Text DoorDash proactively places your burrito order Said burrito is delivered to you via drone AGI. Congrats to @AayushSheth8 @KakanuruSathvik and the entire team for the launch and all the epic work put into this. A certain banger.

We're proud to announce a new, over-subscribed $50M fund. Fourteen years ago, betting on students sounded a little crazy. We never thought so, and we’re still at it. Thank you @eringriffith for telling our story in today’s @nytimes. nytimes.com/2026/09/29/techn…

Our newest partners 🚀 @hesspresso_ , @miakrishh, and Mahi Joshi have joined Lux, bringing deep expertise across defense and national security, AI and the physical world, and capital formation. More on each of them here: luxcapital.com/news/lux-cont…

Thrilled to welcome @miakrishh to the @Lux_Capital team! She's built trust with some of the best builders in the industry and she's just getting started -- excited to have her onboard ⚡️🚀

Mia is a secret weapon in SF and global tech investing circles, and I am so glad she's joining us @Lux_Capital to double down ever harder on all things AI. Expect checks to be written in T-Minus three, two…

I’ve joined @Lux_Capital. I'll continue investing in the brightest and boldest founders across AI apps, infra, and the physical world. Lux is an amazing firm built by an incredible group of people, and I can’t wait to share that magic with more founders. To the folks at CRV, who took a chance on me early, thank you. You taught me the craft and backed me every step of the way. I am deeply grateful to the founders who have let me be a small part of their stories to date. If you're building something ambitious, I'd love to hear from you!

I dropped out of high school at 17 to build my first startup. Now, at 20, I'm thrilled to share that @TryOmenAI has raised $41.5M in total funding to build intelligence protecting the world's most critical AI compute infrastructure.

Who's gonna be at @aiDotEngineer in SF next week? Join @tastelabs across two tracks to hear about data quality in subjective domains and how to measure AI slop!

Come check out one of the best industrial companies in SF and chat all things heavy equipment, data centers, and fluid technologies. BTW, we're hiring 😉

Super excited to be hosting our first Built Different event this Friday 5/8 in SF! We're bringing together founders and executives to talk through the topic on everyone's mind - what does it mean to build an AI-native company? We have a few spots left to learn from @helloitsaustin @chintanturakhia @mabrahamsen and more!

seeking AI Engineers. not just any AI engineer, one who: - turns model output from slop to *chef's kiss * - obsesses over evals and data quality - hates purple gradients - loves creativity - geeks out on harnesses and test scaffolding - believes memory is the great lock-up in AI - enjoys context & search problems we're hiring for multiple roles. some will work on search, indexing, and embeddings, crawling, scraping, extracting. others on judges, verifiers, and classifiers. others on data pipelines. others on research. all will touch the hard problems of design and creativity. all need to believe in the mission of ending AI slop. based in SF! DM to apply.

BTW, DoorDash's acquisition price for Metis was $150M, all cash. Metis only has ~10 employees, and did not raise institutional capital after the YC S25 program afaik. Incredible outcome for a ~1 year old company, congrats!

Just over six months ago, we led the seed round for @withmetisai. As we spent time with @aryanxshah, Aayush, and Marcus getting the company off the ground, it was clear that they were a team that we had to be in business with. It's no surprise that the folks at DoorDash felt the same way, first as a significant early customer and now as they announce the acquisition of Metis. Huge congrats to the team, thrilled to have been part of the journey @CRV! @miakrishh @reidRMC

I'm dropping out of school to join Cursor as a full-time software engineer. I wrote a blog post on why this is the most important time to be working on coding agents.

You’d never notice it driving by but this tiny black box is powering predictive maintenance for the heavy stuff that keeps the world running. Proud investor in Omen- bringing the best AI + hardware to heavy machinery. @FounderLaberge Hell yeah brother!!! 🇺🇸🚜

hanging in lafyettte park later with @miakrishh @carolinetoch and 20+ @DormRoomFund (ers), anyone around want to come say hi, open invite.

went to the mineralx summit at stanford yesterday with @caitlinbolnick1 — fascinating to see the overlap of ai, policy, and geology. feels like the early innings of a critical tech shift and mining is finally getting its startup moment.

trying this thing where i get 3-4 people together each weekend to play padel, no stakes, just sunshine and smack talk we call it the padel series. dm if interested for the next!

Imagine having 1. Real investing power 2. Membership in the best student community in the country 3. Engaged support and mentorship 4. Successful peers to push you and incredible alumni to guide you 5. Doors opened to career opportunities If you’re a student and you want one or more of these things, apply to @DormRoomFund this week!

DRF was one of the best things I did in college and I’ve met some pretty awesome people too @nicole_ripka @j_wellemeyer @Mealynnwong 🔥 Congrats to @themollette and the rest of the @DormRoomFund team on raising Fund IV !! #drf4life
