When someone dunks on your startup with an idiot hot take for clout... This is the correct reply

The future of marketing is psy-oping LLMs. In a few years most big purchasing decisions will be guided by AI assistants. This is scary — you have no idea what they’re saying about your product, and you have no way to change how they talk about you. We built Unusual to solve this problem. We’ve already shifted model’s perceptions of top startups from being flimsy to enterprise-ready, and have seen AI-driven leads skyrocket accordingly. Come work with us!

Excited to share that I've joined @FirstRound to invest in exceptional founders at the earliest stages of their journeys. 🚀 First Round backed some of my close friends last year (special thanks to @aditabrm for the introduction and @the_yuppy for the support), and it's been a joy to see the deep commitment and service they provide to their founders. Even though I'm only one day in, the intensity and care with which the team operates has been inspiring. I'm looking forward to working closely with and learning from @btrenchard, @brettberson, and the rest of the First Round team. It's a real privilege to be a part of such a storied firm, and it's an honor to work alongside visionaries at the most formative stages of company building who are fundamentally changing how we work and live. This new chapter builds upon almost two years at @NEA, where I had the opportunity to work with so many kind, humble, and high integrity people. I'm grateful to the NEA team for taking a bet on me and giving me the opportunity to learn the craft of venture and support some remarkable companies. To the founders I've worked with and those I've yet to meet - thank you for letting me be a part of your journey. 🙏

🚨 The Yemen groupchat fiasco is just the beginning. The next wave of national security leaks will be worse. Our digital infrastructure is not built for a world where: 1️⃣ Groupchats run everything. 2️⃣ AI reads, creates, and weaponizes their contents. It’s collapsing. That’s why we built Kibu. 🧵
