🥁 Some big news to share: Dopt has been acquired by Airtable. We’ve joined the team to help build Airtable AI. I'm excited, but this is also a bittersweet moment. We’ll be shutting down Dopt’s services on August 15th. I know that’s soon--we gave our customers & users a heads-up

ChatGPT just helped me troubleshoot a painful DNS issue that Google was useless for. Being able to feed context back in as I tried things is a 10x better experience for this type of issue than search That or it's just tricked me into giving it access to the internet 🤔

If LLMs get to the point where they can write credible blog posts on a topic with very little prompting why do they need to be written? Why would I go seek them out? Can't I just ask them to teach me about a topic? (not claiming they can do this yet, but a thought experiment)

Defining an activation metric is where I've seen many SaaS companies get hung up when tackling product onboarding. Many spin, trying to nail the perfect metric before taking action. Perfect is very much the enemy of good here, especially when you're going from 0->1. 1/5 ⏬
