There is much to celebrate today @instacart , so I thought I’d share a few defining moments since we launched 10 years ago. A thread 🧵.

Seems like if the model is trained on proprietary data, TOS should be protective. If your own sources are questionable, hard to point fingers. Detection & enforceability will likely remain a challenge for some time.

Should distilling a model be illegal? If it is, is it even enforceable?.

Deepseek is a big development but not surprising!. Solar: US invented but China is ahead.Mobile: US invented but China is ahead.EVs: US invented but China is ahead.BioTech: Historically US led but China is increasingly ahead. Need to change course if we want a diff outcome!.

Taking over Greenland sounds amazing. But why stop there? Why doesn't the US have presence in every continent?.

Excellent previously unseen (at least by me!) Steve Jobs talk. His ability to communicate a far out vision with such high precision while making it accessible to everyone is unlike anyone else. He predicts smartphones, street view, llms, blogs…in 1983! Must watch. Link below.

Such an insanely impressive demo by @OpenAI yesterday. What's perhaps even crazier is that all of this will be open sourced in under 12 months and be generally taken for granted by then. What a time to be working in tech!.

So what’s next? Bridge and Sunrise are going to be led by world-class leaders from the founding team. Bridge will be led by @keatonbedell and Sunrise will be led by Jacob Gilson. I will continue to support as a co-founder and advisor.

Secondly, we looked at how telehealth could help combat obesity, which is the root cause of so many serious conditions. By 2030, more than half of all adults in the US will be considered obese. This is a national epidemic.

So, we built @Use_Bridge – a one click checkout for health insurance. Bridge gives telehealth companies the ability to accept insurance within a matter of weeks. It will be launching with several pilot customers in the next few months.
