a startup exists because they say “hey i think the world is much different than how you think it is, incumbent” the only reason a startup must gracefully accept defeat is if their core truth about the perceived state of the world is wrong. everything else is skill issue.

I think the most clever thing to do right now is watch how teens use ChatGPT vs the fringe business use-cases tech people use it for. The emergent use cases from technology often come the people who (1) have a lot of time and (2) must outsmart authority for freedom.

we are building ai with social intelligence. its never been done before. and it is impossible to do it without also having a product that’s a network of social agents. being a friend integral to ur friend groups is the ultimate social agent. the network effects are insane.

if you're good at ML engineering or product-focused engineering, i’d love to chat. former founders generally "get it", and are good generalists, but if you think you'd be a good fit, please reach out anyways. if you're the right fit, we're very generous with equity and pay.

tl;dr we let users create their own aligned ai — through rlhf and conversations across social platforms (discord, txt, imsg etc…) over last 3 months, we’ve grown from 500 to 5000 of these active ai models. so so so much work still to do in reducing this friction.
