Technology is at its best when we combine our HUMAN superpowers (creativity & ingenuity, empathy & EQ, trust & connection, etc.) with MACHINE superpowers (accuracy & precision, speed & efficiency, predictability & reliability, etc.) 10/

So while the venture market is forward investing and overvaluing most of the AI-native ecosystem that is still in its infancy, I believe we’re in the early innings of one of the largest value creation events the startup / tech ecosystem has ever seen. 9/

The current wave of AI has the potential to liberate us from many of the mundane tasks we’ve become accustomed to and instead allow us to work alongside technology in a more symbiotic relationship. 7/

The "software-eating-the-world" phenomenon has, in many ways, made us subservient to technology. We spend much of our time entering data into systems, reading / responding to emails, searching the web for information, coding software, etc. But I see a way out. 6/

For startups and other participants in the tech ecosystem, I see a generational opportunity to combine the collective strengths of AI models alongside the uniquely human traits we possess to create new categories of businesses and reinvent age-old industries. 5/

While AI is often portrayed as a threat, I believe this moment instead presents an opportunity for us to gain control back from the technology we’ve created and harness its power for a positive impact on humans and our society. 4/

In parallel, there is a much broader societal debate happening both inside and outside of the tech community on the rise of AI being good vs. bad for us all as humans. 3/

As we enter 2025, the venture market presents a striking dichotomy: soaring valuations for hot AI companies vs. a highly challenged environment for everyone else, igniting debate around whether AI is fueling yet another bubble, and if so, to what extent. 2/

In my investment themes for 2025, I explore the dichotomy of the AI venture market vs. everything else, human vs. machine superpowers, and why I am more optimistic than ever before about human-machine symbiosis. 1/ https://t.co/3TrtYzHNnN

My brother @NateBoyer37 recently ran the Leadville 100, a 100-mile race up to 12,600 feet in CO. “Focus on what you can do in these next few steps,” Boyer had said. “The mountain won’t look like it’s getting any closer if you keep looking at it.” https://t.co/l5z2KuNyPm

Two former pro football players entered the Leadville Trail 100-mile race, a grueling slog over Colorado peaks. They were used to challenges, but this was a new kind of pain.
