Happy Monday and welcome to your weekly guide to our (inevitable) transition toward AGI. I have been thinking a lot about working and hiring in a context where autonomous systems are already capable of replacing so many of our tasks. I would never have considered commissioning an artist weekly to create the newsletter cover image, but thanks to Dall-E and a few of my minutes, each edition can easily be illustrated with an original piece. While the metaphor does not yet extend to all other areas of work, I sense the amount of different capabilities that we are able to up-skill ourselves in, is only going to increase. The only limitation is our time and desire to learn and apply new skills.
Sequoia had some high profile guests and talks. Great picks!
I found it particularly interesting to hear Karpathy speak after his departure from OpenAI, this talk spurred my latest piece on what he calls the LLM OS that supposedly everyone is working on.
The whole Sequoia series is amazing - I think I've seen them all now and it's 100% bangers. Have to catch up to your last edition still. Let's meet up sometime!
