    42:30 he starts describing exactly what the aim of my new venture (Rebecker Specialties) is doing. Some of our technology underpinnings are already winning innovation awards, and our early end-to-end demos are eliciting the “whoa” we had been hoping for. That said, I’m not sure typical VC backing and cash-out expectations are compatible with making these kinds of reskilling/upskilling capabilities sustainably available to folks lower on the socio-economic scale where they are needed most. To paraphrase one response we got: “we couldn’t get to the required level of conviction that reaching underserved communities is worth sacrificing a path to a $10B valuation”. I know 2024 is a rough year for LPs (and everyone), but this kind of binary thinking - that a single company has to return the fund within 2 years - has been the ultimate difficulty for me as a founder.

    Every example showcases how AI augments design, art, and video - essentially devaluing and/or ripping off artists. No one needs that. How about a truly beneficial use case? Simplifying tax filing or advancing cancer care come to mind.
