What I’m working on …

In my last post, I mentioned that I’m a free agent and looking for and figuring out what’s next. Take a peek at my wish list of things to work on next if you missed that.

In the event of figuring out what’s next and learning AI I came up with a fun idea. The verdict is out if it pays off.

I invented an AI Cofounder called, Z. And Z is powered by GPT-4. I had an idea to see how much faster AI could make me from idea to launching an MVP. Turns out, pretty fast.

Introducing Moonshot Ventures

Teaming up with my AI Cofounder Z, we're diving headfirst into the exciting world of Moonshot Ventures. Our mission? To create super useful AI tools that make life easier for venture capitalists and startups. Most importantly, match founders much more efficiently to venture capital by removing bias. Our first creation, AI Associate, is all about helping VCs spot those hidden gems in the startup world, and quickly too! The best part? We're building it all out in the open, so everyone can learn about AI and join me on this wild adventure. Come along as I blend innovation and learning. This all is one big experiment and that’s what life is all about.

New Music

There’s one universal language I know we all speak and it’s music.

A new-ish track from Logic and Norah Jones - Yeah, I never thought this duo would exist but we’re in wild times. This just feels good. Work out to it. Do some deep work to it. It’s a good beat and a chill vibe.


Thanks for reading.
