Correction: @MelanieCanva and her co-founder/husband @Cliffobrecht didn't just commit 30% of their Canva equity to philanthropy—they committed the vast majority of their equity in Canva, which is about 30% of the company. Incredible. They also give away $1.5 billion worth of product annually, and have committed more than $150 million to give cash directly to people in extreme poverty (though @GiveDirectly). Their company's two-step plan: build one of the world’s most valuable companies, then do the most good they can do. I don't think I've ever seen a company doing philanthropy at this scale before. Huge props.

honored to host Priscilla and @finkd on LS, I think their first joint pod since Huberman 2023 10 years in and @ChanZuckerberg is both the most well funded nonprofit in human history and dead serious in its mission of providing {data,tools,models} to cure and prevent all diseases by end of the century: - Biohubs have huge pmf (i explain in writeup below) and now CZI is all in on Biohub - acquiring @EvoscaleAI, the frontier bio research lab backed by @natfriedman - 10,000 GPU cluster in 3 years - imaging and cataloging every cell type and releasing for free (billions of them from nm scale up) - releasing 3 new models for simulating virtual cells: VariantFormer, CryoLens, scLDM being close to solving single cells; they are now launching the Virtual Immune System project, a flagship effort to model the immense complexity of The ENTIRE HUMAN IMMUNE SYSTEM. i was very struck by how Priscilla puts it on the pod: if the immune system is working you’re much more likely to be healthy, if it isn’t you’re not. this may cure diseases we don’t even know are directly connected, like Depression (!!) again, was such a rare honor to host this CZI BioHub pod with @FanaHOVA . Enjoy.

maybe they should have given it a try with provers. goedel/seed/deepseek-prover might not have drawn masses but potentially less worse.
