Taking a moment because I am so damn grateful and proud of the whole team and myself for what we’ve accomplished at DriveLine Media. It’s been about 18 months since we opened doors, and wanted to reflect on everything that’s happened so far 🧵

I really owe the success of it all to them, as without that team we’d be nowhere near who we are today, and they are just as much the reason we have grown to this point. I didn’t think we’d get to the stage where we’re now at -

Where we’re now looking at events as exhibitors, instead of just star-struck attendees in awe of the big players. Are we there yet? No. Have we come a damn long way? Absolutely. Are we going to keep going? You bet. Just keep watching, maybe one day I’ll hire a social manager.

How it feels watching the AI bubble starting to burst
The AI bubble is starting to pop in China. The Chinese stock market has lost over $2,400,000,000,000 since its May 2026 peak, in large part because people realized AI investments are losing everyone money.
