Balanced pov on the Washington wizards 10 games in.

One of the NBA's most interesting teams has completed 10 games — too early to make definitive conclusions but enough time for first impressions. What should we make of the Washington Wizards' performance so far? Story in @TheAthleticNBA.

Thrilled to be joining the board of @joinpursuit.

As AI changes how we all live and work, it's become clear to me that New York, and the country, needs a positive narrative about what AI makes possible. Pursuit is at the forefront of that story.

Pursuit teaches low-income New Yorkers to build with AI, and the results are life-changing. I've been inspired by builders who've gone from jobs paying around $40K to tech roles paying $100K+. A job like that changes things for a whole family, and for the communities around them.

If you're interested in getting involved (either in supporting the organization or in hiring builders) - shoot me a DM!

Huge news from portfolio company Collective (@CollectiveFin).

They just raised $100M to build the AI financial OS for solopreneurs / Businesses-of-One.

Growing fast (ARR +120%+) and already helped members save ~$350M in taxes, and this month they’re tracking to add 70%+ of last quarter’s ARR growth.

Hiring a lot. The solopreneur boom is real.

1/The moat just moved again.

Until recently, AI agents worked in short bursts. They finished a task and started the next one from scratch. As reliability improves, runtimes are stretching from hours → days → weeks → months.

That changes what “a great product” even means in a category.
