It’s been an incredible journey to get @HydraVentures_ off the ground with @pet3rpan_ @twoirtter @ReadyPlayerDC @larryflorio @pokiethepanda & many others - we are officially live with $10M to invest in and incubate the next generation of venture DAOs!.
We are proud to announce the summoning of Hydra Ventures, the first dedicated investment DAO fund of funds. With over $10m raised & ready to deploy, we're excited to back the next generation of early-stage investment DAOs.

My first post is a reflection on spending the better part of a decade in digital health and observing how full-stack startups like One Medical and Oscar performed, and how TechBIo might learn from this model with an evolution of "AI native" biotechs:

Started writing again over the last month on (Tech)Bio: how to learn from digital health’s mistakes, navigating the TechBio idea maze and why we don’t have medical breakthroughs anymore.

Fun look at the future of bio(hacking), AI x bio, supplements, Quantified Self 2.0, bio DAOs and more

An exploration of the future of Biohacking and self-directed science by Compound
Biohacking will change the world sooner that what people think 🌏. @CompoundVC we've dove deep into the space from working with companies to experimenting with products to engaging with different types of communities, and more. We've taken these learnings and done an in-depth

The Counting House, by Gary Sernovitz, is the best business fiction book I've read this year, perhaps alongside Situational Awareness, by @leopoldasch. If you read @matt_levine's Money Stuff and/or work anywhere near the investment industry you will probably enjoy it too.

I wonder what the best acquisition funnels are for consumer AI products? Many start with X (awareness), however app stores and token leaderboards like GPT Store (gated by $20/mo sub) & OpenRouter (some likelihood to pay) may drive a subset of high converting / monetizing traffic.

Big swing in AI x Bio by ARCH @ForesiteCapital @Lux_Capital on top of Baker Lab RFdiffusion protein design algos. For those wondering why Marc Tessier-Lavigne as CEO, check out this excellent 2023 fireside w/@rtnarch (tldr it has been a long courtship).
BREAKING: With over $1 billion & a star-studded cast, a new AI bio called Xaira Therapeutics is launching with massive ambitions to remake R&D, its leaders exclusively tell @RLCscienceboss and me. A lot to unpack in this scoop — read it only @endpts:.

I've seen the future at the @AGIHouseSF hyperstition hacknight w/ @NousResearch @karan4d @websim_ai @RobertHaisfield @infinitefun_ @Plinz across jailbroken LLMs, base model simulated worlds (in CLIs & web apps), theories of machine consciousness - lots of ideas to build on!.

Congrats to @vincentweisser @johannes_hage on the @PrimeIntellect fundraise, we're excited to partner with them via @metropolis_dao as they democratize access to AI development!.
Today, @johannes_hage and I are excited to introduce @primeintellect – democratizing AI development at scale, from compute to intelligence. We’ve raised $5.5m, led by @DistributedG @Coinfund_io @CompoundVC, @Collab_Currency @ProtocolLabs @ClementDelangue @dylan522p and others.

Check out @metropolis_dao member @ChrisF_0x 's insightful essay on the magic and potential of @websim_ai, a project that has captured our imagination over the last few weeks!.
In today's essay, we go 20 Minutes Into the Future and talk about @websim_ai 🧵.

So much fun jumping back into transformer fundamentals, especially after today's session with @_jasonwei on scaling / loss curves and @hwchung27 on generalization to remove bottlenecks. Definitely check out this class, thanks @stevenyfeng @DivGarg9 for leading this effort!.
We are bringing back Stanford's CS 25 Transformers Course ( for Spring 2024! This is one of @Stanford's hottest seminar courses. We are opening the course through Zoom to the public. Lectures start today (Thursdays), 4:30-5:50pm PDT, at

We were experimenting @agihouse_org w/ turning prompts into web apps (tic-tac-toe games, vegan restaurant locators) a year ago right after GPT-4 came out, now @websim_ai is able to do this by typing in any website name using Claude 3, creating a fascinating LLM game multiverse.
We built "Prompt to App", turning words into full-stack web apps using GPT-4, at the @agihouse_ai hackathon today! Fun to build this with @emmaytang Kartik Ramasamy Andrew Duberstein. Check it out soon 👀

this, but for memecoins.
looking to hire someone who can help us with a vercel/nextjs + generative UI project. there are 100k+ shapes today. all ugc. what if each shape had its own website. generated based on their personality. all hosted on custom subdomain:

going down a @websim_ai rabbithole, and mulling fun conjectures like your username is (probably?) injected as a personalization prompt to the Claude web app generations.

Who knew LLMs were the keys we needed to access the multiverse.
thanks to the back/fwd, refresh, and save features, websim is already a basic implementation of loom.websim will converge to a full implementation of loom, just as loom will converge to encapsulating websim.
