London looking to figure how to respond to the rise of AI and its inherent risks and effects on jobs in the capital. Oh, and, “There will also be free AI training for Londoners.”

A founder should go through the full cycle before they even consider changing course. Most people mistake friction for a dead end. They encounter resistance, assume the market has spoken, and abandon ship. In reality, they haven't tested their idea—they have only tested their

This was one of my fav stories as a boy. "Within weeks, the U.S. Navy ordered more ironclads. Britain halted construction of wooden warships. The age of sail and timber had ended in a morning. The age of steel and steam had dawned."
It took a disgraced inventor, a politically adept financier, and a bureaucrat willing to risk his career to build the Union's first ironclad and avert catastrophe at the Battle of Hampton Roads. Today's installment of Heretics and Heroes tells the story of the unlikely team that

As a Texan, I can attest 👇
We’ve recently opened an office in Austin Texas. From the data I’ve seen average salaries in Austin about 25-50% higher than London, rent is about 30% lower for the same type of apartment and taxes are 50% lower than the UK. Plus you can live within 20 mins of the city in a

Starship really is that spacious... I've climbed through the mockup. Skylab comparison below. We can now establish a permanent human presence on the moon. Imagine seeing their lights from Earth each night... inspiring our spacefaring dreams. Ad Lunae 🌖 That's Latin for LFG!
Going for a spin in Skylab, 1973. 🚀 Starship is 36% wider, affording a 85% larger play area. The mockups of the living quarters at Starbase make me lean back… and dream of space exploration.

One of the boldest founders and companies on the planet. Proud that @krishnav and we at Crane have been investors from the beginning. Congrats to James and everyone at CoMind ❤️
We're excited to announce that CoMind has secured $102.5 million in funding to help us redefine how we monitor and treat the brain. For decades, doctors treating critically ill patients have been forced to compromise when monitoring the brain: use risky, expensive, highly
