  • What’s up with “like”?

    I just listened to Uncapped #13 and I can’t believe the many times “like” was used in each sentence of their conversation. Please tone it down. It sounds annoying after a while.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Uncapped #55 | Tony Xu from DoorDash
Q: What role do you see for physical-world AI applications like autonomous delivery and robotics in the near term?
LLMs have opened a new spin on traditional autonomous work, and we expect autonomous vehicles and robotics to mature, but the real bottleneck remains the end-to-end throughput in kitchens and stores. Drones or autonomous vehicles can help in the delivery leg, but they won't replace core fulfillment challenges; you still need efficient inventory, prep times, and last-mile orchestration.
Uncapped #55 | Tony Xu from DoorDash
Q: What is your framework for evaluating AI spend at a company like DoorDash, where token usage is rising but you want measurable customer outcomes?
We start with customer jobs we actually can solve and then push for outcomes with the teams. There will be inefficiencies in the discovery phase, but we try to structure experimentation around specific customer goals and then measure impact through tangible metrics like faster onboarding, better catalog generation, and more reliable delivery, while recognizing that some areas will have broader organizational benefits beyond immediate metric improvements.
Uncapped #48 | Tarek Mansour from Kalshi
Q: What was the key driver for Kalshi to pursue prediction markets despite regulatory hurdles?
The core idea was that markets can aggregate information about future events, and by applying a market mechanism to questions about the future, you could get smarter, more accurate answers than relying on opinions alone.
Uncapped #45 | Ron Conway from SV Angel
Q: How did you respond during the COVID-19 crisis to help your portfolio companies survive?
Conway describes sweeping, decisive actions to secure capital quickly, instructing founders to push through challenges, and leveraging relationships with investors like Silver Lake to stabilize companies during a time of acute uncertainty.
Uncapped #45 | Ron Conway from SV Angel
Q: What is the mindset behind building a broad, connected network that can help founders gain distribution and partnerships?
The mindset is to be the human router, constantly connecting people, nurturing relationships over time, and maintaining a long-term commitment to the ecosystem, rather than just chasing immediate financial returns.
