It's surprising that more people haven't heard of this book. I'm building an experimentation framework for AEO testing and this book is great for core principles I highly recommend this for your bookshelf, even if you're well versed in experiment design amazon.com/Trustworthy-On…

I'm noticing a marked increase in voice-dictated emails over the past month Key tells: - Extremely fast response times - No typos and full sentences - Suspiciously good grammar Typing "manually" will soon be an artifact of the pre-AI era

Sketch to real-time image generation ✨ Had to charge up the old iPad to test out @krea_ai's new app - and it did not disappoint! I suspect we'll soon be getting streams where you can watch people sketch and render full stories.

Alex Immerman @aleximm Since we launched our first @a16z Growth fund seven years ago, we’ve backed companies that are just at the point of finding product-market fit all the way through to investing at IPO, and we recently announced our latest $6.75B Growth fund to continue to do so. We now manage over over $22B across five Growth funds and believe the opportunity to partner with growth-stage companies has never been greater. Through it all, Alex Immerman has been instrumental in what we’ve built, which is why I’m thrilled to announce that Alex is being promoted to General Partner on our Growth investing team at a16z. Alex has been an incredible force since joining the team seven years ago, partnering with founders across consumer internet, enterprise, fintech, crypto, and AI-powered software companies — supporting them from early traction through breakout scale. In the last six months alone, Alex led our new investments in Kalshi, EliseAI, and Revolut, and has partnered with many founders in his time here, including those from Waymo, Stripe, ElevenLabs, Hebbia, Roblox, Anduril, Flock Safety, and many more. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Alex for over a decade, dating back to our time at General Atlantic. Those who know Alex know he’s a hustler, in the best way, with great instincts. He has an endless motor, isn’t afraid to speak his mind, and is always willing to help. I’ve also enjoyed seeing Alex become a culture carrier on the Growth team and across the firm. In his work, Alex has brought deep strategic insight and rigor to every part of the investment process. He’s built strong founder relationships grounded in trust and long-term support, and helped shape our thinking about how great companies win — whether that’s moving beyond surface metrics to durable moats or evaluating what truly drives retention in new software paradigms. As a General Partner on Growth, Alex will continue leading investments and working closely with founders tackling some of the biggest opportunities in tech today, with an emphasis on category-defining companies at the intersection of AI, consumer, B2B, crypto, and the physical world. Please join me in congratulating “AI.” I’m proud to call him a partner and am excited for what’s ahead.

A few graphs that show why Google would be smart to "burn the boats" and go all in on Gemini: 1. Google share of search sessions is finally starting to fall to ChatGPT and other LLMs - now <80% vs. 88% this time last year. Google's DAU/MAU ratio has also moved downwards for the first time in a long time (now 25% vs. 28%+ pre-ChatGPT). 2. "AI Mode" on Search has been slow to take off, with usage at <10% of weekly sessions across geos where it has been launched. This has actually been moving downwards over time in several markets (UK and India), though is flat / slightly up in the U.S. 3. Gemini is taking off - especially post Gemini-2.5 launch this spring (weekly users up 2x since then on desktop). Retention cohorts are improving over time and even "smiling upwards" (!) as the underlying models improve and new capabilities are introduced.

100 days from now we will kickoff the first NYC SEO Week conference. An event @iPullRankAgency is throwing because NYC has not had enough SEO shows post-pandemic. The conference will be April 28th to May 2nd and early bird tickets are available right now at seoweek.org There are a lot of things we'll be doing differently than other shows, but for today, I'm going to highlight our venue. The space uses a technology called "projection mapping" where walls are giant continuous screens. SEO Week will be an immersive experience unlike anything I've ever been to for an SEO conference. More importantly, our speaker lineup is incredible. Here are just some of the legends we've confirmed so far. @aleyda @lilyraynyc @AnnieCushing @randfish @eliasdabbas @devinemily @dawnieando @dejanseo @GregGifford @ruthburr We're also partnering with Charlene Kate Events, the team behind the highest production value events in our space, to ensure it all goes off without a hitch. Much more to come! Get your tickets!

I’m always extremely thankful to receive kind holiday gifts from SEO friends, partners or clients, such a nice gesture I’ll be always thankful for… this year tho, they’re certainly next level! 🔥 Exhibit A: a Last Crumb gourmet handmade cookies box from @eywu : you’re certainly too kind - I’ve already chosen the first one I’ll start with when I watch Netflix tonight 🤩🔥🙌 PS: If you see me taking my Padel, jump rope and running routine more seriously after holidays, you know why it is 😅🙏 PPS: If you haven’t planned gifting a little something to someone you appreciate working with, I couldn’t recommend it more, it doesn’t need to be a huge gift. Just a small detail showing you appreciate and care, will be very meaningful and can have a huge impact. 👏

I love we’re seeing so many “SEO experts” popping like mushrooms on the back of AI. There’s gonna be a lot of repair work to be done after the scorch Google is preparing to unleash.

@Pretotyping @PawelHuryn Those customers are in "Thoughtland" Customers tend not to think of their choice sets Even if prospective customers 'think' they would use your product, many don't consider the strong force of habit (i.e. not changing and continually using their current solution for the JTBD)

This exchange (image courtesy of @PawelHuryn) shows not one but two misleading/dangerous issues in market validation. The first one is made explicit in the cartoon. Can you guess what is the second really BIG issue with "11 customers told me they love this idea!" ???

Getting only good, not GREAT results from ChatGPT? The AI can output PostGrad level content, but ask the AI to simplify & reason like a 5 yr old 1st. Give it space to reason through the prompt A core keyword is 'think step by step' 👣 Level-up Reading: github.com/openai/openai-…

Why do websites hijack the back button? 🤬 Is the 'Feedback' button in the kebab menu a way to report these websites to Google Search? I wish there were a form like 'Report a Security Issue' for things like this.
