Really interesting article with practical examples exploring how ~ChatGPT can play the role of a startup co-founder / advisor.
Including writing the code for your Minimum Viable Product 😅

Given that powerful LLMs are here and available to billions of people, discussions about AI shouldn’t always be theoretical
We need to be asking very pragmatic questions about AI: When is using AI better than having no human help at all? When is it worse? oneusefulthing.org/p/the-bes…

Brilliant founder hack for helping other founders with their fundraising. Just had a founder include 3 founders that are raising in an investor update.
Perfect captive audience ✔️

If you are at a Venture Capital firm and you're not supporting @INCLUDED_VC (the Fellowship for individuals from diverse communities, providing access, opportunity and knowledge into the world of VC) then you either haven't heard of them or ought to reconsider and step up 🇬🇧 🌎

I’m excited to be featured in @WomenInTechShow hosted by @WeAreLATech's @EspreeDevora.
The purpose of the show is for every listener to walk away feeling 'If She Can Do It So Can I'.
Espree calls it "actionable empowerment".

Your startup idea probably isn’t venture-scale.
And that's OK.

There has never been a better time to raise a small round from @calmfund for the founders to focus, use AI-assisted coding to build a killer product with a small team, get to customer revenue quickly and never have to raise again.

Female-led syndicates on Odin invest 75% of their capital in female or mixed teams. Male-led syndicates? Just 24%.
Here’s some other interesting data from the 200 companies backed on Odin in 2022..
