Calling all AI safety researchers. We’re inviting a small group to explore Dessa, our model trained on speech alone, and help us understand what it can and can’t do. We’d love to hear from you: block.xyz/dessa

The MOST obvious (but REALLY good) STARTUP ideas right now: 1. Zestimate for company data (what your data is worth to an AI lab) 2.

Okta for agents (who each agent is and what it's allowed to touch) 5. Marie Kondo for your company's data (clean it up so agents can use it) 6. FICO for agents (a trust score before an agent can spend money) 7. Geico for agents (insurance for when an agent makes an expensive mistake) 8. Datadog for agents (see every step your agents took) 9.

What if your Dot had its own crew? 👀 I've been using Dot(@ChatGPT), Instinct & @bot and kept wishing I could combine my favorite parts: Dot's intelligence, Instinct's proactiveness & Bot's multi-agent approach. So I built Dotverse A Mac app where you can create a crew of Dots with their own personalities & tasks. Launching soon! Definitely before GTA 6 😂 dotverse.app/
