A mic drop moment @ycombinator tonight
@sama just offered $2M in OpenAI tokens to EVERY YC startup in the current batch in exchange for equity
Just like Yuri Milner offering to invest in every startup back when Sam was a YC partner
I can't wait to see what's unlocked when you let the most driven, creative and formidable founders tokenmaxx
I’ve always believed the No.1 application of AI should be to improve human health.
That work started with AlphaFold, and now at @IsomorphicLabs with the mission to reimagine drug discovery and one day solve all disease!
We are turbocharging that goal with $2.1B in new funding.
It's an unimpressive-sounding word, but one of the most powerful motivations is the motivation of the hobbyist. That's what keeps successful founders working on their companies long past the point when they've made enough to quit. It's their beloved project.

Thanks @joshxhowie@GBNEWS for hosting Craic Founder Lu Jackson @langulin tonight, with comedy talents @scottcapurro@Kogie11.
#Comedy must have public funding • Talent wage stagnation must end • Live venues must have equal rates relief • Tax credits needed... and more 🌟
Proud to launch @CRAFT_CIO (UK Comedy Body) launched as a response to the lack of institutional funding and support for comedy and provides the infrastructure, policy representation, and professional support long afforded to other industries, including music, theatre, and sport.
