If it is a billion dollar market, SpaceX will do it itself. Build vs. buy, full stack.
@CathieDWood A major additional factor should be considered. Satellites with localized AI compute, where just the results are beamed back from low-latency, sun-synchronous orbit, will be the lowest cost way to generate AI bitstreams in <3 years. And by far the fastest way to scale within 4

We humans are going to have more style than those machines. Unique breaths and takes and ranges. Depth in the systems we think and are inspired by. Take nature for example. You can think in fractals, in moss, in math, and in biology. The way you combine these systems - in

Too many techbio companies focus too early on their own assets, making it hard to truly invest in the platform that makes them special. Nabla shows a better way -- start with revenue generating partnerships, then vertically integrate over time.
Today we're announcing a second, larger collaboration with @TakedaPharma — deploying our integrated AI + wet-lab platform broadly across their portfolio to design antibodies, multispecifics, and other next-generation biologics. It’s been incredibly fun working with the Takeda

Love this so much. Reminds me of what @ceeceeboom has done with Boom Collectives but more structured.
Ambition is social. And unlocking breakthroughs requires exceptional talent willing to think differently. Which is why we want to bring more peer groups for ambitious, counterintuitive thinking into existence. Today we're launching a call for @ARIA_research Innovator Circles🧵

Obsessive, mission-driven and delusional - those who stop at nothing until the mission is accomplished.
The idea of convincing people to become entrepreneurs is ridiculous. If you need to be convinced, you shouldn’t do it. Starting a company is totally irrational—you need to be obsessed and committed to a painful, decade-long grind. Most people are better off as employees.

About 10 years ago, I met the Apple engineer who helped integrate the Cherokee language into the iPhone and iPod OS in partnership with the Cherokee Nation. Who was this? Are you out there?

In the VC returns context, it's not how much capital you loose but how much you make. The first seven years as an allocator I was obsessed that we had 0% mortality in the portfolio at Boom. Perfection is the wrong metric. It's the obsession with exponential.
People start by being nervous about ways they can lose before they get interested in ways they can win. More often than not, that fear response is overblown because society fails to teach us how to evaluate risk.

How did it take me this long to discover My Neighbor Totoro? A gentle masterpiece, only visible if you know how to look. 🌱✨

It’s kind of interesting, but in some ways AI is making CS much more like biology. We can observe and tweak what it does, but we really don’t know how it’s doing it. A science and engineering discipline rooted in empiricism over theory. I wonder if this trend continues.
