We're Joining OpenAI

At this rate it’s better to start a company and get aquihired vs applying and getting hired.

Seems like OpenAI speed ran through the Facebook phase and are out of ideas

Au contraire, based on their recent hires, they're just beginning their Facebook phase. Expect to see a lot of ads 2 years from now, and expect to see a LOT of money being made by the company a year after that.

If they can maintain runway until then.

I think I am just slow today - but could you please elaborate?

I wrote about this idea here: https://digitalseams.com/blog/the-ai-lifestyle-subsidy-is-go...

Quick summary, I believe consumer AI experiences will feature ads because the profit opportunity is too large and company valuations depend on it. The hiring of Fidji Simo (ads at Facebook) at OpenAI + and just this week, Vijaye Raji/Statsig also point that way.

We’re in a golden period where AI results are ad-free.

One thing I’ve been doing is querying and storing results. For example, “what are the best books on X topic” for every topic I can possibly think that I may want to read about in the future.

I’ve found the results to be amazing if you give a sufficiently detailed prompt. I have enough reading to see me through to exit.
