My predictions the AI game will be won by mobile platform owners (Google and Apple) and the one that will have a monopoly on automation lf enterprise processes ( Anthropic has a slight advantage). The new kid on the block, like Uber, will take 5-8 years to become a cash cow.
My AI predictions. In the next 1 to 3 years, Open AI or Anthropic, or both, fail / get acquired for a fraction of their current valuations. Microsoft, Google or a developer tooling company with access to lots of developers and source code like Sonar or JetBrains wins AI in software engineering. Probably with smaller, local, specialised models. Other domain specific companies spring up to win domains such as mathematics, legal, writing, etc. TL/DR: The technology isn’t going away, but the financial bubble will burst. What do you think?

Phil Collins fue el músico mejor pagado del mundo en los años 90, con una fortuna estimada en 150 millones de dólares. Pero su vida amorosa se convirtió en un agujero negro financiero. Su divorcio de su segunda esposa le costó 25 millones de libras, pero su tercera separación, de Orianne Cevey, fue catastrófica...tuvo que pagarle más de 100 millones de dólares. Ese acuerdo lo dejó prácticamente en la ruina, obligándolo a vender su legendario equipo de batería y parte de su colección de memorabilia solo para mantener su estilo de vida. Justo cuando intentaba reconstruirse, su cuerpo lo traicionó de la forma más cruel para un músico. Una grave neuropatía en los nervios de sus manos le impidió volver a sujetar las baquetas, destruyendo su identidad como baterista. A esto se sumó una vértebra dislocada en el cuello, múltiples cirugías de columna y una caída terrorífica que le provocó graves traumatismos craneales. El hombre que vendió 150 millones de discos ya no podía tocar su propio instrumento. Phil no se rindió, pero tuvo que aceptar una nueva realidad. Aprendió a cantar adaptándose al dolor físico, se alejó de los focos mediáticos y encontró una paz silenciosa lejos de los tabloides. Su historia es un recordatorio brutal de que la fama y el dinero pueden evaporarse en un juicio, y que la verdadera riqueza es la resiliencia para seguir cantando cuando te quitan la voz. ¿Alguna vez has tenido que reinventarte por completo cuando todo lo que habías construido se derrumbó?

Nasssim being humourous ♥️
I have never been a "rug merchant". Outside finance, the only physical merchandise I have ever sold was condoms in industrial quantities shipped to the bordello where his mother used to work --which, I admit, may not have been perfect.

Ai ate vc money 😂
🦔Andreessen Horowitz laid off most of its 34 person team that helps its startups recruit talent, Axios reports. The few who are left will move into individual investing groups like growth and crypto, and the firm declined to comment. My Take I think a16z is bracing for a tougher stretch. In the past week CoreWeave’s bonds hit distress levels, Firmus pulled its IPO, and Character AI filed for bankruptcy three years after a16z led its $150 million round at a $1 billion valuation. The biggest venture firm in tech no longer paying a central team to help its companies hire means it expects those companies to need fewer people, or to have less money to pay them. Venture firms collect management fees for years no matter what, so a cut like this usually reflects what they expect next. Some of it is AI taking over recruiting and the work itself, but I think most of it is money getting harder to raise for anyone outside the biggest AI labs. I expect more firms to quietly shrink their support staff over the next few months, and the startups that make it through will be the ones that can pay for their own hiring out of revenue.

Isn't this solved by agents for 200$/m?
Anthropic is offering a 145k salary for a personal assistant in London. Responsibilities include: "Scheduling and managing calendars for leader(s) and their organization" "Building and maintaining organizational systems for tracking and managing inbound requests" "Managing the leader's inbox and communications with precise attention to detail" "Handling travel logistics" Somebody should really build some sort of tech tool that can handle this stuff autonomously.

If you explained agriculture to folks in SF, you'd blow so many minds. It's... self-replicating, recursively self-improving nanotech for the physical world. And it's all open-source! One instance can turn into hundreds of seeds, that turn into hundreds of instances. Next thing you know you have trillions of them. It's super-exponential

Absolute chaos at the end of the Eternal derby between Hajduk and Dinamo. Pitch waterlogged making for an extraordinary end to the big Croatian showdown. Bodies flying around everywhere. Just look at the final moments 😳

we need to shut down AI until we figure out what the hell is happening with these Drake “where she at” videos

Security is not a data collection problem...
We urgently need more public traces of AI agents attacking and defending systems. Defenders can’t learn from what they can’t see. If you have traces and are being pressured to keep them private, my DMs are open. Let’s level the playing field and fight the asymmetry and lack of transparency in AI!
