Meet Dessa, our AI model trained from scratch on nothing but speech.
We believe speech is the natural interface for technology. So we built Dessa.
And we’re inviting AI safety researchers to explore Dessa.

Meet Dessa by @Block.
It continues to blow my mind. The most real AI voice I’ve experienced.
Just put the sound on and listen.
→ trained entirely on human speech
→ full duplex, listens while it speaks
→ understands timing, emotion, laughter + pauses
Congrats @RagavanThurair and team. A real breakthrough.

Few asked. Yes, all our assets for @CashApp tags are AI generated.
That doesn’t mean it’s easy. Or one-shotted though.
We invest a ton in art direction, make each one a unique world, test way more concepts and even build characters based on our team’s likeness.
The fun part is we get to make much weirder stuff.
Ideas that would have been prohibitively expensive go live in weeks.

spending more time on ebay for mood boards. what’s old is new.
60s counterculture became 90s commercial psychedelia. feels like we’re entering a third wave: loose, weird, unmistakably human visuals as a counterweight to AI polish. fruitopia knew ✨

Few goodies from ComplexCon Lightning Lake.
Beautiful new piece of hardware added to the @Square lineup today: Kiosk.
Perfect combo of hardware, software and intelligence.

Team is on fire. Never have I seen us spin up something so fast at such a high bar for quality, demo'ing every week. Can't wait for ya'll to see it.
Some things don't make sense.
Bitcoin does.
Yep, ordered them all tags @CashApp
Another launch: @CashApp is now available in Spanish.
We rewrote a ton of the app for this. AI translated. Human reviewed. Support included.
If your phone is set to Spanish, Cash will automatically update over the next week.

Past couple months we’ve quietly overhauled our entire onboarding funnel at @CashApp.
→ More ways in. P2P, Neighborhoods, Tags, soon Borrow.
→ Shorter, faster flows based on where you came in.
→ ML-powered next best actions to drive activation.
Not the sexiest work, but really really matters.

@CashApp Tags hit the runway at New York Fashion Week.
Really excited about this Earners pilot rolling out.
Customers can now sell goods and services straight from their personal account in @CashApp.
No separate business account. No fees. And everything you earn gets tracked in one place.
Incredibly complex problem to solve. Huge credit to @FintechKristen, @aphexddb + team. Tough one to crack.
