The Roboticist Using AI to Fix How We Pick Startups — Live from Web Summit with Chris Coomes

In this special live Web Summit edition from Lisbon, I sit down with roboticist, investor, and founder Chris Coomes. He shares how and why he built X1 Pipeline, an AI platform that evaluates startups the way he would — only much, much faster. It's something he wishes he had when looking for early stage robotics startups while at Google and Amazon. We also talk about the strange humanoid robots wandering the convention hall at Web Summit, why "agents" is a vastly overused word and why (his take) most of the agent startups he saw at the conference won't be around next year. Plus, why plugging things in is hard — and why (my take) that's a good thing, because it means we humans will still have jobs (as plumbers and electricians) in the future. Enjoy this fun episode, recorded live from the "Croissant Studio" at Web Summit in Lisbon. --- Featured voices: Chris Coomes:   / chriscoomes   — Founder of X1 Pipeline: https://x1pipeline.com/ Dan Blumberg:   / dblums   — I’m the host of CRAFTED. http://crafted.fm/ and the founder of Modern Product Minds https://modernproductminds.com/ HMU if you want to build something great.
