Impromptu: Amplifying Our Humanity Through AI issues to human reps empowered to use their judgment to help you. ● Nuro uses AI to control autonomous zero-emissions deliv- ery vehicles, reducing delivery costs, making streets safer for humans, and improving the environment. ● Aurora, founded and led by Chris Urmson (whom I call “the Henry Ford of autonomous vehicles”), works with car and truck manufacturers to add self-driving functionality to their vehicles. Aurora technology is already helping compa- nies like FedEx ship freight via autonomous vehicles. Even investments that aren’t AI-specific—like Entrepreneur First, which brings together co-founders to start new compa- nies—will be able to leverage AI to automate and streamline routine operations. And of course, the companies that come out of Entrepreneur First will be supercharged by AI tools like Tome, Coda, and Cresta. Clearly, I see AI as a transformative force in both my profes- sional and philanthropic work. I anticipate that it will help me be more efficient, productive, and creative in a variety of ways. I also see the potential for AI to amplify the impact of the orga- nizations I support by helping them connect with a wider audi- ence, streamline operations, and identify new opportunities. As an investor, I’m keenly aware of the potential for AI-pow- ered companies to achieve tremendous success, and as the world increasingly embraces AI, I’m positioning myself and my organizations to be at the forefront of this transformation. I hope you will do the same for you and yours. 152
