In which fraser and I really take to heart, "things we are actually talking about in the hallways". I got a little excited about my backpack, which, no really, it's the best. open.spotify.com/episode/2nzyBm…

Surprisingly, could not find a single AI tool that could do this relatively basic research task. (1) Search YouTube for videos on topic X (2) Identify top 10 most viewed on topic X (3) Identify the YouTube channel associated, and the total number of subscribers (4) Calculate

Started as a thought experiment: what if AI could help manage our impractical idea for a new kind of place for playing board games in Berkeley? Probability of success: murky. Hours available: minimal. Of course AI was like "that's a great idea" 🫣 So me, Andrew Mason and a

Honestly, Granola is one of the best AI tools out there. I forget absolutely everything, so having it take notes during calls and meetings and store them for later is genuinely life-changing 😁

I don't know what your inboxes look like, but the AI writers have rendered my inbox remarkably useless at this point. What are folks using? Feels like we need a new Postini for this era.

I’m in Gaza today visiting our @wckitchen team. I see so much courage in their faces, serving hope in the face of so much pain. Our kitchens are cooking, our fires are lit…but we must do more to help the families that are starving. WCK is prepared to scale to 1 million meals
