I have given up on AI and just led a $700M round into this company:

1. 19yo Harvard Econ student Wesley Wang spends 2+ years on a short film

2. Posts the 12-min video on YouTube in Sept

3. Darren Aronofsky watches it in Oct and emails him “watched your film, can you drop out of Harvard?”

4. TriStar buy rights and Wang will adapt for big screen

10/10 product & marketing

Moderna has deployed 400 GPTs for things like contract checking & research.

I spoke to a couple other Fortune 1000 firms that have also deployed GPTs internally. I am actually a bit surprised at how much internal experimentation is happening.

Still one of my favorite pieces of copy on the internet.

Strong hook, high specificity, feels like a screenplay, makes the reader feel trust/belonging.

Great time for it.

Morning are so the best.

I just interviewed a guy who left consulting to buy a $1.2M ice cream shop.

Last month alone, he grew it by 25%.

This is his story:

My heart is broken for the WCK team. Have had the privilege of working with them for years, including numerous kitchens at the US/Mexico border. Thinking of all their families today.

This is just science - go for a walk.

This paper found walking (whether outdoors or a treadmill) increased key types of creative thinking for over 80% of undergraduates. The reasons are not fully clear, but there seem to be direct effects on the brain apa.org/pubs/journals/…

AI will magnify the already great difference in knowledge between the people who are eager to learn and those who aren't.

Honestly pretty good

Has anyone else just given up on text messaging?
