It’s been a week of lows and highs. Good news for tech talent shooting for $100k+ salaries, and watch out what you’re clicking on if you’re working for Big Tech. [view entire message]( We’ve officially made the move! Find us at our new and improved home: [Wellfound.com](. This reflects our new identity as Wellfound, the best place for startups and talent to connect. Don’t worry, you don’t need to do anything. All your bookmarks and links will automatically redirect you to the new domain. We hope you enjoy our new look and feel, along with some exciting new features. Thank you for being part of our community! The Wellfound Team SVB collapses—and is ready for VC money again Silicon Valley Bank—which does business with nearly [half]( of all U.S. venture-backed startups—collapsed. It’s the biggest bank failure since 2008, which has a lot of people in “the Bay” like totally freaking out. “You could feel the mania and the panic and the concern and the interest,” a nearby prof told NPR. SVB claimed to do business with [44%]( of U.S. venture-backed technology and healthcare IPOs. And that means a lot of people in tech are impacted. The bank lost $1.8B on a sale of U.S. treasuries, triggering a “run on the bank” and subsequent fed takeover. A newly appointed CEO already is urging VCs to bring their money back. Chat GPT 4.0 Can Color! ChatGPT is getting in touch with its creative side. The newly released 4.0 is in full color and carries a beat—that is, it incorporates images and music. OpenAI says it also produces “safer and more useful responses.” Bonus: Chat can now process up to 25k words at a time. (Note to teachers: increase those assignment lengths.) Like Madonna, Zuck wants you to express yourself Meta is scaling back its workforce even more as it steers to new AI waters. Since going all-in on the Metaverse in 2022—and losing [$24B]( in the process—Meta has laid off thousands of employees, setting up a pivot to [generative AI](. The new project is called LLaMA: “large language model Meta AI.” While similar to ChatGPT, Zuck says his baby is more focused on using AI to build “creative and expressive tools.” (Quick! Close that tab!) Big Tech is watching When the world went all-remote during Covid, big companies went all Big Brother—deploying spy bots to track their employees’ every movement. This surveillance software is increasingly sophisticated, complete with eye tracing, biometric data collection, and an AI-driven cyber-boss (bully?) that reprimands you for spending too much time on Facebook. Microsoft goes negative in a good way Microsoft is pairing up with Running Tide to get to a “[carbon-negative]( footprint by 2030. Running Tide creates biodegradable buoys on which they intend to create kelp farms, reducing water acidity and absorbing CO2. They then sink to the ocean floor as algae. Though, there is some [disagreement]( about the soundness of the science behind it. But how much does it pay? With all the fluctuations in the job market the last few years, it seems employees are looking to know a little bit more about the job they’re applying for before the interview. Nearly 3/4 of job listings in NYC, and 2/3 of listings in California now include pay information.
