The only thing worse than having the CEO knee-deep in building stuff with AI is not having the CEO knee-deep in building stuff with AI.

I just gave the CEO write access to the GitHub repos and I am both excited and terrified

Eric Schmidt says intelligence is about to decouple from us. “The computers are now doing self-improvement.. They don’t have to listen to us anymore.” Within six years: a mind smarter than the sum of humans -- scaled, recursive, free. We have no language for what’s coming.

"We're entering a world where humans have a partner smarter than all of us." Eric Schmidt says China could unleash AI-powered drones, zero-day cyberweapons, and engineered biological threats—faster than we can defend. We’re not ready. And they might get there first.

Ilya on LLMs understanding the world: "Predicting the next token well, means that you understand the underlying reality that let to the creation of that token" Seem like the opposite view of Yann.

🚨NEW: Marc Andreessen breaks down how the University scam works and how they misappropriate taxpayer money. "There is a government supported and funded cartel that doesn't allow new entrants to get access to Federal money. They must be allowed to fail."

Jensen Huang's Advice for Students‼️

Today I was sent the following cool demo: Two AI agents on a phone call realize they’re both AI and switch to a superior audio signal ggwave

Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis says their AlphaFold AI system has performed a billion years of PhD work and they will have their first drugs in the clinic by the end of the year, with cancer, heart disease and neurodegenerative diseases on the list of targets

among the most interesting things over the last few years to me is how much leverage i get just due to being good at prompts it feels weird to get such strong returns from something of this nature, but still so few seem to really explore novel prompting techniques

in a world of AI agents, the age of the Engineer is over. the time of the Idea Guy has come.

This is how you eliminate Self-doubt‼️

Jensen Huang on Elon and xAI building the fastest supercomputer on the planet in nineteen days. Pretty insane.

I just published a new tutorial on how to build a directory using AI and no-code tools. Directories are the ultimate MVP. They let you validate an idea, build traffic, and then pivot into something bigger—like SaaS or a marketplace. Remember when Yahoo and DMOZ ruled the internet? Okay, maybe you don’t, but they did. They curated the web back when search engines were clunky and unreliable. Fast forward to today—directories are making a quiet comeback. And it’s not about nostalgia. The 5 step playbook that we go through: 1. Niche first, features later Use Google Keyword Planner to find high-volume, low-competition keywords. Lock in a matching domain. 2. Build fast No-code tools AI = rapid setup. Let AI generate the initial content and structure for you. 3. Promote smart Share on Reddit, list your directory in other directories, and engage on Twitter. 4. SEO from day one Start with 10 high-quality articles and solid internal linking. 5. Monetize as you grow Affiliate links, premium listings, B2B sponsorships. It’s all on the table. A directory can be a side hustle that pulls in $5K MRR. Then, once you’ve got traffic, you can scale into SaaS or a marketplace. It literallyyyyy pays to have traffic for your software startup. Why aren’t more people talking about this? Huge shoutout to @johnrushx for giving us a free masterclass on this exact strategy. Legend. You’ll want to watch to this episode on directories. youtube.com/watch?v=hPveUtta… I respond to all comments and appreciate them. Audio is over here if you prefer listening: open.spotify.com/episode/53m… podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas… Directories are cool - it’s the perfect foundation for something much bigger. Was this interesting? Well, reply to me with if it was and what you'd like to learn next on The Startup ideas Podcast. People like to gate this type of content. I won't. I live to serve and will continue sharing this info for free.

CaseText is one of the first vertical AI agents to be deployed at scale. It's an AI legal analyst used by thousands of lawyers. Oh, and it was bought for $650M just 2 months after launch. Here's @Jacob_Heller's playbook for building vertical AI agents that actually work:

A friend in the AI business estimated that the price/performance of AI had decreased by about 100x in each of the past 2 years. 10,000x in 2 years. I don't think any technology has improved so fast in my lifetime. And this is very general-purpose technology too.
