Ilya's new startup!

Ilya Sutskever, OpenAI’s former chief scientist, is launching Safe Superintelligence Inc., an AI startup “prioritizing safety over commercial pressures”. What’s SSI? Safe Superintelligence Inc. (SSI) aims to create a safe and powerful AI system, approaching safety and capabilities in tandem while avoiding distraction by management overhead or product cycles. Team? SSI is co-founded by Daniel Gross, a former AI lead at Apple, and Daniel Levy, who previously worked at OpenAI. Unlike OpenAI, SSI will not pursue partnerships with companies like Apple and Microsoft. What are they upto? Well, SSI’s first product will be safe superintelligence, and the company “will not do anything else” until then 🤐 Still no idea what this means but great team doing something, will be super exciting to see this pan out!

A lot of people start startups with some mission like openai had a moto of opensourceing high end ai solution but when tech cost comes into picture they have make adjustments and most of the time move away from original moto.

Great initiative but tech teams have costs. I hope they are able to figure out a product selling and expansion plans without getting affected by the so called “Tech Giants”.

AI lollipop

The startup I work at, in all of its existence, it has never given half a shit about AI. Now that the company is looking to raise its series C, over the last 2 months, all of the employees have been asked to build AI products so that the founders can sell this lollipop to investors and get a massive round. Guess what? it's working! We'll soon close the next round by selling random nonsense in the name of revolutionary AI technology.

Exploring Seed Funding Options for Our AI Innovation

I'm thrilled to share our latest developments in our startup: We launched our prototype and it's gaining momentum! Our previous product, currently in stealth mode, has remarkable insights. However, the GPU usage costs have skyrocketed. Our new goal? To build an AI platform that serves as a cost-effective hub for training AI models. No one's tackling this issue, so we are the first ones to solve this issue. We already have some ties with the microchip manufacturer. Here's the thing: While we've been self-funded until now, we're now exploring seed funding. But there's a catch – we're cautious about accelerators and VCs. I have seen them undervalue my mate's company and prioritize quick revenue over steady growth. So how should we go about it ? I'll drop an example post for much clearer problem statement.
