Thrilled to join @NotionHQ! It’s an exciting moment to be building tools for the future for everyone. I’ve used Notion for over a decade and admired what this team has built for a long time, so this one was an easy decision. Really grateful (and very excited) to be here. Let’s go 🧱

Video of my MIT talk on LLMs: a first-principles view of how and why they work, without discussing attention/transformers. SFT/RLHF/RL reshape the distribution, but underneath it all the LLM is still next token predicting from a distribution. piped.video/sLodkyHlQhY

I’m ooo this week - so this is a personal perspective, don’t speak for the company here yada yada (ignore the badge) claude, codex, grok etc - they’ll all ship documents, collaboration, permissions. that’s actually great - for both them and…for notion for the labs, the products being closer to the harness they own / model should improve the quality and capability. some customers will do it and be better for it. good for the customer and the lab. for notion? this is what I told myself when i first heard about docs etc coming down the pike powers - product is loved, brand is strong, customers want more from it. that kind of bond is rather hard to break! freedom - context wants to be free - customers will desire agnosticism marginal advantages - every week there’s a new model, and you want to harness the intelligence no matter who’s renting it !zero sum - love the labs. they’ve changed humanity. but markets are so big. notion owns its own piece of the pie large markets - we’re at the start of the inference inference end game. it’s going to be a very long one, something something exponentials team - it’s great. water’s warm - come through i’m biased but that’s the story I tell myself
Notion is cooked. Claude quietly launched interactive docs. Tables, adding collaborators, charts, etc. Not sure why people would keep paying extra for Notion AI. Still using Notion? What's keeping you there?

We’re rebuilding Notion natively on mobile. It’s early, but here is how it feels now! What frustrates you Notion on your phone today? I want to hear and improve!

Thrilled to support this mission
For generations, we've pushed the limits of what flight can do. Yet moving goods still comes with a compromise. The sea takes weeks and flying costs too much. Somewhere along the way, the world got comfortable with waiting. Today, we announce Eureka, our first aircraft. It takes off and lands on water, and it's designed to turn "in a few weeks" into "on the evening flight." Break the surface.

chintan is maybe the perfect combo of intellectual rigor, make decisions quickly, and mostly be correct :) we worked together on mortgages, dude is a legend
Startups are THE way to prove your worth. Not corporate ladders, chasing titles, gaming perf reviews, or grinding interviews. @chintanparikh94 onboarded me at @Opendoor when I joined his team. Younger and sharper than me, and understood problems like no one else. Left during the mass exodus like me and many others when things were dysfunctional. Glad to see he's earned the right to lead engineering there
