Founder, CEO at Cuvva - making cars multiplayer

Joined March 2009
This is a testament to the huge amount of hard work that has been put in, over the course of a decade now, to help everyone get affordable access to a car. I cannot be more thankful for the amazing Cuvva team who have made it happen. Onward! thetimes.com/article/8841726…

My favorite thing @om wrote was actually an interview with Brunello Cucinelli in 2015. And to this day, I think it’s the single best thing you can read on running a business. Better than any book, better than any article. Read it: om.co/2015/04/27/brunello-cu…

The Royal Society for Blind Children and the National Deaf Children's Society have both come out against the Starmer social media ban. "Internet bad" is a trendy, upper-middle-class opinion for people with extracurricular budgets that ignores legions of people who rely on it.

Fable isn't the first. In 1999 the department of defense blocked exports of the PowerMac G4 for crossing the 1 gigaflop threshold. Steve Jobs turned it into an ad.

A few days ago I had Claude Fable 5 pick out a donut for me. Today it became clear: the US government knows this kind of power cannot fall into the hands of foreign nationals. God help us all.

Please please stop your LLM’s from using this phrasing structure, it’s horrendous.
It’s not just new, it’s newspeak

It has been so much crazier than just this. The tell all books in 10 years from every corner of industry will be something else
Running a company: 2020: can you survive a pandemic? 2021: still here? we’re going to give all of your competitors $100m series A rounds. 2022: wow, you made it? okay, all engineers cost $600,000/year now. 2023: nice job! okay, SVB failed and we’re going to take away your bank account. 2024: a survivor I see. but can you pivot from ai to crypto to defense tech back to ai-enabled defense tech in a 12 month period to stay relevant? 2025: unfortunately all of your competitors have raised $2b series B rounds. oh and only 500 engineers are relevant and they cost $100m/yr each. 2026: well, well, well. you’re still in business? let’s deploy the thunderclap of godlike LLMs from the heavens so all of your customers can rebuild your app in 2 hours. can you survive?

It's pretty insane how different running a company has been over the last three months. Claude code CLI is now the command interface for everything. Everything is connected and accessible via MCPs. Software is bespoke and instant. This moment feels far far more important than the world waking up to gpt3.5.

£250k for Chris Wormald to leave is unsurprising, this is the approx cost to replace an underperforming C level exec in the private sector. Prime Minister / Public sector can ignore the rules, fire at will and eat the cost because it’s not their money.

the point is they enact a bunch of employment laws that are really expensive not to follow, and then they don’t follow them themselves because they don’t care about the cost. The people paying for their mistakes are the ones following the rules they made.

✨🇨🇳This is an intelligent following robot from a Chinese enterprise. It follows users for grocery shopping in markets, avoids obstacles like roadblocks and vehicles smartly, sorts goods in warehouses to boost industrial efficiency. That's amazing!
