GPT-5 is the smartest model we've ever done, but the main thing we pushed for is real-world utility and mass accessibility/affordability.
we can release much, much smarter models, and we will, but this is something a billion+ people will benefit from.
(most of the world has only used models like GPT-4o!)
Big ups to our Operations Manager, Elaina, for passing her 1 year anniversary with @loiventure. Thanks for all you do behind the scenes.

A founder asked me how he could develop thicker skin - more immunity to criticism. Any advice here for him?
Being a founder is lonely.
Forward this to a young entrepreneur you believe in.
And if they don’t have enough people in their corner, encourage them to apply to @loiaccelerator's Labs Batch 14 by Feb 2nd: bit.ly/3Claiak

When I talk to students they often think that if they want to start a startup one day they should be learning about economics or finance. I tell them they should instead be learning how to build things. Building is the root.
We're teaming up with @BetaKit to giveaway 5 free tickets to their Vancouver Town Hall event with @jack_newton and a few other powerhouses.
It's taking place Oct 22nd @ 5pm.
Wanna try your luck to win? Just Follow @BetaKit and @loiventure and tag 1 friend below to enter.
