“Being at the leading edge of a field doesn't mean you have to be one of the people pushing it forward. You can also be at the leading edge as a user. It was not so much because he was a programmer that Facebook seemed a good idea to Mark Zuckerberg as because he used computers so much."

2) The Technological Republic (Book) - Alexander C. Karp

In part argues that startups and government used to work together on impactful technology to a greater extent than today. He argues there has been some lack of focus on longer term technological advancement.

3) In regard to anti-aging R&D, this tweet touches a truth, that exposure to sci-fi has caused a reluctance to the idea, which epistemologically isn’t the soundest way to base opinions.

A potentially timely product/technology to work on is robotics. I have for example referenced in a past edition how FigureAI, a humanoid robotics company, was in talks to raise $1.5B. A major company working on this is Tesla. Bob McGrew, which according to his X profile, was former Chief Research Officer at OpenAI, early exec at Palantir, early employee at Paypal, said, “Robotics companies now are where LLM companies were five years ago. Sometimes in the next five years we will see the ChatGPT moment for robots.” (Source) (Full video)

StratupAI Idea: Robotic Assistance for Disabilities

“Assistance for individuals with disabilities in their daily activities is often limited, leading to frustration and dependence on others. A startup could develop robotic solutions to assist people with disabilities in tasks such as mobility, personal care, and household chores. These robots could be designed with customizable features to address specific needs, whether it is helping with mobility, medication reminders, or communication. By leveraging robotics technology, individuals with disabilities can gain more independence, improve their quality of life, and have greater control over their day-to-day activities. The demand for robotic assistance for people with disabilities is significant, offering the potential to make a meaningful impact on the lives of many individuals.”
