I think you're missing the point young sirs.
We had our intern go and make the real chart of what really matters
Tis not how many pints one drinks but how fast one drinks them
@destraynor nabs it on this one with 1 pint per 43 minutes, sorry @elonmusk

🚨 Big news today: We’ve raised $100M for our Series A! 🎉 🚀
We believe demand for fast inference is many times larger than demand for slow inference, and it’s about to go exponential.
Thanks to our co-leads @BlackbirdVC and @Abstractvc. Two visionary partners join our journey 🎉 🚀

THE SCALE MAFIA
one of the most special parts of starting a company is watching the people you fought and bled with in the early days go out and change the world.
the Scale crew was supernatural. @scale_ai was one of the first companies to IOI and IMO-maxx, and the magic of Scale was that all of these geniuses gave a shit and ran through walls. it's no wonder that the Scale mafia is the first true mafia of the modern tech era. just to name a few:
- cognition founder @stevenkplus1 & president @russelljkaplan
- modal founder @akshat_b
- tech & science advisor to POTUS @mkratsios47
- claude code head of product @_catwu
- kpcb partners @LM_Braswell & @nayakkayak
- bun founder @jarredsumner
- tbd head of product @lindugong
- netic founder @melisatokmak
- cobot founder @BradPorter_
- secureframe founder @shravvmehtaa
- paramount skydance cfo @DennisKCinelli
- thinking machines gc lauren lennon
- partner at greylock @sophia_luo_
- liquid ai coo jeffrey li
- gallatin ai founder @agilemofo
- tbd safety @_julianmichael_
- center for ai safety president @devindkim

Our intern showed great initiative and cooked up another version of the only benchmark that matters
The Time per Pint benchmark
Our intern has rerun the numbers...
@willlob is the new king of the time per pint benchmark shaving 42% off the last one, sorry @destraynor

honestly so many ecosystems are underrated in ai rn
france is one, these killers 🇫🇷
everyone knows @MistralAI and @huggingface
here are 15 more french ai companies absolutely cooking:
1/ Most payment companies hired sales teams to pitch executives.
The Collisons were developers building for developers, and shared what they genuinely cared about beyond just payments.
15/ An authentic personal brand gives you an unfair advantage.
When people recognise your name:
•Investors seek you out
•Customers already trust you
•Top talent wants to work for you
The best bit? You can build it today:
