Met a 65 year old in Alameda on Saturday.
We had a 30 minute intensive debate on eVTOL stocks and the future of electric vehicles. Loved every minute.

Honestly, I suspect the chances of this happening outside the Bay Area is slim.

A friend invited me for a cookout in Alameda today.
He told me the only tech he has ever done was learning how to type using an electronic keyboard as they migrated from the typewriter.
There’s all people types in Bay Area.

The most interesting thing though was finding out…

Everyday that goes by , I notice that it’s becoming easier to build and customize LLM. Which is why I still respect founders that are building chat-GPT wrappers.

Excited for these times.

Hard times on all sides.

Had lunch with an SF resident who’s been in the city since 2008 early this week.

Computer vision research is underrated.
I feel that it (in combination with audio) will form the basis of human machine interface as we will come to appreciate i.

Founder: The round is filling up fast.

Things are moving at lightning speed.

I have come to believe that another reason mobile money took off in emerging markets is because real time resolution of transactions is a norm and exchange has been based off of that for a century.

I know of a VC firm that has weekly meetings with the companies they back at-least for the first year.

I know another that has meetings only at the request of the founders.

They both invest early before Series A.

I would hate to have a weekly meeting with anyone other than…
