The state of VC in 2025. Where we are, where we are going, and where to invest .

Guys i figured out the practical use for AI robots without hands - TVs that follow you around the house. what people really want AI for . insta $10b company

One thing I learned from brad pitt is that exert dominance in a meeting, make sure to be eating while you talk, the bigger and sloppier the better -- . also sometimes I get hungry.

this video - . the book is fish that ate the whale and it is great (this is the least interesting part of the book!).

Plastic Surgery ‘American Dream Beauty’ is Good, Natural Genetic Beauty is Bad. Understanding the Outrage re: ‘Genes’ vs. Filters & Ozempic in 2025 America as fear around ‘can you be whomever you want to be’

Speaking of buying radio stations and putting on an AI host 24/7 . time to rewatch

It is pretty wild how OpenAI nails this prompt consistenly for lettermeme when done through ChatGPT but just totally fails with Dall-E directly. I am very curious how the balance between apps vs. apis is going to evolve in the AI space.

Lettermeme today - lol

Understanding the Figma IPO, is "SaaS Back”? No.

good news. found some!.

All of a sudden I am wondering if any of the random VCs I invested in have a piece of that sweet sweet figma equity :).

we saw this in how people worried about early deep-fake-obamas vs. what is really playing out

In the broadcast era, the 'war of the worlds' scary issue was people trusted what they heard on radio too much. in AI-internet era the problem is the opposite / inversion -- which is people now trust nothing.

So the question we land on is how to market this podcast for maximum outrage. is it my 'wifebeater' . 'robots without hands', or some awful intersection of both!

It is particularly interesting the nuance of the sidney sweeny outrage talk track. culturally Kardashian beauty through plastic surgery (accessible to all) is OK. but Sweeny natural genetic beauty (not accessible) is forbidden. (2/4)

This week's more or less is all about outrage marketing. the key to modern marketing is to enlist free distribution from people prone to outrage that you don't care about (1/4)

At a certain point it feels like these AIs are running the nigerian prince scam, and sending stuff so intentionally wrong and ridiculous they are screening for the dumbest of the dumb to scam.

i.e. GROK radio would kill :) just saying.

RFF - time to buy FM radio stations and run with AI character hosts
