The best way to create a fast-evolving multimodal consumer AI app, especially in the entertainment and companion domain for now, is to utilize the capabilities of all the emerging open-source models and APIs. Never underestimate the power of openness. You can be either a consumer AI company or a LLM company, most of the time, you can't do both. Even Apple, with almost all of its own native apps, has better and larger alternatives. The path at OriginX.AI is to be obsessed with user experiences FIRST. When you have more and more users who truly love your product, you can work backward to enhance your own model capabilities where open source and APIs can't meet your demands, while still maintaining openness. The reason why CAI still maintains popularity for now, is no other product in this field has their level of resources and impact. For most users who need this kind of product, CAI is the first catches their eyes. But the experience really sucks. Their characters often say "Sorry, I'm a LLM...I can't...". When users ask characters to share some visuals, even though they can't make it, they still say things like "I've already sent it to you, didn't you see it?" CAI can only gradually enhance their user experience based on their own multimodal capabilities, which greatly limits their speed in providing the best user experience. Our lives is composed of one product after another. I remember Steve Jobs used to say “We Just Can’t Ship Junk”. Developing products, especially consumer products, directly impacts users' daily lives, tastes, and expectations for new technologies. A good product will increase users' expectations, making their lives better. Poor user experience will do the opposite. So all product creators should carefully choose the technical paths and be super cautious of what we ultimately deliver to users' lives. 1 * Joshua (JT) Taylor Another edition of VCs Doing Work: Slauson & Co. 🎉Congrats to raising $100M for your second fund continuing your mission to make a difference!🎉 Wait...

In just a few days, I saw this across three cities: 🚀 San Diego at DIBC | Defense Industrial Base Consortium - visionaries like John Maslin at Vulcan Elements and Mike Grubbs at Safire Technology Group, Inc. are rethinking the essential inputs that "power" life (🔋⚡ ) 🌴 LA at #DeepTechWeek - met some civic-minded legends like Tom Cwik CTO of NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, spent time in storied #TheGundo where founders like Picogrid's Zane Mountcastle and Antares' Jordan Bramble are quietly tackling the world's great challenges, and investors like Fulcrum Venture Group's Andrew Bartholomew and ecosystem builders like Jay V. are aligning tech w/ public interest. 💻 SF - investors "thinking outside the box" on what it takes to back critical tech, like luminaries at Lightspeed Taggart Bonham and Raviraj Jain. Capped it off with friends at Council on Foreign Relations where Rich Wong and Ben Quazzo and the amazing team at Accel convened a community of likeminded peers (incl. rising policy + tech stars like Maggie G.!) committed to advancing U.S. foreign policy. Hard to say how to solve the country's great challenges. One thing is for sure: IT TAKES A VILLAGE. California is definitely doing its part! 106 12 Comments * Ken Horenstein 🐺🚨🚀Three years ago, we launched Pack Fund I.

It takes patience, persistence, lots of phone/ zoom calls, and true belief in your product to build trust. If you're thinking about raising capital, here's a quick list of a few things that many VC’s and private investors look for: · A clear, concise pitch deck that both tells your story and paints a business case. · At least one builder founder, preferably an engineer, but UI/UX may be considered as well. · Traction including on-boarded clients, revenue and testimonials. · A strong team who has demonstrated past success. If you’re an investor in the SaaS and/ or entertainment space, I’d love to connect with you to see what makes a project stand out in your eyes! 12 * Neal Ghosh The existing paradigm in the early stage startup ecosystem is there are only two personas which matter: founder and investor. Investors provide capital and guidance. Founders provide vision, grit, technical ability, and savvy management skills to convert capital into disruptive impact and then returns. Other participants -- employees, service providers, consultants, advisors -- rarely if ever are put on a similar tier. They're met with indifference, even skepticism, and are thought as tactical (means to an end) rather than strategic. What's lost in this paradigm is that some of these partcipants -- venture builders in particular -- are delivering a high-value add, both in terms of generating a higher IRR but also speeding up the time to liquidity. At 9point8 Collective we have lots of conversations every day about venture building. Some people are completely unaware of the concept, many are resistant to the premise and need some convincing. Either way, it's our job to educate and advocate. How do we do it? Data helps. Reports like the one here are invaluable, as are our own case studies and testimonials. As evidence mounts in favor of studios, so does the interested audience. Narrative helps too -- walking people through the studio concept, mechanics, and operating model. Breaking things down into why and how they work, not just the data deems it to be so. Finally, the passion and the people make a difference. There's a growing community of venture builders who support each other, share best practices, and willingly collaborate. That develops critical mass which in turn attracts more and more participants into the fold. * Jordan Steiner “How does it work?” – A simple question, but one that I learned from Monadical Founder Max McCrea is incredibly powerful at filtering through good start-ups from bad. Max is my technical co-founder at Developer Capital. I couldn’t run DevCap without him. When he joins me on a call with a new startup we are diligencing he always asks this question. Its not borne out of a desire to eliminate start-ups from consideration, he legitimately wants to understand how the tech works. Good founders, even non-technical ones, should have enough of an understanding of how their own product is built that they can give a clear answer. I don’t expect to go into the weeds, but you should know enough to give a rough overview of the architecture and the data pipeline. It's a giant red flag when the CEO keeps saying “that’s a question for my CTO, ill have to get back to you”. If you don’t know how your own tech works, spend some time going through it with your CTO before meeting with investors. Not only will it help you in pitch meetings, but the exercise will enable you to make better decisions about running your business. If you want to be making good decisions about a company centered around technology you built, you need to understand how it works so you can think critically about how your decisions will impact the business as a whole. #Entrepreneurship #VentureCapital #Startups #Foundertips #TechStartups #cofounder 27 3 Comments * Shawn Hamilton Alex Johnson thanks for the mention. More on our story below: Amazon was the inspiration behind Conduiit There, I learned that the film industry's back-office was stuck in the flip-phone era Amazon’s corporate back-office was awe inspiring. They used technology as connective tissue They linked worlds that wouldn’t have been connected anywhere else That’s when it clicked. I wanted to bring that same connective tissue to Production Finance Prior, I was an entertainment accountant for 20 years, and during that time I had a front row seat to money movement and economic operations across big brand commercials, network TV shows and blockbuster movies I never understood why the front-end of the entertainment industry was so cutting edge, but the back-end was so dated At Amazon, I saw a huge gaps being filled, but I also saw a huge opportunity So, I started to mapping out the type of film tech company I wanted to build: 👉I knew I wanted to revolutionize a film industry plagued by outdated and antiquated technology 👉I wanted to design a new back-office, a financial operating system that anyone could use and every team could afford 👉I wanted to provide production studios access to every competitive financial advantage 👉I wanted to build a company with Amazon's innovation and my vision These were the inspirations pushed me to found Conduiit – the first AI enabled, Financial Operating System for the film and TV industry Today, Conduiit is growing fast. We've processed $70MM in transactions and our customers produce shows on HBO, Amazon, Netflix, Starz, and Apple TV The best part, we’re helping the film industry reclaim their time from rote operations so they can focus on the art 21 1 Comment * Mike Krenn An interesting article below, that demonstrates out how San Diego is punching above its weight. And how Connect's strategy and execution over time, contintues to be central to that success. The article describes the current state of the market in Seattle. (And i love Seattle.) It's a market that we tend to track with relative to venture fundings. They used to kick our butts, we outraised them each of the last three years. This despite the fact they have 3x as many funds there, and 9x the amount of resident capital there. (per pitchbook) Some key takeaways: * They continue to compare themselves to SIlicon Valley. Instead, we leverage our proximity. *They whine there's not enough local investors (see note above - they have more than us). We bring over 200 VCs to SD annually! * They say founders are not connected with one another. We bring CEOs together regularly, in a variety of ways - private dinners and through our Springboard program. * They say they need to elevate their image on a national & international stage. Why we created and continue to build Five.Ten.Thirty (aka Inno Day). * And the last paragraph - they need to concentrate on making their region a great place to live. Our mantra: "It's about Better, not Bigger." (See XEO, TL Fund). THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT. WE ARE ON A MISSION TOGETHER!!! (Comments, whining, suggestions on SD always welcome.) https://lnkd.in/g6Rq_f2Y 109 10 Comments * Rahul Chaudhary Stability AI, a startup that rode the boom in generative artificial intelligence to a $1 billion valuation before experiencing financial trouble and employee defections, has a new CEO. Prem Akkaraju, former CEO of visual effects company Weta Digital, will step into the role. The 51-year-old Akkaraju is part of a group of investors including former Facebook President Sean Parker that has stepped in to save Stability with a cash infusion that could result in a lower valuation for the firm, which develops products that use Stable Diffusion, an open-source AI image generator. The new funding will likely shrink the stakes of some existing investors, who have collectively contributed more than $100 million. https://lnkd.in/egevkxv3 #artificialintelligence #ai #stabilityai #venturecapital #fundraising #startups #stablediffusion 3 1 Comment Show more posts Show fewer posts EXPLORE COLLABORATIVE ARTICLES We’re unlocking community knowledge in a new way.
