RobotGPT anyone?
I’m thrilled to announce a project that I consider the first steps towards it, a virtual environment to act as a foundational training ground for end-to-end models.
Next phase is using it to build and train models.

special thanks to @sentdex @chris_j_paxton @hasanunlu9

Founders: I once sat in a room and watched an investor board representative from a top-tier VC absolutely excoriate the two founders for essentially hiding what was obviously an extremely toxic relationship between them. She bluntly stated that had she known it was that bad, she never would have invested. The founders split and the company broke up shortly afterward.
The bottom line is this: figure out early if your co-founder relationships are toxic and then you’ve got to do something about it. Don’t wait until it’s too late for yourselves and your investors. If the founders don’t respect or appreciate what each other brings to the table, or one founder takes credit for all the wins and passes blame for all the setbacks, there is approximately a 0% chance the company will survive in the long run.

I know it is hard for founders to focus on reducing customer churn when your stomach is churning from watching the atrocities perpetrated by Hamas. It is hard to focus on growth while you're watching so much destruction. It is hard to focus on optimizing lifetime value when you're watching one of the most inhumane attacks in your lifetime. It is hard to be present when your head and your heart are elsewhere.
Take the time to care for yourself and others. Your morals matter more than metrics.

1/ At Spark, we believe the best way to understand is to build. To tinker. To push against the edges of a technology that’s still forming. There’s no better example of this than AI right now. So we are adding a Hacker in Residence for AI, and opening up the process.
