This is the first AI generated video that made me laugh out loud. "they are an absolute, unmitigated disaster".

Last time YC visited the Boston area, @snowmaker and @sdianahu dropped by MIT to do a talk. YC ended up funding 10% of the students who were in that room. We're coming back to Boston! . Join us for @startupschool East and early interviews for S24. Hope to see you there.
YC is coming to Boston!. Join us for Startup School East on April 20, and a day of YC interviews on April 21.

One cool thing about this RFS is that it lets you peek into the brains of the partners who wrote them. You can see what they're interested in, and how they think about the future:
ycombinator.com
Y Combinator is looking for startups working on these ideas. If you're working on something we're interested in, we'd love to hear from you.
The world is full of founders with expertise that could be tapped into something new and great. Our hope is that our Request for Startups (RFS) inspires some of those people to do so — or if they’re already building, to apply to YC.
