I’ve been thinking a lot recently about how to optimize the onboarding for new apps, and think I have a pretty good example:

In a few years, we won't be able to distinguish between real and AI-generated images. It's a problem that adversely affects society from the highest levels of politics to your inter-personal gossip.

It’s time to build fun products.
53 years in and counting at @sequoia!
i'm an optimist who finds it easy to get excited by all kinds of ideas
but my take on the #1 most underrated application for AI?
-> fun
ten years ago, entertainment meant consuming content others made for us — movies, music, stories, characters, worlds
now, we make our own, thanks to products ranging from @SunoMusic to @OpenAI Sora
more creativity, more delight, more fun
and more transformational businesses to come

- we give devs tools to easily integrate Web Proofs into apps
- 3 different ways to generate Web Proofs
- simple to integrate new data sources
- code is open-source; we build in public; new features every Friday

Postcard utilizes App Attest indirectly as proof of photo and location, just some of the many use cases that would not be possible without client authenticity proofs!
Postcard allows anyone to capture an authentic moment in time. Every post consists of a signed photo and location. That signature, along with the App Attest certificate chain, is proof that the photo + location was taken with a genuine Apple device running an untampered app 👇

Dropping out of Stanford in your first few years - especially to start a b2b saas - is spiritually dead
Fade
The “dropping out of Stanford to build a startup” pipeline has been so optimized that now they are dropping out after the first day of class.
Soon the whole Stanford part will be purely symbolic. You’ll get the acceptance letter, forward it to YC, and never set foot on campus

Guys I hate to break it to y’all but this was real, this was actually about me
Just had a fascinating lunch with a 22-year-old Stanford grad. Smart kid. Perfect resume. Something felt off though.
He kept pausing mid-sentence, searching for words. Not complex words - basic ones. Like his brain was buffering.
Finally asked if he was okay. His response floored me.
"Sometimes I forget words now. I'm so used to having ChatGPT complete my thoughts that when it's not there, my brain feels... slower."
He'd been using AI for everything. Writing, thinking, communication. It had become his external brain. And now his internal one was getting weaker.
Made me think about calculators. Remember how teachers said we needed to learn math because "you won't always have a calculator"? They were wrong about that.
But maybe they were right about something deeper.
We're running the first large-scale experiment on human cognition. What happens when an entire generation outsources their thinking?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m beyond excited about what AI and AI agents will do for people in the same way that I was excited in 2009 when the App Store was launched.
But thinking out loud you got to think this guy I met with isn't the onnnnnly one that's going to be completely dependent on AI.

Millennials had RuneScape. Gen Z had Minecraft. And now Gen Alpha has Roblox.
But Roblox is different: it's the internet's first full-stack economic infrastructure with central banking, creator payouts, analytics, and ad exchanges

Today's decision markets can only evaluate a single proposal for each decision.
This doesn't scale.

My brain is so cooked I thought this was a react component
The book of Revelation uses a chiastic structure. Unless someone is aware of this it is highly likely whatever they deduce from the text is incorrect. Not only Rev, but many other verses, passages, chapters, are written in the same manner.
A chiasmus involves presenting a sequence of ideas and then repeating them in reverse order, creating a "mirror" effect. This reflection is achieved through the repetition of a word, often in a similar form, connecting each idea to its counterpart. The term chiasmus derives from the Greek letter chi, which resembles our letter X.
