I think people are missing the point here. AI's large win is in Enterprise and B2B. Especially in US, enterprises are not going to adopt Chinese models due to the hidden security and the privacy risk. In each wave of model release, Chinese have already proven to beat the performance metrics, but there is no track record of adoption.

Companies do have a huge appetite for open-weight models, but who is going to invest enough to train those models and also prove out a revenue model and ROI with it? Plus, it needs to come from someone with the track record of safety.

Hi Eric, very excited to read your book. Im fan of The Lean Startup and it helped shape my couple of startups that I did (and got successful exit). Recently i've been having crisis and loss motivation on starting a new one after seeing SV getting corrupted in recent years, but im hoping your new book helps me revive the fire and show that starting a startup with the right ethics is possible.

Anyway, my question is - Have you had a chance to research OpenAI and it's path to getting "corrupted" i.e. going from Non-profit to this weird structure to then, what it looks like, absolutely regular for-profit company? whats your take on it? what are the lessons of the convoluted company structure they persuaded?

This is a great take! I agree with the framework on this. I’d love to hear from someone who has implemented this at their org to get learnings so far

Do you mind sharing how you implanted the trivial checks? Did you spin up your own agent? Also how are determining what is trivial or not?

This is the clearest actionable thing I’ve heard of so far, so it would be good to understand the specifics

Thanks for sharing. It’s smart to filter or prioritize it diligently or sometimes even turn it away

What are the strategies your team is doing to cope with it?

Can you expand on what strategy did you use? How are you deciding what to ignore?

I know this is mostly for fun, but it would be great to see how we are trending on the predications which has more scientific approach to it.

...remember it only takes one to be right!
