A good culture is mission fuel. Less distractions, more building.
It's good to have shocking rules that help your team form a culture that they're inspired by. Four we have at Coinbase: - No politics in the office - No starting committees without approval - All hires can be vetoed - Standardized decision making

Quietly, but steadily, OpenAI is advancing the state of the art in AI. Can you see this? The o3 model is amazing. And we just got it, what, seven weeks ago? Itโ€™s become my right hand really. It doesnโ€™t take over. I donโ€™t delegate. But itโ€™s the productive engine that provides structure, content, fodder, knowledge, options. ๐—•๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ต, ๐—ถ๐˜โ€™๐˜€ ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ฑ๐—น๐—ฒ. Introducing โ€œo3-pro.โ€ Last week OpenAI quietly flicked a switch that ChatGPT powerโ€‘users immediately noticed: "o1-pro" was gone. In its place? A new model called โ€œo3โ€‘pro.โ€ Itโ€™s the same โ€œreasoning-firstโ€ architecture as o3, but you get a lot more compute under the hood, a lot more intelligence. Hereโ€™s the catch: ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ธ๐—ฒ โ€œ๐—ด๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฏ ๐—ฎ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฒโ€ ๐˜€๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ฒ. Why the longer wait? o3 is given a lot more compute per query. It can pause, back-track, verify its steps. And it comes with the expected menu of capabilities; live web search, Python execution, file analysis, image understanding, longโ€‘term memory recall. In complex prompts it might be calling these tools hundreds of times, a far cry from the halcyon days of GPT 3.5! In head-to-head testing it beats o3 and o1-pro on math, science, programming, business writing and general QA. Quick highlights: โ€ข ๐—ฅ๐—ผ๐—น๐—น๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜: Pro and Team get first crack, Enterprise and API access following in days โ€ข ๐—–๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐˜‚๐˜๐—ฒ: Extra cycles per query give it time to backโ€‘track, verify its thinking โ€ข ๐—”๐—ฐ๐—ฐ๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐˜†: Outscores o3 and o1โ€‘pro across code, math, science, business writing โ€ข ๐—ง๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—น๐˜€: Ships with web search, Python, file & image analysis, longโ€‘term memory โ€ข ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด: Sits atโ€ฏ$20โ€ฏ/โ€ฏ$80 per million tokens, standard o3 dropped to $2โ€ฏ/โ€ฏ$8 โ€ข ๐—ฆ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ: Responses can take minutes; itโ€™s built for depth, not banter โ€ข ๐—–๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜๐—ฒ๐˜…๐˜: Loves complex prompts, treat it like a consultant, not a chat buddy โ€ข ๐—•๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ธ๐˜€: Hits new highs on math, science and coding leaderboards โ€ข ๐—ฆ๐˜‚๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—ถ๐—น๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†: Ideal for any task where correctness trumps latency โ€ข ๐—Ÿ๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€: No image gen yet, Canvas is absent, temporary chats disabled So, there you have it. o3-pro is basically saying, โ€œSure Iโ€™m slow, but Iโ€™m good!โ€ Iโ€™ll take it! I needed that coffee anyway! #discoverthefuture

Itโ€™s all connected. It may not seem like it is. But it is. The AI news pops every day and weโ€™re seeing it all in a blur; blockbuster deals, huge funding, shiny new apps, tools. But the deeper story is there hiding in plain sight. Hereโ€™s a flurry of events that transpired in just the last 24 hours: โ€ข IBM bought Seek AI and opened a Watsonx lab for data queries โ€ข Microsoft added free Sora video generation to Bing mobile โ€ข Character.AI launched AvatarFX video and social sharing โ€ข Meta targeted fully automated AI ad creation by 2026 โ€ข Creatify AI raised $15.5M for AI-made social video ads โ€ข Console netted $6.2M for an AI Slack help-desk bot โ€ข Google ships AI Edge Gallery and puts it on device โ€ข Snowflake acquired Crunchy Data to blend Postgres and AI โ€ข Muskโ€™s xAI chases a $113B valuation in new funding โ€ข Neuralink secures $650M, begins human brain-computer trials Just another AI day in 2025 right? Are there consistent through-lines? Perhaps. Theme 1: AI is embedding itself in the tools we already use Bing, Slack, Instagram, Snowflake, Android, Neuralink, none of these were โ€œAI products,โ€ but each one now has a intelligence under the hood. The common thread? Convenience: bring the intelligence to the workflow. The idea? Make the AI feel like a natural extension, not a separate destination. Theme 2: Generative tech is pushing the limits on modality Video clips from Sora, animated avatars from Character.AI, polished ads from Creatify, even signals straight from a neural implantโ€ฆ Every story shows AI crossing modalities. Why is this significant? The addressable surface for creativity becomes accessible to everyone. Theme 3: The distance between data, compute, and model is collapsing IBM snaps up a query engine, Snowflake folds in Postgres, Google packs models on-device. This convergence matters. Why? When inference happens next to the bits, product output feels immediate, and immediacy breeds trust. The wall between โ€œdatabaseโ€ and โ€œAI engineโ€ is crumbling fast. Theme 4: Mundane tasks are migrating from humans to machines Ad copy, campaign targeting, database wranglingโ€ฆ jobs once carried out by humans are now being shifted to AI. It's not about firing people; itโ€™s about raising the floor of what counts as baseline productivity. Humans are getting moved up the stack, towards judgment, relationship, oversight. Theme 5: Capital is pouring into โ€œintelligenceโ€ conduits that promise scale The numbers are stunning. $113Bfor xAI, $650M for Neuralink. But the logicโ€™s obvious. If youโ€™ve got the data, the talent, the compute, you can raise the capital. Investors canโ€™t risk missing out so theyโ€™re investing in optionality. โ€œMoney flows downhillโ€ โ€ฆ towards the momentum. Iโ€™m sure thereโ€™s a dozen other memes, themes, but the bottom line is, โ€œintelligenceโ€ is now becoming democratized. #discoverthefuture

There are moments in time that are pivots, doors that open, ๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜โ€™๐˜€ ๐—ด๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜‚๐˜€ ๐˜€๐—ผ ๐˜„๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—ด๐—ฒ๐˜ ๐—ฎ ๐—ด๐—น๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ณ๐˜‚๐˜๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฒ, innovation that changes the way we live, the way we move ahead, the way we think and operate. This was true in 1977. Sure, there were other โ€œpersonal computersโ€ that were around at the time. Radio Shack was pitching the TRS-80 and there was the Commodore PET and of course, the Atari 2600, all popular in their own way. And then there was the Apple II which debuted 48 years ago today. Now, it was priced dramatically higher than all of those above and yet it outsold them by a wide margin. One version with a whopping 48K of RAM sold for $2,638 ($๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฐ,๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฑ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—น๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜€), and if you needed a 143K floppy drive you had to fork over another $495.

It wasnโ€™t long before this interesting software #VisiCalc came along, a โ€œvisual calculatorโ€ (known to you as a spreadsheet). And then #WordStar for word processing and #dBase for databases. Suddenly, unbelievably, small businesses could perform financial analysis and create written documents and track customers in ways never before possible. They found it easily worth the investment. Somewhere between 5 and 6 million Apple II series computers would be sold before its end of life in 1993. What is todayโ€™s Apple II? #discoverthefuture

Your Best Ideas! Actually, your best ideas arenโ€™t always whatโ€™s needed. Sure, good ideas areโ€ฆ good.

Your ideas, your ingenuity, your values, your heart, might just come out, might just surprise everyone, including yourself. For example, take one Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Asked to compose a work to memorialize Russiaโ€™s victory over Napoleon, Tchaikovsky didnโ€™t feel much enthusiasm for the work, probably only agreeing to do it for the lucrative commission. ๐—•๐˜‚๐˜, ๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ท๐˜‚๐˜€๐˜ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ฑ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ธ. Only spending six weeks on the effort, he wasnโ€™t extremely proud of it, calling it โ€œvery loud and noisy.โ€ Noisy indeed. Featuring pealing church bells and exploding cannons, the public immediately loved it and its popularity has never waned. 134 years ago today in fact, Tchaikovsky conducted the work himself in a command performance for the opening of the brand new Carnegie Hall. And today the 1812 Overture is standard fare at most celebrations of American Independence. It's never been more popular in fact. ๐—ก๐—ผ๐˜ ๐—ฏ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐—ท๐˜‚๐˜€๐˜ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ธ. #discoverthefuture bit.ly/4k2MurR

I buy all my digital books from Amazon (doesnโ€™t everyone?). ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ถ๐—ณ ๐—”๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜‡๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—ผ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—บ๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ธ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ฏ๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—ธ ๐—ฎ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—ฒ๐˜…๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฎ ๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—œ ๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐˜† ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ? Maybe as part of my Kindle experience. Yes, of course, all permissions granted by the author and the publisher. Then I could talk to my book. Letโ€™s say itโ€™s Hard Times by Charles Dickens. I could ask it questions: โ€ข Remind me again, who is Thomas Gradgrind? โ€ข What exactly is Gradgrindโ€™s educational philosophy (โ€œfacts, facts, facts!โ€)? โ€ข Why did Louisa Gradgrind decide to marry Mr. Bounderby? Of course, the challenge is in the cost. ๐—ง๐—ผ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ปโ€™๐˜ ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ. You canโ€™t just buy a โ€œtalking bookโ€ and pay for it once. Every time you chatted with it, youโ€™re paying for tokens, thereโ€™d be a cost to Amazon that theyโ€™d need to pass on to you. Easy fix though. Talking books could be a monthly subscription fee right? Like Kindle Unlimited. That said, things might get tricky. You might just ask about the content. You might. ๐—ข๐—ฟ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—บ๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜ ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ธ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—พ๐˜‚๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€. โ€ข Does Dickens mock education unfairly? โ€ข Does Dickens romanticize poverty? โ€ข Are facts really the enemy? What do you think? Cool idea? Already being rolled out somewhere? What book would you choose first if you could talk to it? #discoverthefuture

Remember the world before HTTP? ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜? ๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ปโ€™๐˜? Thatโ€™s because a) that was such a long time ago b) itโ€™s an underlying protocol which we never notice c) it was essentially โ€œpre-webโ€, and who can remember that? Well, itโ€™s happening again. This time you get to experience it in real time. Introducing MCP. OK, ๐—ถ๐˜โ€™๐˜€ ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐˜† ๐˜๐—ผ๐—ผ ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—น๐˜† ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—ฎ ๐˜„๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฟ but if you were to handicap it, itโ€™s well on its way. MCP. What is it? Well Anthropicโ€™s calling it the "USB-C port for AI.โ€ Basically itโ€™s the protocol that hopes to standardize how AI systems (agents!) connect to outside data and tools and each other. Right now, integration's a bit of a mess. It is! ๐—Ÿ๐—ผ๐˜๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—ฐ๐˜‚๐˜€๐˜๐—ผ๐—บ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ, brittle non-standard connections, rework galore, ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ต๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐˜€ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—น.

Hereโ€™s Russian pianist, Elisey Mysin playing Mozart at just 6 years of age. This is absolutely mind blowing.
