Mercor (@mercor_ai) scaled from $1-500M in revenue run rate in the last 17 months, making us the fastest growing company of all time. Our growth is accelerating. We averaged 11% week over week growth in July, 18% WoW growth in August, and 19% WoW growth in September. One trend driving this meteoric growth: the Economy is Becoming an RL Environment Machine. Reinforcement learning is becoming so effective that agents can hillclimb any benchmark, but humans need to define the rewards to automate everything. While everyone fears job loss, we’re creating a new category of knowledge work faster than any other time in history. The future of work will converge on training agents. We're paying out over $1M / day to people in our marketplace and hiring experts rapidly across nearly every domain: software engineers, doctors, lawyers, consultants, bankers, and many more.

@macbolak @BascomA @chriscantino @davefontenot @AJEhrenberg_ You think Nashville has some startups to invest in... I’d be down if @KailashSundaram @ksundaram_ is down

America, I’m honored that you have chosen me to lead our great country. The work ahead of us will be hard, but I promise you this: I will be a President for all Americans — whether you voted for me or not. I will keep the faith that you have placed in me.

Democracy lives on.

@MariaAmorosso Thank you @MariaAmorosso!!

.@JoeBiden can unify the American people because he's spent his life fighting for us. And as president, he'll build an America that lives up to our ideals. I'm honored to join him as our party's nominee for Vice President, and do what it takes to make him our Commander-in-Chief.

Big win for the city of Detroit. The story is just being written.

@TheNotoriousTLC @PrinceChaka_ beast. major congrats bro :)

Tough to watch an antitrust hearing where members of Congress confuse Twitter for Facebook. We need more people in government who understand tech.
