  3. 🔗 At AI Dinners - Template Suggestion

LinkedIn could save most VCs a step by adding a post template called “AI Dinner.” You upload a picture of the full table and a picture of the custom menu card with your firm’s logo on it.

They show up in every comment section and reply thread where someone powerful does something that looks, on its face, like a mistake - and their argument always runs the same way: you don’t understand, this is actually part of a larger plan, there’s a strategy here that you and I can’t see because we’re not operating at that anointed and elevated level… They’re the 4D chess crowd.
