- elon will do anything to challenge the dominance of anthropic and openai in coding space
- never bet against the power of having a strong post training stack (composer)

SpaceXAI and @cursor_ai are now working closely together to create the worldโs best coding and knowledge work AI. The combination of Cursorโs leading product and distribution to expert software engineers with SpaceXโs million H100 equivalent Colossus training supercomputer will allow us to build the worldโs most useful models. Cursor has also given SpaceX the right to acquire Cursor later this year for $60 billion or pay $10 billion for our work together.

@himanshustwts I have my concerns about databricks, 160 billion as a private company, that too not a high growth/growth story like model making, could also be a value erosion story @himanshustwts
English
yes, chip / infra companies have always been early to IPO than any model company but its interesting that hottest model company today is merely 5 years into the market and going for the IPO soon.
so if you are hot model comp / neolab / infra / app layer with good public pereception + effective distribution, the chance of going public will not be too far. (can be 2x faster than any!)
watching out for databricks, mistral and cursor.

The best founders donโt just build products. They build communities around a shared obsession.
@emergentlabs gets this. #vibecon2026 is proof.
Across our portfolio, the companies that compound fastest are always the ones that make their users feel like theyโre part of something bigger. Watching this play out live is a privilege.
This is the place to be right now. ๐

Super excited for this Hackathon, OpenClaw is slowly becoming the defacto "harness" to use AI
Let's see what the ecosystem builds :)

I have enough evidence (anecdotal + primary) that this form factor for consumer apps (specifically โdatingโ) should work.
Now weโll let the free markets decide.
Best of luck, team @heywavelength. You guys are in for a ride :)
Vinit Sarode@vinitsarode_
Wavelength app is finally live. In December, we built an app-less experience. Chat based, completely scrappy. Whatsapp blocked 80% of our messages, emails went to spam. We were literally texting people manually to tell them they had a match. And it still worked. We matched about 250 couples and people went on real dates. Then we rebuilt everything voice first. You talk to Wave, she listens, questions, and matches you based on what she actually hears. Efficacy and satisfaction went up by 6x. Now our app can actually ping you when your match is ready and ask how your date went. Love is coming to Bangalore.

@paraschopra Contrarian optimists are a rare breed :)
English
Optimism today is more needed than ever before.
Given how many reality-distorting bubbles exist out there, pessimism is the easy choice.
But those who believe that the future can be a happy place will indeed find ways to have a more satisfactory life than those who implode.

hey @swarup_devansh, hope youโre doing well. I was really interested in attending the Community Dialogue with OpenAI by Together Fund, but I noticed that registrations have already closed. Is there any chance I could still join or be considered for attending?

@workslikejenga The equity upside of being part of a company that will eventually become a PSU is huge, gov can print cash to buy anything ;)

nah, small VCs aren't dying - they're just specializing harder. sub-$250M funds still do like 40-50% of seed deals and honestly outperform mega funds on returns bc they need way fewer wins.
what's actually dead is small funds with no real edge or thesis what's printing. small funds world-class at something - deep in a vertical, own a geography, or have unique access to specific targets.
blume/prime/stellaris in india, uncork/haystack in US - all small, all doing fine.
large funds have deployment pressure that wrecks seed-stage decision making. small funds can take weird bets on unproven ideas. that's literally where returns come from.
English
Some conclusions.
> VCs will get bigger.
> Smaller ones will really need to get good at finding seeds.
> All the seeds will be in accelerators/residency.
> Landscape changing w solofounding - projects wont need as much VC help coming out residency.
> Small VC ded unless you partner up
