i'm just so, so pumped for the year that's coming, for what elon is introducing into the world.
Our second product is called Blindsight and it will, as the name suggests, enable even those who are completely blind or have never seen to see.
It is ready from an engineering standpoint. Just waiting on regulatory approval.

i guess humankind will die one day. technology won't.
everything we're building now -- the models, the machines, the systems, copies itself, improves itself, and doesn't need us to keep going.
we are the temporary part of this story. the technology is not.

everybody seems to be building on voice right now. some companies like: wispr flow, granola, elevenlabs, vapi, gradium, retell and yesterday subvocal
these aren't all solving the same problem, but it got me thinking. will voice become a major way we use ai, or will it stay useful mainly for specific tasks like calls, dictation, and meeting notes?
everybody is building on voice right now.
will voice be the next major frontier of applied AI? @tankots

if steve jobs were alive today, what would he bet on? idk, maybe vision pro, maybe ai, maybe something we haven't even thought of yet.
but i think i know what he wouldn't bet on.
a vertical touchscreen. he said it himself. your arm gets tired. it doesn't make sense.
and i don't think he would be happy with what apple is doing today. for the last five or ten years, it feels like they've been doing the same thing, just making it a little better every year. better cameras, better chips, better everything. but where's the next big thing? something that changes how we live or interact with technology?
and he wouldn't start by asking users what they want. he believed it was his job to figure out what people would want before they even knew it themselves.
- iPhone Duo is a flop
- MacBook touchscreen is a flop
- Apple homeview is useless
- AirPods are the same in years
- iPhones are the same in years
I want to give Apple money. A lot of money. They just don’t want it.
Why aren’t they going all in on the Vision Pro? Or a tiny portable device? Or just… AI?
The future of computers isn’t a device with a flat touchscreen and a keyboard.
Steve would agree, I think.

for the love of building software, you can take any software, reverse-engineer its whole architecture, and you can just build a cheaper and better version of the existing product.
just for the sake of love.

one sponsor says yes to put ads on us
today i spent the whole day asking myself what i’m doing and why. what if this fails? what if i can’t make it work?
and now, a few hours later, i’m just as excited as i was the day i started. that’s the weird part of building something. motivation won’t always show up, and sometimes your own thoughts will mess with you.
but don’t take every thought too seriously. they come and go, just like mine did today. so stick around. don’t let one bad day convince you to give up.

been thinking deeply about this and i still have the same qsn. why???
apple's thing is to always come late and do it better than everyone. so what's the better thing here?
We brought Touch to the Mac!
From the all-new iPad mini to the 14-inch MacBook Pro and iMac... and now MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display and Touch, creators have new tools to do their best work yet.

"we've done tons of user testing on this, and it turns out it doesn't work. touch surfaces don't want to be vertical. it gives great demo but after a short period of time, you start to fatigue and after an extended period of time, your arm wants to fall off. it doesn't work, it's ergonomically terrible."

im so dumbass who spent the past week figuring out how to do a startup. wrong move. what we're building isn't some huge thing that needs me to be a founder. it's distribution and growth. that's what i actually need to figure out.
