Throw away most of the advice that your parents and your society don't give you.

Because it's such a dynamic world right now. And conforming is the worst thing that you could do. I'm John is founder and CEO of Replit, which was a YC 2018 company. I am not a programmer. I am not a coder, but I can now create software. They came to Silicon Valley to start the company. And that was Replit. We knew for a fact that there are a lot of people, a lot of ideas, and there's so many

barriers in their way.

The barrier of programming, the pair of how hard it is to write software.

We're very quickly going to get through all of the code out, the legacy garbage part of

society.

The idea is to be able to talk ideas into creation.

Programs are no longer static. You can buy a machine with zero software in it and you can vibe code all of it by just like talking to the machine. The career of the future is entrepreneur. That's the only career that I think is going to survive. If you have access to computers and data, you should be able to build something great. And we're going to find towns all over the world.

Those who are having the most impact will rise to the top.

What a profound opportunity for everybody in the world to make a massive difference.

Now that's the moonshot, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome, everybody.

Allow me one second to just bring onto the stage my two moonshot mates, Dave Blundon.

Dave is the creator CEO of Link Ventures, Link Expensual Ventures,

runs a little over a billion dollars out of MIT.

No comment to Stanford here on investing in companies in AI space.

An amazing guy built one of the very first, if not the very first,

neural net machine learning company,

exited for a billion dollars, and it's been uphill since then.

He and I and Mike Saylor were roommates together at our fraternity,

so it was quite a corner of the house.

Salim Ismail over here, another moonshot made,

is the creator of exponential organizations.
