What is Generational

The era of foundation models is here, transforming our lives and work as profoundly as smartphones and personal computers once did. Generational delves into the most significant artificial intelligence trends and companies to inform investors, founders, and operators where they should place their bets.

Written by someone who has built machine learning models, invested in AI companies, and edited his high school newspaper. If you're a tech reader, think The Generalist meets Strachetery but focused on AI.
