The first cohort was an experiment to see what would happen if you gave people resources and set them loose. We ended up with four projects: an animated short film, a podcast series, essays, and a documentary film. Now, we're taking all our learnings into the next cohort :🧵👇🏾

Excited to announce that we’ve signed a 12-month commercial agreement with Morvdesk (morvdesk.com/), a Europe-based investment product manufacturer. Decide will provide specialized AI models, agents, and infrastructure, while both teams collaborate to build and deploy AI solutions for investment research and financial operations. Another step towards bringing our technology into more enterprise environments.

May never become commercially available but I really really appreciate the effort he puts into wowing people with technology. If you live in a society where the frontier of technology is constantly being pushed out, you don’t know how privileged you are

Never become a prisoner of one asset class. Learn equities, credit, options, currencies, derivatives, crypto & fixed income etc. Being financially agnostic is ultimately about expanding the universe of opportunities that you can monetize.

If the Caine Prize withdraws the award from Simba, then I propose that African writers boycott the prize. We cannot afford to be spineless in this fight against the erasure of writers whom racist platforms consider vulnerable simply because they have not been published or acknowledged in the West. They came for the Commonwealth Prize, and those people are now saying they are going to restrategize. We don’t even know what that looks like. The same thing is happening to the Caine Prize. Why are these people, who are so quick to put our stories through Pangram, not putting stories published in The New Yorker through Pangram? There has to come a time when we demand that the people who provide platforms for our work grow a spine and defend us. Because providing a platform for African writers and then failing to protect them when racist wolves come for them is deeply problematic.

We just completed training Nerve-1, our first AI model built entirely from scratch. Nerve-1 is a lightweight, ~34M-parameter model trained on over 23 billion tokens. It’s designed for intelligent routing, deciding how much reasoning effort a task requires and directing it to the most suitable AI model. It runs entirely on regular CPUs, making routing decisions in milliseconds. We estimate it could reduce our inference costs by at least 30%. Rolling out soon to all businesses and users on @trydecideAI

It's hard to think like this when you're in survival mode, but no matter what stage a company/entity is at, it needs to have two dedicated functions: - R&D to stay ahead of the curve; - A compelling lore to keep everyone, inside and outside the entity believing in the mission.

One thing people miss in sales is that it is difficult to sell to a company that deals with a lot of operational problems all the time. Not because they don't want your solution - but rather, they don't have time to evaluate your solution when there are fires everywhere.

One of the strongest tells when AI produces any kind of narrative/storytelling—an article, a landing page, a script, whatever—is that it will always tell, not just show. It still can’t help itself, yet.

Is it safe to say that Moonshot is, amongst other things, the spiritual successor of Social Media Week?

bruh life is long. you need to learn how to sit through hard days and not do or say anything stupid.

Random, the coastal road has served me well; I cannot picture my daily commute without it. It is also poorly finished, offering almost no safety. People attribute most accidents to speed, but poor design of that road is likely a cause.

Excited to join the Silicon Valley & The World Global Advisory Board, an initiative launched by @semafor alongside Co-Chairs Sam Altman of OpenAI, Jensen Huang of Nvidia, Satya Nadella of Microsoft, Lisa Su of AMD, Divesh Makan of ICONIQ, and Ruth Porat of Alphabet. Looking forward to bringing an African perspective to this global dialogue, championing alignment between the leaders building AI, the policymakers regulating it, and the businesses deploying it on the ground.

Huge congrats @Shalom_HeyEliy and the @LagosLifeApp team 🎉 Big moment for gaming. We’re cheering you on 🚀
