OpenAI가 조용히 Shap-E를 출시했습니다!
Shap-E는 단 몇 초 만에 3D 도형을 생성할 수 있는 OpenAI의 최신 Text-To-3D 모델입니다.
작년 12월에는 몇 분 안에 간단한 3D 포인트 클라우드를 생성하는 모델인 Point-E를 출시했습니다.
Shap-E는 복잡한 3D 도형을 몇 초 만에 생성하는 것으로 보입니다. 비교를 참조하세요 :아래를_가리키는_손_모양::피부톤-2:
제한 사항:
개체가 1개 이상인 경우 품질이 낮음
여러 속성을 반영하는 데 어려움이 있음(예: 분홍색 코와 녹색 귀를 가진 노란색 곰)
이러한 한계에도 불구하고 정말 좋은 텍스트-3D 모델을 만들려면 1~2개월 정도 남았다고 생각합니다. 이 공간을 자세히 살펴보세요.:여성_탐정::피부톤-2:

공개 발표는 없지만 코드와 모델을 조용히 Github에 공개했으며 여기에서 데모를 사용해 볼 수 있습니다.

I meet with sales reps and sales leaders every day. They often ask me for advice on how to become CRO at the next Brex. Here’s what I tell them:
Be a positive influence on everyone around you. Never complain.
Work harder than anyone on your team. In a leadership position your team will emulate your behavior. Working hard matters.
Define your success by being the best. Sales performance is objective. The top performers are promoted. If you finish below #1 on the leaderboard, consider it a failure. Use it as a learning opportunity and motivation to be better.
Never be satisfied. If you’re at the top of the leaderboard, run up the score. If you’re promoted into a new role, become the best at that position as fast as you can. Always want more.
Go out of your way to help people on your team and cross functionally. Your reputation matters.
Embrace feedback as a gift. Seek it out. Don’t be defensive.
Your direct manager has more influence on your career than anyone in the world besides you. Choose wisely.
Tell your manager your career aspirations. Ask what you need to do to get there. Do those things.
Prioritize the following when joining a new company: 1) your manager. 2) the business itself - the faster the business is growing the faster you’ll progress your career. 3) confidence in your ability to be successful (does your experience map well to the role?).
Don’t join a company for cash compensation. That’s short sighted. Solve for career growth, learning opportunity, and company quality.
If you’re in a role where you’re happy with your manager, you have the opportunity for career progression, and the business is doing well, don’t leave for higher compensation.

지금 제 나이인 30세로 돌아가실 수 있다면
어떤 조언을 제일 먼저 해주시겠어요?
(오바마)
이런 충고를 할 것 같습니다.
긴장을 풀라고요
자신에게 의미 있는 일을 하고
진지하게 받아들이고요
하지만 타인에게
자신을 증명하려 하지 마세요
그리고 아직 30대라면
아직도 다른 사람의 의견에 귀를 기울이느라
많은 시간을 쓰고 있겠죠
자신이 진짜 하고 싶은 걸
모르는 채로요
세상에 영향을 주는 방법은 여러 가지가 있다고 봅니다.
많은 젊은이들이 영향력을 끼치기 위해 서둘러요
근데 영향력은 시간이 지나야
생기는 것 같습니다.
일련의 과정 같은 거죠
돌이켜볼 떄 알 수 있고요
'아, 내가 변화를 끌어낸 것 같군'

'어떻게 Brex의 CRO가 될 수 있었을까?'라는 질문을 주는 후배들에게 Sam Blond(전 Brex CRO & Founders Fund 파트너)의 조언을 소개합니다.
저는 매일 영업 담당자와 영업 리더들을 만나고 있습니다. 그들은 종종 저에게 다음 Brex에서 CRO가 되는 방법에 대한 조언을 구합니다. 저는 그들에게 이렇게 말합니다:
주변 사람들에게 긍정적인 영향을 끼치세요. 절대 불평하지 마세요.
팀원 누구보다 더 열심히 일하세요. 리더십 위치에 있으면 팀원들이 여러분의 행동을 모방할 것입니다. 열심히 일하는 것이 중요합니다.
최고가 되는 것으로 성공을 정의하세요. 영업 성과는 객관적입니다. 최고 성과자는 승진합니다. 리더보드에서 1위 이하를 기록하면 실패로 간주하세요. 더 나은 사람이 되기 위한 학습 기회와 동기 부여로 활용하세요.
절대 만족하지 마세요. 리더보드의 최상위에 있다면 점수를 더 올리세요. 새로운 역할로 승진했다면 최대한 빨리 해당 직책에서 최고가 되세요. 항상 더 많은 것을 원하세요.
팀원들을 돕기 위해 적극적으로 나서고 다른 부서와도 교류하세요. 평판이 중요합니다.
피드백을 선물처럼 받아들이세요. 피드백을 찾아보세요. 방어적인 태도를 취하지 마세요.
직속 상사는 여러분을 제외한 그 누구보다도 여러분의 커리어에 큰 영향을 미칩니다. 현명하게 선택하세요.
관리자에게 자신의 커리어 포부를 말하세요. 목표를 달성하기 위해 무엇을 해야 하는지 물어보세요. 그 일을 하세요.
새 회사에 입사할 때는 다음 사항을 우선순위에 두세요: 1) 매니저. 2) 비즈니스 자체 - 비즈니스가 빠르게 성장할수록 커리어를 더 빨리 발전시킬 수 있습니다. 3) 성공할 수 있는 능력에 대한 자신감(본인의 경험이 해당 직무에 잘 부합하는가?).
현금 보상을 위해 회사에 입사하지 마세요. 그것은 근시안적인 생각입니다. 경력 성장, 배움의 기회, 회사의 질을 위해 입사하세요.
관리자와 만족스러운 관계를 유지하고 있고, 경력 발전의 기회가 있으며, 비즈니스가 잘 돌아가고 있다면 더 높은 보수를 위해 이직하지 마세요.
Personal Notes:
1. 이런 것들은 말로만 들으면 너무나 당연한 조언처럼 들리지만, 이를 매일 실행에 옮기는 사람은 드뭅니다. 세상에는 똑똑한 사람들이 많지만, 열심히 일하는 사람은 그리 많지 않습니다.
2. 신뢰받는 팀원과 함께 일하고 싶다면, 우선 당신이 신뢰받을 수 있는 사람이 되어야 합니다.
3. 사회적 자본(Social Capital) > 지식 자본(Intellectual Capital) > 경제 자본(Economic Capital)
4. 피드백을 받는 것은 Comfort zone을 벗어나는 일이기 때문에 불편할 수 있습니다. 그럼에도 불구하고 지속적으로 본인을 그 방향으로 밀어붙이세요.

창업이란 사실상 모험의 시작입니다. 모든 모험과 같이 우리는 알려지지 않은 길을 걷게 되지만, 그 과정에서 과거의 여정에서 배운 지식을 참조하는 것이 큰 도움이 될 수 있습니다.
창업을 한 뒤에 배운 여러 교훈 중에 가장 효과적인 교훈 중 하나는 '내가 고민하고 있는 주제를 지구에 존재했던 누군가 이미 고민하고, 시도해서 결과까지 나와있는 경우가 대부분이다.'는 점이었습니다. 그들의 성공과 실패는 우리가 새로운 문제를 정의하고 더 좋은 의사결정을 하는 데에 큰 도움을 줍니다.
이는 운동을 할 때 퍼스널 트레이너가 근육을 키우는 데 도움이 되는 것과 비슷한 원리입니다. 스타트업을 창업하고 고객의 문제를 해결하는 것에도 하나의 정답이 있지는 않지만, 효과적인 플레이북은 있습니다.
오늘 공유하고 싶은 자료는 바로 이런 플레이북 중 하나입니다. 세계 최고의 벤처캐피탈 a16z의 창업자 마크 엔데리슨이 블로그에 작성한 '스타트업 에센셜'입니다. 총 9개의 파트로 나뉘어져 있으며, 그의 귀중한 경험들이 각 파트에 녹아있습니다. 그는 단순히 투자자가 아니라, 실리콘밸리에서 여러 번 사업의 죽음을 경험한 사람이므로, 그의 가감 없는 이야기는 듣기 힘들 수도 있지만 꼭 필요한 조언을 제공합니다.
아래의 링크에서 엔데리슨의 스타트업 에센셜을 확인할 수 있습니다. 창업자들에게 꼭 필요한 이야기들을 함께 공유하며, 우리 모두가 더 나은 결정을 내릴 수 있기를 바랍니다.
이런 플레이북이 영어로는 많은데 한글로 잘 번역된 게 많진 않습니다. 창업과 투자에 관심이있는 한국 분들이라면 아래 자료들이 꽤 도움될 것 같습니다. 좋은 자료들을 아무런 보상없이 큐레이션해주는 분들이라 감사한 마음에 공유했습니다. 한국에도 아무런 보상없이 더 좋은 경험과 정보를 나누는 문화를 만들고 싶은데 그런 점에서 비즈까페 존경해요 🙂

What if every SaaS app spoke English?
In the last month, Hubspot launched ChatSpot. Zendesk AI automates customer support. Salesforce launched AI Cloud. Adobe’s released Firefly. What do all of these launches & many other similar ones have in common?
The largest SaaS companies in the world have released English-language APIs. Anyone can write English to enter some input (e.g., “What are my top leads for this week?”) & receive an answer.
Previous APIs require learning programming languages to use & have been reserved for developers.
When every major SaaS application has an English-language API, users of all kinds will be able to ask & receive answers of their applications. That is a meaningful innovation.
English language APIs allow for another layer of abstraction.
Imagine being able to write :
Find my top 10 expansion leads this week from Hubspot, then collect their logos, & for each one create an image in Adobe Firefly that puts the company’s logo on a racecar alongside my company’s logo as an attachment to the email. Then draft an email to each prospect using data from their customer support tickets & save them in my drafts folder.
That’s a level of automation rarely seen within the enterprise without custom coding. That workflow alone - if it worked - might save a day’s work. Examples like these illustrate conceptually how AI could unlock 1000x the GDP growth of the PC.
This vision glosses over many important considerations.
First, data security & data loss prevention. How would security leads ensure the workflow is executed by an authorized person, on permitted data, using sanctioned models, & the process complies with international data regulations?
Second, English APIs (aka LLMs) are probabilistic. They err, just like humans. Potential errors could be grave (imagine updating all Hubspot CRM records’ owner to a current user). Monitoring, testing, & rollback/undo buttons will be critical.
Over the past few decades, developers have built systems like this for code : code review, testing, monitoring, isolation. If everyone in a company will have the power to orchestrate software through a natural language API, they will also require equivalent tooling for application development.
As models & controls improve, SaaS orchestration through natural-language APIs will massively improve productivity.

What happened to Reddit recently about api pricing? By PERPLEXITY
Recently, Reddit announced changes to its API pricing, which will take effect on July 1, 2023. Under the new guidelines, third-party apps that access Reddit's data will be charged for requests. The company will charge $0.24 per 1,000 API calls, which could be costly for developers of popular apps. For example, Apollo, a popular Reddit app for Apple products, can make upwards of 7 billion requests in a month, which comes out to nearly $20 million per year. The company's pricing has been criticized as being extreme, with some developers claiming that Reddit's price is still higher than other services, such as Imgur. The changes have led to outrage among hundreds of thousands of Redditors, with many subreddits going dark as a sign of protest. The protests caused Reddit to crash for three hours on June 12, 2023. Reddit CEO Steve Huffman defended the pricing changes, saying that "Reddit needs to be a self-sustaining business, and to do that, we can no longer subsidize commercial entities that require large-scale data use." However, some believe that the changes are an intentional death knell for third-party Reddit apps, similar to how Twitter virtually eliminated third-party apps with its API price hike in February.
https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/13/23759559/reddit-internal-memo-api-pricing-changes-steve-huffman
Here is the full internal memo from Reddit CEO.
——————
Hi Snoos,
Starting last night, about a thousand subreddits have gone private. We do anticipate many of them will come back by Wednesday, as many have said as much. While we knew this was coming, it is a challenge nevertheless and we have our work cut out for us. A number of Snoos have been working around the clock, adapting to infrastructure strains, engaging with communities, and responding to the myriad of issues related to this blackout. Thank you, team.
We have not seen any significant revenue impact so far and we will continue to monitor.
There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well. The most important things we can do right now are stay focused, adapt to challenges, and keep moving forward. We absolutely must ship what we said we would. The only long term solution is improving our product, and in the short term we have a few upcoming critical mod tool launches we need to nail.
While the two biggest third-party apps, Apollo and RIF, along with a couple others, have said they plan to shut down at the end of the month, we are still in conversation with some of the others. And as I mentioned in my post last week, we will exempt accessibility-focused apps and so far have agreements with RedReader and Dystopia.
I am sorry to say this, but please be mindful of wearing Reddit gear in public. Some folks are really upset, and we don’t want you to be the object of their frustrations.
Again, we’ll get through it. Thank you to all of you for helping us do so.

Reddit CEO Steve Huffman defended the pricing changes, saying that "Reddit needs to be a self-sustaining business, and to do that, we can no longer subsidize commercial entities that require large-scale data use." However, some believe that the changes are an intentional death knell for third-party Reddit apps, similar to how Twitter virtually eliminated third-party apps with its API price hike in February.

Here is the full internal memo from Reddit CEO.

Hi Snoos,
Starting last night, about a thousand subreddits have gone private. We do anticipate many of them will come back by Wednesday, as many have said as much. While we knew this was coming, it is a challenge nevertheless and we have our work cut out for us. A number of Snoos have been working around the clock, adapting to infrastructure strains, engaging with communities, and responding to the myriad of issues related to this blackout. Thank you, team.
We have not seen any significant revenue impact so far and we will continue to monitor.
There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well. The most important things we can do right now are stay focused, adapt to challenges, and keep moving forward. We absolutely must ship what we said we would. The only long term solution is improving our product, and in the short term we have a few upcoming critical mod tool launches we need to nail.
While the two biggest third-party apps, Apollo and RIF, along with a couple others, have said they plan to shut down at the end of the month, we are still in conversation with some of the others. And as I mentioned in my post last week, we will exempt accessibility-focused apps and so far have agreements with RedReader and Dystopia.
I am sorry to say this, but please be mindful of wearing Reddit gear in public. Some folks are really upset, and we don’t want you to be the object of their frustrations.
Again, we’ll get through it. Thank you to all of you for helping us do so.

Major Insights:
From the Reddit incident and the response from the Twitter community, we can derive a few key insights:
Business Decisions vs Community Sentiments: The reaction to Reddit's API pricing changes demonstrates the conflict between a company's need to monetize its offerings and the desire of the user community to maintain accessibility. The move was viewed by many as a deliberate attempt to phase out third-party apps, which led to backlash.
Transparency and Communication: Reddit's CEO, Steve Huffman's internal memo and public statements were viewed as understating the situation. His message didn't address the concerns raised by developers and users. This highlights the importance of clear and honest communication in managing a crisis situation.
Impact on Brand Image and Trust: The decision not to intervene and save Apollo and RIF, two major third-party apps, further eroded trust among users and developers. As a result, Reddit's brand image has been negatively affected.
What Reddit's CEO should have done:
Engage Stakeholders Early: Before making such a significant change, Huffman should have reached out to the developer community and other key stakeholders to discuss the proposed changes, their potential impact, and possible mitigation strategies.
Clearer and More Empathetic Communication: The internal memo should have addressed the controversy head-on and shown more empathy towards those affected. Instead of simply stating that the outrage will pass, Huffman could have acknowledged the frustrations and detailed concrete steps to address the concerns.
Consider a Gradual Roll-out or Alternative Pricing Structures: Instead of abruptly introducing a high cost, Huffman could have considered a gradual increase in API pricing or introduce tiered pricing models based on usage. This could have lessened the immediate financial burden on developers.
As Reddit CEO right now, consider the following to mitigate the problem:
Reassess the Pricing Model: Explore a more flexible pricing structure that balances Reddit's need for revenue and the developers' ability to afford the service.
Open Dialogue with the Community: Engage in a genuine dialogue with the Reddit community to understand their concerns, suggestions, and expectations. Transparency will help rebuild trust.
Support Developers: Consider providing financial support or transition assistance to the most-affected developers. This shows good faith and that Reddit values their contributions.
Revisit Decision on Apollo and RIF: Reconsider the decision on not stepping in to save Apollo and RIF. The negative sentiment around these apps' potential shutdown is considerable and addressing it could help improve public perception.
