Interview with Akash Nigam, CEO of Genies, the custom digital avatar startup. Initially for celebrities like Justin Beiber and Jared Goff, Genies has just raised $65M to bring its technology to the masses. When you think about where the world is going, Ready Player One, Neuralink, and our general shift towards deeper immersion in the metaverse ... Genies is at the forefront. Allowing customers to express themselves and connect in ways that we've never seen before. This is my newest startup investment (shoutout Niv!), and I can't wait to see what Genies does next!!

Supercharging rant about how awesome it was to rent a Tesla on Turo and FSD to Grammy's house instead of taking the bus there. And it was only $240! ($290 including post trip supercharging reimbursement) vs ~$220 for the bus. And it took less time because the bus stops (and I didn't have to subway to the bus station). Shoutout Turo! On the drive while listening to BG2 podcast I had so many schemes about the Tesla ridesharing app combined with the Cybercab launch and how stoked I am

Renting a Tesla instead of taking the bus

Elon Musk is betting on Tesla's autonomous future. The company is going all out to perfect its FSD technology and launch a Uber competitor/ride-sharing app later this year. After hearing Elon's excitement on FSD V12, on the conference call, mentioning the Cybercab, and stressing how important it was for investors to understand ... I've been doing homework on Tesla's self driving tech. I stumbled across the BG2 podcast, Episode 4 about Tesla's FSD v12, which does an INSANELY good job breaking down the incredible progress in Tesla's underlying tech, and how this is Tesla's 'ChatGPT' moment with real world AI. The BG2 podcast is hosted by Bill Gurley and Brad Gerstner. I highly recommend checking it out!!

Tesla FSD V12 is a “ChatGPT Moment”

Tesla Q1 2024 earnings are hot off the press! Tesla crushes it with a surprise $1B+ GAAP profit, strong guidance and and absolutely legendary conference call. Tesla is going all in on FSD with the new V12 rewrite, and its Robotaxi event on 8/8, where it looks like the 'Cybercab' will be unveiled. Elon Musk shocked Tesla fans and shareholders on the earnings call when he said the new cheaper vehicle would be ready for production as soon as late 2024 or early 2025. What are your thoughts on the quarter!? I was so stoked I bought $2,000 worth of Tesla stock today!! Also a little bit of a sad call at the end with head of IR Martin Viecha leaving the company.

Tesla Q1 2024 Earnings CRUSH! Cybercab coming soon 

Tesla stock falls to it's lowest in years, and I'm buying. Here's my rant on everything from the recent layoffs, Elon's motivation & pay package, to the Robotaxi launch on 8/8, Cybertruck progress, Austin factory expansion, FSD taking over & so much more!! I even read my Ode to Austin & Cybertruck Poem lol.
