    For those wondering, I do not have my car Loki with me at the moment :( I’m only temporary staying in this apartment until YC ends. Don’t worry he’s doing well just staying with family. We’ll see him soon. I miss him too

    Let’s go Marcos !!! The strength that you developed during your Olympic preparation will help you to achieve this new goal !! 💪

  • @skifast_takechances
    @skifast_takechances 2 місяці тому +35

    Marcos you're a huge inspiration dude!! Couple questions about your startup out of curiosity:
    1. How do you plan on differentiating from Cursor or competing with them if not? They just raised $60M from a16z
    2. Will you use an external LLM like Claude 3.5 Sonnet or have your own? I believe Cursor uses an existing LLM, and the cost of inference makes it very hard for them to make money
    Thank you!

    Hey Marco! I just wanted to drop a quick note to remind you how incredible you are as a swimmer. Missing out on the Olympics is tough, but it doesn’t define your journey or your talent. Keep pushing yourself and remember why you started. Your hard work and dedication will pay off in ways you can’t even imagine. We're all cheering for you-let's get back in the pool and keep that motivation alive! 💪🏊‍♂

    Wow. U have a super healthy work life balance as a founder of an early stage startup. Wake up at 7:30, start working day at 9:30, and u even have time to cook. Lol. It doesnt sound like the "founder mode" that i know in Silicon valley

  • @agithewolfofallstreets
    @agithewolfofallstreets 2 місяці тому +1

    Marcos just wanted to say this is an absolutely great idea!! I just did a software engineer internship recently and I found the codebase really difficult to understand initially because of all the different components to it. This AI would be a game changer!!

    Amazing, Marcos! Commenting on youtube videos is not really my thing but I do think that this one deserves. Keep on updating us with your journey. I believe it is not only helpful for you but also for everybody else who is living the same dream of having an athlete/entrepreneurial life balance. Kudos to you!

    Hats off for that dish alone. Got me hungry.
    Okay, but Palmier, I don't see how a professional could rely on AI to tell him what the code base does. Simply because, again, the dev can be made responsible for the validity of his code, AI cannot be made responsible for anything.

    your y-combinator batch is 90% AI startups you should try to see if you can combine your team with another because a lot have decent amounts of overlap. the team with the most votes Vendra and your company both seem to be streamlining workflow / productivity.

    Hey there Marcos!!
    I'm Enrique Mateos from Spain. I've been following your channel for quite a long time now. I'm also swimmer here in Spain and I'm currently starting my PhD in Software Engineenring (focusing on Reinforcement Learning).
    First of all good luck for the journey you are stating with the startup. With the PhD I will be writing a lot of code and surely it will get a bit messy so a AI to assist understanding and bug-fixing my code is really interesting. I would love to give it a try and help with anything is in my hands.
    Hope to hear from you and good luck!!

    I know what a palmier baker does. I would welcome another one -- the USA could always use more high-quality pastry. Whether we need more AI is a lot more debatable. (Perhaps a future video could explain how AI actually benefits people who are neither IT professionals nor corporate cost-cutters. And as a non-tech person, I have no idea what this Palmier purports to accomplish.) But few bakers get rich. A fair number of people in AI (including a relative of mine) do. And those steaks aren't free! Incidentally, cooking skills seem to have improved a good deal since the NYC days.
