@lawheroezV2 Agree. Curiosity and adaptability will be important skills to develop and use as AI evolves.

For any lawyers or legal professionals or any future lawyers or legal professionals who want to enter the Legaltech and legal AI space (or want to differentiate from the rest of the pack), I would say the most important trait/skill (if we can call it a skill) is curiosity. I would say it’s more important to be curious and eager to learn than to have technical or tech skills. The reason being that in today’s world where so much content is available to learn from and where AI can help with bridging some of these gaps, if you are curious, you can learn quickly and acquire these skills as you go whilst if you are not curious that would be harder to do in order to go into Legaltech and legal AI or differentiate as a lawyer. Curiosity is a superpower that enables and drives us to learn, experiment, do, make mistakes, learn again, evolve, and transition into new fields. Curious people are driven, relentless learners, and know that making mistakes is part of the journey. Curiosity augmented by the content, diverse people, and tech that we have around us today can allow us to branch out into new paths and avenues and break down old barriers. Like never before. Now is the time for curious people. In a world where answering the question becomes easier, asking the right (sometimes difficult) question and having the courage to ask it! becomes exponentially more important and irreplaceable

@StephNass I prefer copy A, but B likely performs better. B’s copy is concise without the specifics of A. It likely may encourage a response to learn more.

@PeterDiamandis Thanks for sharing, @PeterDiamandis. I’m part of several AI groups in Boston & Silicon Valley. Most participants are 10+ years into their careers. They’re actively using or learning about AI tools. I don’t think companies should assume that recents grads are better at AI.

crazy how random the tech game is in NYC a friend in NYC finished his Masters in AI last year, joined a decent startup, half the team just got laid off after they burned through cash, he was lowkey desperate, sitting in a cafe working on stuff, started talking to a guy next to him and it turns out he was a ceo who had just raised and was hiring swe/research roles, he just shot his shot and it actually worked out no 5 rounds, no bs, just being in the right place + having proof of work sometimes it’s not “apply more”, it’s literally just go outside and talk to people

@Will_McKelvey @Will_McKelvey, I agree with your criteria. Skills + aptitude to learn quickly > experience will matter more, especially with the rise of AI and other tech.

We’re hiring a director of talent, and my gut is the right person has near-zero recruiting experience. The right person will have the energy of an associate investor but with a passion for collecting great people, rather than companies. IMO, this style of search is the future of hiring: traits/skills > credentials/experience Anyone come to mind?

@thisisgrantlee This is great, @thisisgrantlee! Congrats & thanks for building @GammaApp Imagine. The design tax is real for so many. Different stakeholders had varied perspectives on how a deck should be formatted. Ideas + discussion > time on slide design

There's a hidden tax on every knowledge worker in the world, and nobody talks about it: The design tax. You're a strategist, a sales lead, a marketer. You were hired for what you know. But every meeting, every pitch, every proposal expects you to show up with something that looks like a designer made it. I lived this. Before Gamma, I spent time in consulting and investment banking. I spent more hours formatting slides than the analysis that went into them. When my cofounders and I started Gamma, we asked: what if you never had to be a designer in the first place? Five years and nearly 100 million users later, we've refunded billions of hours of the design tax. Today, we're eliminating it for good with our biggest launch ever. Gamma Imagine — a powerful, AI-native visual creation tool directly in Gamma. Posters, logos, infographics, visuals from a single prompt. On brand, every time. AI-Native Templates. Templates were supposed to save you from design work. Instead you spent the time filling them in. So we completely rebuilt the template experience. Modify a whole deck with a single prompt, with your brand and style intact every time. Gamma Connectors. You're already thinking in ChatGPT and Claude. Now Gamma sits inside the most popular work apps in the world. No more context-switching. You were hired for your ideas, not to resize text boxes. Let Gamma pay the design tax.

Woo hoo! Thrilled to share a sneak peek of HubCode -- The Vibe Coding Tool for HubSpot. I talked about this a few weeks ago (which feels like forever). Been cranking on it and am ready to show you the actual app now. Link to video in the comments. Or, just type video.hubcode .com in your browser (it takes you to YouTube). Some notes: 1) This requires no terminal -- runs completely in the cloud. 2) You can vibe code both app cards and full apps that live inside the HubSpot web UI. 3) Generated apps can access data within HubSpot (of course). 4) SUPER EXCITING: Apps can reuse any of the public agents in agent .ai (there are 2,000+ of them). This makes your apps super-powerful because you can access all sorts of data and services. And, you can build your own private agents and access them too. This gives you access to all the major frontier models (GPT, Opus, Gemini), and a bunch of really useful data sources and a ton of other capability. Go to agent .ai to see what's available. The demo shows pulling YouTube videos related to a company right into the app card. 5) You can paste in screenshots or other visuals as part of your vibe coding process (if you haven't done this before, it will feel magical). The HubCode app runs on the agent .ai platform and is in private beta (because this one's going to take some testing and iteration given the power and flexibility). To apply, just go to hubcode .com. This is an early "proof of concept", but will be iterating on it maniacally as I get user feedback. Let me know what you think. All thoughts, ideas, feedback and wishlist items appreciated. FEEDBACK IS A GIFT. Thank you for your support.

@clipsofcrypto This is why the art of fundraising isn't about only the numbers (TAM, SAM, SOM), it's about communication and pitching a clear vision for the future. The fact that Travis got his team unified around the @Uber story is great. Good lesson for founders. Well done, @travisk

Uber's insane fundraising story: four rooms, 12 hours a day, and they still ran out of slots Travis Kalanick reveals how Uber's fundraising war room actually worked "We would give them a table ... this valuation, how much money you want to put in. Then we would aggregate the demand like an IPO book ... but done way better because I was in charge of pricing" "I'm in the $250 million and over club. That's one room. The fourth room is like $25 million checks ... there's a guy who works for a guy who works for a guy who works for me doing that room" "We would give them a table ... this valuation, how much money you want to put in. Then we would aggregate the demand like an IPO book ... but done way better because I was in charge of pricing"

@AnishA_Moonka Great analysis, @AnishA_Moonka. It’s great that @travisk is back. The AV sector’s consolidation since ~2020 has left fewer operators standing beyond those with $ (funding). The physical AI applications will definitely unlock more innovation + newcos.

Uber pushed Travis Kalanick out in 2017. He cashed $2.5 billion in shares. Now he's launching a robotics company, and Uber is reportedly funding it. That $2.5 billion went into CloudKitchens, a ghost kitchen company renting delivery-only kitchen spaces to restaurants. Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund put in $400 million in 2019. Another $850 million in funding from investors, including Microsoft, pushed the valuation to $15 billion. CloudKitchens now runs over 2,000 locations in North America. Today, Kalanick killed the CloudKitchens brand. The company is now called Atoms. Three divisions: Atoms Food (ghost kitchens), Atoms Mining (autonomous mining vehicles), and Atoms Transport (what he calls a "wheelbase for robots"). Not humanoids doing backflips at demos. Specialized robots with real industrial jobs. First acquisition: Pronto, the autonomous mining truck startup founded by Anthony Levandowski. Levandowski ran Google's self-driving car project, left to start Otto, which Uber bought in 2016 for a reported $680 million. Google's Waymo then sued Uber for trade secret theft. Levandowski faced 33 criminal charges, pleaded guilty to one, and was sentenced to 18 months. Trump pardoned him on his last day in office. He started Pronto, which now has contracts with Heidelberg Materials (one of the world's biggest cement producers) to deploy 100+ autonomous trucks in Brazil. Here's the financial loop. Uber sold its entire self-driving division to Aurora for about $4 billion in 2020. Kalanick said publicly last year he wished they'd kept it. Now, The Information reports he's getting "major backing" from Uber itself to build a self-driving company, and that he's told people he wants to move faster than Waymo. His manifesto on the Atoms site argues that software automates language and math, but the physical world, mining, manufacturing, transport, is still mostly untouched by autonomy. When all of those go autonomous, he says, production costs collapse to raw materials and energy. He calls the machines that get us there "gainfully employed robots." The guy who got pushed out, cashed $2.5 billion, spent seven years in ghost kitchens, and is now building what Uber gave up on. Possibly with Uber's money.

Hearing this from startups and Fortune 500s: "How do I use all of Claude's features?" A few months ago, nobody asked. AI became a workflow while people were still deciding if it was real.

I really wish there was a startup (or consultant, or growth expert) focused on helping companies rank higher in AI search results. Seems like a huge opportunity. Surprised nobody is doing this yet.
