People always asked how we bootstrapped so well. Code it yourself and sell it yourself to the right channels. Strong margins. Ignore hype. Ignore non customer engagements.

Last night, got to hear AI generated music played by a live orchestra. Not too worried about AI taking over, but really inspired by how it’s making musicians more productive.

Thanks to @blackgirlbytes for having us on @GitHub #StartItUpWednesday to share @DataGovs API. We talked on a few things including: ✅ Data Integrity in the age of #AI and #LLMs 🚀 Building scalable tech biz without VC as minorities 📦 How devs biz use our compliance API

Good meeting the Data Skills for Congress Cohort at Open Gov Hub. The project(s) and work reminded me of all the opportunities in data today.

Nothing like 100s of data practioners in a room talking about problems, approaches, and solutions. 🔢 Not surprised, but data governance/access control is still hot in the sea of #GenAI and #LLM use cases. At least that's what I heard a lot of.

🤏🏾 30 data analysts in the room tonight. Look forward to discussing Open Data to meet GPT use cases. 250,000 datasets later.

👋🏾 Will anyone be in DC at #CFASummit2023? https://t.co/67V1ENsRFC

☁️ Lots of minds executing on data, analytics and AI.

🎉 10 years, since the executive order to make open data & machine readable the new default in the U.S. In the age of easy AI integration, I can't wait to see how people continue to build services on top of these publicly available datasets (e.g. Google Maps / GTFS).

🗺️ If you are on a data team, it helps if you map out all the steps/tools you are using. Surprisingly many might not know where or who has access to data.

🤏🏾 Hosting groups of data analysts and engineers in our office to just hack on Open Data & Open Models. We're seeing that in down markets folks want to bring the best skills and problem solving skills back to work.

Losing track of all the LLMs? 💻 a map by Stanford organizes them via table and graph. 🤔 Now we need a pick your model tool to deploy and test

My side work-related project this weekend, "How can you turn LLM-powered text prompts into SQL queries with open data?"

🔌 In June, we're hosting in our office a Cannabis Social Equity + Tech program w/ Maryland's Dispensary Association. 📧 If you know biz owners expanding in this market from a brand, retail, or vendor role. My DMs are open. https://t.co/jFnAvRERTK
