Hi Casters. USV stopped at the gas station last year and now that we've turned the new engine on, we thought we'd share that news https://blog.usv.com/2024-usv-core-fund

This week's OH @ USV: We've been talking about what happens when code meets biology, whether algorithms can replace scientists, who's liable when bots cause harm, generative UIs, and content curation via agents.🧵

This Meeting Could Have Been A Podcast - and now it is. This week we transformed our Oct 21 AI team meeting into an algorithmically distilled episode of USV Radio. We cover multi-agent systems, decentralized training, and how we're thinking about investing in the space: https://soundcloud.com/thelibrarian-46645069/oh-usv-how-to-invest-in-ai-multi-agent-learning-decentralized-training-video-games

Developed these OH's live on the Every AI&I podcast with @danshipper. Dan pushed us to dig deeper beyond just a one shot prompt, so here's a thread with the key insights we landed on from last week. Full podcast going live soon.👇 (this is a delayed crossposting from X from 10/18/24)

Hi Casters. We used granola to capture the transcript of our most recent USV weekly meeting on AI and then used Notebook LM to convert it into a 15min podcast. I just listened to it and its pretty accurate. https://soundcloud.com/thelibrarian-46645069/oh-usv-how-to-invest-in-ai-multi-agent-learning-decentralized-training-video-games

Hi Casters. We got an XBloom machine at @usv and we've been enjoying excellent pour over coffee in the office. Today my daughter sent me the recipe she uses in her home in LA and I opened it in my XBloom app and made it her way. I love that

First time seeing @spenser IRL in 8 (???) years…I think? Appropriate to reconnect back at @usv, the last time we were in the same place together was when he “externed” with me for a day to help me come up with ideas for the USV network 😆
