Turns out we can predict the future
excited for what comes next
Our prediction for this Prime Day comes from Mimi, our newest prediction model at Social Intelligence Labs.
Mimi simulates 60 million people using census data and enriched persona data from other public sources and social media. We have been building Mimi over the past few months and are excited to test it publicly for the first time.
Overall, here are our thoughts:
A smaller event than Prime Day. About $109 per household, roughly a quarter below June's $143, with orders around $47 (June: $48). About half of households place two or more orders (June: 63%).
Awareness high, enthusiasm modest. 91% knew about the event, but only about one in three (32%) shopped mainly because of it, and 56% are very or extremely satisfied with the deals.
Careful shoppers. About one in three (32%) are more cautious because of the economy, and 54% compare prices across
retailers.
Early holiday shopping, light AI use. About one in four (23%) buy holiday gifts; about one in five (21%) use AI shopping tools
We will report back when Numerator's data comes out in a couple of weeks.

Genuinely canβt tell if this is a typo because itβs a huge win for Europe either way
Ground breaking investment for the European economy.
The sheer volume of money being put behind AI investments in the EU putting America to shame

VCs will watch a college football locker room speech and think it's exactly what the founder of a B2B expense management startup needs to hear.
Five people, two weeks, $300k
Apparently you can build a frontier AI model without raising $500 million and hiring half of your employees from Stanford and Ivy League universities
Inconvenient development for the rest of SF

Venturemaxxing Night Recap
140+ VCs & LPs, one warehouse turned into a museum: legendary brags duct-taped into gold frames, the fleece vest, the holy trinity of every VC bookshelf, a few dead startup toys (RIP Juicero), and the iPhone with ventureβs most brutal text βweβre oversubscribedβπ
Thanks to everyone who filled the gallery with aura and to our co-host @VCBrags, and a very special thanks to our partners @sydecario, @harmonic_ai, @Google, @Stifel, and @GoldenEggMediaβ€οΈ
Next stop is NYC in November - donβt miss it!

The device in question
We discovered a sophisticated recording device that was hidden inside one of our offices. We used our models to understand the device and where it had come from, identifying that a specific employee had planted it a few days earlier. We referred the matter to the FBI, and weβre grateful to the agents and prosecutors who moved quickly to make an arrest. The FBIβs investigation is ongoing and we will continue to support their work.
At this time, we have no indications of this individual inappropriately accessing or exfiltrating model weights, source code, or customer data. The employee was terminated.
We take protecting our technology, data, and people seriously, and as a matter of national importance. Our security program is designed to protect against a wide range of threat actors, from insider risks to cybercriminals to nation states, and this case is an example of how AI can help address these sophisticated security threats.

enough of these cliff hanger posts trying to engagement bait people into guessing who you invested in
Does this mean I can clone a famous angel investors voice to hear about they invested early in Uber?
