This is a great talk not just about the difference between AI labeling and AI enablement that Invisible is doing but his thoughts on IPO is also inspiring. Watch till the end.

Interesting private v.s. Ipo debate. I think staying private is a great idea for all the reasons listed. I heard some companies regret going public for culture reasons. that said, I agree with Brett that ipo shouldn’t be completely out of the question if/when a massive opportunity comes up.

Great job invisible

If his assumptions are wrong, which he was not able to give any good argument for, his business is pretty useless. The megacorps and centralization shows the exact opposite.
