AI will unbundle jobs. At our annual meeting, Ethan Mollick, associate professor at The Wharton School and author of Co-Intelligence, pointed out that most professional roles today are bundles of disparate skills. He suggests we'll see AI support the specialized unbundling of professional tasks, allowing people to concentrate on what they genuinely excel at and enjoy.

Pay attention if a small number of thoughtful people really love your product. That's the advice Lukas Biewald, co-founder & CEO of Weights & Biases gave to Felicis Fellows in 2024 on his journey building the AI dev platform. And what a path it's been—from building out of OpenAI's office to yesterday's announcement of the acquisition by CoreWeave!

Congrats to Lukas Biewald, Shawn Lewis, Chris Van Pelt and the entire team at Weights & Biases on this monumental day! We can’t wait to see what you do as part of the CoreWeave team!
Today we announced that we are being acquired by CoreWeave, the AI Hyperscaler. We could not be prouder or more excited to join forces with this team. We started Weights & Biases because we believed deeply in the power of AI to improve the world. It was and is our life’s mission to support the people out on the frontier pushing the research forward by building great software. CoreWeave has built complementary infrastructure and software for the same researchers and has an equally strong reputation for high quality service. We could only join forces with someone committed to continuing to deliver great products to our customers. And we’ve felt a shared deep respect for our customer base and a familiar intensity around moving quickly to support them. We look forward to collaborating with the CoreWeave team to build out an end-to-end platform for the world’s leading AI labs and enterprises to build, tune and deploy AI applications. https://lnkd.in/eDwMVaK4

Huge congrats and hugely proud of Lukas Biewald and the Weights & Biases team ! This is the 3rd time we at Felicis backed Lukas Biewald, by far his biggest and most ambitious company - also feel like this acquisition will be super beneficial to both companies - there is so much room for growth in this space. Really appreciate the opportunity to be part of this journey and can’t wait to see what more to come here ! ??????????
