The self reinforcing loop of the decade Compute shifts from training to inference as agent deployment scales → agents require persistent, low-latency compute → that style of compute requires more baseload power → power demand collides with a grid that can’t be built fast enough → resulting energy bottleneck becomes the rate-limiter on scaling → this drives continued sustainable energy R&D and labor force pressure → we augment labor force with physical AI at roughly the time that robotics is becoming performant enough to help → robots themselves are inference endpoints and present another layer of inference demand → this feeds back into the original compute and energy constraint

In 2015 we bet everything on atoms. Nobody cared. This week Jensen called robotics a $50T market and Bezos is raising $100B to reindustrialize America with AI. We weren't early. Everyone else was late. Strap in, we’re about to take off 🤘🏻🚀

Performative patriotic industrialism is one of the most valuable behaviours to peacock in early stage capital markets today. Don’t be afraid - a bald eagle may seem like a dangerous pet for the office but I assure you it will get your Series B done.

My friend is smarter than me. She worked with me at Morgan Stanley then did private equity before GSB before doing corporate jobs in Tech. She’s now chief of staff for an AI startup that recently got over $100mm of funding. Her new boss is the COO who is a NYC finance guy. He hilariously cares about formatting. Don’t worry junior bankers, AI won’t take your job. Too much bad muscle memory in middle and senior mgmt focused on turning over decks to “add value.”

by the end of this year, most of the first meetings between VCs and founders will be agent-to-agent. assuming those mtgs go well, the 2nd mtg will be old-school (person-to-person)

Asking someone about public versus private school is like asking someone what their favorite airline is Without context on what they are solving for, the answer is useless, and asserting an opinion based on data from 20 yrs ago is irrelevant — that reality no longer exists

Private schools are the most expensive placebo in America. Nowhere else will you pay $250k+ for something that has so little impact on school achievement. My latest on why private school isn't worth the cost: ofdollarsanddata.com/why-private-sc…

Automation of the physical world is a systems problem, not a robotics problem.

@matt_slotnick before i understood it as an intense travel reference, I thought "need to love planes" was just a request for a specific personal hobby, which would be hilarious

@allencontrol The Robot Cowboy Veterans, it's like they walked off a Taylor Sheridan show. You don't see this in Silicon Valley.

Would you fly in a plane that was designed using Text-to-CAD?

There’s a certain percentage of people who name drop constantly. I assume it comes from insecurity or a need to manufacture status. Does it work, and that’s why they keep doing it? Or do most recipients find it gross, but nobody gives feedback so the behavior persists?
