Genius. Could this work with iPads?


No way currently( I hope Apple will open something in the next iOSes.


Hi Peter, thanks for always circling back to the YC community!

I'm curious about LLMs for the legal system that can reference the law and help to guide individuals on the process they need to navigate. How much of Immigration Law do you think can be navigated independently by people? Obviously, unauthorized practices of the law would be illegal *but if it was permissible*, how critical are lawyers in Immigration Law when people are cheap and want to DIY?


I think that the drafting of documents/forms, the development/drafting of arguments, and the creation of letters of reference are rapidly being taken over by AI and I think within a year, immigration practice will look totally different. There are a number of companies doing very interesting things who are offering this service to would-be immigrants/founders. The immigration lawyer's role probably will be reduced to determining the best immigration path, advising on job changes and international travel, and navigating criminal law issues but the execution of applications probably will be handled almost entirely by AI with double-checking by the lawyer of course.


This is very similar to Dopplr.com - started in 2007ish and had a bunch of hype but not many people formed a habit of using it. It was acquihired by Nokia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopplr


If one service was compromised, isn't it reasonable to think that the scammer can access other services during this breach?

Here's how FTX deals with climate: https://www.ftx-climate.com/

Is your stance on the environment what led you to leave the auto industry?


FTX has a dedicated Climate initiative: https://www.ftx-climate.com/


The reason I stopped reading HN (looking deep into the mirror) is that all the smart people here generally have a negative sentiment to something that's math based. It's a head scratcher but easy for me to move on after 14-ish years of being here.


None of the objections to cryptocurrency have anything to do with the fact that it's "math based". Traditional money is also in fact based on math.


It doesn't seem you are being very intellectually generous to the smart people who have come to different conclusions. Crypto doesn't meet my needs but I understand how someone with strong views on monetary policy, government, institutional trust, etc will see value there.


Making an appeal to math doesn't mean something a well designed or even a competitive solution.


Yet you're still here commenting.


move to where?


If you haven't moved people to crypto, you're enabling the problem.


The labels have ownership in Spotify [1]. If any disruption comes from the aggregation of their own content, the labels will profit.

The labels will not pull the plug on Spotify as it represents too great a portion of future industry revenues.

You are correct about dealing with Spotify's competitors. Tidal and other streaming services are the labels best shot at reducing the leverage of any one player (Spotify or Apple).

I don't think having minority stakes in Spotify makes up for the alternative scenario where Spotify becomes the dominant music streamer and devalues their current music assets.
