Is sama investing as an individual or is he investing through y combinator somehow?
If it's as an individual this can be interpreted as further proof that he is positioning himself to run for governor of cali in a future election.
- vonklaus 9y agohe's only run YC for 3 years. Not knowing him personally; everything I've seen from him publicly points to him believing that he can do more as head of YC than in a public office like governor. I also suspect he believes that to do either job effectively it would be mutually exclusive. I think he is committed to YC short term; but maybe you are correct if you look pretty far downfield.
- GuiA 9y agoCurious to hear what some of the prior proof would be.
