LLMs optimize for what humans like to read, not what machines need to do. The next leap in AI won't come from larger models, but from architectures that make intelligence cheaper and more machine-native (cue @DCVC-backed @typesafeai). Explore Opportunity 1.3: dcvc.com/reports/deep-t… #DCVCDeepTech

Have had several requests to post slides from the recent quantum investor talk I gave @UCLA I've been investing in quantum for >10 years and while the data wasn't surprising it was still interesting to actually see the numbers ... ⚛️🧵👇

The microbiome is essential to human health but until recently, we couldn't do much with it. @DCVC's @jason_pontin examines the breakthroughs finally making the microbiome druggable (DCVC-backed @kanvasbio leads here).

Enjoyed my conversation with @suffiyanmalikk. Full episode here. ⚛️ Quantum is coming, and will be huge, but not for the use cases and reasons you think. 💰The best founders raised at 2X higher valuation. 🏦 Companies that raised from Tier 1 funds were 5x more likely to become a success. 💹 New forms of tradable assets will become huge, especially compute and energy derivatives We discussed these and many more. Give it a listen.

If you’re working on something contrarian* come talk to us @DCVC In a time of consensus capital we continue to think independently and don’t need you to already have a term sheet to be interested *Note: still needs to be in Applied AI or Deep Tech! @alitamaseb @jason_pontin

Good reporting from Marina Temkin (@MTemkin) at @TechCrunch. Proud to have led @typesafeai's Series Seed less than a month ago and to have participated in the $870M @a16z-led A alongside @sequoia --prouder still to see the tremendous response from software developers around the world (TypeSafe's first model, Jev, has already been adopted by 1/3 of the @FortuneMagazine 500). This is a team that gets it done 👇

Great reporting from Natasha Mascarenhas (@nmasc_) and @RebeccaTorrenc5 at Bloomberg (@business). In less than a month, from the day we led @typesafeai's Series Seed, the company's valuation has risen from ~200M to $7.5B (we were glad to participate in the @a16z-led Series A alongside @sequoia). The company now has nearly $1B to put to work. Why all the fuss? Because TypeSafe is making reliable, affordable, fast, machine-native AI, which will revolutionize software broadly. Hats off to an incredible team led by cofounders CEO Diogo Almeida (@CompleteSkeptic) Erik Gafni (@EGafni) and Sasha Sheng (@hackgoofer). Their first model, Jev, has already been adopted by 1/3 of the @FortuneMagazine 500—but they're just getting started. 🔥🔥🔥 bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Trillions of tokens a day. Almost $1b in new firepower for @typesafeai’s mission. The execution quality and pace of Diogo Almeida (@CompleteSkeptic) Erik Gafni (@EGafni) Sasha Sheng (@hackgoofer) and their teammates at TypeSafe AI is off the charts. We’re glad that @DCVC could lead the Seed and now double down in the A with our friends from @a16z (who led the A) and @sequoia. @martin_casado of a16z is a talented entrepreneur in his own right and a great partner for driven operators changing the world.

A look at what @DCVC founders delivered /this week/: 💪 🚚 🧠 Major funding for machine-native AI: @typesafeai closed an $870M Series A led by @a16z at a $7.5B valuation—with DCVC participating alongside @sequoia —less than a month after emerging from stealth with a $40M Series Seed led by DCVC at a ~$200M valuation. 1/3 of the @FortuneMagazine 500 have already adopted their first model, Jev. ⚛️ Record-setting UK quantum milestone: @universalquant raised over $100M in Series A funding co-led by DCVC—the largest-ever Series A for a UK quantum firm—to scale its modular trapped-ion architecture into error-corrected quantum computers. 🏛️ @DARPA validated quantum scale: @Atom_Computing and @IonQ_Inc advanced to the final stage (Stage C) of DARPA’s Quantum Benchmarking Initiative—with both companies unlocking agreements worth up to $300M each in potential funding to build utility-scale quantum systems. 🌾 Award-winning AI agriculture: @verdantrobotics was named to @FastCompany's list of the Next Big Things in Food and Agriculture for its SharpShooter AI tech, which cuts pesticide application by up to 99%. 🛸 In-space operations & defense: @GoToImpulse (Impulse Space) reached the finals for the @SpaceNews_Inc Icon Awards after demonstrating autonomous proximity operations between two Mira spacecraft in LEO, while @FortemTech showcased its autonomous counter-drone radar integrated directly onto new unmanned ground platforms. ⚡ Grid flexibility & geothermal momentum: @EmeraldAi_'s flexible load coalition with @Google and @nvidia made @Reuters as a blueprinted fix for data center power bottlenecks, while @fervoenergy's record-breaking Cape Station launch continued making headlines across national energy press. Onward!

Much respect for Fei-Fei and her decades of contributions, but given what @odysseyml just unleashed with #odyssey-3, @AMD should be asking for a refund... 🙃 Kidding aside, what this @DCVC-backed company just delivered is extraordinary, and more so on the relatively modest $ and team size they did it on... Congrats @olivercameron + your team!
