Played around with Jev before I went to bed and I'm really impressed. It also fits so perfectly well for so many applications where traditional LLMs so far were just not viable for either speed or cost reasons. I bet we will see some fast followers. Quoting @CompleteSkeptic After co-inventing ChatGPT, I kept asking myself: why have superhuman chat models not led to AGI? I’ve spent the last 2 years in stealth building a new way to train models (RLCD), and a new type of frontier AI model that we are releasing today: Jev • 20-200x faster • 40-400x cheaper (w/ output toke… LLMs Related

Smart followers. Would love to see the same poll run on some other timelines. Quoting @KrisAbdelmessih Interest rates are 0, no dividends, stock is at $100. Assume 1 year to expiration. What is the maximum fair-value of the $100-strike straddle? If the straddle trades at its max value, what is the straddle’s delta? Related

Writer of Lenny's Newsletter and host of Lenny's Podcast, covering product, growth and career in tech. Previously a product lead at Airbnb. Also an angel investor and advisor.
Growth tactic #13: "🎈Go anti-professional: One of the most viral LinkedIn posts of all time came from a manager who swapped her corporate headshot for a casual, no-makeup photo. Pick a norm of your own and break it in public. You might talk about how much roles actually pay or admit that a big launch didn’t actually meet internal expectations. People are tired of perfectly curated, glossy exteriors of the professional world, so a bit of human messiness will stand out." More here: lennysnewsletter.com
Quoting @lennysan 60+ creative growth ideas Everyone's running the same growth playbook: high-production launch videos, paid influencers, AEO, social, maybe some (poorly attended) events. Your competitors are in the same channels competing for the same eyeballs. But attention goes to what people don't see coming. Th… Related

An illustration of how different the media environment was in 2001: no social media, so no way to e.g. cross-reference LinkedIn and Instagram and figure out which Marsh & McLennan employee was such an avid rock climber that he climbed down more than a dozen floors before falling. Related

Over the last 3 months I lost 300 followers (about 10%). I wonder if these were bots. I feel like within the last year Twitter engagement has gone from quite good to almost nothing. It sometimes feels like I'm shadow banned. Has anyone noticed the same? Related

China
Their words
The biggest misunderstanding is somehow that a group of people or even just one person runs the entire Chinese economy. It is far from the reality. It is a very complex, large economy, and even if there is an extreme form of political centralization, the economy is totally decentralized.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
