01 / evaluation
“Doing this without an AI agent or without AI in general is a pain in the butt because you must write an HTML parser for this email.”
02 / belief
“I think maybe before it was like, hey, we need to set up OAuth that humans only want to kind of do once.”
03 / observation
“The reason is because I have another assistant that also is recording and trying to come up with facts about me.”
04 / belief
“You've been in our orbit a few times. I think you spoke at our Latent Space anniversary.”
05 / evaluation
“I think the bar is it needs to be better than a human. And for most use cases we serve today, it is better than a human, especially if you put it on Rails.”
06 / belief
“I think that's the remarkable thing about what we're having right now. It's insane that these companies are routinely cutting their costs by two, four, five.”
07 / belief
“I think at this point, if you are in tech, especially in AI, but if you're in tech and you're not in San Francisco, you either lack judgment or you lack ambition.”
08 / belief
“I'm not optimistic on us actually patching OAuth. Because I agree with you, ultimately, we would want to patch OAuth because the new account thing is kind of a clutch.”
09 / uncertainty
“I don't know because I assume you're referring to I posted something about pronouns and how nonsense...”
10 / evaluation
“Was there kind of like a threshold of employees and team size where you felt like, okay, maybe that worked. Now it doesn't work anymore.”
11 / belief
“I think people read a little bit too much into that tweet. It went weirdly viral.”
12 / belief
“I think even the GPT store, in a way, like the way they architect it, for example, their plug-in systems are actually grateful because we can also use the plug-ins.”
13 / belief
“I think for people like you and me, because we sort of have a mental model, okay, when I type a prompt into this text box, this is what it's going to do, it's going to map it to this kind of data structure under the hood and so forth.”
14 / belief
“A solopreneur, you know, small business owners, I think Andrew is an exception. Yeah.”
15 / belief
“Look, when you're talking about modules and magnitude of differences in terms of performance and reliability, which is what we are talking about when we're talking about API use versus computer use, then you can't ignore that, right? And so I think we're going to be in an API use world for a while.”
16 / belief
“I think of it in terms of like jobs to be done and I think of it in terms of who is the Lindy serving.”
17 / belief
“I think the people that are in San Francisco that were here before, tech hated it and then there's kind of like this passed down thing.”
18 / belief
“Like you go to Amazon to search e-commerce, but otherwise you go through Google. And I think that the reason for that is because search in each vertical has more in common with search than it does with each vertical.”
19 / belief
“We did like a database query and we found, I think, like three or four other instances of it having happened before.”
20 / commitment
“I've always told myself I will stand up for what I think is right because some people got attacked and the way I was brought up is if someone gets attacked before you, you get involved.”
21 / evaluation
“Because there was a manifesto for responsible AI that hundreds of VCs and people signed and I don't think anybody actually thinks about it anymore.”
22 / prediction
“I think you're helping. Like, you're paving the road to AGI.”
23 / evaluation
“Because if you go from one building to two buildings, congrats, you're now remote from the other building.”
24 / disagreement
“There's an inconsistency in your statements because you simultaneously believe that AGI is very soon and you also say stakes are low.”
25 / evaluation
“The framing can be different if you were, so I think tinkerers has this connotation of not serious or like small.”
26 / evaluation
“I think that's good. I'll maybe carve out that I think the UK has done really well.”
27 / evaluation
“And eventually, you know, I started doing venture six, five years ago. And I think just like so many people in Europe reach out and ask, hey, can you like talk to our team and they just cannot comprehend like the risk appetite that people have here.”
28 / evaluation
“This is something I think about for AI engineering as well, which is the big labs want you to hand over everything in the prompts, and only code of English, and then the smaller brains, the GPU pours, always want to write more code to make things more deterministic and reliable and controllable.”
29 / recommendation
“One thing that just occurred to me, so I'm a big fan of virtual mailboxes. I recommend that everybody have a virtual mailbox.”
30 / evaluation
“When I tried to set up Slack, it was like, hey, give me access to all channels and everything, which for the average person probably makes sense because you don't want to re-prompt them every time you add new channels.”
