It only needs a few crazy ones to fix a continent… Let's be crazy… I got something to announce: We're launching PROTOTYPE: a new fund, fully focused on Europe. A small fund that punches way above it's size. With it we back what Europe is world-class at: robotics, automation, manufacturing, and anything that requires hard engineering. First check. First round. As early as it gets. Europe invented industry. We're the birthplace of precision manufacturing. The second largest manufacturing hub on the planet. Leaders in automation and robotics. And yet… We sell out our best tech to China. We export our best founders & most of our investment money to the US. That's insanity. What should we do instead? Build the next trillion euro companies in robotics, manufacturing, automation right here: in Europe. Showcase to young founders what is possible and change the system around them where needed. What we will do: → Publish all our fund updates and build in public: updates.prototypecap.com → Showcase Europe’s Most Ambitious Startups on Youtube: @prototypecap" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@prototypecap → Launch & support more projects like @euinc_petition. Enough talking about Europe. Time to build it: Startups, makerspaces, student clubs, and much more. → And most importantly, invest into the best founders in Europe. Same model as our previous funds that are in their top 1-5% cohorts worldwide. We won’t do a VC fund in the classic sense. This will be a community of hyper-ambitious people who want to actively change Europe for the better. It only needs a few crazy ones to fix a continent… Let's be crazy. Check out prototypecap.com!

@nikitabier @dieworkwear sorry i dont believe that - around every russian action there is so much astroturfing its not even funny also why incentivize/pay people in developing countries to ruin politics of other countries?

When I first started at X, this is one of the things I did a deep dive on because I felt it was critical to the integrity of the experienced. I tasked our Threat Disruption team to investigate a number of trends that seemed artificial. The findings: We could not find meaningful examples of foreign interference in US policy discussions, except people gaming rev share in developing countries. This is what motivated the release of the Country of Origin feature and significant changes to the rev share algorithm. The most deranged & divisive replies generally were from residential IPs in the United States—with no signs of using a VPN. Ultimately, X is a reflection of the internet. And that means you will see the full spectrum of human thought. And sometimes the most outrageous takes will catch fire. Having said all of this, there can still be cases of narratives being boosted but the origin of the initial post is almost always domestic and we have hardened our systems in the last 3 months to prevent this.

the one conspiracy i believe is that this place is full of bots programmed to say insane, incendiary things and they're funded by foreign organizations who want to divide americans and destabilize US society

@andreasklinger @peer_rich Hell yeah, i couldn't explain to any one back home that i was using a "taxi" for any mini ride across SF. Honestly that was amazing 😁

Want to vibe with SPACE DATA? Now you can. Claude + Tilebox = any satellite data, any insight, one prompt. 🛰️ In the last five years we sent more satellites into space than in the 50 years before that. China alone requested licenses for 200,000 satellites this year. SpaceX asked for a million. For context: right now there are 15,000 active ones up there. Space is getting crowded. And it's producing insane amounts of data. The problem was never the data, the problem was using it. Until now, satellite data was for hedge funds monitoring Walmart parking lots. You needed massive teams, massive infrastructure, and 80-90% of the work was just data cleanup and sourcing before any actual analysis happened. Tilebox just changed that. Their pitch: the AWS for SPACE DATA. You connect Claude Code to their MCP, write a prompt, and it figures out the rest. You don't need to know where the data is stored, how it's formatted, or which AI model to use. It finds the data, runs the compute co-located with it, and gives you answers. And this is just day 0 - imagine how this will look once there are 100 thousands of satellites in space (we got 15k now). This is exactly the kind of software infrastructure Europe should be building. 🇪🇺 Disclaimer: we're investors (obviously). Also means we got first dips in showing this to the world.

The architecture makes sense. With petabytes of satellite telemetry, data gravity is the real bottleneck. Shipping that much raw data across networks is a fool's errand. Running containerized compute directly where the data lands is the only scalable way forward as orbital infrastructure explodes.

Founders walk a fine line: they need to signal an ambitious mission without slipping into language so broad that no one can tell what they actually build! IMHO, @tileboxio gets that balance right with “AWS for space data”, as read in @andreasklinger's recent post: it's crisp, intuitive, and useful as a mental model, yet still aspirational because it places the company in a category-defining role. It avoids the abstract trap of saying something like “Powering the digital backbone of the orbital age,” which sounds grand but leaves the listener guessing The best teases do two things at once: they make the mission feel bigger than the product, and they make the product immediately legible. If either side is missing.. the story gets weaker.

@andreasklinger The 80-90% cleanup line is the whole market. My test for Tilebox would be simple: can a non-geo engineer ask for 3 regions, 2 sensors, and a date window, then get the query, data lineage, and result without touching S3 permissions? If yes, this stops being niche GIS infra.

DAMN - Yann LeCun is raising a new AI-focused VC fund. He raised $1bn earlier this year for his startup @amilabs. Now he's raising a fund. The firm, named Extelligence Invest, will invest in companies across: > AI and data infrastructure > Healthcare technologies and human longevity > Cross-border consumer platforms > Frontier deeptech, including robotics, new mobility and compute. Great stuff from @mayadhjourno, article from @Siftedeu linked below. VERY INTERESTING @ylecun

SpaceX has introduced a new website for Starmind, the company's AI satellite constellation. Back in January of this year, @SpaceX filed a request with the FCC to launch and operate a constellation of 1 million AI satellites. The website provides info about their AI1 satellite, thermals, solar, etc. Website: #power-generation" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">spacex.com/spacexai/starm…
