Today we're announcing the new Opal to build the operating system for attention. 1 million people already use Opal every single day. We raised $10M. Personal AGI is coming.  The bottleneck won't be access to intelligence. It will be attention.

In Österreich sind Unternehmer_innen immer die Bösen. Weiß nicht woher die Steuern für das teurer werdende Pensions- und Gesundheitssystem in einem älter werdenden Land kommen soll. Wir wollen keine Ausländer rechts und keine Unternehmer links. Übrig bleibt der Wohlstandsverlust.

In 2017, I interviewed with Elizabeth Holmes to be Head of Finance at Theranos. I'm convinced I learned more in those 45 minutes than I did in 10 years of school and work. Today, she reports to federal prison to serve out an 11 year sentence for fraud. Time for a story 🧵:
