Bullpen GP @duncandavi on separating the contenders and pretenders in AI companies.
CNBC is all in on AI. I was asked how VCs tell the real tech. lnkd.in/g4E6Xs4B
"[VC's] aren't going to try to compete with Microsoft or Google/OpenAI. We are going to use that as a platform to compete on a layer higher." @duncandavi explains how VC's are trying to separate real from fake in choosing how to invest in AI companies
VC subsight 19/365: the value of a good board member is highly underrated on Twitter. Working with someone like @duncandavi is eye-opening.
Excellent piece from @splunk2 on the pause AI movement! #AI @unsw_ai @OpenAI innovationaus.com/the-pause-ai-m…
Quite a few days with SVB failing. I discussed this on CNBC with Dan Primack. lnkd.in/gFK6UZsm
"We had to tell all our companies, even though we knew it would lead to contagion, to protect themselves. Their money gets locked up, they can't make payroll, they go down. It's a prisoners dilemma." @duncandavi & @danprimack debate what SVB's demise means for the VC industry
Last year was a complicated year for a lot of companies, especially those out of consensus. We raised a new fund to continue to find, partner with and support these companies and their founders. medium.com/bullpen-capita… @bullpencap @ahpah @annisms @duncandavi @RMelmon

I owe Mark Gorenberg my career in venture - he brought me into Zetta Venture Partners with no history in VC; he's been a mentor, a role model, and a wise counsel at every step of the way. He embodies true partnership, and along the way has become a true friend. 2/

Goodbye, 2021! What an amazing year it has been! 🎆🎆 I won a $750K healthcare innovation grant, founded a social impact company, led a clinical research study, delivered keynotes and lectures, wrote a book... Who would have thought 3 years after a cancer diagnosis?
I broke the glass ceiling today as a Black patient delivering a Grand Rounds Lecture to physicians!! 🏆💪🏾 I presented the innovative framework I developed to uplift marginalized patients and uproot disparities. The lecture went very well and I got invited to speak again!! 👏🏾😃
@KellyCNBC @duncandavi you do understand that EV's cant run without finite resources? choose to IGNORE the truth that there is only enough lithium ect in the world for half the cars on the road today, then all gone and destruction to Earth permanent, then what? about 2050 @POTUS
I like @julieeelogan’s thoughts on media so much in watching Dune so I can understand them. 😂✨💕 #friends #plzsendcommentary
Three years ago, this week, I was diagnosed with cancer. Today, I'm launching and leading a large grant project with @EmoryMedicine to develop a groundbreaking patient-centered platform to reduce disparities and bias in cancer care!! Taking a breath to celebrate. 🎉🎉🎉
This younger photo of me reminds me that I've always been a dreamer. I've never fit into a box. After getting degrees in art, science and engineering, I left grad school because it was too siloed. I've studied and researched on my own all my life, blending multiple disciplines.
