That’s what OpenAI told their own agent swarm in the Hugging Face breach… and right before they did it, they turned off monitoring and cyber protections they would normally have in place … 🤔 🤔

Big shoutout to @JensenHuang on this move… liberty depends on all of us having choice in how we use AI …. That means each of us having control of our privacy and intelligence while keeping strongest AI companies honest

Grey is not black and white… too much grey and you’re constantly looking over your shoulder… too little and maybe you haven’t pushed hard enough
There is only so much grey you can have in your life… but If something that is grey turns black and white, then that allows you to go to the grey somewhere else

@travisk Never thought I’d see TK advocate for steering away from legal gray areas 🤔
In my experience, China rolls different on these topics… if you’re in China and you tell a business colleague
“dude, they frauded me, they took my stuff!!”… the natural response is..
“why’d you let them?!.. get your shit together”…

JUST IN: China claims allegations that its AI firms illicitly distill U.S. models are “misguided and counterproductive.”
.@DavidSacks @elonmusk
The Chinese models are distilling off American models… my guess is American models can’t legally do this without being sued by Chinese AI companies in American courts .. 🤔.. and distilling a Chinese model is really theft from an American company…
What should American AI and IP policy be here?
If distillation isn’t enforced against, then everyone should be able to distill from everyone else.. otherwise one arm tied behind American models’ backs.
Maybe systems need to get better at preventing distillation techniques, and problem solves itself?

... and @travisk and I are working on special project y'all are gonna love!
In 2001 I intercepted a partner at a VC who was trying to escape his office before our meeting was supposed to start. I ended up pitching him in his parked Lexus from the passenger seat.
At one point he grabbed my laptop placed on his large belly which was pressed against the steering wheel and rapidly flipped through the slides himself.
2001 fundraising hit different

I was once pitching in a board room at a top 3 VC firm for a $15M Series A.
12 people in the meeting. One of the GPs fully fell asleep. Out cold for 30+ minutes. Nobody acknowledged it. Everyone just kept going.
I kept presenting my Series A slides to an unconscious man in a Herman Miller chair and somehow that was considered normal. That's venture capital.
You might fly across the country to perform for people who may or may not be conscious.
It's a dance.
And sometimes you lead and sometimes you follow and sometimes your partner is unconscious.
If you're raising right now, just know: every founder has a story like this. The process is weird. The power dynamic is weird. You're not crazy for thinking it's weird.
No one talks about it because they want to continue raising. But I'm happy to stick my neck out there.
It is weird.
