Follow AI Builders — Not Influencers

RT Imaan Sultan 🇵🇰🇸🇦 i have very good friends at a very well known + respected YC voice ai startup that are hiring for growth / marketing lead! -> 4m+ seed from floodgate, peak xv -> enterprise customers already (doordash, navan, google) -> working with some of the best frontier labs on voice data very bullish on them + can vouch personally for entire team. looking for someone who has a track record of growth execution / is well-known in the sf startup ecosystem can make a direct intro if a good fit :)

我这条帖子里，留下了一个明显的逻辑漏洞，我就看看会不会有坏种上钩

Gemini #1 on AAv5??? this is making me open up @antigravity for the first time in a long time. i’m getting an early review, will report back soon. if google actually pulls this off it is officially comeback season with Meta, Grok and now GDM being cool again. @saranormous talked about model neurodiversity last year. we have roughly 2x more frontier labs than when she was last on the aie stage. absolutely bizarre counter example to the bitter lesson.

ShipFast，成也 Build In Public ，败也 Build In Public 。 天天喊着 Build In Public 的，有两种人。 一种是自己开发产品了，实在没招了，不知道怎么宣传推广，于是只好 Build In Public ，如果效果不好，他过段时间还会开源，留下一个烂摊子，去开一个新项目了。 一种是看到别人说产品大流量或者赚钱了，腆着脸以 Build In Public 名义去要求对方公开域名。 这两种人，第一种只是由于没学会别的宣传推广方式，不会搞流量，所以才 Build In Public，属于好人行列。 第二种就是纯纯的坏种了，你根本不知道他怀着什么心思在要求别人公开域名。 以前我说过，站长、域名、流量、收入这几个数据一定不能同时公开。 你要炫耀流量，或者炫耀收入都行，人之常情，我也炫耀，但是不要暴露产品名或者域名。 你要去别的地方宣传推广，肯定会留下域名，这时候你最好就换一套身份信息去发，不要跟当前会公开表达的身份挂钩。 这样别人即使抓取到了你的域名，知道你的流量，甚至估算出来了收入，也不知道是你的。 而真能估算收入的，一般也是业内人士，人数少，大多数不会干坏事。 就像我说我们可以去学习借鉴 Higgsfield 的营销方式、定价策略、SEO 搞流量的页面策略等等，但我们并不会对 Higgsfield 造成什么破坏性影响。 但是当一个明确的人做了一个明确有不少收入的产品，且产品名字和域名等信息都公开了，那么经过公众讨论之后，这个产品会有什么样的遭遇，谁也不知道。 不过，以上说的都是个人开发者或者小团队的产品，那些公开融资的产品不再这个讨论范围内。

Why I think building an AI startup with OpenAI or Anthropic or Google or Grok models is kinda like ordering a crisp McDonald's Diet Coke.

What are some inference tasks that you’re still bottlenecked on intelligence (and not compute or $$) ?

I have built and overseen teams that have trained frontier models of every type. Can say this confidently: there is no need for AI teams to build good models any more. Can do it all with latest AI better. Great models yes, but only for another year.

Thank you everyone for your support! 🚀🫡❤️
