Featured Startups

KillerStartups’ Mission is to help entrepreneurs achieve the next big thing. Our role is to connect you with founders you can help, and founders who can help you!

When we featured Uber in 2010, Founder Travis Kalanick might have still been your driver.

Uber raised their first $1.6MM three months after we featured them. $4.9B later, we are still proud to have discovered them.

30-Second News Picks

Our 30-Second Summary:

OpenAI's ChatGPT is breaking new ground, expanding beyond its text-based roots by introducing voice and image-based capabilities. This transformation marks a significant milestone for the generative AI movement, as ChatGPT seamlessly combines voice-based interaction with its robust large language models (LLMs).

Users can now engage in voice conversations with the chatbot, asking it to create bedtime stories on the fly or provide spoken answers to their queries. Furthermore, ChatGPT can process image inputs, enabling users to upload pictures and request explanations or instructions.

As OpenAI continues to innovate, the world of AI is witnessing a fierce battle among tech giants, including Amazon, Google, Meta, and Microsoft, all vying for supremacy in the generative AI landscape.

Our 30-Second Summary:

After a weekend of severe internet disruptions in Gaza, connectivity in the region has been partially restored. On Friday, internet monitoring firms and experts observed a significant degradation in internet access within the Palestinian enclave, with the local internet service NetStream experiencing a collapse. Multiple Palestinian internet providers also experienced outages and degradation, as reported by IODA.

These disruptions had severe consequences, including the inability of emergency lines to function, hindering paramedics' ability to locate the injured and making it challenging for family members to contact their loved ones.

Silicon Valley Ditches News, Shaking Unstable Industry

Our 30-Second Summary:

In recent developments, Facebook's top news executive, Campbell Brown, announced her departure, and Twitter, now known as X, removed headlines from its platform shortly thereafter. The head of Instagram's Threads app, a competitor to X, emphasized their network's refusal to amplify news content. Even Google, a historically strong partner for news organizations, has become less reliable, leading publishers to grow more cautious about their dependence on the search giant. Google has downsized news-related staff in recent team reorganizations, and some publishers have noticed a decline in traffic from the platform. This signals a clear trend: major online platforms are distancing themselves from news content.
