Austin charges $64.10/month for a 96g trash bin. I could do it, far more sustainably, for <$30/month. This would save Austin taxpayers $50,000,000+/year, $210/household

I see a lot of people building and funding point-in-time businesses. Things that could exist today, but could easily (and likely will) be wiped out tomorrow. The largest businesses built at this point, excluding frontier labs, will be those that utilize software as a means, not sell it as an end product. Further, many industries absolutely must be rebuilt from scratch to meaningfully introduce these technologies, representing massive opportunity—far greater than selling saas into them. This should excite you! More, larger opportunities than ever before, but be careful to work on something meaningful, and do not be afraid to go big.

I use this OpenAI post as a single datapoint, but the writing is on the wall for far more than just legal work

I care deeply that America continues to be exceptional.

Monopoly’s turn into some very interesting r&d…
Introducing a complete map of the male fruit fly brain and central nervous system, created in partnership with @HHMIJanelia. With over 166,000 neurons, this is the largest cellular brain map to date. Learn more: goo.gle/4qQTtIW

Allowing people to train their own policies, like microduck, would progress this space much faster
Today, Figure is partnering with Nscale to deploy up to 100,000 GPUs on the NVIDIA Vera Rubin Platform We're committing $3.5 billion initially, with plans to scale beyond $6 billion To ship a robot into every home, we need a massive amount of compute

The moat stands in deployment and building economies of scale, wide open market…
The influx of FSD software has started. It’s a commodity - like sat/nav - within 5 years.

YOU can be an outlier, just do something well

Self driving vehicles will be everywhere in <2 years
Today, we’re launching Alpamayo 2 Super, our frontier open reasoning model for autonomous vehicles. Beyond seeing, Alpamayo understands and reasons through the complex world - thinks before it acts. It’s a powerful backbone for robotaxis, trucks, shuttles, delivery vans, tractors and the long tail of mobile robots—billions of autonomous machines someday. We’re releasing it for commercial use under OpenMDW-1.1 so teams can inspect it, fine-tune it and deploy it—open models advance safety and security. The next wave of AI is robotics—and it starts with autonomous vehicles. Great work, Alpamayo team! blogs.nvidia.com/blog/alpama…

People often forget that software is a means to an end. Focus on the real problem.

The work that Nvidia is doing on physical ai is widely under appreciated. Excited to see where things can go!

I plan to live to see the 500th anniversary as well
