What does personal intelligence mean? If tech like Palantir’s were to be democratized and available to you, what might your own personal seeing stone in your pocket enable you to know, to do? Here’s a bit of a sneak peek through ASIMOV’s seeing stone regarding our San Francisco event later today. In the minute or so that this ingest took, we first extracted the Luma event’s guest list and then for each of the 95 guests figured out their social media accounts on X, Instagram, LinkedIn, and beyond We obtained those profiles in full, as well as the respective social graphs (followers/followees/mutuals) for each of those accounts, and collated all that into a nontrivial (95 → ~300K → 50M+ nodes) knowledge graph representing the combined social network, reconciled with and layered onto our existing massive knowledge base. This tells us who is in the room and how they relate to us and to each other We then fetched and indexed the most recent posts for each guest’s social media accounts, and computed & compiled executive summaries of their recent activities and demonstrated interests on each those platforms, not only from text posts but also from any available photos and (short) videos. These dossiers are incredibly helpful in pinpointing who might share mutual interests We also, naturally enough, indexed all faces detected in guests’ profile photos and their most recent social media posts, as well as filed away a voice sample from any available Instagram or YouTube clip. This enables recognizing guests by their likeness and/or their voice, as we have showcased at previous events All this, by the way, can run directly on your phone, tablet, or laptop as well; just rather slower than the dedicated, scalable upstream infrastructure showcased here. Nonetheless, in the future you will be able to produce and monetize this event intelligence in your pocket yourself, or just purchase on-the-go access to it as you like The future is already here, it's just not evenly distributed. Join us at Frontier Tower tonight at 6pm to learn & discuss personal intelligence built on your own personal context graph connecting all people and information in your life!

It would be easy to call out the defense for this one, but the issue is complete lack of game management. It’s been an issue for years and it must improve. There are 10-15 passes that second half where Utd really would have benefited from controlling the game more — but lose possession from bad decisions. Like, 60 minutes into the game when Everton has pinned us down in our own end and we are up 1-0, it is impossible to justify from a risk/reward perspective to try to make a low percentage pass in behind the defense to a Sesko running down towards the corner flag just after we have won possession. All United fans knows how it feels like when you are down a goal against City and they just play off 15-20 minutes. How can they be so good at it? Check the videos from the City documentary. I couldn’t find the best clip I’ve seen, but the below is a good example. Pep is absolutely losing his mind after players losing possession of the ball. In another video he literarily starts to cry. United doesn’t have to become City II. But this is an area we just must improve and it’s long long overdue. It really is as simple as this. If you are patient and get enough players up pitch — the opponent must defend with the same numbers. If you lose the ball in that position when the opponent is defending with 10 players in the lap of their keeper — it is very hard for an opponent to counter attack on you effectively. So you get every chance to win the ball back even if you lose it. When we have a lead in a game like this — we just can’t help ourselves. Give it 15 seconds and a Dalot or Maguire or Rashford or Bruno or Cunha or Mbuemo will try a play to get into a scoring chance. This must improve and it must improve soon.

hi! we just launched SF + LA Tech Week and it’s crazy to say (I know I say this every time) but it really is true - it’s the biggest one yet. we’ve broken more records and now have 1,500+ events, over 2x last year’s launch! SF Tech Week: Oct 6-12 LA Tech Week: Oct 13-19 Register for events here: SF is on fire, on track to be home to the biggest Tech Week. When we first started Tech Week, it was right after COVID, and we saw so many founders relocating outside the Bay Area to cities all over the US. That first year, SF Tech Week was actually the smallest. This year, it’s set to be the largest. We’ve doubled the number of SF events at launch year over year, a clear signal showing just how much the AI wave is fueling the city’s growth. And this is shaping up to be *the* week for tech in the city. LA was home to the very first Tech Week, and it’s special for me to see how much it’s grown. What makes LA unique is the mix of industries here. We’re seeing two in particular take off - AI in entertainment and deep tech. The best part is how the ecosystem really comes together around Tech Week to champion the city, with so many LA investors and GPs hosting. One of the biggest pieces of feedback we’ve heard from attendees is that now that Tech Week has gotten so big, we need more ways to discover events most relevant to you. So, this year we’ve put together curated tracks: future of work in SF, entertainment in LA, investor-focused events, hard tech, fintech, hackathons, and more.

This week Mamoon Hamid and Ilya Fushman of Kleiner Perkins joined Erik Torenberg on Turpentine VC to make the case for the craftsman approach to venture capital, and it's a must-listen. Our top takeaways: 1. KP holds firm in their belief in the craft approach to VC, which isn’t too dissimilar from the approach 30 - 40 years ago. Of course they employ new tools and software that allows them to be better stewards of the capital they manage, but the craft of investing is still at the center of everything they do. Kleiner may never have more than 7 partners: less is more, and one team, one dream. And it all comes from the question of: “how do we make really good decisions?” That means all being based in the Bay Area, having in-person team meetings every Monday, and having those discussions as a team sitting around a table. 2. The team at Kleiner uses “majors and minors” to cover new waves or emerging domains with a small team. Because of their team size, it’s difficult for KP to spin up specialization. So they fall back on having partners with great fundamentals (majors), with the ability to shirt into emergent domains (minors). The minors allow partners to shift into the new trends bubbling up, like crypto, AI, and more. Mamoon and Ilya view their job as making sure they know what the new thing is, and being intentional and deliberate with their decisions to either lean deeper into it, because they believe that’s where real history-making companies will get built, or pass, because they think it’s a fad. 3. The process KP uses to determine how well they’re doing compared to other competing firms. Every Monday, they look at the prior week of Seed, Series A’s, and Series B’s that got done by their peer set. And they ask the following question for each company: “Did we see this one? Or did we not see it?” Then over the course of a quarter, they aggregate that to assess what’s happening on the ground and whether or not they’re seeing what they think are interesting companies in every company they look at. It’s a way of assessing whether or not Kleiner is truly the first, second or third call, or how relevant the firm is to the top companies that are getting funded today. While the ultimate truth to them is the eventual outcomes and win rate, this is a great top-of-funnel leading indicator. Links to the full podcast are in thread. Thank you to Carta, Synaptic, and PestoAI for supporting the show!
