A theme of talent right now is: hire experimenters over experts. Outside of the buzziest ML talent wars, the fastest, most talented experimenters are now more valuable than the most experienced leaders. This means its not only a wild and exciting time in what's being built but also in who is doing the building.

Data as oil is the wrong model. Data is blood.

AI can now not only copilot the work but often do it directly. This shift has major implications for service industries but one is that traditional pricing models break. In saas we've seen a move from seat based pricing to usage based billing as software increasingly interacts with other software instead of people. Now we need new models to replace the concept of billable hours. Maybe it's billable outcomes? post below exploring...

Maybe the best AI memories won’t be flawless databases. Maybe they’ll be artful editors, skilled at remembering imperfectly. Knowing which signals are core, which are passing whims, and which should fade gently into the background.

Tools drive efficiency. Systems of record build dependency, and ultimately, longer-term moats. We’re excited by tools that retrieve, move, and process data with elegance. But we’re interested in partnering with tools that turn this data into collective knowledge and sources of truth.

Almost 5 million scientific papers will be published this year, but most will never be read. Not because they don't matter, but because they're buried. Consensus is the AI research stack. Search, reason, and reference in one tool.
