Early stage alternative to #ChatGPT launched, core components Open Sourced (Apache). Some license limitations to deter abuse. Well funded and already relatively capable. With no central controlling org like OpenAI, ethical challenges await #OpenChatKit techcrunch.com/2023/03/14/mee

The year is 1994, and email signatures are a hot new trend tearing through usenet and mailing lists alike. Some companies are cashing in by charging to use them. Right Pipedrive?

Startup idea: a home kit that makes a mold of your teeth. Post it to Eastern Europe. Your tooth/grind guard is posted back in 4 days. Same cost as a regular dentist fitted guard in E.g. Albania (40€) vs German price (€4-500). 10x Cheaper, plus skip the wait for D appointment 👄
When I first met Mark Zuckerberg, I shared with him the same advice I gave Jeff Bezos and Steve Jobs when we were setting up Amazon and Apple. “Build a second act.” 🛠 Instagram, AWS, iPhone. Proud to have played a small role in all three. 💪

Huge news: we are now a company! It's been a wild ride since moving to Brazil for the programme. We pivoted to a new model, taking email in an exciting new direction. Using and making #OpenSource, of course! Seed round closes next Friday. buff.ly/36sNvJu.
