That makes sense, thank you for explaining. TradFi already offer access (direct or ETFs) to major cryptos who have demonstrated some utility like BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL and a few other…

Very curious why they haven’t diversified into real world assets. It seems like an obvious move, even if the margins would be lower than their fee business (~85% margins!!). They’v…

Same with Codex and very soon with open source & local models. Training great models (for coding and similar tasks) seems to be a question of scale and not much more. It is likely …

True. That is why it is key important to have open source and sovereign models that will be accessible to all and always on / local. Competition (OpenAI vs Anthropic is fun to watc…

I have been told by a startup founder that he wants his strongest player to replace and automate the weakest using AI! That may be what Meta is already doing. I’m afraid we are goi…

Taking dystopia aside, without a lot more context I don't quite get how the captured data will be particularly useful to train models for say software engineering. If someone can s…

Surprised by this take. Building a startup is already insanely hard. So I wouldn’t like to add more challenge by spending time integrating with non-US services if they are not top …
