Is your team disagreeing on details like implementation or scoping decisions? Maybe the disagreement really stems from: * Lack of a shared strategy * Lack of shared understanding of that strategy * Misaligned goals * Different time horizons * Lack of a shared decision-making framework My first instinct is often to concentrate on explaining all of my reasoning in detail, but I'm trying to be better about zooming out and stating my assumptions and values more clearly.

Love this - AI is the Oppenheimer moment for marketing. It fundamentally collapses the time and cost of production. A $2.5 million campaign that used to take four months can now be delivered for $500,000 in four weeks. Legacy firms that charge based on hours with the 'time-driven' model are existentially threatened by this.

Leaders from the Massachusetts AI Coalition are working with their teams to drive impact across the Commonwealth. Here's a quick update for those interested in following along. - Beacon Taskforce: A Founder Starter Pack is being assembled from the feedback of 30+ founders. Consistent themes are present (fast/flexible capital, free work space, GPU credits, connections to founders/operators), making consistent solutions testable. Excited for the first Founder Starter Pack to go live in early H1. - Tavern Taskforce: Tomorrow's event is ON. Excited for Luke Winston-Almanzar, Co-Founder & CEO of Reservoir, Ryan Jacobs, Co-Founder & CEO of Agency Robotics, and Shilpi Gupta, Founder & CEO of her company will be speaking on the "Industrial AI Builders Panel." - Banners Taskforce: Heads down. Cranking away. Working on a launch of our first big initiative on April 1st. Remember folks: The weather in New England is a feature, not a bug. 😉

I was at Config San Francisco last week and got to witness firsthand how Figma and its passionate community have evolved. Check out this post on what I saw and what it signals—AI starting to find its place in real workflows, and designers increasingly playing a role as system architects while the gap between design and development continues to narrow.

Excited to share what Manny E. Reimi, Paul Reed and I have been working on at Escape Velocity Labs! We're introducing Depura, — a no-code, evaluation-driven platform that empowers anyone, regardless of technical background, to directly shape and improve their own #AI models. No #MLOps stack. No specialist skills. Just real expertise driving real model behavior. To me, this is what “open” AI should mean: people with judgment, experience, and domain knowledge finally being able to teach models how their world actually works. More coming soon — but for now, please do check out the launch and our Design Partner Program! Follow us for more updates as we continue on this journey 💪

Is there an AI bubble? This was the subject of the latest Oaktree Capital memo and a popular topic during the holiday break. While many people focus on gut feelings or connections to the late 1990s, Howard Marks takes a historical approach and effectively frames this time in the context of other historical moments, financial markets, and as an investor. His postscript also provides his perspective on the societal impact of AI taking on more jobs. This is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in understanding the pros and cons of an AI bubble. https://lnkd.in/gGpqdVZ8
