Imagine creating games like GTA or Sims using a simple prompt. Peggy Wang and @simulacronist are super impressive and have built an AI engine where you can generate your own fully formed AI NPCs and 3D worlds. Proud to be an angel investor in ego ⚡️

Michael stands out as one of the most genuine people I've met in SF. Excited for him to change our beautiful city for the better! Michael Lai 赖天宸

Spending time with Mike at Floodgate fundamentally changed the way I think. Saw some early drafts and I know this will be a spectacular read — if you read one startup book this year, this has to be the one! 👇

Started a new internship and generative AI has completely taken over my onboarding process. Chatbots everywhere, with very few human 1:1s: - Glean for general onboarding questions - In-house AI chatbot that helps with institutional technical data query knowledge - AI coding

Hosted a curated "bouquets & brunch" for early stage female founders this weekend with Nicole Seah 🌸 If you're a female founder building in AI or SaaS in SF, let's hang out!

It's finally out! This is a must read if you're even remotely interested in starting a company. Working closely with the legendary Mike Maples, Jr has shown me what true genius and compassion looks like in VC. Grateful to have seen this come to life over weekly reading sessions!

After using & building RAG search every day this summer (for work docs, data, messages, etc), it feels *jarring* to not talk to most websites and personal docs. Custom search is one of the few addicting behavior changes from AI that's upgraded my life — wish it were everywhere!

We need more philosophers in AI. When I studied symbolic systems at Stanford, I learned about AGI from a different lens: - Finite automata vs consciousness - Turing completeness (minds and machines) - Consciousness as “I think, therefore I am” In certain schools of philosophy,

The Harvard/MIT startup scene is absolutely cracked. Cursor, @cognition, Mercor, Etched all founded by recent grads/dropouts The energy here feels different: no virtue signaling, just insane heads-down building every weekend 😤

Let’s go Tanay Kothari 🚀

Really enjoyed this piece by Linus on 'AI is the new plastic'. It's powerful to think the next AI unlock will come from exploring new human-AI interaction interfaces and sculpting them into our daily lives.

I’ve joined the research team OpenAI as a technical PM! After a few months, it’s clear this place is special: - Culture feels like a 24/7 hackathon with high agency people - Everyone seeks the truth over comfort together - Tiny teams ship big breakthroughs; you can just own

GPT-5 is cracked. Since I've started using it, it's changed 70% of what I do. Coding, searching, writing all feel like coordination problems now. I just yap to the machine all the time, at work and at home
