The future will belong to folks who can build/deploy AI faster, which is why we chose to invest in and invite them to because of the dramatic productivity gains they give all AI teams, often going from one model a month to several model deploys in a day!

A common mistake founders (esp technical ones) make is assuming: 1) Selling is something magical that only sales people can do 2) Just hire a sales person → sales problem solved! I made both these assumptions running . Came back to bite me!
Quote Tweet
The amount of $$$$ wasted on hiring full-time sales bodies before commercial validation is completed must be looked at closely for startups. Sales doesn't figure itself out. If you, Founder, haven't found market pulse there's a 99.9%, your sales leader/sales team won't.
