Quite impressive how many AI companies Daniel Gross has had a hand in lately. Carmack, this, lots of other promising companies. I expect him to be quite a big player once some of these pays off in 10 years or so.
Good for him honestly, but I’m not approaching a company with Daniel Gross in leadership…, working with him back at Apple after their company was acquired for Siri improvements was just terrible.
