.@AndrewYang says AI will crush millions of jobs. @theojaffee argues jobs don’t work that way and 200 years of automation says otherwise: Andrew Yang: "2.9 million Americans work in customer service call centers. 2 million drive an Uber. 70 million Americans work at white collar jobs. I think AI is going to crush this number." Theo: "Just looking at the past 200 years or so of automation, this claim has been made over and over again and it doesn't stand because automating jobs is really hard." "Jobs are bundles of tasks. In order to automate a job, you have to do every single task the human does on some Pareto curve of better and cheaper than the human. If there's one task in a job remaining for humans to do, humans are still employable" Andrew Yang: "There are 100 people in a department doing a job and if you can reduce 60% of the tasks, what happens is you fire 60 of the hundred and the remaining 40 you say, hey guys, your jobs just changed. Then you systematically reduce that number." @jubileemedia

Crucible Capital founder @Melt_Dem says compute will be this century’s oil, and America should win the same way it built the petrodollar: financial engineering. "I am a compute maximalist. The core view we have is a view I call capital markets maximalism. America is incredible at financial engineering" "This is why the US dollar is the petrodollar. If the oil industry was the most consequential of the last century, I think the compute economy will be the most consequential of this century. How does America win? Shit ton of financial engineering. Let's do what we're really good at." "If banks are stepping back, if credit funds get more rigorous with their underwriting, we see the whole debt complex repricing from 7 to 9% into the low teens. That means we need new sources of capital to step in." @CrucibleCap

a16z’s @david__booth and @katiesquestions on what makes a Cosign different: you’re putting your own reputation behind someone else. David Booth: "LinkedIn is where you go to talk about yourself and the work you've done. Cosign is where your profile gets built out by the people who you have worked with." "A cosign is intended to be scarce and expensive. You can go on LinkedIn and connect with anyone you just met at the party. A cosign is public. You're attaching some of your reputation to them." Katie Goldstein: "This is the kind of information I would normally need to get privately. I'd have to call references." David Booth: "We wanna make that private signal explicit. If this person left their company tomorrow, I'd totally fund them. Let's let her know that." @cosign @a16z
Excited to introduce @Cosign: the curated professional network for the startup community: cosign.co Our goal is to create the following: - A comprehensive startup directory of investors, companies, and operators, including what they worked on and who they worked on it with. - Cosign graph: Who shaped your career? Who were you actually in the trenches with? Who would work with you again? Who thinks you’re someone to watch? - Durable reputation: Great endorsements happen every day on X and disappear into the feed. Cosign attaches those signals permanently to people and companies. - Discovery: Who are the best fintech angels? Which AI companies should I watch? Who are the best designers? - Intent network: Privately signal “I’d invest in them,” “I’d hire them,” “I’d work with them,” or eventually even “I’d acquire this company.” Match people when interest exists on both sides. Imagine if Wikipedia, LinkedIn, and OG AngelList had a baby. Though Cosign is a community, not a business. In order to join, you need to be cosigned. Or you can apply directly. David Booth and I started this idea 7 years ago but didn’t have the firepower to make it work. Now we do. No one has really touched LinkedIn in 20 years. Excited to take a swing. cosign.co
