5%

Curious how this has been true for every past technology shift too: - mechanical revolution : printing press/pamphlet war - steam : newspapers/yellow journalism - chemical : magazines/tabloids - electricity : radio/panic broadcast - digital : internet/clickbait
It’s really a shame that the most interesting technological change in the past 100 years is happening at a time when society is built around maximally optimizing engagement bait.

Replying to @a16z
You really really should read this: rootevidence.com/resources/w… It fully refutes, with data, the entire premise of the chart. Charting the delays between an exploit being utilized and NVD publishing has nothing at all to do with when they were patched.

It's crazy that 30 years ago being called "a product manger" was a burn on par with saying "you suck"

"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." This phrase is deeply ingrained in the startup community, and there are two ways to read it: 1. Wow! Magic, so incredible. I can't believe it! 2. Wow... A magic trick. I don't believe it. When people in cybersecurity say, "AI enabled attacks aren't magic," they mean it's a trick. You just have to understand how cybersecurity works to be in on the trick.
