The Truth About The AI Bubble · Y Combinator
- ▶ 3:00 Jared Friedman So I wonder if there's like a bleed through effect where people are using Claude for their personal coding.
- ▶ 3:10 Garry Tan Cause you'd be very familiar with like the personality of Claude Opus or whatever they're choosing.
- ▶ 3:17 Garry Tan Sonnet, I suppose.
- ▶ 6:46 Garry Tan It's like, you have, uh, Claude open, you have Gemini open, you have ChatGPT open, and you give it the same task. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 8:45 Harj Taggar Like I feel there are moments where like Claude Code, amazing launch, and it was like, oh, okay, like the model companies are actually going to play out the application layer.
How Amplitude Went From Skeptics to “All In” on AI · Y Combinator
- ▶ 4:05 Spencer Skates Like, no question, if you were using, I mean, started by Cursor, but then, you know, all these other amazing tools, Cloud Code, Codex, like tons, you know, tons and tons of others, it was, it was very clear that you would be a lot more…
- ▶ 19:00 Garry Tan I tried, you know, if it failed with Gemini three, then I'll try it with, you know, Claude, I'll try it with GPT 5.1, like
The Best Consumer Startup Ideas Were Impossible Until Now · Y Combinator

- ▶ 31:43 Mike Mignano You know, as long as you're not doing exactly what ChatGBT is doing, or exactly what Claude's doing, like, you'll be okay because that's where they're focusing their energy into these products.
Ask These Questions Before Starting An AI Startup · Y Combinator
- ▶ 6:14 Jordan Fisher Or is it, like, going to be the case that enterprises really do just build all their software in-house because it's just one, you know, one prompt to cloud code, the next-gen version of cloud code, right?
- ▶ 18:01 Jordan Fisher And if you use Claude code today and it works, like, five minutes at a time for you, that's, like, one thing because you're going to review a lot of what Claude does, but if you're going to trust an LLM to work for a day at a time or a…
- ▶ 18:01 Jordan Fisher And if you use Claude code today and it works, like, five minutes at a time for you, that's, like, one thing because you're going to review a lot of what Claude does, but if you're going to trust an LLM to work for a day at a time or a…
- ▶ 21:34 Jordan Fisher You know, Claude seven or GPT seven to just replicate your startup.
Anthropic Head of Pretraining on Scaling Laws, Compute, and the Future of AI · Y Combinator
- ▶ 34:22 Nick Joseph And I think there's like an interesting thing here, which is like, if you generate the model data for the models, you know, if I go to Claude and I'm like, write me some great text.
- ▶ 39:09 Nick Joseph Are really hard to get the other two, you know, like if you're trying to do something that like, I don't know, I would love to make Claude really good at my job. 2 times in the scene

How This 25-Year-Old Built A $675M Legal AI Startup (With No Legal Experience) · Y Combinator
- ▶ 3:26 Max Junestrand Exemption from human review when you look at the way Azure and AWS is structured, and we, we kind of jumped through all those hoops and just built a system that was compliant for law firms to work with, and then very quickly as the general…
- ▶ 24:10 Max Junestrand So we, we use AWS and Claude and Gemini and GPT and Mistral kind of interchangeably.
Scaling and the Road to Human-Level AI | Anthropic Co-founder Jared Kaplan · Y Combinator
- ▶ 2:22 Jared Kaplan So, there are really two fundamental phases to the training of contemporary AI models like Claude, ChatGPT, etc. 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 12:04 Jared Kaplan You need to build relevant memories, and you need, you need to be able to use them, and that's something that we've, ah, we've begun to build into, into quad four, and I think will become increasingly important. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 15:48 Diana Hu That was, uh, awesome talk about all the scaling laws, and recently, Anthropic just launched Cloud Four, which is just available. 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 16:19 Jared Kaplan I think that, with Claude III. 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 17:31 Jared Kaplan But I guess finally, I think the picture that scaling was paint is one of incremental progress, and so I think that what you'll see with Claude is that steadily it gets better in lots of different ways with each release, um, but I think… 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 37:46 unnamed speaker So like, for example, um, Claude's agent, and then you use the verification signal to incrementally improve the model. 2 times in the scene
Aravind Srinivas: Perplexity's Race to Build Agentic Search · Y Combinator
- ▶ 3:50 Aravind Srinivas Now, OpenAI is trying to buy Cursor's competitor, Anthropic Launch Codex, like, Cloud Code.
- ▶ 21:56 Aravind Srinivas It's not perfect, and I actually like the more newer tools, like, Claude code seems to be far smarter than, like, what Cursor is able to do.
Andrew Ng: Building Faster with AI · Y Combinator
Andrej Karpathy: Software Is Changing (Again) · Y Combinator
- ▶ 10:50 Andrej Karpathy As you can take an LLM app like cursor and you can run it on GPT or cloud or Gemini series, right?
State-Of-The-Art Prompting For AI Agents · Y Combinator
- ▶ 11:20 Diana Hu They do the meta-prompting with a bigger, beefier model, any of the, I don't know, hundreds of billions of parameters plus models like, uh, I guess, cloud four, 3.7, or your, uh, GPT-O three, and they do this meta-prompting, and then they…
- ▶ 26:28 Diana Hu One of the things that's known a lot is Claude is sort of the more happy and more human steerable model, and the other one is Lama.
How To Design Better AI Apps · Y Combinator
- ▶ 17:07 Tom Blomfield Why is cursor windsurf or Claude code so far ahead of, you know, lawyer agents or accounting agents?
How AI Coding Agents Will Change Your Job · Y Combinator
- ▶ 2:56 Tom Blomfield You know, I tried it six or nine months ago, they weren't that good, but this time around I built the game, and then I, I moved on to tools like, um, Cursor and Windsurf and Claude Code. 2 times in the scene
How To Get The Most Out Of Vibe Coding | Startup School · Y Combinator
- ▶ 4:54 Tom Blomfield So if you've written code before, even if you're a little bit rusty like me, you can probably leap straight to tools like windsurf, cursor, or clawed code.
- ▶ 8:22 Tom Blomfield For example, I had, uh, Claude Sonnet 3.7 configure my DNS servers, which is always a task I hated, and set up Heroku hosting via a command line tool.
- ▶ 8:32 Tom Blomfield I also used ChatGPT to create an image for my site's favicon, that little icon that appears at the top of the browser window, and then Claude took that image and wrote a quick throwaway script to resize it into the six different sizes and…
- ▶ 10:16 Tom Blomfield Maybe it's Claude, um, Sonnet 3.7.
- ▶ 14:47 Tom Blomfield I'm switching a lot between Windsurf and Claude Code at the moment, but with Aqua, I can effectively input instructions at a 140 words per minute, which is about double what I can type.
- ▶ 15:55 Tom Blomfield For example, at the moment, Gemini seems best for whole code-based indexing and coming up with implementation plan, while Sonnet 3.7, to me at least, seems like the leading contender to actually implement the code changes.
