SF is over, still a beautiful place to live tho Hype around LLMs has subsided. It’s not an interesting place to be anymore. Why go to a hackathon - it’s not like gpt4 just came out. There’s nothing too interesting to discuss at a party anymore, all the big companies are too mature now. Most of what is new is just YC goyslop “startups”. If you’re still in preseed exploring stage it’s mostly too late. The directions have been positioned in. It’s just a performative scene left. There is always a cycle to these things and this is fine. I have enjoyed 2022-2025. I hearby declare New York the new bastion of what matters in the near future
