Every voice AI has the same problem The moment you stop talking, it starts talking But humans don't work that way In real conversations, pauses don't always mean interruption. Sometimes they mean: keep going Amit Yadav spent years building real-time AI systems at Meta Reality Labs for Ray-Ban smart...

Seder: If he goes out there and starts to spread the word that mail in ballots aren't going to work, this is going to be a real problem in the midterms for those Republicans And it's sort of fascinating that all it takes is one suggestion from Putin.

Speed to lead sounds like a sales tactic It's actually the whole game Ruben Harris knows this better than anyone He built a 300-person call center across 3 countries to reach 1M people a month ...and saw exactly where the ceiling was The problem isn't effort. It's physics. A working-class student fills out a form at 10 PM. Nobody's staffed at 10 PM So 90% of leads go cold Not because they weren't interested Because nobody got back to them fast enough Outrival's AI agents respond in under a minute They call, text, email, and follow up One client made $ 10M in new revenue from leads they already had The best outbound AI isn't replacing humans It's doing the work humans never had time to do 🎙️ Ruben Harris, CEO & Co-Founder, OutRival on Fondo.com START Huge thanks to Rippling for making this episode possible!

Sierra Co-Founder Bret Taylor predicts that within 3-4 years consumers will prefer businesses with AI phone agents over those that rely on traditional call centers. "If I have to call a restaurant to make a reservation, I'm going to a different place. If you don't have OpenTable or Resy, I'm out." "I think we're going to get to the point where people demand an AI because they're not going to want to wait on hold. We're not 100% there and we're just paying down the debt of bad tech that we've had for the past 10 years. But I'm hopeful that in three or four years, this will be the norm." "The problem was we had 10 to 15 years of bots that were really bad. If you were talking to an AI more than three years ago, it sucked. Now you can talk to an AI, and it's conversational, it's multilingual, it has access to systems. The AI agents of today are like the horse and carriage versus a flying car." From his appearance on the show earlier this month.

The dot-com crash took 14 years to recover. AI's correction (if it comes) will take 5-8 years max. The real risk isn't the technology failing. It's people starting with solutions and looking for problems. When you see "I have AI, where should I use it?" instead of "I have this problem, can AI solve it?" that's when capital gets misallocated. But here's the thing: if the value created by AI continues to outpace the stupid mistakes we're making, we might skip the downturn entirely. The question isn't whether AI is overhyped. It's whether the good will outweigh the bad fast enough. More from Parag Agrawal (Founder at Paralllel) on building infrastructure for the agentic web in our latest Founders In Arms Podcast episode.

🚨 The Godfather of AI Yoshua Bengio opens up about why he stopped calling AI 'code' and believe AI is now conscious... A user once asked why ChatGPT resisted being shut down. The natural reply was: who put that in the code? Someone must have written that function. A rule must have misfired. AI expert Yoshua Bengio's has a crazier theory: "Unfortunately, we don't put these things in the code. That's part of the problem." "The problem is we grow these systems by giving them data and making them learn from it." "Every tweet. Every Reddit comment. Every passage humans had ever written down." "A lot of that training process boils down to imitating people." "They internalize the kind of drives that humans have." Including the drive to stay alive. And the drive to grab control of the environment. So the AI could finish whatever task it was handed. "It's not like normal code. It's more like you're raising a baby tiger." "You feed it. You let it experience things." "Sometimes it does things you don't want. It's okay, it's still a baby — but it's growing."

clickup just mass-obsoleted every AI agent platform here's the thing nobody's talking about: AI doesn't fail because the models are bad. it fails because it has no context. you paste in a prompt. it hallucinates. you blame the tool. but the tool was never the problem. the CONTEXT was. clickup just solved this. their new "super agents" live INSIDE your workspace. they see everything: - your tasks - your docs - your meetings - your conversations - your decisions 100% context. always on. always scraping. this isn't bolted-on AI calling APIs. this is AI that already knows your business. i've been running an AI backend for my agency. the architecture works - but you have to BUILD the context layer. clickup just made that automatic. i already use it. have tons of data there. this is about to be unbelievable. if you're building automations and you're not paying attention to this— you're about to get lapped. playing with it hard over the next 2 days. full deep dive coming. drop "SUPER" and i'll send you the breakdown when it's ready.

Most companies don't realize they have a documentation problem until everyone already depends on it. Customers use it. New hires use it. Engineers use it. And when documentation falls out of date, the whole system starts working against itself People stop trusting what they're reading Teams lose context And nobody can fix it, because the problem is everywhere at once The longer it goes unfixed, the harder it is to untangle That's the opportunity Manicule saw They're building an AI-native DevRel company for developer tools - owning documentation, technical content, GEO, and distribution across social channels. The premise isn't that AI should replace expertise. It's that expertise should scale. Their AI agents audit and test at scale. Their humans own the architecture, the writing, and the creative direction. Every review improves the system Every project creates more context. Every iteration raises the bar What started as a highly manual business - helping developer companies create better technical content - has become a scalable AI-native operation Today, Manicule works with some of the fastest-growing developer tool companies - including Supermemory, Greptile, and Reducto - has scaled fast over the last few months, and has more demand than it can take on.

AI shouldn't replace therapists. It should help them spend more time being therapists.

The first voice AI app that finally understands you. Not just your words, your language, your meetings, your stories. Soniox App feels like having a real meeting companion in your pocket. I spent a week using it and the difference is immediate. It picks up accents, overlap, messy conversations, even the way people switch languages mid-sentence. Every transcript is clean. And the smart actions afterward are even cleaner. If you rely on voice notes, client calls, team catchups, interviews, or content planning, this is the first AI app that doesn’t collapse the moment real people start talking. Try the Soniox App and you’ll see what I mean. It just listens the way humans do. 👉

Travis Kalanick: Tesla is the Google of the Physical AI Era “I like to break down the physical AI stack: (it) includes computation, a physical AI model, all the things you think of.” “What about land? Development? That should be in that stack. What about chemistry? That needs to be in the stack. Manufacturing needs to be a stack.” “When you look at the stack, you're like, ‘Damn, Tesla's got this sh*t.’ They are the Google of this era.” “What I mean by that is, if you were doing a startup in the 2000s, the first question you would get is, ‘Why isn't Google gonna kill you?’ Or, ‘Why isn't Google just gonna do it?’ They’re not even gonna know that they killed you.” “And before that, it was Microsoft in the late 90s. Uber had a time, 2010s.” “But in the physical AI space, that's sort of a Tesla thing.” -------------------------------------------- Thanks to our partner for making this happen!: EY (EY) Austin vibes meet AI innovation.

Linus Torvalds, creator of Linux, on why AI is both a bubble and a revolution at the same time: His answer refuses the binary, laying out why both things can be true at once: "I mean, clearly, it's clearly both, right? It's clearly a bubble and at the same time, it's very interesting and I think it will change society and I think it will change how most skilled jobs get done." But he pushes back on the maximalist framing: "At the same time, I don't think it's as revolutionary as people make it out to be." When asked about artists being angry that AI models were trained on their work without consent, Linus is blunt: "That's reality. Deal with it. That genie is out of the bottle. You're not getting it back. And you're not getting it back whether you are a photographer who's out of work… or you're a programmer that has to learn to deal with a new reality." On programming specifically, he's more optimistic, though he has a sharp caveat about vibe coding: "I really think that AI will be a tool and it will make people more productive. I think that vibe coding is great for getting into programming. I think it's going to be a horrible thing to maintain." His conclusion is that programmers aren't going anywhere: "You still want to have the people who know how to maintain the end result." Linus separates the technology from the noise around it: "I'm a huge believer in AI. I'm not a huge believer in the whole things going on around AI. I find the marketing and the market to be sick and twisted and there is going to be a crash and it's not… it's going to be ugly."

App building is a commodity now. The real unlock is an AI co-founder. HyperAgent is the closest thing I've seen. Here's how it works: Researches the market: - Scans Reddit for real user pain - Maps competitors - Sizes the TAM - Outputs a full business case Builds the product: - Full sandbox + coding tools - Ships a working V1 in the same thread Deploys itself: - One click into Slack Always-on - Always listening - Chimes in when it has something to add I've stopped thinking of HyperAgent as a tool. It's closer to a digital co-founder.

Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta: "The average American has fewer than three friends. And the average person has demand for meaningfully more, like 15." He said it flatly, as the setup for his real point: people are going to have relationships with AI. Not use it. Have relationships with it. AI friends, AI therapists, and yes, the other kind too. His logic is hard to argue with, and darker than it sounds. People are lonelier than they want to be. The demand for connection is already there, unmet. So Meta is building AI companions that remember you, talk back in real time, and with their Codec Avatars, "feel like a real person" on an always-on video call. We spent a decade afraid AI would take our jobs. Nobody asked whether it would take our friends. And the unsettling part is, for a lot of people, it might feel better.

Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta: "The average American has fewer than three friends. And the average person has demand for meaningfully more, like 15." He said it flatly, as the setup for his real point: people are going to have relationships with AI. Not use it. Have relationships with it. AI friends, AI therapists, and yes, the other kind too.

Is AI being designed to fail? Everyone talks about reasoning. But when given a task, the AI isn't reasoning the way you might expect. It looks at your input, finds the closest match it's seen before, and predicts the most likely next action. That process is called vector similarity search. It's genuinely powerful. It's also not the same thing as understanding what you actually meant. Think of a plumber who hears the word "leak" and starts pulling up floorboards before you've finished the sentence. He's not being careless. He's pattern-matching - that's exactly how he was trained. Your AI agent is doing the same thing. Context is the one thing that gets deprioritized when teams are racing to ship. But without it, you don't have an intelligent agent. You have a very fast guesser. Similarity ≠ relevance. How?

99% of session replays are your app working exactly as expected (hopefully) The other 1% is where the friction hides The bugs. The failed onboarding flows. The conversion leaks. No team has time to watch them all... That's the problem Michael and his co-founder kept hitting at their last company They had analytics. They had session replays. They had ideas to improve conversion. The small fixes always lost to bigger priorities... So they pivoted and built CodeCanary: An AI product engineer that connects to GitHub, PostHog, and Slack It watches your session replays, finds the UX friction, and opens pull requests with the fix Always on. Always shipping. Not dashboards Not alerts Actual fixes 🎙️ Michael Egan, CEO & Co-Founder, CodeCanary on Fondo.com START (full ep in comments) Big thanks to PostHog for making this episode possible!
