Took @VictorTaelin’s awesome experiments around compressing GPT prompts and built CompressGPT. A one-line change in your @LangChainAI code => 70% token usage deduction! https://t.co/P3wuFEb2P2

Use CompressGPT to reduce your GPT-4 token usage by up to 70% with 1 line

Really excited to announce Root Ventures Fund 4, our new $190M seed fund supporting technical founders working on hard problems with up to $5M at any stage with “seed” in the title. We are so grateful to @EricNewcomer for perfectly capturing our vibe in his article below: 👇

We have a new coffee grinder (and $190M fund). I rebuilt the electronics to add grind-by-weight and Wifi/BLE. The firmware is also running a server to announce our new fund: https://t.co/J7fiXQ10ZS ☕️🚀🤑

since ppl keep tagging me - it's clear the market has a latent desire for this "future slack." it's a tough problem bc it won’t look like anything we have today we're working hard, iterating patiently, and are constantly looking for the right ppl to join Ando. DM if you're eager
Sam Altman says Slack has many positives, but it creates endless fake work We need an AI-native productivity suite to replace docs, slides, email, and Slack Not add-on features, but trusted agents that handle work and only escalate when needed This finally feels within reach

What caused the AWS outage that felt like it took down half the internet on Monday? It started with a race condition in DynamoDB's DNS propagation, which ended up setting the dynamod.us-east-1 .amazonaws .com DNS to empty. A deepdive and more details: https://t.co/tatCtKPnxS

I'm teaming up with @samuel_colvin to launch a new meetup series, Py AI. Our first one is November 11 in San Francisco with talks from @pydantic, @modal, @reductoai and @fastmcp. Hosted by our friends at @pebble_bed. Link to join below!

Kind of mad seeing AMD using @pydantic Logfire to demo the performance of open models on their hardware at Pytorch today. The future is Pydantic.
Great demo at @PyTorch Conference today. The @AMD stand showcased #logfire spans in their multi-agent-nutrition system. Always happy to see the community using our #observability tool. #PyTorch #pydantic #MLOps #ai

For as long as humans have had children, we’ve hoped and prayed they’d be healthy. For the first time in history, we can do more than hope. @OrchidInc gives parents knowledge before life begins… a chance to build the healthiest future possible. Fast Company just told our

The best part about working on @modal is watching our customers literally build the future. Today, they’re using @modal for everything from generating AI music to powering real-world robots to curing cancer. And yet, this is just the beginning. We have so much more to build.
It's true – @modal has raised a $87M Series B at a $1.1B valuation to advance the future of AI infrastructure. Thank you to @Lux_Capital, @Redpoint, @AmplifyPartners, and others. Now more than ever, AI demands a complete reinvention of traditional compute infrastructure

Will you have an average baby or a superbaby? Last week in SF, we threw a party to celebrate the first generation of @OrchidInc superbabies (real children whose parents gave them the healthiest possible start by screening their DNA as embryos!) Then we sat down to record a

talked to another great team today who ripped out their ai framework the story is the same every time -- most of the value of an abstraction is abstracting across LLMs the rest eventually weighs you down
