Did Kylie and I attend the Midjourney Scanner event? Yes, we did. Did Kylie compare notes on her skincare routine with Bryan Johnson at the event? Also, yes.

David Holz's Living The Dream Era Begins

|
By Ashlee Vance
| Core Memory
One of the tricks Silicon Valley pulls on people is making it seem cool to raise tons of money. The sums can be so vast, especially in this moment of AI frenzy, that it looks awesome to pry billions of dollars away from investors in the hopes that you might make billions of dollars for yourself. The better, more awesome approach, of course, is to make your billions without taking any money from investors and without giving up any control of your company.

By Kylie Robison, Ashlee Vance
| Core Memory
The theme for this week’s episode is tick, tick, boom. America is running out of time to catch up with China on manufacturing, and we’re physically incapable of spending an hour together without bringing it up. Release the glorious machines please!! We also go behind the scenes on Kylie’s reporting on motors and actuators — the unglamorous parts that sit in every joint of a humanoid robot, account for roughly 60% of what that robot costs to build, and come almost entirely from China.
