这是第一个真正的ChatGPT竞争对手。
It's the first real ChatGPT competitor.
Anthropic之前一直不太在意Clawd,直到最近才重视起来。
Anthropic never really cared about Clawd until recently.
Muse有很多身份。
Muse is many things.
这是我用过的最好的软件之一。
It's one of the best pieces of software I've I've ever I've used ever.
但它也是一匹黑马,用来对抗ChatGPT,因为它的语言模型相当不错。
But it's also a Trojan horse to fight ChatGPT because the LM's pretty good.
他们用我们所有的数据训练,包括每个YouTube视频、每份开源代码、每份闭源代码。
They've trained on all of our data, every YouTube, every piece of open source, every piece of closed source.
当然,他们肯定会用你的数据来训练。
Of course, they're gonna train on your data.
别开玩笑了。
Give me a break.
人工智能毁灭全人类的概率是零。
There is a zero probability AI will destroy all of humanity.
我喜欢那些默默积累的公司。
I love the quiet compounders.
现在市场上已经没有它们的位置了。
There's just no market for them anymore.
编程是最大的金矿。
Coding is the mother lode.
它是一切。
It's it's everything.
这里是20VC,我是Harry Stebbings,这是我们所有人都翘首以盼的节目。
This is 20 VC with me, Harry Stebbings, and it's the show that we all freaking wait for.
说实话吧。
Let's be honest.
Jason Lemkin,Rory O Driscoll,科技界最大的新闻。
Jason Lemkin, Rory O Driscoll, the biggest news in tech.
这周有什么大事发生?
What is going down this week?
Anthropic,宝贝。
Anthropic, baby.
他们推迟了IPO。
They pushed the IPO.
我们得等更久了。
We have to wait longer.
可能要到十一月。
Maybe it's November.
然后还有Meta。
Then we have Meta.
Alex Wang表现得很出色。
Alex Wang is delivering the goods.
Muse在App Store上稳居第一。
Muse holds number one spot on the App Store.
他们势头很猛,直接压过了Instinct。
They are crushing and handing it to Instinct.
看来AI助手之争真的开始了。
Maybe the AI assistant race really is on.
然后还有ChatGPT的发明者ShippingJev,如今最热门的工具之一,成了Vercel有史以来发布最快的一次。
Then we have ChatGPT inventor ShippingJev, one of the most popular tools today becoming Vercel's fastest ever launch.
接着是Lemkin和IC的深度对话,就是Jason Lemkin本人。
Then we have Lemkin's deep dive with the IC that is Jason Lemkin.
我们要不要以110亿美元投Legora?
Do we put money into Legora at 11,000,000,000?
我们要不要以300亿美元投Crusoe?
Do we do Crusoe at a $30,000,000,000 price?
然后要不要以50亿美元投Factory?
And then do we do Factory at a $5,000,000,000 price?
最后是Airwallex对阵Keith Rabois。
Finally, Airwallex versus Keith Rabois.
这期节目继续,还有为什么悉尼·斯威尼应该站出来当Airwallex的代言人。
This show goes on and why Sydney Sweeney should come out as the ambassador for Airwallex.
但在我们深入今天的节目之前,你有了想法,但大多数AI工具会让你碰壁。
But before we dive into the show today, you have the idea, but with most AI tools, you hit a wall.
设置、配置,以及你想象的和实际交付之间的差距。
The setup, the config, the gap between what you pictured and what you actually ship.
而Base forty four就是让那堵墙消失的地方。
Well, Base forty four is where that wall disappears.
你描述一下?
You describe it?
Base forty four就帮你建出来。
Base forty four builds it.
应用、网站、AI代理,真正能用的产品,只用大白话,几分钟就能搞定。
Apps, websites, AI agents, real working products, built in minutes using nothing but plain language.
而且所有功能都内置好了。
And it's all batteries included.
后端、数据库、认证、托管这些重活都帮你搞定了,你只需要专注于自己的思路。
The back end, the database, the authentication, the hosting, the heavy lifting is handled, so you just really stay in the flow.
这不仅能帮你省去那些琐碎的工作,还能让你获得优势,突破你原本以为一个人做不到的极限。
This doesn't just take the busy work off your plate, but it gives you an advantage and pushes you past what you thought you could build alone.
所以在这个市场里,快是基本要求。
So in this market, fast is the baseline.
要想赢,你只需要做第一个。
To win, you just have to be first.
Base forty four 就是那个优势,让你跳过排错,直接进入突破阶段。
Base forty four is that edge, the move that skips the troubleshooting and gets you straight to the breakthrough.
去 base44.com 打造你的下一个作品吧。
Build your next thing at base44.com.
就是 base44.com。
That's base44.com.
Base forty four 把想法变成应用,而 Plort 把对话变成洞察。
While Base forty four turns ideas into apps, Plort turns conversations into insights.
创始人和运营者每周都要花大量时间在各种会议、投资人电话、头脑风暴、客户对话之间来回切换,之后还得费劲把所有的信息拼凑起来。
Founders and operators spend way too much time every week jumping between meetings, investor calls, brainstorms, customer conversations, and then trying to piece everything back together afterwards.
所以这就是为什么我一直在用Plaud。
And that's why I've been using Plaud.
Plaud能一键捕捉对话、语音笔记、会议和随机想法,然后自动生成清晰的摘要、行动项、思维导图和可搜索的笔记,方便你之后随时查阅。
Plaud instantly captures conversations, voice notes, meetings, random ideas with one press, and then turns them into clean summaries, action items, mind maps, and searchable notes that you can actually come back to later.
说实话,它更像是一个AI驱动的记忆系统,而不是一个简单的录音机。
Honestly, it feels less like a recorder and more like an AI powered, like, brain memory system.
最神奇的是它的硬件本身。
And the crazy part is the hardware itself.
Plaud Note Pro真的只有信用卡那么大、那么薄,所以当重要的事情发生时,它总是随身带着。
The Plaud Note Pro is literally as small and thin as a credit card, so it's just always with you when something important comes up.
已经有超过200万创始人、运营者、投资人、顾问和专业人士在使用Plaud来保持条理。
There are already more than 2,000,000 founders, operators, investors, consultants, and professionals using Plaud to stay organized.
所以,想得更清楚,别再丢失好点子和重要细节了。
So think more clearly and stop losing great ideas and important details.

Plaud 负责记录对话,而 Finn 则负责延续对话。
While Plaud captures the conversation, Finn helps continue it.
随着 AI 代理在客户体验中越来越普遍,团队往往需要同时处理多个孤立的工具来完成每一项工作。
As AI agents become more common in customer experience, teams often end up juggling multiple silo tools for every job.
而 Finn 就是为了改变这一现状而生的。
Well, Finn was built to change that.
它是一个统一的代理,能够覆盖整个客户体验流程,从服务到销售,再到客户成功,甚至更多。
It's a single unified agent that works across your entire customer experience from service to sales to success and beyond.
Finn 是让数千家客户实现完美客户体验的代理。
Finn is the agent making perfect customer experiences possible for thousands of customers.

您已到达目的地。
You have now arrived at your destination.
各位,又过了一周,我想先聊聊这个新闻:Anthropic把两万亿美元的IPO从十月推迟到了十一月。
Boys, another week, and I wanted to start with the news that Anthropic pushes its $2,000,000,000,000 IPO from October to November.
有些人觉得这可能是市场出现裂痕的第一个迹象。
Some people are suggesting that it's the first signs of a cracking in the market.
这跟我们上周讨论的前沿节奏是一致的。
It's following the pacing the frontier that we discussed last week.
你有多同意这个看法?
To what extent do you agree with that?
还是说,你觉得他们其实只是想要一份漂亮的招股说明书,需要更多时间让那些数据更好看?
Or to what extent do you think it really is just them wanting to have a great q prospectus and needing more time for those numbers to show through?
我觉得答案就是后者。
I think that's the answer.
至于市场裂痕那套说法,咱们先放一边。
I think the whole crack in the market thing, let's leave that to one side for now.
我们晚点再聊这个。
We'll talk about it later.
关于节奏那部分,我也同意,显然连说这话的人自己都不太信。
Ditto the pacing stuff, which clearly has also been shown to be not really believed even by the people who said it.
其实归根结底就是你刚才说的那个意思。
It really boils down to what you said.
他们第二季度表现非常出色。
They had an amazing q two.
他们终于超过了OpenAI。
They finally became bigger than OpenAI.
还记得我们之前聊过这个。
And remember, we talked about this.
然后OpenAI在七月份反应很激烈,开始发推说我们第三季度数据多好多好,拼命反击。
OpenAI then responded furiously in July, started tweeting all that my Q3 numbers are amazing story and really pushing back.
而且有些数据确实支持这个说法。
And some of the data supports that.
所以我猜银行家会说,嘿,如果你想要一个特别干净的故事,最好把第三季度这个噪音也包含进去,而不是十月份就上市,那时候你还没法公布十月份的数据。
So my guess is the banker said, hey, if you want a really clean story, it would be great to incorporate a quarter that reflects this noise instead of going out in October where you won't be able to share your October numbers.
就是那种奇怪的情况,十一月上市,数据干净,你公布十月份的数字,放进去,然后就走。
It's kind of that weird thing, go out in November where it's clean, you print your October numbers, you drop them in and you go.
所以从时间安排的角度来看,一切都说得通。
So from a programming kind of timing perspective, it just all makes sense.
这是一笔更干净的交易。
It's a cleaner deal.
至于这是不是明智的决定,我们待会儿再讨论,但就时间点来说,在拿到数据之后、但还不能公布数据之前上市,总是很奇怪。
Whether it turns out to be a wise decision or not, we can come back to in a second, but just from a it's always weird to go out after you have your numbers, but before you can share the numbers.
也就是在季度结束之后,但在你最终确定并审计完数据之前,尤其是对于看起来相当关键的季度。
So after the end of your quarter, but before you've kind of finalized and audited them, especially for what looks like quite a pivotal quarter.
所以这完全合理。
So it totally made sense.
如果我是银行家,我会想,我们十月份做这件事,会有很多需要解释的地方。
If I'm a banker, I'm thinking, we do this in October, it's going to be a lot of explaining.
如果我们十一月做,数据自己会说话。
If we do this in November, the numbers will talk.
话虽这么说,但我觉得听起来还行。
Having said that, that sounds alright to me.
但有人跟我说,也许有一点点担心,就是这次可能是我们这辈子最大的IPO,结果超额认购30倍、20倍,或者他们想要多少倍就多少倍。
But it's said to me, maybe there's just a hint of worry that getting 30x or 20x oversubscribed or whoever they want it, you know, at the most massive IPO of our lifetimes.
也许在前期沟通中会有一点点压力。
Maybe there's just a hint of stress on the pre on the pre conversations.
我同意。
I agree.
所以这就是为什么我之前说,这到底是不是个好决定。
And that's why I made a comment earlier about is it a good decision or not?
比如说,如果十一月世界乱成一团,你回头看就会想,哎呀。
Like, if the world goes to hell in a handbasket in November, you'll look back and go, damn.
我们当时有机会的时候应该就上了。
We should have gone when we had the chance.
因为你是那个说“我们就这么干”的CFO。
Because you are a CFO who said, we're just doing it.
我不在乎你的故事乱不乱。
I don't care about your messy story.
我们要讲一个好故事。
We're gonna tell a good story.
如果因为故事乱,价格从两块变成一块五,我也不在乎。
If the price ends up between 1.5 instead of two because it's a messy story, I don't care.
我愿意接受这个结果。
I'm willing to live with that.
如果你觉得这是势在必行的事,你就会采取这种态度。
And that's the approach you take if you felt it was hell or high water.
我必须拿到这笔钱。
I gotta get this money.
很明显,他们没有采取这种态度,说明他们觉得这不是势在必行的事。
Clearly, the fact that they didn't take that approach means they decided it's not hell or high water.
他们很有信心。
They're confident.
他们愿意再承担一个月的时机风险,很可能就是为了估值能大幅提升,这就是当你觉得自己时间充裕、处于有利地位时会做的事。
They're willing to take another month of timing risk, probably for some significant valuation pop, which is what you do when you think you have lots of time and you're in a good commanding position.
我是说,我当时在那个董事会里,90%确定这是个好决定,而且第四季度讲一个干净利落的故事,总比十月份讲一个乱七八糟的故事要好。
I mean, I was on that board, it's 90% certain that this is a good decision, and a clean story in Q four is better than a messy story in October.
但总有那10%的可能性,世界会发疯,到时候你回头看,只能感叹,哎呀。
And there's always that 10% chance the world goes crazy, and you look back and you go, damn.
早知道就拿那一千亿了。
Should've taken the 100,000,000,000.
前几天我和一个朋友散步,他说,哈里,一个非常成功的亿万富翁投资者。
I was walking with a friend of mine the other day, and he said, Harry and a very successful multibillionaire investor.
他说,哈里,这些前沿模型提供商到底怎么上市啊,没人愿意给他们提供责任保险?
He said, Harry, how the do these frontier model providers go public when no one is willing to provide liability insurance?
你有一大堆流氓代理,想干什么就干什么。
You have swarms of rogue agents doing whatever you want.
他们到底是怎么上市的?
How how on earth do they go public?
谁来负责?
Who's liable?
这话说得太扯了。
Bullshit comment.
我来告诉你为什么。
And I'll tell you why.
一旦你公开说你的东西有10%的风险可能毁掉世界,那产品责任和那些噪音根本不算什么。
Once you've said publicly that there's a 10% risk that your thing can blow up the world, sweating product liabilities and the noise.
一个市值两万亿美元的公司完全可以自保。
There's a $2,000,000,000,000 market cap company can self insure.
他们不需要慕尼黑再保险这种市值两千亿的公司来给两万亿市值的公司做再保险。
They don't need reinsurance for Munich Re with a market cap of 200,000,000,000 to reinsure their $2,000,000,000,000 market cap.
你明白吗?
You know?
我觉得要完成S-1申报,根本不需要产品责任保险。
I don't think you need product liability insurance to get an S-one done.
现在,换个话题说。
Now, separate comment.
没人愿意给他们承保,这件事本身就说明产品有危险,但这个信息早就被市场消化了。
The fact that no one will insure them is a data point about the dangers of the product, but that's long since been internalized.
公平地说,Anthropic的管理层,任何买这只股票的人,如果不知道高层认为这是自原子弹以来最危险的东西,那他们显然没看过管理层的推文。
To be very fair to the Anthropic management, anyone who buys that stock and doesn't know that senior management think it's the most dangerous thing since the atomic bomb has rightly around me, by the way, hasn't been reading their tweets.
在披露的风险清单里,产品危险这个话题已经讨论得很充分了,都讨论了十年了。我其实很期待看到S-1文件里的风险部分。
It's a pretty well in the list of risks disclosed, I'm really looking forward to reading the S1 risks, by the way, but in the list of risks disclosed, product dangers have been pretty thoroughly discussed for a decade here.
所以我完全不认同那个说法。
So I don't buy that at all.
你可以担心估值、担心市场接受度,理由有一百个,但产品责任保险根本不是问题所在。
There's a 100 reasons why you can worry about valuation and traction and all that, but product liability insurance isn't the noise.
对,他们就是会有一个庞大的诉讼法律团队。
Yeah, they're just gonna have a big litigation legal team.
他们就是会没完没了地打这些官司。
It's just they're gonna fight this stuff for infinity.
就像科技公司的领导们一直以来都得靠大团队来对付那些专利流氓一样。
Just like tech leaders have always had to fight IP trolls with large teams.
他们也会去应对那些责任诉讼。
They're gonna fight liability suits.
他们会养两百号内部员工,再请上顶级律所,跟人打持久战,说自己不负责,还推动立法,但IPO是不会停的。
They're gonna have 200 folks in house and all the top law firms fighting this, dragging it out, saying they're not responsible, trying to get legislation passed, but you don't stop the IPO.
我记不清有哪个IPO像这次一样,风险暴露得这么明显,就像罗里和哈里说的那样。
I can't remember an IPO that this was as so explicitly dangerous to Rory's point and Harry's point.
这确实是前所未有,但既然开始了,那就干吧。
I mean, it is novel, but it's game on, man.
我同意。
I mean Agree.
证券法最重要的部分,不是说你卖的股票没有风险。
The most important part of securities laws security laws is not that you have sell stock that has no risk.
而是你卖股票的时候,要把风险披露清楚。
It's that you sell stock where you disclose the risk.
而且他们在S-1文件里肯定也写了,至少有一半的疯狂员工觉得这东西会炸毁世界。
And provided somewhere in the s one, they say, at least half of our crazy employee base thinks this thing is gonna blow up the world.
我说句公道话,达里奥说,虽然我不这么认为,但我的团队是这么想的。
I don't, for what it's worth, says Dario, but my people think that.
就是让你们知道,在S-1文件里他们可是这么写的。
Just letting you people know they're out there in s one land.
只要他披露了这一点,他就免责了。
Provided he discloses that, he's covered.
而且很明显,他并不在保障范围内。
And obviously state the obvious, he's not covered.
如果真把人类给毁了,他也得跟着完蛋。
If in fact it does end humanity, he'll die too.
不过咱们先不管这个。
But let's just ignore that for now.
还有还有
And and
顺便说一下,我要特别表扬一下Jensen那个大胆的预测。
it's by the way, I wanna call out Jensen for his big ass call.
我太喜欢了。
I love it.
他说AI毁灭人类的概率是零。
For the p z his probability of doom is zero.
终于,一个不废话的投资人给出了明确表态。
Finally, unequivocal statement from a no bullshit investor.
有个科技领袖说,
There is a zero tech leader.
AI毁灭全人类的概率是零。
There is a zero probability AI will destroy all of humanity.
我太喜欢了。
I love it.
那是因为他的语言模型还没跟上呢。
That's because his LMs haven't caught up yet.
他的开源语言模型还没跟上。
His open source LMs haven't caught up yet.
这就是原因。
That's why.
所以他才能说到2030年,因为他知道自己需要那么久才能赶上。
That's why he can say not until 2030 because he knows he needs until then to catch up.
在我们聊Meta和Muse之前,OpenAI到2030年要烧掉2780亿美元,到2028年现金就会耗尽。
Before we move to Meta and Muse, their OpenAI to burn $278,000,000,000 by 2030 out of cash by 2028.
这只是一些噪音吗?
Is this just more noise?
当然,这也是意料之中的。
And, of course, that's to be expected.
有传言说还会有一轮融资,估值达到1.5万亿美元。
There's rumors of another round at a 1,500,000,000,000.
我打赌会更多。
I bet it's more.
它的烧钱速度从来没有低于过计划。
It doesn't have a history of the burn coming in less than plan.
他们可能需要400亿。
They may need 400.
我们都有过这样的投资组合公司。
We've all had a portfolio company are like that.
营收很好。
Top line, great.
团队也很喜欢。
Love the team.
但不管他们怎么说,烧钱总是比模型预测高出30%到50%。
But burn, no matter what they say, always comes in 30 to 50% higher than the model.
不管我们派谁去当CFO都没用。
Doesn't matter who we put in at CFO.
杰森说得大体没错。
Jason is broadly right.
我的意思是,从大方向看这个预测。
Mean, big picture on the forecast.
其实有三个关键数字值得关注。
There's actually three numbers that matter not to.
他们预测ARR从今年年底的3500万增长到三四年后的3.5亿,我记得是这样。
They're forecasting growing from 35 in ARR end of this year to three fifty, I think, in three or four years.
所以是10倍增长,顺便提一下,去年Anthropic一年就增长了10倍。
So 10x growth, worth pointing out, by the way, that last year Anthropic grew 10x in one year.
而这是三四年10倍的预测。
This is a 10x forecast over three or four years.
所以其实算是比较保守的。
So almost modest.
第二点是烧钱的情况。
Second thing is the burn.
他们预测净烧钱额是2780亿美元。
You're they're forecasting a burn, growth, a net burn of $278,000,000,000.
这就像钱从他们门口流出去一样。
And that's like money out their door.
他们手头有1220亿现金,所以有时间去筹集额外的资金。
They have a 122,000,000,000 of cash on hand, so they got time to raise the extra capital.
另一个惊人的数字是,要实现这一切所需的资本支出,大约7000亿,其中并非全部都在他们的资产负债表上,很多是在别人的资产负债表上。
The amazing number is the other one, which is the CapEx required to do all this, not all of which is on their balance sheet, a lot of it's on other people's balance sheet, is around 700,000,000,000.
所以这提醒我们,这不像软件行业,这是一个极其资本密集型的业务。
So it's just a reminder that this is, unlike software, this is an extraordinary capital intensive business.
而且,回到你刚才说的,哈里,如果所有这些烧钱,全部7000亿,都必须出现在资产负债表上,那情况会更糟。
And to kind of bring it back to what you said, Harry, if all that burn, all 700,000,000,000 of it had to appear on the balance sheet, it would be even worse than that.
他们之所以能只烧2780亿,唯一的原因是像甲骨文和英伟达这样的公司,以及那些提供支持和兜底保险的公司,能够说,我们来承担资本支出,然后租给你。
And the only reason they're able to do it only burning $278,000,000,000 is because other companies like Oracle and like Nvidia, of Rev Support and Backstop Insurance, are able to say, we'll do the CapEx and lease it to you.
所以这是一家极其资本密集型的公司。
So this is an extraordinarily capital intensive company.
它要直接或间接消耗7000亿的资本支出,才能达到3500亿的收入。
It is going to consume, directly or indirectly, 700,000,000,000 worth of CapEx to get there, to get to $350,000,000,000 in revenue.
智能可不便宜。
Intelligence is not cheap.
我觉得这是我们讲OpenAI和Anthropic最有效率的一次。
I think that was the most efficient covering we've done of OpenAI and Anthropic.
我们可以继续了。
We can move on.
那我们进入本周故事环节,
So we're gonna move to a story of the week,
这是节目的一个新板块,
which is gonna be a new feature of
对,新板块。
the show.
Jason的IC一直是个超受欢迎的环节,现在我们加一个本周故事,对我来说就是Meta的Muse连续多天霸榜第一,股价大涨。
Jason's IC has been a massive popular segment, and we're gonna add a story of the week, which for me is Meta's Muse taking number one spot for days, stock ripping.
Alex、Y和团队这次发布真是大获成功。
Alex, Y, and team absolutely crushing with this launch.
你怎么看?
Thoughts?
这对OpenAI不利。
Bad for OpenAI.
说得有道理。
That's a good point.
这是第一个真正的ChatGPT竞争对手。
The it's the first real ChatGPT competitor.
Anthropic以前一直不太重视Claude,直到最近才改变。
Anthropic never really cared about Claude until recently.
Muse有很多用途。
Muse is many things.
它是我用过的最好的软件之一,但它也是一匹黑马,用来对抗ChatGPT,因为它的语言模型相当不错。
It's one of the best pieces of software I've I've ever I've used ever, but it's also a Trojan horse to fight ChatGPT because the LM's pretty good.
每次你在使用智能体的时候,其实也是在提问。
Every time you're doing an agent, you're also asking questions.
你不仅仅是在让它帮你找电影。
You're not just telling it to get your movies.
你是在问,嘿,Plane是什么?
You're saying, Hey, what is Plane?
那部最新的超级英雄电影怎么样?
How is that latest superhero movie?
最新的20 VC怎么样?
How was the latest 20 VC?
它有自己的看法。
It has opinions.
它是个相当不错的普通消费级大语言模型,对吧?
It's a darn good, normal consumer grade LLM, right?
我觉得没人会在Muse上写湿实验室生物技术软件,但在普通用户层面,如果它是免费的,而且有真正自主的代理,这是ChatGPT没有的,它还能回答你所有其他问题。
I don't think anyone's writing a wet lab biotech software on Muse, but at a lay level, if it's free, it has agents that are truly autonomous, which ChatGPT doesn't, and it can do all the other questions you have.
而且它犯错的时候还会给你写可爱的信。
And it writes you cute letters when it makes mistakes.
如果它是免费的,普通人为什么要付费呢?
If it's free, why would an ordinary person pay?
而且它的令牌数量比ChatGPT提供的要多得多。
And the tokens are vastly more than you get from ChatGPT.
我觉得,除了其他所有功能之外,它就像ChatGPT的特洛伊木马,因为它能做ChatGPT能做的所有事情,而且还有自主代理。
I I just think in addition to everything else, it's a ChatGPT Trojan horse because it it does everything it can do, and it has autonomous agents.
它不仅仅局限于代理功能。
It doesn't have to just be agents.
它什么都能做。
It's doing all of it.
所以这真的很酷。
So it's it's pretty cool.
完全同意。
Could not agree more.
我觉得它非常棒。
I think it's excellent.
有意思的是,我记得两周前我们还在说他们得赶紧发布这个。
It's funny, I think, as I said two weeks ago, we were saying they got to ship this.
结果就在我们聊完之后,他们真的就发布了。
Literally between talk, our conversation and release, they shipped it.
你知道,我们之前对Meta和Facebook在AI上的投资一直持怀疑态度,还有点苛刻,特别是那个企业模型。
You know, we've been skeptical and a little harsh about some of the, you know, MetaFacebook investments in AI with and it'll determine enterprise model.
但这次完全相反。
This is the exact opposite.
这次做得非常到位,正好利用了他们的分发优势。
This is spot on, plays into their distribution leverage.
这直观上就是你会想要的东西。
It's intuitively kind of something that you would take.
我的意思是,如果你已经信任Facebook处理其他所有事情,那这就是个更长的话题了。
I mean, to the extent that you do trust Facebook with everything else already, longer discussion.
到了这个地步,如果你已经深度使用Instagram或Facebook,那你早就被套牢了。
At this point, if you're if you're deep in Insta or Facebook, you're in already.
你不在乎。
You don't care.
而且这是个好产品。
And it's a good product.
杰森,你说得完全对。
Jason, you're exactly right.
界面做得很好。
It's a good UI.
用起来很顺畅。
It works.
它能给我推荐,而且他们就是有那个分发渠道。
It gives me recommendations, and they just have the distribution.
所以我也同意。
So I I agree.
我觉得那是个让人惊叹的时刻。
I thought it was a wow moment.
我觉得那真是个实实在在的胜利。
I thought it was a real win.
你知道,我不太确定它的经济性,也不确定它值不值100块,但值得指出的是,这对Meta来说意味着什么。
You know, I'm not sure about the economics and if it's worth a 100 but it's worth pointing this is it's worth pointing out what it meant for Meta.
他们的股价涨了7%到8%。
They're up seven or 8%.
这周他们的市值增加了1000亿美元,就是因为这个产品。
They've made a $100,000,000,000 in market cap this week because of that product.
这恰恰说明,我是说,这是我需要提醒自己的事情。
And that just shows when you I mean, it's something I have to remind myself.
当你面对这些巨大的终端市场时,你能看到什么样的可能性。
The art the what's possible when you're dealing with these huge end markets.
你能看到在这个领域布局的价值。
You can see the the value of a play in that space.
这就是为什么OpenAI可能会看到这一点,并把它带回风投领域。
It's like and that's the argument why OpenAI might look at that and bring it back to venture.
他们赚了一千亿美元。
They made a 100,000,000,000.
我们买Instinct吗?
We buy Instinct?
我们现在是不是也得在这个领域做点什么?
Do we have to do something in this space like now?
而且这个月涨了34%。
And it's up 34% this month.
有人说涨得更多,因为测试版用户在买。
Some people say it's up more because people in the beta test were buying.
这挺有意思的。
That's interesting.
我看到了,是的,测试用户会买,我特别喜欢这一点。
I saw that, yes, that the beta testers will buy, which I just love.
因为确实,很长一段时间我都觉得,这是个好业务,但在企业AI这个无底洞里花了很多钱。
Because yeah, for the longest time I was like, it's a great business that's spending a lot of money in a bottomless pit of enterprise AI.
现在它成了一家可能在AI领域有X表现的好公司。
Now it's a great business that could have an X act in AI.
这是个很大的变化。
That's a big change.
不,这值得重新评级,而且得给他们大大的赞赏。
No, that's worth the rerating and give them huge credit.
所以我觉得这周对Meta来说是个重要的时刻,把显而易见的事情说清楚。
So I think it a big week for Meta to state the obvious.
问题是,我说它适合你的原因是,它给我建了一整套CRM系统。
The thing is, the reason I say it's for you, it built me an entire CRM.
这不仅仅是预订功能。
This isn't just reservations.
而且它做得非常好。
And it's very good.
不过现在才用了两周,功能还很有限。
Now it's very limited two weeks in.
它什么都能做。
It does everything.
它为我为每个SaaS回复建了一个完整的CRM。
It built me an entire CRM for every SaaS response.
它实时追踪关于它们的每封邮件、每个项目,并自动更新。
It tracks every email about them, every item in real time, it updates it.
所以它有点像一个人的CRM。
And so it is sort of a CRM of one.
现在它有限制,因为它不能真正协作。
Now it's limited because it can't really collaborate.
你不能用它替代Salesforce,但你可以想象一下。
You couldn't use it for a Salesforce, but it's imagine yourself.
它是我见过的第一批真正能用的可分解软件之一。
It is some of the first compostable software that I've ever, compostable, that I've ever actually seen work.
这从节目开播以来就一直是个传说,对吧?
This has been a myth since this show started, right?
我当时真的说,我需要一个自己的CRM。
Now I really said, I need a CRM for myself.
我需要你用AI实时追踪150个赞助商,每天更新。
I need you to track 150 sponsors daily in real time using AI.
然后它就直接给我建好了。
And it just built it for what it is.
效果非常好。
It's very good.
而且一分钱都不用花。
And it costs zero.
你需要所有的组件。
You need all the pieces.
你需要数据库。
You need database.
你需要ALM。
You need ALM.
你需要智能。
You need intelligence.
你需要访问电子邮件的权限。
You need access to email.
你需要所有这些才能让它运转起来。
You need all of this for that to work.
你显然不是典型用户,我觉得他们的商业模式不是建立在每个人都自己建CRM上的,否则计算资源会被消耗殆尽。
You're obviously not the typical user, and I don't think their economics are structured on everyone building their own CRM, or it's going to eat compute.
但是,是的,通过那个界面,后端有一个复杂的语言模型,你有自己的小沙盒。
But yes, can through that interface, you a sophisticated LLM at the back end, you have your own little sandbox.
他们提供的独立计算和沙盒资源比Instinct多得多。
They have a lot more standalone compute and sandbox for you than I think Instinct does.
所以,对,这说得通。
So, yeah, that makes sense.
好的。
Okay.
对于那些不了解或没用过它的人来说,很多人用它从不同的供应商那里买东西。
For for those that don't know or haven't used it, a lot of people use it to buy things from different providers.
作为回应,亚马逊已经屏蔽了它。
Amazon has, in response, blocked it.
Shopify则决定与它合作。
Shopify has decided to partner with it.
我们怎么看待亚马逊和Shopify这两个不同的决定,最终谁的做法更正确呢?
How do we think about those two decisions from Amazon and Shopify, and who do we ultimately think is right?
我觉得对他们来说,两个决定可能都是对的。
I think both could be right for them.
从亚马逊的角度看,因为他们在其他类型的代理式商务中发现了两件事,当你使用这种代理式商务时。
For Amazon's perspective because it's what they've discovered in other kind of agentic type commas is two things happen when you use this agentic commerce.
第一,你从广告业务中得不到任何收入,而亚马逊的广告业务现在比他们的电商利润还要大。
One, you don't get any revenue from your ad business, and Amazon's ad business is now larger than their e commerce profit.
所以换句话说,这整个利润流,对于电商来说,完全来自他们的AWS业务。
So in other words, it is the entirety of the profit stream for e commerce as a thing from their AWS business.
还有第二件事,我之前不知道的是,沃尔玛最近做了一些调整,购物篮的规模变小了,因为你没有机会去逛。
And then the second thing, I didn't know is Walmart did something recently where the basket size gets reduced, because you don't get the chance to shop.
你知道,当你直接上亚马逊的时候,他们会说,你知道,其他人也买了,然后你就会想,对,我也需要下单。
You know, when you go on Amazon directly, they're like, you know, people also bought, then you have, yeah, I need to order that.
但如果我用这个,我就直接下单了。
Whereas if I do this, I just order the thing.
所以从亚马逊的角度来看,因为他们是大玩家,他们会想,如果我让这些人这么做,那我就没有广告收入了。
So from Amazon's perspective, because they're such a big player, they're like, if I let these people do it, then I don't get my ad revenue.
我的购物篮也会变小。
I get a smaller basket.
然后接下来这句话很关键。
And then this is the next sentence is key.
如果我封锁他们,他们可能还是会来找我,因为我是亚马逊。
And if I block them, they'll probably come to me anyway because I'm Amazon.
所以我有筹码,这就像是科技巨头之间的碰撞。
So I have leverage, and this is kind of tech behemoths bumping into each other.
亚马逊现在在说,去你的,Muse,Meta。
Amazon is now saying, screw you, Muse, Meta.
在我让步之前,我们得先谈谈这件事。
We're gonna have to talk about this before I roll over.
而且他们迟早会达成更对等的价值交换。
And they at some point, there probably will be a more aligned exchange of value.
另一方面,Shopify代表的是大量的小型长尾商家。
Shopify, on the other hand, represents lots of little tail merchants.
他们对额外的生意非常高兴。
They are very glad of the extra business.
他们可能不会看到订单价值有多大压缩,因为如果你直接去买,或者如果你在中等规模的Shopify商家那里买一些冷门的东西,你直接去买,或者通过亚马逊买。
They probably don't see that much compression in order value because if you go directly if if you're buying some obscure thing on a mid tier Shopify merchant, you go buy the thing directly or you buy it via Amazon.
无论如何,Shopify大体上是满意的。
No matter what, Shopify is broadly happy.
他们没有大的广告业务。
They don't have a big ad business.
所以从Shopify的角度来看,他们应该觉得无所谓。
So from Shopify's perspective, it should be have at it.
Shopify喜欢的是他们拥有通用的支付应用,所以他们希望交易能通过这个应用进行。
What Shopify likes is they have the common payment app, so they like to have that go through that.
所以在每种情况下,是的,资本主义就是这么运作的。
So in each case, yeah, capitalism works.
这些高管们非常理性。
These executives are very logical.
他们会想,你有这个新的需求来源,那很好。
They're like, it's great that you have this new source of demand.
但对我来说重要的是什么?
What matters to me?
在亚马逊的情况下,我认为我有很多筹码。
In Amazon's case, I think I have a lot of leverage.
在Shopify的情况下,只要你让我通过我的支付通道收费,我就对这个渠道很满意。
In Shopify's case, provided you let me charge for my payments rail, I'm good with this access.
展开剩余字幕(还有 480 条)
所以这一切都说得通了。
So it all made sense.
现在还是早期阶段,后面会有很多谈判。
It's the early days, there will be much negotiation.
但这挺有意思的。
But it's interesting.
我的意思是,这里更大的教训是,六个月前谷歌和OpenAI那边有一堆关于各种智能体支付机制的讨论,对吧?
I mean, bigger lesson here is, you know, there was a whole bunch of Google OpenAI blathering on six months ago about various different agent payment mechanisms, right?
那都是聪明人聚在一起,把事情想清楚。
And it was all your smart people getting in a room and thinking things through.
但事实是,在科技领域,那些东西根本无关紧要。
And the truth is in tech, none of that shit ever matters.
真正重要的是有人把消费者的需求聚合起来,就像Instinct和Meta做的那样,他们开始猛敲API,然后现在所有人都得认真对待。
What really matters is someone aggregates consumer demand, like Instinct and Meta have done, they start pounding on the API, and then now everyone has to focus.
我敢打赌,就在我们说话的时候,Resy和OpenTable那边肯定有人在制定他们的智能体API政策。
I'm willing to bet someone at Resy, even as we speak, and OpenTable, is formulating their agent API policy.
我敢打赌亚马逊也在考虑这事。
I'm willing to bet at Amazon.
他们这周正在和Meta谈。
They're talking to Meta this week.
需求会促使他们赶紧把这些乱七八糟的事理顺。
Demand creates urgency to sort all this shit out.
他们都会输的。
They're all gonna lose.
我觉得这是那些不必要的记录系统的最后挣扎。
I think it's the last stand of the unnecessary system of record.
Resy会输。
Resi is gonna lose.
短期内亚马逊输得最少,因为他们作为商家,在销售上已经接近垄断了。
Amazon is the least losey in the short term because they're they're at the edge of a monopolist for what they sell as a merchant.
但最终智能体还是会绕过他们。
But the agents will bypass them ultimately.
你必须要做出决定了。
You're going to have to decide.
这些代理的立场非常明确。
The agents have very clear positions.
你说得对,Rory,这对Shopify有利。
And you're right, Rory, this benefits Shopify.
Shopify当然会支持这个,对吧?
Of course Shopify leans into this, right?
Stripe和PayPal当然也会支持。
Of course Stripe and PayPal lean into this.
这对他们有利,对吧?
It benefits them, right?
毫无疑问。
There's no question.
而亚马逊失去广告、失去追加销售、失去购物车页面,全都是负面影响。
And Amazon losing ads, losing upsell, losing shopping cart sites, all a negative.
但是,只要智能体能够绕过亚马逊,只要你能做到,它们不仅会这么做,而且会乐此不疲。
But to the extent an agent can route around Amazon, to the extent you can, the agents not only will, they will gleefully do so.
它们会非常乐意这么做。
They will gleefully do so.
你想让我直接给餐厅打电话吗,杰森?
What would you would you like me to call the restaurant directly, Jason?
哦,我发现了一个后端API,OpenTable仍然可以用,尽管它们在Resi上是独家合作的。
Oh, I found a back end API where OpenTable still works even though they're they're exclusive on Resi.
哦,我找到了另一种方式,通过DoorDash,这个接口还开着。
Oh, I found another way to do this on DoorDash that's left open.
这些智能体特别擅长发现那些暴露了不该暴露的接口的漏洞API。
The agents are wonderful at finding broke APIs that have other surfaces that shouldn't be exposed.
这可能是它们唯一的选择,但我相信所有那些记录系统、记录平台,都在严阵以待,与智能体对抗。
This is a It may be their only choice, but I believe all the systems of record, places of record, they're just battening down the hatches and they're fighting the agents.
总的来说,这对它们任何一方都不是好事。
And net net, it's not a positive for any of them.
这对它来说不是好事。
It's not a positive for it.
这对亚马逊来说不是好事。
This is not a positive for Amazon.
我明白你的意思。
I hear you.
正如杰森指出的,这个代理不知疲倦。
The agent, as Jason points out, is tireless.
这个代理确实有能力打电话访问所有17个网站。
The agent does have the ability to call to hit all 17 websites.
这只是计算量的问题。
It's only compute.
他们不在乎。
They don't care.
所以你说得对,
So you're right, a
很多
lot of
这些纯数字化的聚合业务,我觉得它们不会像你说的那样跌得那么惨,Jason,但肯定会有一些绕开像Resy这类需求系统的压力。
these digital only aggregation businesses, I don't think they'll fall as brutally as you say, Jason, but there definitely will be some end run pressure to go around the kind of demand systems like a Resy or something like that.
我不确定这会像你想的那么致命。
I'm not sure it's as fatal as you think.
然后
Then
我不是说我觉得……好吧,我说清楚点,因为我觉得你会同意我的看法。
I It's not that I think well, let me be clear, because I think you'll agree with me.
我不是说它们会被干掉。
It's not that I think they're gonna be killed.
我觉得它们会被打残。
I think they're gonna be maimed.
不管这是否意味着Resy的增长会下降这么多。
It doesn't matter if this means that Resy's growth falls this much.
如果这意味着会影响亚马逊广告收入的10%。
If this means it impacts 10% of Amazon's advertising revenue.
那就像Meta的股票涨了20%多一样。
That's just like Meta stocks up 20 some odd percent.
如果这导致亚马逊股价下跌20%,因为影响了利润率,那就是大事了。
If this drives Amazon stock down 20% because it impacts margins, it's a big deal.
我可以告诉你,整天跟我们的代理商聊天,他们可受不了这种破事。
I can tell you talking to our agents all day, they don't put up with this bullshit.
他们真的受不了,对吧?
They don't friggin' put up with it, right?
听着,我不想点名道姓说是哪个供应商,求你别逼我,但今天早上我们收到一个核心供应商的涨价通知,涨幅巨大,价格高得离谱。
Listen, I don't want to name the name or the vendor, please don't make me, but we got a raise this morning from one of our core vendors, massive price increase, massive pricing.
我们的代理商立刻就说,我想绕开它。
Immediately our agent said, I want to work around it.
这是我的想法,直接甩掉他们。
Here are my ideas, dump them.
而且它实际上自己制定了一个十二个月的迁移计划,准备离开这个供应商。
And it actually laid out a twelve month plan to migrate off this vendor on its own.
他们可不会容忍这种破事,对吧?
They will not tolerate this crap, right?
而且有很多产品你只能在亚马逊上买到。
And there are so many products you can only buy on Amazon.
它有很多优势,比如仓储和物流,但有些东西也可以在Shopify商店里买到。
There's, it has so many advantages as warehouse, it has fulfillment, but some of that stuff can be bought on a Shopify store.
这可能就够了。
It could just be enough.
这可能就够了。
It could just be enough.
这种打击对AI来说是个大事。
This maiming is a big deal for AI.
这会重创现有的那些公司,除非他们接受他们不想接受的东西。
It's gonna maim the existing folks unless they embrace things they don't want to embrace.
我有两点要说。
Two comments.
各说一个方面。
One each way.
第一点是,我确实认为亚马逊最大的防御优势在于它的实体基础设施和配送能力,但再往大了看。
One is yes, I do think Amazon's biggest defense will be its physical infrastructure and ability to deliver, but zooming.
但你的观点是对的。
But your point is the right one.
我记得有人说过,大概二十年前,现在可能二十五年前了,互联网刚出来的时候,说互联网讨厌低效。
I remember someone said, like twenty years ago when the Internet probably twenty five years ago now, Internet first came out, that the Internet abhors inefficiency.
换句话说,中间商会被挤压掉。
In other words, middlemen get pounded down.
想想那些旅游网站,像Expedia、Airbnb,它们都是把需求和供给拉得更近。
And if you think about things like the travel sites, Expedia, Airbnb, all of that is that, is getting demand and supply closer together.
我觉得你说的,Jason,是对的。
And I think what you're saying, Jason, is correct.
人工智能也是一样的。
AI is the same.
它会淘汰那些中间人,那些只是掌握信息并利用信息来报价的人。
It's going to pound down people who are in the middle, who just have information and are using that to make offers.
如果你只是做这些,那你的利润空间就会受到挤压。
If if that's all you're doing, there will be pressure at the margin.
因为如果你能降低搜索成本,这对人类来说是有价值的,但也许智能体自己就能做到。
Because if you're reducing search costs, that's valuable to me as a human, but maybe the agent can just do it itself.
所以我还是坚持关于命名的那个观点。
So I'll go with the naming comment.
哪怕只有5%或10%的影响,那也是很有意义的。
If it's even 5% or 10% impact, it's meaningful.
这就是关键所在。
That's the thing.
对亚马逊来说,关掉Perplexity很容易。
It's easy to shut off perplexity for Amazon.
它们就像小虫子一样,不值一提。
It's just they're just a gnat.
当所有人都用AI的时候,亚马逊就会面临有趣的选择。
Amazon will have interesting choices when it's everybody.
比如,你把所有人都屏蔽掉。
Like, you shut off everybody.
这在技术上是可行的。
It is technically possible.
但到了某个时候,事情就会变得复杂起来。
But at some point, it's gonna be complicated.
我们真的确定要屏蔽所有人吗?
Are we sure we wanna shut off everybody?
我们继续往下聊。
Moving swiftly on.
还有别的关于Muse的话题我没提到吗?
Anything else that I haven't touched with Muse?
没有。
No.
因为这其实不是本周的故事。
Because it's not really the story of the week.
我的意思是,这是上周的故事。
I mean, it's the story of last week.
我们要讲本周的故事,杰森会作为实际用户来给我们讲讲Jev。
We're gonna do the story of the week, and Jason's gonna be ready as a hands on users to tell us about Jev.
那才是本周的故事。
That's the story of the week.
我们怎么进行?
How do we go?
如果你想的话,我们可以聊聊Jev。
We can talk about Jev if you want.
这是下一个要讲的,而且就是那个故事。
It's next one up, and it's the story.
这是下一个话题,而且罗里这周的故事就是它。
It's the next one up, and fine is Rory's story of the week.
所以,对于不了解的人来说,ChatGPT 和 Bantaships Jev,这是一个决定而不是聊天的模型,它成了 Vercel 有史以来最快的一次发布。
So for those that don't know, ChatGPT and Bantaships Jev, it's a model that decides instead of chats, and it becomes Vercel's fastest ever launch.
杰森,我相信你已经玩过了。
Jason, I'm sure you've played with it.
你觉得怎么样?
What did you think?
杰森的评测。
Jason's review.
全新的环节。
New new segment.
嗯,首先,听我说。
Well, first of all, listen.
我可能不够聪明,没法深入探讨语义学。
I'm not I I maybe I might not be smart enough to get into semantics.
我甚至不觉得那是个模型。
I don't even think it's a model.
我觉得它是个由大语言模型驱动的分类器。
I think it's a classifier backed by an LLM.
我用过它。
I've used it.
它很棒。
It's awesome.
但我不确定它会不会像X上那些可能根本没用过的人说的那样具有颠覆性。
But I don't know that it'll be as disruptive as everyone on x talking about it that probably never used it said it is.
但它确实很棒。
But it is awesome.
对吧?
Okay?
Jason,你怎么看?
Jason, what do you
你用它来做什么?
use it for?
我主要用它来判断SaaS社区里哪些人应该互相认识。
What I use it for is deciding who in the SaaS community should meet each other.
它在这方面挺擅长的。
It's quite good at that.
Rory是GCI的CRO。
Rory is the CRO at GCI.
Harry是Perplexity的CRO。
Harry is the CRO at Perplexity.
他们该不该见面?
Should they meet?
其实这个问题没那么简单。
It's actually not that simple a question.
他们所处的阶段差别挺大的。
They're at pretty different stages.
他们住在不同的地方。
They live in different places.
他们该见面吗?
Should they meet?
我整个周六都在Jev上白费功夫,因为我得重新设计提示词的方式。
I spent all of Saturday nothing worked on on Jev because I had to redo the way I did prompts.
好吧,我当时觉得这算是失败了,对吧?
Okay, so I thought it was a failure, right?
然后我学到的是,你已经投入了时间。
Then what I learned is you've invested the time.
它能以比Anthropic或ChatGPT便宜一百倍的价格,在几毫秒内回答那个问题,实际上甚至更便宜。
It can answer that question in milliseconds for a hundredth the price of Anthropic or ChatGPT, actually even less.
它只能回答问题,而且只能回答一部分问题。
It can just answer a question and it can answer a subset of questions.
但我觉得,从数据标注等经验来看,有很多分类工作需要做,很多数据标注工作需要做,但它不能输出文本,也不能做任何特别复杂或需要推理的事情。
But I think as we've learned from data labeling and others, there's a lot of classification that needs to be done, a lot of data labeling that needs to be done, but it doesn't output text and it can't do anything particularly complicated or with reasoning.
所以这挺重要的。
So it's like a big deal.
针对这个特定的用例,我说的是谁应该见谁。
And for this particular use case, I'm talking about who should meet who.
它有颠覆性,但可能只占这个应用所有大语言模型调用的20%左右。
It is disruptive, but it's maybe like 20% of all the LLM calls associated with this application.
所以我非常喜欢。
So I love it.
我觉得每个人都会做类似的事情。
I think everyone will do some version of this.
我觉得,你知道,也许连XA和Parallel也应该做类似的事情。
I think, you know, maybe even XA and Parallel should do some version.
也许OpenAI和Chat也应该做。
Maybe OpenAI and chat.
每个人都应该做类似的事情,但它不会完全取代你的整个技术栈,也不会取代ChatGPT,因为它就是做不了那些事情。
Everyone should do a version of this, but it's not going take over 100% of your stack and it's not going to replace ChatGPT because it just doesn't do those things.
但这确实提醒了我们,天哪,我们在简单的事情上浪费了太多token,这些事根本不该让Astra来做。
But it does remind us that man, we effing waste a lot of tokens on simple stuff that Astra shouldn't be doing.
我百分之百同意你的看法。
I pretty much a 100% agree with you.
我的意思是,从宏观角度来看,是这样的。
I mean, the zoom out comment is this.
这是一种新模型。
It's a new model.
它和LLM不一样。
It's different than an LLM.
LLM返回的是文本,计算量非常大,在计算上又慢又贵。
An LLM returns text and is very computationally intensive, and in computing terms, slow and expensive.
而这个只是返回真或假,或者一个排名或分数,对吧?
This just returns true or false or a ranking or a score, right?
所以有三种答案类型,而且它超级快,超级便宜。
So there's three answer types, and it's super fast and super cheap.
他们甚至都不收输出token的费用,因为输出量少得几乎可以忽略不计。
They don't even charge for output tokens because they're so meaninglessly few.
所以它只是更快、更精准。
So it's just a faster, more precise.
这就是为什么他们在网站上把它称为系统一,这是丹尼尔·卡尼曼的《思考,快与慢》里的概念。
That's why it's called they refer to it in turn on the website as a system one, which is the Daniel Kahneman thinking fast, thinking slow.
而这就是思考快的那部分,快速给出答案。
And this is the thinking fast part, quick, fast answers.
但杰森的计算完全正确。
But Jason's math is exactly right.
不过我们周一讨论过,目前Anthropic、OpenAI和开源模型在LLM调用上的花费大约是一千亿美元。
But we're talking about this on Monday, the part of meeting is that there's roughly a $100,000,000,000 today being spent on LLM calls between Anthropic OpenAI and the open source models.
如果我们刚同意OpenAI会花350亿,亚马逊250亿,那这个数字可能会变。
Maybe that goes if we just agreed that OpenAI is gonna be doing 350, Amazon, 250.
所以五年后可能会达到五千亿美元。
So it's probably gonna go to $500,000,000,000 five years from now.
20%。
20%.
而且,杰森,我们得出的数字完全一样。
And, Jason, we had exactly the same number.
其中只有20%的情况是相关的,也就是说,现在你用复杂昂贵的模型去处理那些其实用简单方案就能解决的问题。
Only 20% of them are relevant to this, where it's today, you're using a complex expensive model for something that really needs a much simpler solution.
但1000亿的20%就是200亿。
But 20% of a $100,000,000,000 is 20,000,000,000.
嗯,我觉得钱不会那样流动。
Well, I don't think I don't think the dollar is gonna flow that way.
我觉得这些令牌
I think the tokens
别打断我,让我说完,真是的。
will don't think the dollar Let me finish, damn you.
接下来要说的是,因为你听起来就像我周一那组里的那些怀疑论者。
The next thing because you you got you sound like the cynics of my group on Monday.
这个问题我们之前已经讨论过了。
We had this I've already had this discussion once.
所以我能把它讲得这么顺。
That's why I can carry it off.
所以那是200亿,但你说得完全对。
So that's 20,000,000,000, but you're exactly right.
就像我一位合伙人说的,兄弟,你刚才说价格会降到原来的五分之一。
As one of my partners said, but, dude, you just said the prices are going to down by five x.
所以那200亿会变成40亿。
So that 20,000,000,000 is going to become 4,000,000,000.
你说得完全对。
You're exactly right.
这就像开源软件一样。
It's just like open source.
它会抢占整个大语言模型市场的很大一部分,用更好的产品、更低的价格,以五分之一的价格去竞争,最终结果就是200亿变成40亿。
It's gonna take a slug of the total addressable LLM marketplace, attack it with a better, cheaper product at one fifth the price, net result at 20,000,000,000 becomes 4,000,000,000.
但如果你是Jev,或者你是做类型安全的,你会说,嘿,那40亿就是我的了。
But if you're Jev or if you're a type safe, you're saying, hey, that 4,000,000,000 becomes mine.
这就是赌注所在。
And that's the bet.
同时,回到你那个命名概念,我很喜欢,Foundation的Jaya在Biggs发了一篇不错的文章。
Now, at the same time, going back to your naming concept, which I love, Jaya from Foundation did a nice post at Biggs.
这只是在总规模1000亿的支出中切走了一块,这些钱本来注定要流向OpenAI和Anthropic,现在却分流到了更便宜的低成本供应商那里。
This is just a slug of the total 100,000,000,000 spend that was kind of automatically destined to go to OpenAI and Anthropic and is now kind of sluicing off into a cheaper low cost provider.
这就是现在正在发生的事情。
That's what's happening here.
你说得对。
You're right.
这并不意味着基础模型的终结。
It's not the end of foundation model.
那些聪明的工作仍然会通过基础模型来完成。
The clever shit is still gonna be done using foundation models.
只是稍微伤了一下,大概百分之十到二十的收入现在会被别人以五分之一的价格拿走。
It's just a little maiming of ten, twenty percent of the revenue that's now gonna be done by someone else at one fifth the cost.
现在我们可以稍后再谈竞争问题,因为我觉得那才是真正的问题,但这就是目前的情况。
Now we can talk about competition in a second because I think that's a real issue, but that's what's going on here.
我觉得成本只有百分之一,但我同意所有
I just think it's a hundredth the cost, but I agree with all
你说得对。
of You're right.
百分之一,那这样的话,是的。
A 100 which which in which case yeah.
我们会看到ChatGPT被拆解,用户会说,哦,这个
We're gonna see, like, the unbundling of ChatGPT, and we're have users go, oh, well, this one
不会的。
would be No.
好
Good
问题不在于ChatGPT这个应用本身,而在于OpenAI的API和Anthropic的API。
The the the problem is not not ChatGPT, the app, but the OpenAI API and the Anthropic API.
你说得对。
You're right.
这是一个开发者产品。
This is a developer product.
你作为终端用户,我作为终端用户,我们不会用它。
You as an end user, I as an end user, don't use it.
你可以去试试用一下,但今天早上它已经满了,我试过了。
You can go on and try and use it, but it's full this morning, I tried.
但说实话,如果你听发布会的话,它非常专注于开发者。
But it's really, I mean, if you listen to the launch announcement, it's very focused on developers.
而且这个想法,挺有意思的,几乎又回到了Muse上,我觉得你可能会看到——我可能说得不对——人类的需求,尤其是消费者对AI的需求,会继续和软件开发者对AI的需求分化。
And the idea is, and this is an interesting thing, almost comes back to Muse, that I think you might see, I could be wrong on this, that the needs of humans, especially consumers for AI, are gonna continue to diverge from the needs from software developers for AI.
而这正是核心的软件开发者的东西。
And this is a core software developer thing.
你永远用不到它的,哈利。
You'll never need it, Harry.
但那些开发软件应用的人可能会发现,他们想要的核心智能中,有很大一部分是系统一的智能。
But someone who's building a software app might realize that a significant portion of the core intelligence they want is system one intelligence.
你就告诉我这是A还是B,比如动物、矿物还是植物。
Just tell me if this is an a or a b, you know, animal, mineral, or vegetable.
鸡蛋比Y更好吗?
Is eggs better than y?
给我个快速回答。
Give me a quick answer.
我不想听你啰嗦,然后像那种谄媚的LLM一样说‘好问题,罗里’。
I don't want to blather and have you tell me that's a great question, Rory, like a sycophantic LLM.
直接给我答案就行了。
Just give me the damn answer.
所以这不是给你这种用户用的,而是在开发者层面进行拆分,那里更可能发生这种情况。
So it's not for you, the user, but it's unbundling at the developer level where it's more likely to happen.
你说得对。
You're right.
我需要更高级的答案。
I require far more intellectual answers.
不。
No.
你只是需要一个打包好的产品。
You just require a bundled product.
等等。
Wait.
等等。
Wait.
其实,哈利,我觉得你真正喜欢的是LLM那种奉承你的部分,它们会说,哈利,你真聪明。
Actually, Harry, I think what you really like is the sycophantic part of the LLM when they tell you, you're so smart, Harry.
但回答你的问题,我整个周末都在用Jev,周六失败了,后来搞清楚了提示词和用法,周日就让它跑通了。
But to answer your question, what I did learn from using Jev all weekend long, failed on Saturday, figured out the prompts and the use case, got it to work on Sunday.
便宜到根本不用去衡量,快十倍才是真正的用途,但仅限于这些特定的场景。
So cheap it doesn't, you don't even to measure it 10 times faster is the use case, but only for these, for these, for these limited use cases.
我学到的另一点,可能听起来有点跑题,就是用一个框架去选模型,还得选对,真是累死人了。
What I did learn, may almost sound tangential is man, using a harness to pick a model and getting it right is effing exhausting.
以后只会越来越难,越来越难。
This is going to get even harder and harder and harder.
什么时候该用Jev?
When should I use Jev?
什么时候不该用?
When should I not use it?
你得跑那么多评估,那么多测试,因为我在Jev上做的事情太多了。
What about You have to run so many evals, so many tests because there's so many things that I do with Jev.
你知道在Jev上什么行不通吗?
You know what doesn't work in Jev?
在Harry、Rory和Jason之间,谁更适合加入二十VC当合伙人?
Between Harry, between Rory and Jason, who's the better person to join twenty VC as a partner?
它回答不了。
It can't answer.
你会发现它会搞错。
You'll find it's gonna get that wrong.
好的。
Okay.
所以,在那种问题和罗里和杰森是否应该见面喝咖啡之间,它会答对后者。
So between that and should Rory and Jason meet for coffee, it's gonna get that one right.
它不会瞎猜。
It's not gonna guess.
它实际上会知道,嘿,我们都在湾区。
It's actually going to know, hey, we're both in the Bay Area.
我们彼此认识。
We've known each other.
我们应该见面喝杯咖啡。
We should meet for coffee.
你得对每一个用例都做质量保证和测试,才能获得那些好处。
You have to QA and test every single use case to get those benefits.
这太累了。
It's exhausting.
然后我在Replit上被切换到了Autorouter,它会在Astra、Fable、开源的那些以及所有其他之间切换。
And then I got switched over on Replit to Autorouter where switches between Astra, Fable, the open source ones and everything.
现在我都不知道它用的是哪一个。
Now I don't even know which one it's using.
然后我注意到性能有所下降。
And then I saw some performance degradation.
所以我又不得不把所有东西都切回Astra。
So then I had to switch it all back to Astra.
你信任你的测试框架吗?
Do you trust your harness?
你能对Jev的10000次使用做质量保证吗?
Can you QA 10,000 uses of Jev?
这倒不是什么坏事,但这就像是DevOps的复兴之类的。
This isn't like a bad thing, but this is like the renaissance of like DevOps or something.
每个人都需要一个庞大的团队来优化它。
Like everyone's gonna need this massive team to optimize it.
而且随着Jev和Friends的出现,需求还在不断增加。
And the needs are going up with Jev and Friends.
你的团队也得扩大规模。
Like your team's gonna have to get more.
这不仅仅是基准测试和评估的问题。
It's not just benchmarks and evals.
我们得在无数种组合中运行这些24/7的任务,这固然是好事,但对我来说,这负担太重了。
Like we're gonna be running these 20 fourseven across countless permutations and it's good, but it's for me it's it's too much.
我真的撑不住了。
Like I can't do it anymore.
我再也选不了这些模型了。
I can't pick these models anymore.
我认输了。
I'm tapping out.
这些工具虽然好,但像Databricks这样的平台,用工具省钱确实容易。
These harnesses are only so like Databricks is it's easy to save money with the harness.
嘿,我们把80%的流量路由到开源模型,现在只做10%这样的。
Hey, we route 80% to open weights models, and now we're doing 10% like this.
这对CFO来说听起来很棒,但我发现这对我没用。
It sounds great to the CFO, but I found it doesn't work for me.
很多人说他们用Jev作为即时路由器。
And a lot of folks were saying they're using Jev as an instant router.
就像,Jev,Jev,你来决定。
It's like, Jev, Jev, you make the decision.
我们是这样做的。
Here's what we're doing.
你在几毫秒内选好模型。
You pick the model in milliseconds.
太好了。
Great.
但是,如果Jev有20%的时间会选错模型。
But if, but Jev is like wrong, like 20% of the time.
如果20%的时间选错模型,对我来说,编写一个关键功能时,整天都在处理满是bug的东西。
If you pick the wrong model for me coding a mission critical feature 20% of the time, I'm going to be trying to build this thing bug ridden all day long.
听着,聪明人总会找到解决办法的。
Listen, smart people will figure this out.
选模型变得越来越复杂,而不是更简单。
It's just getting more complicated to pick your model, not easier.
而且,这对投资者来说是好事,但让开发变得更复杂了。
And, it's it's good it's good for investors, but, it's, makes building more complicated.
如果你是Anthropic或OpenAI的人,他们内部看到Jev时会怎么想?
If you're Anthropic or OpenAI, what do you think the conversation is internally when they look at Jev?
OpenAI已经变得非常商业化。
OpenAI have become ruthlessly commercial.
他们的态度会是,管他呢。
Their take will be like, screw it.
如果有人要这么做,我们也应该这么做。
If someone's gonna do that, we should do that.
我们几周内就能推出类似的东西。
We can get something like this out in a few weeks.
我们也来竞争,推出一个低成本的产品,因为他们就是想赚钱。
Let's compete and have a low cost offering too, because they're trying to make a buck.
而Anthropic,他们想造神,这又不是神,所以他们何必费心呢?
And Anthropic, they're trying to build God, and this isn't God, so why would they even bother?
其实,Jev的发布视频说的是“不是神”,对吧?
In fact, the launch video for Jev was prod not God, right?
所以他们故意在说“不是神”。
So they're deliberately saying not God.
如果你跟Anthropic的人聊,他们的使命就是通用人工智能,也就是神。
And if you talk to Anthropic, the mission is AGI slash god.
所以他们会觉得,你不过是个微不足道的小角色。
So they're like, you are just a minor nothing thing.
我为什么要自降身价去碰那些俗气的商业呢?
Why would I even deign to sully my hands on vulgar commerce?
我觉得Anthropic和OpenAI做了一个非常战略性的决定。
I think that Anthropic and OpenAI have made a very strategic decision.
他们暂时不会进入这个市场。
They will not play in this market for now.
OpenAI和Anthropic各自都有两个最差的模型。
They have OpenAI and Anthropic each have the two worst models that exist.
它们叫OpenAI Mini和Haiku。
They're called OpenAI Mini and Haiku.
它们很糟糕。
They're terrible.
它们真的很糟糕。
They're terrible.
现在你问Claude,简单的工作流该用什么?
Now, you ask Claude, what should I use for simple workflows?
Haiku。
Haiku.
如果你问ChatGPT,它会告诉你Mini很棒。
And if you ask ChatGPT, it will tell you Mini is great.
它很便宜。
It's so cheap.
而且至少在我自己的小测试里,它们百分之百失败。
And at least my little evals, they fail a 100% of the time.
Rory和Jason应该喝杯咖啡吗?
Should Rory and Jason have coffee?
是的。
Yes.
送他们去伦敦。
Send them to London.
最差的回答,我是说,我有点夸张了。
Worst answer I mean, I'm exaggerating.
Mini和Haiku是我用过的最差的模型。
These are the worst models I've ever used, Mini and Haiku.
所以他们决定推出一些功能受限的模型,可以稍微宣传一下,但暂时不想涉足这些低利润的业务。
And so they've decided to launch crippled models that they can lightly promote, but they don't want to play in these low margin businesses for now.
他们本来可以做出这个的,对吧?
They could build this, right?
他们本来可以做的,我觉得他们一个小时或者一个周末就能做出一个Jev的版本,但他们故意限制了低端市场。
They could build, I think they could build a version of Jev in an hour or over the weekend, but they've intentionally decided to cripple the low end of the market.
而且我觉得他们对于开放权重模型比预期更早接近他们这件事感到紧张。
And I think they're puckered about the open weights models that just got a little bit closer earlier than they planned.
因为那比放弃低端市场更具威胁。
Because that is more of a threat than abandoning the bottom of the market.
这只是我的看法,但我认为他们从来没有认真对待过低端市场。
This is just my view, but I don't think they've ever taken the bottom of the market seriously.
他们推出的那些入门级产品,我觉得没有哪个正经开发者会去用。
They have checked the box offerings that no serious developer uses, I don't think.
你去Claude上,如果能切换到haiku,就问它一个问题试试。
Go on Claude and switch to haiku if you can and ask it a question.
它什么都记不住,2023年之后的事一概不知,而且它连东西在哪儿都搞不清楚。
You it it it doesn't remember anything since 2023, and it doesn't know know where anything is.
而且这
And that
说白了,这就是Jev的机会所在。
in a nutshell, it is the Jev opportunity.
虽然不是完全一一对应,但你说得对。
It's not quite one for one, but, yeah, you're right.
我稍微跑个题,不过大家确实喜欢我们聊Venture。
I'm I'm going slightly off on a tangent on this, but people do like it when we talk about Venture.
Jev那轮种子轮融了4000万美元。
It was a $40,000,000 seed round for Jev.
而且,你知道吗,就在这之前我刚跟团队聊过,他们说,哥们,我们现在再也看不到低于两千万美元的首轮融资了。
And, you know, I just had a conversation with my team right before this, and they're like, dude, we never see anything less than a $20,000,000 first raise for anything anymore.
种子轮的最低标准,大概就是八到一千万,还得是从好公司出来的人。
The seed rounds, minimum are, like, eight to 10 with someone spinning out of a good company.
我们是不是正在见证传统种子轮的消失?
Are we seeing the evaporating of traditional seed?
你觉得安德森为什么刚搞了个大学?
Why do you think Andreessen just did a university?
他们得走到更早的阶段,甚至在公司成立之前。
They need to go pre inception.
你觉得我在开玩笑?
You think I'm kidding?
不。
No.
我是说,终于有人明白了,彼得·蒂尔十八年前在蒂尔奖学金和宿舍基金就搞对了,那个基金差不多投出了Cursor。
Mean, finally someone figured out that Peter Thiel got this right eighteen years ago at the Thiel Fellowship and the dorm room fund, which sort of did cursor.
现在想做种子轮,就得去投更早的阶段。
You got to go pre inception if you want to do seed now.
早期阶段?早期阶段太贵了。
Inception Inception's too expensive.
你得去投更早的阶段。
You got to go pre inception.
但安德森·霍洛维茨今天确实推出了霍洛维茨·安德森大学,投入四千万美元做更早期投资,对吧?
But Andreessen Horowitz did launch Horowitz Andreessen University today with $40,000,000 to do pre inception investing, right?
就是把泰尔奖学金放大来做。
To do the Thiel Fellowship on steroids.
我觉得这是对你那个观点的非常理性的回应。
I think it's a very rational response to your point.
但我确实认为彼得·泰尔比任何人都更早看到这个领域,并且付诸实践了。
But I do think Peter Thiel saw this space before anybody did and executed.
他唯一不想做的就是把它规模化。
The only thing he didn't want to do was scale it up.
他不想像霍洛维茨和德里森那样建一所蒂尔·拉博伊斯大学。
He didn't want to build a Thiel Rabois University like Horowitz and Dreeson.
他就是不想扩大规模,本来可以扩大的。
He just didn't want to scale it It could have been.
我是说,蒂尔奖学金里有最优秀的人。
I mean, they have the best people in the Thiel fellowship.
现在他们也能招到最优秀的人,他们确实能招到最优秀的人。
They get the best today too, they get the best people.
你知道吗?
Do you know what?
我觉得他们现在不一定能招到最优秀的人了。
I I I don't think they do anymore.
实际上,我觉得Z世代奖学金现在能招到最优秀的人。
Think Z fellows get the best today, actually.
好的。
Okay.
也许吧。
Maybe.
Z Fellows 招到的人真是好得不得了。
Z fellows gets unbelievably good people.
说到底,还是看想法,对吧?
At the end of day, idea, right?
这类项目的问题在于,如果投入的人不够多,就做不大。
The problem with these things is if you don't put enough people into them, they don't scale.
这就是为什么 Z Fellows 可能比 Thiel Fellowship 更有意思,而 Horowitz 和 Dreesen 跟 Marching 差不多,因为你就是往里面投入更多资源,以前你靠一个博客就能运营基金。
That's why Z Fellows maybe is more interesting than the Thiel Fellowship, and why Horowitz and Dreesen is more if it's the same as Marching, because you're just putting more resources and things that, you you used to be able to run a fund with a blog.
就像那样就能给你带来你需要的所有项目机会,连续投出五个独角兽,但你现在得把这些东西扩大规模,你懂吧?
Like that would give you all the deal flow in the world you needed for like five unicorns in a row, but you gotta scale this stuff up, you know?
现在你都在跟教授一起录播客了。
Now you're on a podcast with a professor.
对,以前是。
Yeah, used
光靠一个播客和一个人躲在壁橱里就能搞定。
be able to just do with a podcast, and one dude in a in a in a closet and do just fine.
不过我们还没回答我的问题呢,就是——
We haven't answered my question, though, which
我想回到你的观点,哈里。
is I like will go back to your point, Harry.
你说得对。
You are correct.
一旦你超越了个人想法,你说得对。
Once you go beyond the vigil to even an individual an idea, you're right.
你会看到更大的支票。
You're seeing bigger checks.
你会看到20个。
You you are seeing 20 look.
我觉得TypeScript那个,可能还更大。
Think the TypeScript was I think it was even bigger.
我可能说错了。
I could be wrong.
我记得差不多是40,但我也可能记错了。
I think I thought it's almost 40, but I could be wrong.
不过确实,现在从底层到上层,大家写的支票金额都更大了。
But yes, people are writing bigger checks now up and down the stack.
或者如果你想做传统的种子轮投资,对吧,很多时候你得接受更低的股权比例,当然也不是所有情况都这样。
Or if you wanna do traditional seed checks, right, you have to tolerate far low lower ownership in many cases, not all cases.
你还是可以自己找项目,对吧?
You can still hunt your own deals, right?
然后算一下账,你得找到能到250亿美元估值的项目。
And then when you do the math, you got to hunt $25,000,000,000 outcomes.
如果我投四分之一或者三分之一到Jev,如果Jev退出时估值超过250亿美元,扣除稀释后,我还是能拿到我需要的100倍或者50倍回报,对吧?
If I'm going to do four into Jev or three into Jev, if Jev exits north of 25,000,000,000 after dilution, I can still do my 100X, right, that I need to do or my 50x, right?
但种子轮低股权比例是可行的,不过天哪,你得需要巨大的回报才行。
But the low ownership for seed works, but man, you need the big outcomes.
还有一件事,我觉得大家总是忽略的,就是那些特别枯燥的经济学常识,但名义GDP,也就是通货膨胀加上增长,从2010年到现在大概涨了两倍半。
And then the other thing just to take into account that I always feel everyone forgets, right, is discuss on really dorky economics common, but nominal GDP, in other words, just inflation, but inflation plus growth from 2010 to the day is about two and a half x.
所以,你知道,这意味着2010年的一亿美元,今天就相当于两亿五千万美元。
So, you know, what that means is a $100,000,000 in 2010 is $250,000,000 today.
你知道,就你花钱的能力而言,其实就是调动资源的能力,因为很明显,软件行业的工资至少跟上了名义GDP的增长。
You know, just in terms of your ability to command with money is an ability to command resources, because obviously, software salaries have at least kept up with nominal GDP growth.
所以,如果你在2010年写五张三百万美元的支票,我们就算四百万一张吧,那你在2026年就应该写一千万美元的支票。
So what it means is if you were writing five $3,000,000 checks in 2010, let's do $4,000,000 checks, you should be writing $10,000,000 checks in 2026.
这还只是数学,其他什么都没变。
That's just math before anything else has changed.
然后在此基础上,你再考虑到2010年的时候,世界还没那么糟糕,而2026年,科技领域的一切看起来都棒极了。
Then on top of that, you take into account the fact that in 2010, the world wasn't a shitter, and in 2026, everything in tech looks amazing.
你眨眼之间就能到两千万。
You get to 20,000,000 before you blink.
那你是不是认为现在其实是更好的时机?因为你的支票金额要求涨了两倍半到三倍,但后端的结果规模,当我们看那个光标时,涨幅远远超过两倍半到三倍。
Would you actually argue then that now is a better time because your check size requirements have gone up two and a half to three x, but the outcome sizes on the back end have gone up significantly more than two and a half to three x when we look at the cursor.
不是。
No.
我完全不这么认为,因为你混淆了一点:今天看到的那些成果,其实来自于当年那些更小的支票。
I wouldn't make that argument at all because what you're confusing for the it it the The outcomes today happened from the checks that were smaller.
换句话说,你的意思是,嘿,五年前写的支票,现在回报惊人。
In other words, because what you're saying is, hey, the outcomes today on checks written five years ago are amazing.
所以今天这些大得多的支票,也会同样惊人。
Therefore, the checks today, which are much bigger, will be amazing too.
这背后你其实是在假设,今天250亿美元的成果,三年后会变成500亿美元。
Implicitly in that you're assuming, you know, that the $25,000,000,000 outcome today becomes the $50,000,000,000 outcome three years from now.
如果真是这样,那你说得对。
And if that's the case, then you're correct.
同样的通胀率也适用于退出时的估值。
I'm the same rate of inflation applies to the exit scenarios.
对,但我觉得,退出时的估值不只是跟着名义GDP涨,它们涨得更多。
Yeah, but I take it, but the exits didn't just go up by nominal GDP, they had by even more than that.
换句话说,你已经看到了。
In other words, you've seen it.
这就是为什么事情总是很难拆开来看,名义GDP在涨,但股市的涨幅远远超过了它。
That's why it's always hard to disaggregate things, you have normal GDP go up, but then the stock market has massively outpaced that.
而风险投资的退出规模更是远远超过了股市。
And venture exits have even more massively outpaced that again.
所以,退出规模确实有一个长期的趋势性增长。
So there is a long term secular trend and the size of exits going up.
但现在可能还叠加了一个估值提升的因素,这个因素可能会持续。
But there's probably an overlay of a valuation lift right now that might persist.
这里我得特别提一下Menlo的Venky,他写了一篇很棒的文章,昨天在风投圈里传开了,讲的就是在周期顶部怎么玩这个游戏。
And here I gotta give a shout out to Venky from Menlo who did a really nice piece that, you know, went around all the venture community yesterday just about, you know, playing the game at the top of the cycle.
你怎么考虑这件事,当音乐停止的时候,确保自己有个椅子坐。
And how do you think about it when, you know, when the music stops, be sure you have a chair.
这篇文章值得一读。
It's worth reading.
我明白你的意思。
I get you.
但恕我直言,Menlo在大多数轮次里出的价都是所有人中最高的。
But with the greatest respect, Menlo have paid the highest price of everyone on most rounds.
所以他们才在放音乐啊。
That's why they're playing the music.
正因为如此,但我觉得不是这样。
That's why but I think no.
我觉得他会说,他会这么说。
I think that what he would say is I think he would say that.
他会说,我们非常明智地看。
He would say, we very wisely look.
我觉得那真是一篇很好的分析。
I I think it was a really good analysis.
我不是故意要岔开话题,但基本上现在有两家主要玩家了。
I didn't mean to take us off, but he's basically there's two players now.
有些玩家是在用赢来的钱在玩,他把自己归到了那一类。
There's players who are playing with the house money, he put themselves in that category.
他们在Anthropic上做得太好了,可能有点得意,接下来可能会很激进。
They've done so well on Anthropic, and they're probably feeling a little happy, and they're probably gonna be aggressive.
然后他说,还有一些玩家没有参与早期轮次,现在正在拼命追赶。
And then he said there's some players who didn't do that didn't do those early rounds and are now playing to catch up.
他真正想说的核心观点是,在那些兴高采烈的人和那些慌得要命的人之间,有很多人写支票的时候心里都带着恐惧,怕错过机会。
And the point he was making, the macro point he was making is between the giddily happy people and the and the terrifyingly desperate people, there's a lot of people writing checks with fear in their heart of miss of FOMO.
这就回到了你刚才说的那个点。
And it gets back to your comment.
某种程度上,规模变大有一部分是数学上说得通的。
Some part that's why it's always some part of the increase in size is justified by math.
但说实话,我觉得有一部分是因为怕错过下一个Cursor,纯粹是FOMO在驱动。
But let's be honest, I think some part of it is justified by FOMO and the fear of missing the next cursor.
这倒也没什么,但这种东西说变就变。
And that's fine, but that's the kind of thing that can change on a dime.
这就是关键所在。
And that was the insight.
你反思这一点时,会改变你的投资方式吗?
Does that change how you invest when you reflect on that?
罗里,我应该从中得到什么启示?
What should I take from that, Rory?
正在听的LP和GP们应该从中得到什么?
What should LPs listening, GPs listening take from this?
问得好。
It's a good question.
再说一次,我总是处于中间立场。
And again, I'm always in the middle.
我觉得有时候积极进取确实会有回报,但你不想让自己在那么多高价交易上投入过深,以至于一旦经济下行,你就撑不住。
I think you have to say at times leaning in can pay out, but you don't want to find yourself so lent in on so many deals that are so high priced at such a, you know, on sort that if a downturn comes, get, you know, you just can't survive it.
投资往往不是基于规则的事情,不是只做A,而是通常要做一些A,也要做一些B,关键在于组合的平衡。
As often is the case, investing is not a rules based business, do A and only A, it's typically do some A, but some B and the mix is everything.
我觉得对我们来说,就是要保持稳定的节奏,做的事情大体不变,同时要认识到,你知道,时机真的很难把握。
I think for us, it's a consistent pace, broadly the same stuff and recognize that, you know, it's super hard to time that.
但至少你得清楚自己承担的风险,这是最基本的。
But be cognizant of the risk you're taking as the bare minimum you have to do.
我这么说不是不礼貌啊。
Is that I'm I'm not being rude to say.
我是说,
I'm I'm going for
你在这儿,但说真的,你冲我来吧。
you here, but fucking you go for me.
要清楚自己承担的风险。
Be cognizant of the risks you're taking.
真的吗?
Seriously?
说实话,我觉得那段话挺吹牛的。
Like, I thought that piece was a blowhard piece, if I'm honest.
小心音乐停下来。
Be careful of the music stopping.
要留心。
Be cognizant.
再说,你们已经付了
Again, you guys have paid
钱。
up money.
这就是下一轮的目的。
That's what the next one's for.
为什么需要小心音乐停下来?
Why do need be careful the music stopping?
你们每十八个月就募集一次基金。
You raise a fund every eighteen months.
我们都有机会重来一次。
We all can get a mulligan.
如果我这次没有分成,那就没有分成。
If I don't make any carry, don't make any carry.
我下次再赚回来。
I make it on the next one.
没关系。
It's alright.
无所谓。
Doesn't matter.
但是,我,我,我刚想到一点。
But the but I I I just got a point.
我觉得那不是
I don't think that that's
我不是说那就是问题所在,但我的意思是,从那里能得到的收获并不多。
I'm not saying that is it, but what I'm saying is there's just there's not that much to take away from that.
要注意音乐停下来。
Be cognizant of the music stopping.
谢谢。
Thanks.
我同意你的看法。
I'm with you.
关于哈利,我同意你的看法。
I'm with you on Harry.
这有点居高临下的感觉。
It it it it it's a little condescending in its own way.
哦,谢谢。
Oh, thank you.
我没意识到人工智能淘金热有一天会结束。
I wasn't aware that the AI Gold Rush might end someday.
说得好。
Good point.
我整个周末都沉浸在Jev里了。
I so lost in Jev all weekend.
我没抓住重点。
I missed the point.
你说得对。
You're right.
我没抓住重点。
I missed the point.
来自那些赚得盆满钵满的人,我为他们感到高兴。
From the guys who made out like Bandits, which I'm thrilled of.
他们是非常棒的人。
They're they're awesome people.
他们可能还行吧。
They may okay.
看这个。
Watch this.
他们之所以能大赚一笔,是因为在大家还犹豫不决的时候,他们果断出手了。
The the big they made out by Bandits by being aggressive at a time when people were still uncertain.
所以,那些交易的价格,虽然绝对值很高,但相对于实际进展,其实反映了很大的不确定性,对吧?
And therefore, price of those deals, while high in absolute terms, reflected a fair amount of uncertainty relative to traction, right?
同样的交易今天做,价格可能要高上三四倍。
The same deal today would probably be three or four X higher.
这里的关键点是,如果你只对自己说,四年前那笔交易成功是因为那样的风险回报比,而今天再做同样的交易,因为定价的原因,回报可能只有四分之一,那你至少应该停下来想一想,而不是盲目地说,X成功了,所以所有看起来像X的交易也都会成功。
And it's simply a point, if all you say to yourself is that deal that worked four years ago had that risk return profile, and underwriting that same deal today probably means I'm gonna get four times less return because of where pricing is, you should at least pause and think rather than blindly saying x worked, Therefore, all the other deals that just look just like x will work also.
我从来没觉得这有什么明显的。
I never thought it fucking obvious.
哈里,总的来说,我最喜欢的一句话,我要引用一下,你冲我来吧。
Harry, in general, one of my favorite quotes and I'm gonna take you you're coming for me.
我也会冲你来的。
I'll come for you.
巴鲁克,我想我之前引用过这句话。
Barney Baruch, I think I quoted this before.
如果引用过了,我很抱歉,但他是二三十年代华尔街的金融家。
And I'm sorry if I did, but he was a Wall Street financier in the twenties and thirties.
他说,如果你每天照镜子,对自己说二加二等于四,你大概能避免很多错误。
He just said, if every day you look in the mirror and you say to yourself, two and two makes four, you probably could avoid a lot of mistakes.
就是明摆着的事。
Stating the obvious.
通常让你栽跟头的,都是那些一直很明显的事,而你偏偏选择视而不见。
Typically the things that bite you in the ass are things that are actual obvious all along, and you just chose to ignore them.
所以,这确实很明显,但你也得把它考虑进去。
So, it is obvious, but, you know, you have to take into account.
那你对此怎么处理?
What do you do about that?
比如说,我给你举个例子。
Like, I'll give you an example.
2021年,我做了一笔投资。
In 2021, I made one investment.
我做了种子轮,刚刚以23亿的估值完成。
I did the seed rounded owner, just closed at 2,300,000,000.
对我来说,这是一笔相当大的投资。
It's a pretty large position for me.
好的。
Okay.
我们经历过高潮和低谷,创始团队很棒,2021年全年就做了一笔交易,那也是我唯一做的一笔。
Now we've had ups and downs, great founder team, one deal in all of 2021, only deal I did.
你现在也可以做同样的事情。
You could do the same thing right now.
你可以说,未来四年,我只打算做一两笔交易。
You could say it for the next four years, I'm going to do like one or two deals.
就像,我必须感觉到市场有点不对劲。
Like, I have to have a little dislocation in the force.
必须是这样。
It's gotta be this.
必须是那样。
It's gotta be that.
而且,这就是你如何应对那些椅子即将结束的方式。
And that that's how you take that the the chairs are gonna end.
否则,你就得部署基金。
Otherwise, you you just gotta it's you gotta deploy the fund.
那是别人的钱。
It's other people's money.
你得让它运转起来。
You gotta put it to work.
或者,可能有一个非常合理的假设,嘿。
Or there could be a really rational assumption that, hey.
音乐很快就会停止,我们将经历StackRank,从中获得流动性,并且现在就要主动卖出头寸。
The music's gonna stop pretty soon, and we're gonna go through StackRank where we can get liquidity from and really be proactive in selling positions now.
好的。
Cool.
嗯,那是一种情况。
Well, that's one thing.
这个问题挺有意思的。
And that's that's an interesting question.
但假设你想保守一点,
But let's say you wanted to be let's say you wanted to be conservative.
你会怎么做?
What do you do?
投资一家估值五千万美元、年增长60%的公司,指望它能重新加速,估值达到营收的三倍,然后卖给Bending Spoons?
Invest in the company at $50,000,000 growing 60 percent a year and hope it reaccelerates and is worth three times revenue and sells to Bending Spoons?
我是说,有什么备选方案吗?
I mean, what's the plan B?
Bending Spoons每年看一千个项目,最后也就做两到四个。
Like, Bending Spoons looks at 1,000 deals a year and still only does two or four.
那些更保守的公司,以低于AI行业的增速复利增长四十年,我该把它们卖给谁?
Where am I gonna sell these more conservative companies that are compound for at at at sub AI rates for forty years?
我真不知道谁会买这些公司。
I just don't know where the who's gonna buy them.
如果这些资产有市场,那就这样吧。
If there is a market for these assets, so be it.
我喜欢那些安静复利的公司。
I love the quiet compounders.
只是现在没有市场了。
There's just no market for them anymore.
说实话,我不太同意说安静复利的公司到了一定规模就永远没有市场。
I'm not sure I agree that there always won't be a market for quiet compounders above a certain scale, to be clear.
但我觉得利润
But I think profit
可能会回来
Could come
几百什么?
a couple 100 what?
可能会回来,但现在感觉市场很薄。
Could come back, but right now it feels pretty thin.
