I had the pleasure of writing for @a16z on the future of the American oil and gas industry. This is one of the most critical problems to work on today. I will share the link in the comments. Let's build.

@landforce I use both

So like... Claude (w/ Code, Work, etc) or Manus?

@VijarKohli Thanks dude

@FracSlap Nice work.

Why should you use Collide versus ChatGPT or Claude? We can talk AI all we want, but no one wants to talk about the unsexy data engineering that has to happen in oil and gas. That's why we spent so much of our time and R&D on fixing the data problem. > Automatically organize thousands of pdfs and csvs to know what's a drilling report, a log, or a lease. > Send those documents to data pipelines built specifically for O&G documents to get accurate extraction of the data >connect to legacy software systems >Train an embeddings model that understands oil and gas terminology 34% better than OpenAI Once you solve the data problem, then the fun begins applying domain specific intelligence. >Our LLM, RIGGS, out-performs Claude, Grok, and Chatgpt on petroleum engineering >Our agentic orchestration executes full workflows with access to tools and skills built for oil and gas engineering and other disciplines. >Reinforcement learning engine that takes feedback from you teams and makes the system smarter over time. It's easy to get to 80% on a flashy demo using claude or gpt, but every % point is exponentially harder. 100% is only achievable if you solve at the data layer and have foundational technology built for these specific problems.

@Astoll15 Thanks dude

@FracSlap Thanks, very neat stuff!

@Astoll15 Llama 3.1B is the base model. First version was just giving it some oil and gas data and fine-tuning it, the it evolved and advanced from there. Here's an article on it collide.io/resources/why-…

@FracSlap Is RIGGS built on top of a commercially available model or did you develop it from scratch? And curious how you went about making that decision (if you can share).

@TradersCom @GPinks Pinkertons in Houston. Best bbq you will ever have.

@FracSlap @GPinks Where that at Frac?

Yea, Houston sucks @GPinks

@zacurate @GPinks easy work

@FracSlap @GPinks Delicious meats

@LandDept @GPinks lmao

@FracSlap @GPinks When I lived within walking distance of that place I would eat so much I had to stop and rest in the park on the way home (3 blocks).

@_BenGonzalez @GPinks Literally god tier

@FracSlap @GPinks Top tier

@very_crude @GPinks I already died

@FracSlap @GPinks You need to take a statin asap

@ScottTheGeo @GPinks I think $40

@FracSlap @GPinks I know that one beef rib cost you $70

@Shadfrazier @GPinks Pinkerton's. I will take you sometime, it's my spot,

@FracSlap @GPinks Which place is that

@_saratonnin Pinkerton's is goated

it’s true what they say, it doesn’t get more texas than Pinkerton’s

@OilCoIntern @CP2Close this is top tier content

Today I met with a BD “director” at a small PE-backed operator in the Permian hoping to farm into Oil Co’s Tier 4 acreage. I made time for him between learning modules about Oil Co’s core values. He offered us a full ride with 50% back-in APO. I didn’t know what APO meant. The lease had a continuous drilling clause we couldn’t meet. I was unfazed. I asked him if he had visited Cowboy Prime. He had. He asked me if I had looped in my boss about this deal. I hadn’t. Protecting company assets isn’t just about experience. It’s about relationships.

@nick96smart @TJ_Bongiorno HEB brand diet cola caffeine free is the new wave

@TJ_Bongiorno Coke Zero seems to be the recent crowd favorite

What’s the most universally liked flavored beverage? Coke/Diet Coke?

@jakalfayan Square toe gang

When dad’s from the city but you’re a real cowboy. @FracSlap is rubbing off on the kiddo

@okie_jayhawk Stud

I’m home, I’m safe, we got the fires under control in challenging conditions. Man it feels great to be able to help dude. I’m exhausted, but that shit is so gratifying.

@OkieLandman580 @collide_ai yep

@FracSlap @collide_ai For sure, I will reach out in the next few weeks to discuss what I’m trying to build and accomplish. I get it, I can use Claude or grok for projects, but at the same time if they are anti oil and gas fk em.

This is concerning, most of the ai’s I’ve used haven’t really worked for what I have in mind for the oil company I’m helping, Claude has been the only one close so far, but if they don’t want to help O&G that sucks. I guess I need to schedule a visit with @collide_ai
