The post-agent business believes and embraces that software and cognitive/computer-based labor is going to zero. And so the post-agent business counter-positions its product, go-to-market, and strategy around context, attention, trust and brand to produce nfx.
I sat down with Michael Brown the CEO of Teamshares on the eve of their NASDAQ debut for a special edition More or Less ... it has been a hell of a ride over the last 7 years and more to come! (link in thread)
"There’s a huge amount of shovel-ready projects in the country, and no amount of AI job displacement will solve the fact that all of our bridges are falling down." @yrechtman's ideas for how to put AI-displaced citizens back to work
In typical fashion, hollywood and wall street are years behind tech and silicon valley. @mmlightcap can probably teach these folks a few things, if she's feeling generous :)
New: Hollywood talent agency CAA is partnering with its old friends at private equity firm TPG to invest in the businesses of YouTube stars, podcasters, etc. It’s starting with $250 million. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Taking $10M when you need $2M doesn't fund your success. It funds your inability to admit you were wrong for 5 extra years. @wquist
You could always hire a virtual assistant in the Philippines for $400/mo. Most people didn't. Same thing is happening with AI. The market for general intelligence tools is just power users who already pay for it via headcount. @justinbanusing
Goldman Sachs has a massive engineering team and is barely using AI in their investment bank. If that's where we are with the sophisticated end, the deployment decade hasn't even started. @yrechtman
Creators have negative CAC. The content that builds your audience is the same content that acquires your customer. You get paid to grow. This is core to how we think about our Creator Fund. The organic audience isn't just a nice marketing asset. It's a durable cost structure advantage that shows up in the margins before you ever touch paid.
Branding yourself as an 'AI product' is a liability now. The companies that win just say 'I save you 10 hours a week' and let the tech be invisible infrastructure. @CloutedHQ
The best investments are the ones where everyone hated the deal. Andreessen passed on Solana at $0.04. Showing up despite being tired is the actual alpha. @lessin on @petkevichdan Cars and Capitalists
reminder: you companies worth is directly related to how much value you create for customers. doesnt feel like it needs to be said, but here we are.

It's time to wear what we've all been thinking...
At SoftBank, some insiders are growing worried about Masayoshi Son's starstruck $60 billion bet on OpenAI bloomberg.com/news/features/…
Anthropic and OpenAI sending monks out from Rome to prosteletize and convert the heathens and teach them the word of AI g-d. History rhymes.
Anthropic suing the Trump admin while its co-founder preps a Vatican AI speech. Rome wasn't built in a day but the AI religion is moving fast. History rhymes harder than expected. @lessin
Pope Leo XIV’s launch of his first encyclical focusing on artificial intelligence next week will feature an unexpected guest: Christopher Olah, co-founder of Anthropic. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Nobody believes in you, so make them. Announcing our $7M seed round led by @slow.
Selling out 40,000 seats with zero existing followers isn't a content strategy, it's @CloutedHQ's formula for an era of distribution-first marketing. "The only thing remaining valuable is distribution and data. The Clouted team has built real infrastructure for a problem that every brand and creator in the world has but nobody has solved at this level." @lessin Today, Clouted is announcing their $7M round led by us, alongside @GoldHouseCo, @weekendfund, @ZVC_Official, @GondorCapitalIO, @IterativeVC, @AppWorks,@_surgeahead, and @speedrun.
“Caviar bumps.” Wine pairings. How to read the room. Welcome to tech bro etiquette school. on.wsj.com/4eUThoa
Couldn’t make it to our Etiquette School? We’ve got merch you can wear, or gift to the founders who need it most.
Slow Ventures ran a 4 hour etiquette class for founders. This is actually a brilliant idea. A non-trivial amount of founders (and vc's) could use some help in this department.
