Introducing our State of Markets pt 2, along with a companion podcast where we unpack the data and discuss what comes next.
Tech is the everything cycle.
Supply: putting the buildout in context, just passed railroads as % of GDP. The wisdom of Elon is real: the factory (or the datacenter!) is the product.
Demand: diffusion is so, so early. Median AI vendor spending in the top 1% of companies is 8x that of the top 10%. Only about 30% of S&P 500 companies report a quantified AI impact, which means there’s a substantial opportunity in connecting models to a company's data and workflows. Diffusion into companies is one of the main themes of the next 5 years.
We’re entering the agent work period. Only a few million users today, but applicable to billions of internet users with massive surplus created. META/GOOG monetize US users at $200+ per year today. Agent opportunity is much higher.
Mega-trends the next 5 years: Consumer agents, Robotics, Autonomy, AI x bio, Personal health, Diffusion into enterprise, New era of American Dynamism.

The only thing worse than having the CEO knee-deep in building stuff with AI is not having the CEO knee-deep in building stuff with AI.

It's striking how concentrated the AI revolution is. Even though starting startups has spread worldwide in the last couple decades, this wave of tech is as concentrated in the Bay Area as the last two big waves (semiconductors and the internet).
Insightful analysis from @shreyanj98 on 2026 Unicorn Market Cap (data from @CBinsights)
2025 = Dec 31 2025/Jan 1 2026
Looked at 👀
*Private company unicorn market cap by year
*Bay Area is the GenAI supercluster with 91% of global AI private market cap in a 1 hour radius!!
Proud of the Resource Commercial Real Estate team this morning volunteering with @SFMFoodBank.
Together we packed 19,000 pounds of food into 999 bags for people across the Bay Area. Great organization doing important work every day.

someone vibe coded a 3d city where every github developer is a building
more commits = taller building.
more repos = wider base.
lit windows = recent activity

Map of company hubs in San Francisco 🇺🇸

ALT It highlights distinct sectoral hubs: creative tech in the Presidio, SaaS and social media giants in SoMa, and the emerging "AI District" in the Mission and Potrero Hill. The visualization illustrates the 21st-century shift of talent from Silicon Valley to urban environments, emphasizing how physical proximity facilitates the "Network Effect" for innovation and venture capital.
Quick coffee this morning turned into a conversation with the Mayor about enabling companies to grow in SF, and how PermitSF helps reduce friction for businesses investing here.
Proud of our Mayor for fighting the good fight☕️

Proud to have helped Chalk find their new HQ in Union Square!
Love seeing innovative teams double down on San Francisco, the energy, the talent, the momentum are all here.
Congrats to Marc Freed-Finnegan and the Chalk team on your next chapter!
AI company Chalk just leased 15,000 square feet in a building on Stockton Street, as Union Square's ‘boom loop’ continues.

SF held strong and the most important element was community
Yesterday, I spoke to San Franciscans about a potential federal deployment in our city. I said then what I have said since taking office, that keeping San Franciscans safe is my top priority.
Late last night, I received a phone call from the President of the United States. I told him the same thing I told our residents: San Francisco is on the rise. Visitors are coming back, buildings are getting leased and purchased, and workers are coming back to the office.
We have work to do, and we would welcome continued partnerships with the FBI, DEA, ATF, and U.S. Attorney to get drugs and drug dealers off our streets, but having the military and militarized immigration enforcement in our city will hinder our recovery. We appreciate that the president understands that we are the global hub for technology, and when San Francisco is strong, our country is strong.
In that conversation, the president told me clearly that he was calling off any plans for a federal deployment in San Francisco. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem reaffirmed that direction in our conversation this morning.
My team will continue to monitor the situation closely, and our city remains prepared for any scenario.
I am profoundly grateful to all the San Franciscans who came together over the last several days. Our city leaders have been united behind the goal of public safety. And our values have been on full display—this is the best of our city.
💡 Excited to be speaking at the 2025 CoreNet Global Summit in Anaheim (Oct 27–29)!
Together with Tracy Hawkins @OpenAI, we’ll lead a hands-on lab:
AI Design Lab: Examples, Applications & CRE Innovation
We’ll go beyond theory, showing how AI can actually transform portfolio strategy, workplace planning, and decision-making in real time.
If you’re in CRE, this one’s for you. Let’s design the future of real estate, one prompt at a time.

1️⃣AI isn’t leveling the playing field, it’s widening it.
Top performers are racing ahead, while others risk falling behind.
The WSJ nailed it: AI amplifies the great, not the average.
So what do we do about it? 👇
5️⃣If you’re in CRE and want to stay ahead, start learning now.
Not just the tools, but the thinking.
We’re building that foundation at Resource.
Let’s make sure no one gets left behind.
