Why? One asteroid can contain up to $10,000 quadrillion(!) of rare material.
This is enabled by computer vision, affordable rocket rides, and small sat maturation.
AI is changing everything, and it's not just ChatGPT or self-driving cars.
You'd be surprised at just how broadly AI is being applied across tons of industries.
I’ve now invested in 50 AI startups, and here are some recent investments using AI in fascinating applications 👇

With 130+ million downloads on iOS and Android and 2 billion images created, they are likely the largest consumer AI startup around.
My 8-year-old uses @WOMBO like I did Photoshop way back when. So fun.
@BiofireUSA is building a handgun that only fires for the authenticated owner, ensuring that kids don’t stumble upon a gun and tragically lose their life.
Imagine incredibly low-latency and accurate FaceID-like auth for guns.
Not only does @runwayml speed up creation, they also enable wild ideas that exist only in your mind to come to life.

We cannot rely on mining lithium to fuel EV expansion, and human disassembly of EV batteries is dangerous and slow.
The solution: autonomous robots disassembling batteries, powered by machine vision!
@Rain__AI is working on precisely that, pioneering a neuromorphic processing unit (NPU) that's 10,000x more efficient, delivering what comes after the GPU & deep learning.
How much more could we build on our planet if we had a low-cost, around-the-clock workforce of robot earth-moving machines? A lot!
The amount of unproductive time in ML today is staggering, which is why @StrongCompute is growing so fast.
One customer: “Strong Compute took our core algorithm training from 30 hours to 5 minutes.”
With @md_ai_, you can create or browse the best medical datasets in the world, and then train and deploy state-of-the-art medical ML models.
Think about enabling thousands of vehicles in rail yards, mines, airports, and fields to drive by themselves.
@PolymathRobots's key insight is reducing integration time with sim, and it’s working.
They tightly integrated a 4K mirrorless lens, beamforming mics, and computer vision to deliver the best webcam out there.
Imagine being able to search millions of videos with complex questions, with AI pin-pointing non-obvious but relevant scenes.
Basically, useful video search is finally here.
Here are a bunch more super cool AI startups to check out.

3 years ago, I started angel investing in machine learning and autonomous robot startups. I'm now 35 startups in, learning a lot, and having a blast.

I’m torn on how to approach the idea of luck. I’m the first to admit that I am one of the luckiest people on the planet. To be born into a prosperous American family in 1960 with smart parents is to start life on third base. The odds against my very existence are astronomical.
I’ve always felt that the luckiest people I know had a talent for recognizing circumstances, not of their own making, that were conducive to a favorable outcome and their ability to quickly take advantage of them.
In other words, dumb luck was just that, it required no awareness on the person’s part, whereas “smart” luck involved awareness followed by action before the circumstances changed.
So, was I “lucky” to be born when I was—nothing I had any control over—and that I came of age just as huge databases and computers were advancing to the point where I could use those tools to write “What Works on Wall Street?” Absolutely.
Was I lucky to start my stock market investments near the peak of interest rates which allowed me to spend the majority of my adult life in a falling rate environment? Yup.

"Luck is the flip side of risk. They are mirrored cousins, driven by the same thing: You are one person in a 7 billion player game, and the accidental impact of other people\u2019s actions can be more consequential than your own."
