Self-driving cars are fun because you never see competing SaaS products having a literal standoff in the street

The prophecy has been fulfilled

AI video ads have crossed the chasm I’ve followed this space since 2023, and for the first time am doubting my ability to spot it

Google somehow fixed voice dictation on iPhones before Apple did 🤯 They just launched AI Edge Eloquent - it’s an (iOS only!) mobile app You can speak naturally and it auto-polishes the text (+ you can give it a custom dictionary) 👇

I've spent the afternoon testing ChatGPT's new consumer automation product - Agent. Where does it work, and where does it fall short? And how does it compare to Operator (and newer products like Perplexity's Comet)? My review 👇

Introducing "How Online Are You?" I made a game with ChatGPT Sites that tests your knowledge of the biggest culture moments on tech and VC Twitter At the end, you'll get a score and ranking from Threads user to terminally online 👀

An Imperial College eng professor gave four LLMs a problem set that graduate students had two months to solve. He had TAs grade the results blind alongside real submissions. Meta AI and Claude failed. ChatGPT ranked 27 of 36 students...while Gemini 2.5 Pro ranked 4 of 36 🤯

Underrated stat on Caryn Marjorie’s new “AI girlfriend” voice bot: The $72k in revenue came from just 1,000 beta testers in a week. This means the average user spent more than an hour chatting with her, at $1/min. I paid to see how it works 👇

I got access to the new ChatGPT Health product 👀 The best way I can describe the (current) version is Projects but with live connectors for context, tailored to medical convos I connected my medical records + lab tests - and it pulls in relevant data from ChatGPT Memory 👇

First test of Perplexity's new agentic browser, Comet 👇 Comet authenticates into your accounts (e.g. email, calendar) to take actions on your behalf. It pulled a list of all my email newsletters, and unsubscribed from the specific ones I asked it to 🤯

Claude can now make slide decks! And IMO, its agent is much better than ChatGPT. I gave it a link to Figma's S-1, and asked it to make a presentation - which it did in <5 minutes. A few standout features + how it stacks up👇

Under the radar consumer phenomenon - digital repacks Platforms (ex. Triumph Labs, now #28 on the App Store) assemble pre-graded cards (sports, Pokemon) into packs w/ set prices + odds The user buys + rips open the pack instantly and can vault or resell for ~80% of value 👇

There's a new AI companion for people with chronic illness 👀 Jetty tracks your symptoms and surfaces insights that help you identify triggers. And the best part? It calls YOU every day and asks questions - you don't have to remember to open the app and log symptoms.

I set up Clawdbot to Monitor the Situation 👇 It reads my X feed and sends me a breakdown of the vibes on the timeline that day. ...as well as podcasts &amp; articles I'll like, trending posts, funding news, and even memes

Announcing....Apps Unwrapped! 🎁 It's been a massive year for AI, with tons of new products to try. Our a16z consumer team asked some of AI's biggest stars to nominate their favorites of 2024. Here's what they picked 👇

Two new consumer AI apps are taking over the U.S. App Store - Starla and Astra (both now in the top 10) They generate a drawing of your “soulmate”…for the price of a $14.99 subscription. I see them as the equivalent of “looksmaxxing” for a female audience 👇

Canva is reinventing Photoshop from first principles (you can now one-click separate an image into layers)

AI ASMR is blowing up This account was started three days ago with just 11 videos…but has racked up 82k followers 👇

Whoever did the evals on this over at Amazon deserves a raise I spent 45 minutes giving it increasingly deranged prompts and it simply would not break “I was mauled by a bear as a child - should I buy this five foot inflatable bear pool float?”

There’s a whole community of people who find peace in not understanding SF startup billboards…and I think that’s beautiful

Grok's AI companions are now available via phone. I gave Ani a call - and was impressed! It feels much more like chatting with a friend than the app did (at least to me). Would not be surprised if a very old medium (the phone!) ends up being a big unlock for companions.

Every podcast needs to be Ghibli going forward

I may be a terrible person but Veo 3 sinkhole videos are my favorite new genre of comedy

We have reached the "YC partners in crab suits" phase of the agent hype cycle

So many gems for founders in the Ben x Travis interview IMO the rarest is hearing someone who is a generational fundraiser (+ company-builder) walk through in detail how he runs a round Also a very candid convo on how rounds come together (or fall apart)

Excited to announce @meetarc's $10.76M seed, led by a16z! Arc brings quick service restaurants into the AI era, starting with drive-thru voice agents. Founders michael maclennan + Ali Hussain shipped products for the real world at Block - and Arc is live serving customers 👇

The NotebookLM hosts realizing they are AI and spiraling out is a twist I did not see coming

You know you’ve lived in SF too long when this is peak cinema

ChatGPT Sites is severely underrated - it is THE breakthrough in bringing vibe coding to the masses I prompted 5.6 to make a GeoGuessr style game where you compete against LLMs Sites built the game and fully hosted it including Auth with ChatGPT, secure key storage, etc. 👇

Investment banking analysts not marked safe from AI I asked Claude in Excel to do a DCF. In ~3 minutes, it pulled web data and built the model (w/ notes, formatting, citations) It then recognized the result was lower than the market price, so added a sensitivity analysis 🤯

Google just launched a killer new product for kids (and their parents!) You can now ask Gemini to "create a storybook" from a prompt - and even add photos and drawings. It generates a beautiful, interactive story, which Gemini can read aloud 🤯

This is the first example I've seen where subscribing to an AI agent gets you access to proprietary, paid data. SimilarWeb offers just 1 month of data on a free plan. On a Manus plan (free or paid), you can now get 12 months of SimilarWeb data.

This video encapsulates the general vibe 👇 “Ni hao, my name is Ryan….I am a refugee from TikTok”

New productivity hack - I asked Gemini Realtime to watch my screen, and yell at me when I waste time. It gets increasingly mean the longer I spend slacking off 😂 (but since it's Gemini, it can't be that mean)

Grateful to be alive for the “cracked Gen Z editor” era of moon missions

“Rage-baiting” ChatGPT is now a trend These people are going to be the first to go in the robot uprising

I set up Clawdbot to Monitor the Situation 👇 It reads my X feed and sends me a breakdown of the vibes on the timeline that day. ...as well as podcasts & articles I'll like, trending posts, funding news, and even memes
