Yev Marusenko, Ph.D.

It's my final month at Lovable. Huge congrats to the team hitting $200M ARR! What a crazy year. From one rocketship to building the next fleet of engines.

@rohandave_ Ah. Shoot. Another day will find a 10% CTR content 🙂

@DoctorYev yes you nailed it, it was audience network placement BS, removed that and its better now

wtf? started testing new creatives - 11.5% click through rate at $100 CPM - 3.9% CTR at $27 CPM the actual CPC is close enough though so $100 CPM is doable, i think? has anyone actually experienced such high CTRs? its a first for me

@zefi @Gaurab @datarade @nathanfielder lol they should try M.Garcia

@Gaurab @datarade This is literally the plot line of a @nathanfielder sketch. He helps a psychic with marketing - marketing to the most common name in LA ‘Maria Garcia’. youtu.be/V3i8lOyDTSY?si…

We spent $15,000 on billboards targeting one person: the guy controlling all the chemical spend at a saltwater disposal company in Texas. We mapped his commute and bought every billboard between his house and the oil field. When we finally called, he said "I see your billboards everywhere." That landed us our first oil field contract. At the time our entire operation was a $10,000 reactor built from PVC pipes from Home Depot, turning corn sugar into industrial chemicals. People keep trying to throw it away. It still works. That leaking reactor started a multibillion-dollar company. @ycombinator visited our plant in Houston. The original PVC reactor is still on the floor next to the Bioforge.

@elonmusk @demishassabis The Elon Demis Law

@demishassabis There will be a little discovery along the lines of Newton or Einstein, but ~100% of intelligence output in the future will be creation of the new, rather than understanding the basic rules of reality. The pattern of the quarks, leptons & photons is almost everything.

It’s 2am again, my favourite time, and as always reality is still staring me in the face 🧐

@mattzcarey Fascinating times

every new model generation you see the pinch of the bitter lesson. harnesses, pipelines, rules which previously felt important now hold you back from innovating. what took months of grind for you is now just a prompt away at ½ the cost. look for it and you will see. Both large and small companies re-evaluating. Company directions change before your eyes. it’s a wild moment for our industry

@ZssBecker @tminx80 @bryan_johnson explains the eyes

@tminx80 same brand @bryan_johnson uses. HPO tech.

Finally achieved the holy trinity of longevity. Home Gym. In home dry sauna. In home Hyperbaric chamber. Red light therapy. 5-6x a week. I'm living to 300 or going to die trying.

@ScottFooMusic Yup! Low-key plus nice. And sometimes celebrities walk around 🙂

@DoctorYev 100% and perfect location within Silicon Valley as well

Bay Area --> did you know LOS ALTOS, CA is a very cool part of silicon valley??

Financial Times @ft showed something important: People don’t just use AI. They build relationships with it. Now imagine not owning that. Great reporting by @CristinaCriddle

@anjanps5 that one is key! take a look

@DoctorYev Would love to apply for Product :)

We're hiring! ⚡️ We're building the world's first Individual AI platform. UARE AI is founded by Robert LoCascio, former Founder & CEO of LivePerson. Join us to make AI deeply human, safe, and beneficial.

@Karmedge delphi certainly overlaps for the part of chatting with yourself or experts, yes that's probably a good primitive start. Key part there is IP-node like a social graph or even virality network graph, but linked to the IP and knowledge of individual (and revenue production)

@DoctorYev delphi?

@dwarkesh_sp many Founders start with 1 data point, and that is all that is needed (at first), so it's not the mass data approach. More of life experience or pattern recognition from single observations.

The Terence Tao episode. We begin with the absolutely ingenious and surprising way in which Kepler discovered the laws of planetary motion. People sometimes say that AI will make especially fast progress at scientific discovery because of tight verification loops. But the story of how we discovered the shape of our solar system shows how the verification loop for correct ideas can be decades (or even millennia) long. During this time, what we know today as the better theory can often actually make worse predictions (Copernicus's model of circular orbits around the sun was actually less accurate than Ptolemy's geocentric model). And the reasons it survives this epistemic hell is some mixture of judgment and heuristics that we don’t even understand well enough to actually articulate, much less codify into an RL loop. Hope you enjoy! 0:00:00 – Kepler was a high temperature LLM 0:11:44 – How would we know if there’s a new unifying concept within heaps of AI slop? 0:26:10 – The deductive overhang 0:30:31 – Selection bias in reported AI discoveries 0:46:43 – AI makes papers richer and broader, but not deeper 0:53:00 – If AI solves a problem, can humans get understanding out of it? 0:59:20 – We need a semi-formal language for the way that scientists actually talk to each other 1:09:48 – How Terry uses his time 1:17:05 – Human-AI hybrids will dominate math for a lot longer Look up Dwarkesh Podcast on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, or Spotify.

@auren imagine 2nd meeting getting invite to talk to their agent as extra filter haha

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)

@Karmedge we haven't revealed the details yet. It's like AI platform and marketplace for yourself (and experts/creators). Will be launching with some celebrities that have AI of themselves.

@DoctorYev what does it even do?)

@techhalla tricky topic. It's clearer when someone give direct permission x.com/DoctorYev/stat… other cases will take years of battling how people feel about it

Val Kilmer died in 2025 and never filmed one damn scene of this film. AI resurrected him anyway. Thoughts??

True or False? You tried bunch of AI companies before and couldn't get a useful version of yourself.

@MrBeast @Realitytv__fan I truly appreciate how you say this before every episode :) each one attempting to get better than your previous self

@Realitytv__fan Oh boy, hopefully they like my episode. What we did might be my favorite content I’ve ever filmed 😭

Last night's episode of Survivor 50 is now the lowest rated episode ever on IMDB, surpassing the premiere of Survivor 41. #Survivor #Survivor50

@RobLoCascio need one of myself

Who wants an AI of themselves? Not just one that writes and speaks like you. But one that thinks and remembers like you. Is the world ready for that yet? AI can be deeply human, safe, and beneficial. We’re getting close.
