We’re backing Atoms, and @bhorowitz is joining the board. @travisk has been working on Atoms for 8 years, in stealth, to digitize the physical world. It is inevitable that within a generation, robots are going to do most of the menial work in the world of atoms: transforming atoms, moving atoms, and storing atoms. Atoms will make us more productive in the physical world the same way digital computers did for bits. Travis has three of them so far: Atoms Food, Atoms Mining, and Atoms Transport. All are trillion dollar industries, so he's got some work to do, and we're excited to help him win. "Industrial AI" as a category is the application of specialized robots to atoms-heavy industries like these. It takes a rare kind of entrepreneur to change these old-school, heavy parts of our economy. Travis is that guy. travis kalanick @travisk x.com/i/article/2079… 🔗 View Quoted Tweet 💬 3 🔄 8 ❤️ 103 👀 11795 📊 12 ⚡
