Exploring the a16z report about AI and Enterprises.
- Enterprises significantly increased their spending on generative AI, from $7 million in 2022 to an estimated $18 million in 2023.
- Generative AI is moving beyond experimental stages, with 75% of the budget coming from non-innovation teams.
- Enterprises are reallocating budgets from various departments, including customer support, IT, and R&D, to invest in generative AI.
- OpenAI's GPT-3 is the most widely used generative AI model among enterprises, followed by Google's PaLM 2 and Cohere's PaLM 2.
- Despite concerns about limitations and risks, enterprises are actively deploying generative AI in production and expanding its use cases.
- OpenAI leads in AI adoption among enterprises, with 100% of surveyed leaders trying out their technology, followed by Microsoft (63%), Google (50%), and Anthropic (34%).
- Open-source AI models are gaining popularity, with 82% of enterprises preferring them over closed models due to concerns about dependency and potential risks.
- OpenAI's decision to adopt a closed model approach goes against the current trend of preference for open-source AI models.
Coda - Get a $1,000 startup credit
- Koda is an all-in-one platform that combines documents, spreadsheets, and apps.

- Koda offers a $1,000 credit to startups to support their planning and goal tracking.
- The platform is free to get started and easy to use.
- The discussion highlights the differing perspectives on moats in Enterprise and consumer markets.
- In Silicon Valley, there's a tendency to associate moats with proprietary or closed solutions.
- However, in Enterprise, performance and price are often more important factors than proprietary solutions.
- The lock-in approach prevalent in Silicon Valley and SAS is being re-evaluated.
- Stable diffusion is an open-source project with a hosting project.
- The open-source nature of Stable Diffusion makes it more valuable to Enterprises.
- The discussion mentions a founder who allegedly mistreated their co-founder and bought back their shares.
Sunny demoes Gatekeep AI and get surprising results when Jason asks it to explain a “keystone”.
- Gatekeep AI generates short explainer videos with graphics and voiceover based on user-provided concepts, making complex topics easier to understand.
- The widespread use of AI-generated content poses concerns about the spread of incorrect information and the potential flooding of YouTube with low-quality AI-generated videos, which could harm the platform's credibility.
- Google is now competing with websites it used to link to by providing information directly in search results, such as stock quotes, sports scores, and recipes.
- The accuracy of AI-generated information is dependent on the quality of the data it is trained on, as demonstrated in a real-time test where the concept was correct but the drawing was incorrect.
Wistia - Try Wistia for free
- Wistia is a web-based video creation tool that allows users to create professional-quality videos without the need for video producers or editors.
- Wistia's AI script generator, built-in recorder, and text-based editor make video creation and editing easy.
- The Smart Tracks feature provides royalty-free music that automatically adjusts to the video's length.
- The speaker expresses concern about the accuracy and reliability of current AI language models like ChatGPT and others, emphasizing the need for accuracy over speed and novelty in their development.
- They will judge future AI demos primarily based on accuracy and encourage others to do the same.
Sunny demoes Deepgram API Playground with a fun clip from a young Jason asking Steve Jobs a question.
- Deepgram's new tool can perform intelligence analysis on audio files, including summarizing, topic detection, intent detection, and sentiment analysis.
- Custom intents can be defined to detect specific types of questions, topics, or sentiments.
- The tool can be used to analyze conversations to understand how people are being perceived, identify key points, and detect sentiment changes.
- Founders value being understood and heard by investors, and devices like repeating back the founder's vision can help build trust and rapport during introductory calls.
