Where AI & Blockchain Infrastructure Intersect
Modern day slaver. He ensl*ves his employees for 14+ hrs a day
Very cool. Congrats on nailing the use case 😊
This guy is an employee abuser….
I love my Sol Reader. One of the best gadgets I've ever purchased. My reading time was almost non-existent over the last four years and now I'm reading a book a week.
Just came back from the tweet. You are looking at hell. No work life balance. Bro you are a loner does not mean everyone is. Get a life.
9am to 11pm weekdays and expected crunch on weekends. Is this even illegal? Slave labour, but typical of an Indian boss.
This guy abuses his employees. 9am-11pm work days and 6-7 days a week.
Would be great if it had spreeder built in!
Is this a prank?
Really like this idea! Sales in Europe?
Well there is a trade off. Flipping pages, the smell and tactile feel of books. That can't be replicated, at least not yet, by tech. That said this could be useful for people.
@@methane1027 The tech I was thinking of would be virtual reality indistinguishable from reality.
will tech bros ever stop solving problems that don't exist?
The advantage is, you wear the entire library on your nose.
@@jaywulf the entire library came for free with your eyeballs
Will modern day kids ever stop whining about tech innovation? This product enhances an activity and makes it more approachable, convenient, distraction-free and comfortable. What a sin, eh?
We get closer to WALL-E every day 🤖

did anyone notice that alien keyboard

looks cool
finally, a new fintech startup that isn’t a ponzi scheme
Am a programmer with no AI background, but i feel very encouraged to immerse myself into it as I had thought it to be too complex to learn and would rather hire.
Great insights from Brett and Suhail! As the founder of BlepCo, I'm focused on transforming utility management and promoting sustainable practices for consumers. I appreciate Initialized Capital's commitment to supporting innovative startups. I’d love to connect and explore potential synergies! Keep up the great work!"
First in the room
Great work.
A startup for "meeting up with friends" has always been a meme, a tarpit idea... but here comes such a nice surprise with great execution, an amazing product, and story! Thanks for sharing it with us!
Initialized Capital, you're a rising star on RUclips
Its only meant for the rich to get richer
Great video!
Super Dope.
Wow, the comments here are so negative. No one is forcing anyone to live there. It's for those who WANT to live car-free. There are thousands and thousands of developments where you can have your vehicle. There is precisely one of these types of development. If there is a demand for it, it will succeed. If it is a success, they will build more and more of these. Let the market decide. I wish them great success.

My dream company
Thank you for an interesting and frank video! Especially about the first demo and the first reaction of users! We at JetSoftPro, a software service, also work a lot with AI and understand that the success of artificial intelligence lies in constant training.
Congratulations
Hopefully, these guys do better than deep space industries and planetary resources. The launch prices are dropping to a point to make it worth doing.
He sounds 💯 like a woman!
I am the principal engineer in charge of our AI development efforts. We have built our own custom agentic framework to run through processes with tools and communicate with our research teams using conversational agents. It is fascinating to see the parallels between the problems you have solved. The lessons you have learned match very closely to our experience.
Fantastic
High bit for the win
Hello. Are you funding startups that are buying majority stakes in undervalued energy businesses?
Sidewalk Labs would have been the best thing to happen to Toronto. Good to see someone is bringing this neighborhood model to cities.
We should start mining this guy, hes shaped like an asteroid
This video pulled me out of depression, and activated sage mode. God bless 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Me too!
I love this, its inspiring.
I love this idea and would love it more if the residents could own the units. That way the people who live there could benefit from the wealth they are creating rather than exporting it to some capital group on wall street, where it wont do them any good. Americans will keep getting poorer if there are fewer and fewer pathways to property ownership.
They are working on that with subsequent neighborhoods, but that proved too complicated for their first neighborhood, which they needed to finish by a certain time.
What an inspiring woman! thank you Tracy!
I was today years old when I found out a car free city called cul de sac existed. I am planning my visit right now!
