What I've Read This Week | Issue #2
Mira Murati confused about Sora data sources, Bitcoin reaches all-time high, Reddit IPO, Musk cancels Don Lemon show and more...
Got caught up with some good stuff with Podcast. Next week, founder of OpenVC.App will be on my podcast so stay tuned and follow me on YouTube and Spotify to get the alert.
Here is what I’ve read this week starting with…
Open AI Edition:
In Cringe Video, OpenAI CTO Says She Doesn’t Know Where Sora’s Training Data Came From
Elon Musk says he's going to open source Grok, his ChatGPT rival
ChatGPT Creator OpenAI Under Fire Following an Interview About Sora
Everything Else Edition:
I believe this was expected. With the ETFs and Bitcoin halving around the corner in April, I won’t be surprise if this hits $500K (not speculation, just an observation. However, crypto-pandits believe it is going to reach $100k+)
Enterprise SaaS investment makes a comeback — but not where you’d expect
Reddit gets ready for IPO, setting a top valuation of $6.4 billion
TikTok creators say House ban threatens lives and livelihoods
While I have specific concerns about this issue, I'd prefer to keep them private for now. However, I come from a country where banning was the only solution, and it proved ineffective. I believe a more constructive approach is necessary. We need greater transparency from not just TikTok, but also Meta, Snap, and other social media platforms.
I understand the concerns surrounding TikTok and its connection to Bytedance. However, there are better solutions that benefit society and governing bodies alike. Banning simply isn't the answer.
