A founder once shared that launching on producthunt, getting to #1 and acquiring thousands of users ultimately killed his company. He explained that it gave them a false sense of product market fit that they fundraised against to build a bunch a features to solve problems real users never had.

I can't find any news stories about 30K jobs at Google going to AI. The references to the information are false. This leads me to believe this isn't a real story. If it was every news outlet would've reported on it.

OP has a point...

First link is Cisco laying 4K to focus on AI. Not jobs replaced by AI. Second link is MSFT laying off 1500 doesn't say they were replaced by AI. Third link, read the comments, it's a reorg. Normal at big companies. Fourth link is a startup ceo who is replacing 2 interns...

To beat salesforce you need to win over the admin/rev-ops or trailblazer as SFDC celebrates them. They throw monthly events in their skyscraper in every major city globally and an annual retreat/festival called Dreamforce to keep them loyal. It's not a better tech problem, it's a network effect. Good luck ripping them from the church of benioff.

I don't get the fascination with robots. There are billions of humans. Countries are restricting immigration to keep them from coming in and disrupting economies. And yet, there is awe with trying to build artificial humans?

When I was 35, I had a mid-20's startup CEO ask me if I still had it in me... what?

I joined as a senior leader and inherited a ton of 1:1s that I felt were a net negative for the organization. The majority of time people used these meetings for personal promotion thinking this was a time to show they are in the know and wanted to informally bring it to my attention. My response was always did you talk directly to the person responsible? When the person said no, I'd say lets do it now and pull up my phone and call the person on speaker.
