@SawyerMerritt Took my parents out in their car with the trial this AM. They were impressed and the only thing that got them nervous was unprotected left turns where FSD turned the wheel left while waiting prior to the oncoming vehicles passing by.

@GrousARK One of the key functions historically for retailers is curation. Google already acts as a curating agent (influenced by ad spend) for the majority of searches that don’t start directly at a retailer, but personal AI agents would be the curators of all curators and marketplaces.

The biggest issue with e-commerce today is the 'trust' gap of buying an item you can't physically see or touch.
I've long thought more social commerce would help bridge that gap and still think it will. That said, the idea of a personalized AI agent trained specifically on your preferences that can also act on your behalf seems like the logical endpoint.
Retailers try to embed trust-boosting features into online purchasing - retailer recommendations, consumer ratings/reviews, AR product viewing, etc... but if you disintermediate the consumer and retailer with a more trustworthy agent you displace the importance of the retailer itself.
This is a bit of an overgeneralization but I see AI agents disintermediating consumers and marketplaces long-term. The obvious hurdle here is getting consumers to trust their AI agents, which is why I think companionship-focused AI companies could become the trojan horses of this race. Focusing on trust instead of interesting features will pay off in the long term.

@skorusARK Great brainstorm! I tend to agree that automation creates jobs as it pulls more activity in market and unleashes creativity but I am curious how the job gain/loss curve is impacted by pace of adoption of the underlying technology… shockwave vs gradual uptake.

@wintonARK Let’s get chatGPT to write the story and submit to WSJ or NYT as a guest columnist piece

@TroyTeslike Would guess this is due to the reduction of EV tax credits in China at end of year - pump as many vehicles into the China market as possible before expiration.

@wintonARK Supply chain also sped back up just as demand started to soften (predictably) and this coupled with months long inventory commitment lead times created significant inventory build ups

Businesses reacted to supply chain by pulling forward holiday inventory

@wintonARK Otherwise destined to become commoditized contract auto manufacturers for those that own the software, if able to stay in business
English

OEMs still see software as a cosmetic cost-center to be shrink-wrapped around the vehicle design. It will be their death.
Software is now the key performance differentiator. Every vehicle (and the entire product strategy) needs to enable and empower the software at its core.
Brett Winton@wintonARK
Diess out at VW not so much due to the group’s ongoing software issues but for attributing some of the software blame to Audi and Porsche’s software customization requests (A sure sign that the software issues will magically resolve with the change in leadership)

@SirSnapback_eth @RTFKT @CloneXLA Same here - first time minting by contract but was much easier with the RTFKT community solving together

@CardilloSamuel 👏 thanks for the recap and accountability. you all are some of the best in the game. keep pushing the boundaries and innovating!
English

@munster_gene Housing supply is still well below a balanced market but building month over month. If supply keeps building and gets to long term norms or beyond, seems likely we start to see price compression assuming rates remain elevated. Will take time but the same happened to retail goods.
