The next authentication layer won't be passwords or CAPTCHAs. It'll be something far more personal.

Your health data is yours. Your financial data is yours. But your AI memory? The most sensitive context you’ve ever generated? Someone else’s data center. Someone else’s model. Someone else’s ToS. @mignano wrote about where this goes.

Exciting news: The 2nd Edition of The World After Capital is now available as ePub -- get it here worldaftercapital.org/products/the-w…

We're hiring analysts at @USV. Some truly incredible people have come from prior cohorts of the program, including: * CEOs who's companies are worth in the billions of dollars * Founders who have sold startups to publicly traded companies * GPs who lead some of the most successful venture funds on the planet. If you're interested in learning the craft of venture capital and working with my partners and me in New York City, please stay tuned.

This is a good question! Here are things we used to think about in analyst hiring/need analysts to be good at that now won’t be on the list bc agents do it: -reserves analysis and fund modeling -LP reporting and company updates -board meeting summaries and reports -decks -instincts around diligence questions -etc Things they will and agents haven’t replaced: -be immersed in networks of early day founders interested in our thesis areas -be someone those founders want to share ideas with -have great judgement and both interesting and compelling points of view -be human with other humans and an organizer of great people together

Luck had it that I first heard about @usv via google search in Aug'22 -theyd just preannounced Hoping this reaches someone who also doesnt quite fit the VC mold, is deeply curious about how tech clashes w the world, and never stops asking why things are the way theyve always been

highly recommend if you’re interested in pursuing venture, the title of analyst undersells what you get access to and your potential impact also excited to see more of what the USV agents becomes 🫡

Almost time for another round of @usv analyst hiring. Please share, especially with people who might not be reading our blog ...

@andrewdsouza @usv @0xsmac I know a couple who fit this lane, one biotech/deep tech investor with serious research chops, another young scout with unusually good taste upstream of the market. Want the sharper ones? twitter.com/messages/compo…

The last mile of science is still human. @ConsensusNLP gives 2.5M researchers the leverage to spend their time on the work only they can do. Excited to keep backing @IPlayedD1, @c_salem2, and the whole Consensus team.

Announcing Cofounder 2: Run an entire company with agents. It's the infrastructure for the one person billion dollar company - orchestrating agents across engineering, sales, marketing, ops, and design. (and yes that's my real grandma in the video)
