You might know Rahul as Rahul Ligma from the now famous twitter take-over prank. We dig into the background story of that event as well and go through his journey from Uber, Facebook to building Julius. Note: this video is not sponsored by Julius AI, I just like what Rahul is doing. :) β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬ Check out Julius AI here: https://julius.ai/ β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬β–¬ ⌚️ Timetable: 00:00:00 - 00:00:38 Intro 00:00:38 - 00:02:19 Hyperstack GPUs (sponsored) 00:02:19 - 00:10:18 Twitter prank, YC, Rahul's journey 00:10:18 - 00:13:35 Moving to SF - tips 00:13:35 - 00:20:25 Why support R?
