Bumble is a company catering to women and is led by women.

And it has just made history.

CEO and founder Whitney Wolfe Herd created Bumble in 2014, a dating app where women make the first move, after a bitter departure from Tinder. It's interesting to note that Wolfe says she came up with the name “Tinder.”

Bumble went public on Wednesday and saw its stock soar 64% in its Nasdaq debut on Thursday. At the point of writing, the stock is trading at over $75 per share and the company is worth over $8 billion in the public markets.

Bumble’s market reception has made Whitney Wolfe's 21.5 million shares worth over $1 billion.

As an effect, she became the world's youngest self-made woman billionaire. Also, she is the youngest female CEO ever to lead a company to an IPO.

“Have a dream, chase it down, jump over every single hurdle, and run through fire and ice to get there“,- Whitney Wolfe Herd

Apple just dropped a bombshell on the AI world: Apple’s ML scientists proved AI “reasoning“ models like Claude, DeepSeek-R1, and o3-mini don't actually reason at all - they just memorize patterns really well 😳\n\nWe hear a lot about artificial intelligence that can “think“ and “reason.“\n\nBut Apple's latest research paper, “The Illusion of Thinking,“ puts this to the test.\n\nAnd the results are a massive reality check.\n\nInstead of using standard math problems (which can be tainted), Apple’s team built a digital obstacle course.\n\nThey took the most advanced “reasoning“ AIs - OpenAI's o1 & o3-mini, DeepSeek-R1, Claude-3.7-Sonnet-Thinking, Gemini Thinking - and made them solve classic puzzles:\n\n- Tower of Hanoi\n- River Crossing\n- Blocks World\n\nThey cranked up the difficulty and watched what happened.\nHere are the 5 shocking discoveries:\n\n1. They hit a wall. Hard 🧱\n\n→ Beyond a certain complexity, every single model's accuracy collapsed.\n→ Not just a little bit.\n→ It dropped to ZERO.\n\n2. They start “thinking” LESS when it gets harder 📉\n\n→ This is the most counterintuitive finding.\n→ When a puzzle becomes too difficult, the AI doesn't try harder. It actually spends fewer tokens thinking about it.\n→ It essentially gives up, even when it has the capacity to keep trying.\n\n3. There are 3 clear performance zones:\n\n→ Easy Puzzles: Regular LLMs are actually better and more efficient. The “thinking“ models just overthink and waste time.\n→ Medium Puzzles: This is the sweet spot where “thinking“ models have a clear advantage.\n→ Hard Puzzles: Everyone fails. The “thinking“ just delays the inevitable collapse.\n\n4. They can't follow simple instructions 🤖\n\n→ Even when Apple gave the AI the exact algorithm to solve the puzzle, it still failed at the same complexity point.\n→ It shows they aren’t executing logical steps, but are still just predicting the next word.\n\n5. Their “reasoning“ is inconsistent 🤔\n\n→ A model could solve a puzzle requiring over 100 correct moves (Tower of Hanoi), but then fail a different puzzle that only needed 5 correct moves (River Crossing).\n→ This suggests memorization, not a general ability to reason.\n\nSo the BIG takeaway is this:\n\n↳ According to Apple's research, what we call AI “reasoning“ today isn't reasoning at all.\n↳ It's a sophisticated Illusion of Thinking.\n↳ These models are incredible pattern-matchers, but they aren't yet capable of the generalizable, logical problem-solving we see in humans.\n\nTrue reasoning is still the final frontier.\n\nAGI will have to wait until then.\n\nP.S. check out 🔔linas.substack.com🔔, it's the only newsletter you need for all things when Finance meets Technology.

Game-changer: Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, and other top OpenAI talent are joining Microsoft 🤯

Both Altman and Brockman will be leading Microsoft’s new advanced AI research team.

This is a pivotal shift for the industry making Microsoft the biggest power in all things artificial intelligence.

Just think about it.

The 48-old tech giant now has:

- Two of the biggest and brightest names in AI working in-house.

- The superpower of dynamically balancing the two most significant AI players, by simply allocating Azure compute to their will.

- More importantly, it ships and executes like a startup but has the resources of a $3 trillion company.

But that's not even the most impressive part.

What's crazy is that Satya Nadella has managed to pull this together in less than 48 hours from a cold start and get the deal done before markets open.

Satya Nadella is undoubtedly one of the best if not the best tech CEOs of all time.

Goat 🐐

This is Jim Simons: an 84-year-old math genius who built the greatest quantitative hedge fund outperforming Warren Buffet, George Soros, Carl Icahn, and every investor who ever lived 😳

Jim's story is wild.

At 40, Jim Simons left a famed math career to launch the most successful hedge fund ever: Renaissance Tech.

This fund earned more than $100 billion for investors.

Jim Simons's Medallion fund has had unreasonably high annual returns of 66% across 30 years 🤯

For the perspective, Buffet clocked in at about 20% per year.

Simons is now worth $30 billion and his secret is dead simple:

- He wants to smoke everywhere.
- He walks around the office barefoot.
- He falls asleep at presentations.

The lesson: cold showers and meditating won't make you rich.

The real secret to wealth is just being able to have a good nap and the freedom to be unapologetically yourself.

Meet Mike Markkula: Apple's first investor who would be worth $1 trillion today if he still had his Apple shares 😳

Mike's story is fascinating.

Markkula had an incredibly successful career as a marketing manager at Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel, where he made millions from stock options, achieving financial independence by the age of 33.

But his retirement was short-lived. In 1977, Markkula was introduced to two young entrepreneurs - Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak.

He invested in Apple $250,000 that year for 1/3 of the business. Mike essentially became a co-founder.

And he actually acted like one:

- Markkula wrote the company's original business and marketing plans, which helped Apple become a Fortune 500 company. In just 5 years 🤯

- He wrote several programs for the Apple II and beta-tested their hardware and software.

- Mike was the one who gave the go-ahead for the development of the Macintosh computer, which revolutionized personal computing with its graphical user interface.

- More importantly, he helped Jobs and Woz with crucial expertise and adult supervision when it was most needed.

Markkula's biggest mistake?

Not holding onto his Apple shares.

He could have been the greatest VC of all time... but instead, he only got a great story for parties.

This is huge! Microsoft just announced the general availability of Azure OpenAI Service, with ChatGPT to be added soon too 🤯

This is massive news and a giant step toward the further commercialization of Artificial Intelligence 🚀

Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI Service started as an invite-only in November 2021. It's now being used:
- As customer support.
- Customization and gaining insights from data using search.
- Data extraction and classification, among other things.
  
Also, Microsoft uses the Azure OpenAI Service to power its products, including:
- GitHub Copilot, which helps developers write better code.
- Power BI, which leverages GPT-3-powered natural language to automatically generate formulae and expressions.
- Microsoft Designer, which builds content with natural language prompts.

Now, by making Azure OpenAI Service generally available, Microsoft essentially allows businesses to power their apps with large-scale AI models like GPT-3.5, DALL-E 2, and Codex.

This is not only a massive win for the developer ecosystem. More importantly, these APIs can unleash creativity we have not seen before and people are going to make things that change the world.

Microsoft is the Chicago Bulls in the 1990s and Satya Nadella is the MJ of tech CEOs.

This👇

This is disturbingly true 😳

America celebrates innovation.

China prides itself on replication.

Europe celebrates regulation.

The perfect example is Apple's recent decision not to ship Apple Intelligence and all the latest AI tech in the EU over regulatory concerns.

The FTX story keeps getting crazier every day 🤯

Here are 6 shocking new details that just came out👇🏼

(1) Sam Bankman-Fried’s (SBF) parents own a $16.4 million vacation home in the Bahamas🇧🇸. They are both successful professors at Stanford but the average total pay there is around $185,000 per year. It’s hard to imagine they didn’t get some help from their former billionaire son in affording such a home 👀

(2) One home clearly wasn’t enough as SBF’s parents purchased 19 properties worth at least $121 million in the Bahamas over the past two years. Effective Altruism at its finest? 🤔

(3) FTX and Alameda Research lost $3.7 billion before 2022. The fact they lost staggering amounts of money even during the bull market destroys the image SBF was a genius and that his companies were highly profitable. In reality, they were losing lots of money while likely funding everything with new customer deposits 💸

(4) Digital asset brokerage Genesis received over $1 billion from Alameda and FTX in the last 3 months. All in FTT, FTX native token 🤡 The company is now trying to secure new capital and warns of bankruptcy without new funding. This could cause ripple effects on the whole industry 🌪

(5) Sports stars Tom Brady and Steph Curry are being investigated for promoting FTX 🚨

(6) US prosecutors opened a secret probe of FTX months before its collapse. It’s yet unclear why nothing has been done to prevent the crash 💥

This seems to never end and the rabbit hole just keeps getting deeper and deeper on the FTX mess.

The worst part is that the damage in investor confidence that SBF and FTX have created will cost trillions.

This was Steve Ballmer at his finest! After the initial launch of the Windows Phone 7 in 2010, a bunch of Microsoft employees held a mock funeral for the iPhone 😅

Between 2011-2013, Microsoft/Nokia sold 30-50 million phones.

For the perspective, Apple sold more than 347 million iPhones during the same period.

This serves as a great reminder that customer obsession always triumphs over competitor obsession.

BuzzFeed rallies almost 156% after the announcement it will use ChatGPT instead of writers to create content 🤯

AI is eating the world.

Elon Musk has just launched his artificial intelligence company called xAI to challenge OpenAI and “understand the true nature of the universe” 😳

The team at xAI is an all-star cast of some of the brightest individuals within the AI space. Masterminds from Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI are leading this project.

In case you don't know, Elon was a co-founder of OpenAI. The company that built ChatGPT, a viral AI-powered chatbot that's taking the world by storm.

He left it in 2018 because of a disagreement with senior executives over the speed and nature of technological advancement.

In less than 5 years, he has announced his own AI company, whose primary goal is to rival ChatGPT and Google Bard.

In a few interviews, Elon said that while ChatGPT and Bard are focused on being politically correct, he will build a “truth-seeking AI.“ xAI therefore aims to become “TruthGPT“ that provides true facts, without any political biases.

How and whether this can be achieved - remains to be seen. But it's an interesting goal nevertheless.

xAI joins an impressive list of other companies that Elon Musk has started and/or invested in:

- PayPal
- Tesla
- SpaceX
- Neuralink
- Boring Company
- OpenAI

This means that Elon has averaged a multi-billion dollar company every ~5 years for 3 decades 🤯

Love him or hate him, but you cannot ignore him. His entrepreneurial spirit and innovative mind is second to none.

Elon Musk is the Leonardo da Vinci of the 21st century, and he’s going to change AI forever.

Tesla is on the brink of solving autonomous cars.

This makes it the most valuable startup in the UK🇬🇧 and the second-biggest FinTech unicorn in Europe (being only behind Klarna worth close to $46 billion) 🦄

What's stunning here is that Revolut was valued at *only* $5.5 billion last year. Since then valuation grew X6 🤯

At $33 billion, Revolut is now valued more than Barclays, Societe Generale, Deutsche Bank, UniCredit, and Credit Suisse 💸

FinTech is eating the world.

Discord has just rejected a $12 billion acquisition offer from Microsoft... 🤯

But it makes total sense. Here's why👇🏼

The technology giant was in advanced talks to acquire the popular communications app. Why? Because of its thriving community.

Google has YouTube and dominates video, Amazon bought Twitch and now dominates streaming, Facebook acquired both Instagram and WhatsApp to control the way millions communicate and socialize online, while Apple rules mobile with its App Store.

Microsoft, on the other hand, outside of Xbox, doesn’t have a huge consumer-facing community. And that's where it's losing.

Discord could have given Microsoft access to a growing list of more than 140 million monthly active users that includes thousands of top YouTubers, creators, and gamers.

Community is priceless. Community is the future of the Internet.

Kudos to Discord for standing strong for theirs.

I'm beyond thrilled to share that today we announced we have closed $170 million in Series C, and we are officially a unicorn 🦄

Flutterwave started in 2016 with an idea to build a payments technology infrastructure that connects Africa to the rest of the world by making local and international payments seamless.

Fast forward to 2021, we have over 290,000 businesses that trust us with their payments, we have processed over 140 million transactions worth more than $9 billion.

Also, we grew at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 226% from 2018. That's beyond crazy! 🤯

Series C is a huge responsibility and a strong vote of confidence as we continue to develop products and services that empower our users and partners.

The sky is not the limit anymore. Only upwards and onwards! 🚀

Google in a nutshell 🔍

BREAKING: Elon Musk has revealed he secured more than $7 billion for his Twitter acquisition. Among top VCs, Binance has committed $500 million to co-invest with Elon 🤯

It’s interesting to note that Oracle's Larry Ellison wrote a $1 billion check, which is the largest commitment by any investor.

It seems that having a strong personal brand and rich friends might make a difference.

Can we all agree on this?

His visa application was denied 8 times before he got to the US.

He had an idea after making long trips to see his girlfriend.

His business now helps millions of people stay connected at home and work.

Eric Yuan founded Zoom Video Communications back in 2011.

His net worth today is around $10 billion. Zoom has a market cap of $62 billion.

Google just redefined storytelling with AI - and they did it brilliantly 👏

Not through flashy corporate keynotes. Not through slick sales pitches.

But through the pure, honest imagination of their employees’ kids.

Google took children's hand-drawn sketches and transformed them into vivid cinematic videos using Veo, Imagen, and Gemini.

Suddenly, what could’ve been just another boring product demo became something real. Emotional. Human.

It wasn't about impressing executives - it was about empowering imagination.

And this reveals the true magic of AI.

Finally, the ideas trapped inside our minds can come alive in ways we’ve never seen before.

Yes, AI can be misused. Yes, it can create noise.

But for thousands of years, storytelling has been humanity’s deepest expression - from cave walls to canvas, paper to film.

Today, AI is our new canvas.

And now more than ever, your imagination is your greatest asset.

Because the future of creativity won’t belong to those who craft the perfect prompt.

It'll belong to those who never stop dreaming.
