Isn't it interesting that the top 2 use cases of GenAI in the enterprise are augmenting/replacing the HIGHEST paid workers (AI copilots for engineers) and the LOWEST paid workers (AI support agents).
Me to daughter: “You’ve got a daddy-daughter trip freebie - where to? NYC? LA? Etc?” Eventually, daughter: Let’s just drive 35 miles away from home to a hotel, I just want to listen to music & read & chill on my iPad w/o my little brothers and order room service for dinner.
It’s a short list of folks that made the jump from VC to very successful founder / CEO: - Bipul Sinha (Rubrik) - David Velez (Nubank) - Aneel Bhusri (Workday) Any other notable ones?
Directly from a scaling CEO: “Handling some growth investors around a financing is like dealing w/ a procurement office.”
Almost every single deep tech founder I talk to credits Elon and SpaceX for helping them realize, "Oh, you can just go build really hard things." I think Anduril will have a similar impact. "Oh, you can just compete head-on with really big incumbents and win."

1/5 It’s a monumental day for @rubrikInc. Congratulations to @bipulsinha and the entire Rubrik team on being a publicly traded company! It has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career to be involved in Rubrik’s growth, from inception to IPO, and I’ll be celebrating…
Every single day, a new AI funding deal knocks your socks off. theinformation.com/articles/six-m… @KateClarkTweets @cognition_labs #devin
Big ups to old friend @bipulsinha, he's truly one of a kind. I was lucky to meet many years ago & he taught me so much even before he transformed from a VC to founder. Feeling nostalgic for our old chats: youtube.com/watch?v=kSjC5i…
Today we celebrate @rubrikInc officially becoming a publicly traded company. #RubrikIPO
Great co-hosting the NYC deep tech community at the @nTopology offices today and hearing from @PasteurLabs, @DiracInc, and @womp3D! Deep tech companies CAN and ARE being built EVERYWHERE
The latest AI news, if aggregated, seems to point toward: more open source, smaller models, cheaper models, models on the edge. Many predicted this would be the trend line, but perhaps not this quickly. Exciting!
Consumer media Legal AI startup idea: Aggregate & organize county transcripts of notable cases & feed text to a multi media AI to generate courtroom reenactments.
Surreal moment as an early-stage VC - one super early investment (Hashicorp) finally ends its run scooped up by IBM; and tonight Rubrik prices shares, which we were lucky to get via an early acquisition. Part luck, part poker!
Source: cloud data management startup Rubrik priced its IPO at $32 a share, above its expected $28-$31 range, raising $752M and valuing the company at $5.6B (CNBC) cnbc.com/2024/04/24/rub… 📫 Subscribe: techmeme.com/newsletter?fro… techmeme.com/240424/p47#a24…
News outlets reporting Rubrik priced their IPO at $32 / share (above the initial range of $28-$31 / share. This implies roughly a ~7x NTM revenue multiple. Trading will start tomorrow morning. More details below on different multiples for the company at different prices $RBRK
Excited to announce @HashiCorp is being acquired by @IBM! This will accelerate our mission of enabling multi-cloud automation, bring our products to a much broader audience. Thank you to our users, customers, partners, and employees! hashicorp.com/blog/hashicorp… (see important info)
Plot twist! A regulator made a great move. npr.org/2024/04/23/124…

Counterintuitively, in my experience, more dealflow does not necessarily yield better investments / returns. There seems to be a diminishing return with too much volume and networks that are large, but shallow. There's probably an ideal spot on this curve, but its hard to place…
Great to host Anduril's first investor @briansin at HQ today to celebrate yesterday's CCA win!
Wishing my former colleagues building generational advances in infrastructure and security tech at HashiCorp a smooth transition and all of the success in their next chapter. I'm so blessed and proud to have joined them on a journey that's changed how the world builds software.
