VC podcast: SF survival tips, why dunking on SaaS backfires and marketing AI is hard
briannekimmel · x · 2026-09-10
Investor Brianna Kimmel and @creatinecycle recorded a casual park-side podcast in San Francisco. Topics include the "SaaS-pocalypse" thesis (even if you're right, dunking on companies makes you sound like an asshole), how Worklife builds community with AI researchers ("I'm not sitting at the Starbucks across the street from NeurIPS"), why marketing AI to the rest of the world is hard, @signulll on AI writing, and how one's relationship with SF changes over time.
