⚡️ Context graphs: AI’s trillion-dollar opportunity — Jaya Gupta, Ashu Garg, Foundation Capital

Latent Space

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The shift from "how" to "why" in AI agent capabilities creates a new, multi-trillion-dollar market for companies that can capture institutional decision logic.
  2. Invest in or build agentic systems that are in the "right path" of business processes, actively capturing decision traces from unstructured data.
  3. Hundreds of context graphs will be in production at scale within a year, defining a new "context graph stack." The winning companies will be those that master this flywheel, extracting value to accelerate automation and build deep, defensible moats.

OpenClaw Makes AI Agents and CPUs Get Real

Semi Doped

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The macro trend of autonomous AI agents is shifting compute demand beyond GPUs, creating an unexpected CPU crunch and forcing a re-evaluation of on-premise inference and cost-optimized model routing for security and efficiency.
  2. Investigate hybrid compute strategies, combining secure local environments (Mac Minis, home servers) with cloud-based LLMs, and explore multi-model API gateways like OpenRouter to optimize agent costs and performance.
  3. AI agents are here, demanding a rethink of your compute stack and security protocols. Prepare for a future where CPU capacity, not just GPU, becomes a critical bottleneck, and strategic cost management for diverse AI models is non-negotiable for competitive advantage.

⚡️ Context graphs: AI’s trillion-dollar opportunity — Jaya Gupta, Ashu Garg, Foundation Capital

Latent Space

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The move from general-purpose LLMs to specialized AI agents demands a new data architecture that captures the *why* of decisions, not just the *what*. This creates a new, defensible layer of institutional memory, moving value from raw model IP to proprietary decision intelligence.
  2. Invest in or build agentic systems that are in the *orchestration path* of specific business processes. This allows for the organic capture of decision traces, forming a proprietary context graph that incumbents cannot easily replicate.
  3. Over the next 12 months, the ability to build and extract value from context graphs will define the winners in the enterprise AI space, creating a new "context graph stack" that will be 10x more valuable than the modern data stack.

We Entered an Era Where No One Knows What Comes Next

Turing Post

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. AI's progress has transitioned from a linear, bottleneck-driven model to a multi-layered, interconnected explosion of advancements. This makes traditional long-term forecasting obsolete.
  2. Prioritize building and investing in adaptable systems and teams that can rapidly respond to emergent opportunities across diverse AI layers. Focus on robust interfaces and composability rather than betting on a single "next frontier."
  3. The next 6-12 months will test our ability to operate in an environment where the future is increasingly opaque. Success will come from embracing this unpredictability, focusing on present opportunities, and building for resilience against an unknowable future.

Ben Horowitz & David Solomon on Why Scale Is The Only Thing That Matters

a16z

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Shift: Unprecedented fiscal and monetary stimulus, combined with an AI-driven capital investment super cycle, creates a "sweet spot" for financial assets and growth technology. This favors institutions with scale and adaptability.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Prioritize investments in companies with proprietary data and significant GPU access, as these are new competitive moats in the AI era. For founders, secure capital to compete against well-funded incumbents.
  3. The Bottom Line: Scale and strategic capital deployment are paramount. Whether a financial giant or tech insurgent, the ability to grow, adapt to AI's new rules, and handle regulatory currents will determine relevance and success.

How To Position In A "Slowdown" Regime | Market Radar

Forward Guidance

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. **Strategic Implication:** The market's current "slowdown regime" demands caution. Avoid highly leveraged directional bets in traditional risk assets.
  2. **Builder/Investor Note:** Simplistic macro models and headline-driven narratives are failing. Focus on robust, multi-factor systematic approaches to identify true signal from noise.
  3. **The "So What?":** The Fed's political constraints on inflation mean a return to 2% without a recession is unlikely, potentially keeping inflation between 2-3% and supporting real assets, but with continued volatility.
