The Strategy to Eliminate Bias in Job Interviews | Greenhouse CEO Daniel Chait

Oct 7, 2026 · 1:08:26

Daniel Chait, co-founder and CEO of Greenhouse, argues AI has created a hiring market where neither side is happy, as auto-applied applications flood pipelines and AI filters tighten in a 'doom loop.' He says 1 to 1.5% of applicants hard-fail ID checks, recounts North Korean operatives infiltrating companies, and describes Greenhouse's 'Swiss cheese' security layers. Greenhouse's My Dream Job feature converts applicants to hires at five times the usual rate, and an AI-led first interview can eliminate the 50 percentage point racial bias gap from 2003 resume studies while saving six days per hire. He contends durable skills beat technical ones, Greenhouse must become Netflix rather than Blockbuster under its new mission to make hiring work for everyone, and companies will hire AI agents.

Reid Hoffman, LinkedIn Founder: 99% of People Are Using AI Wrong

Jul 19, 2026 · 1:00:42

Reid Hoffman, LinkedIn co-founder, argues most people underutilize AI by treating it as a search engine rather than an agentic workforce, predicting a shift where humans become managers of AI agent teams. He explains that Blitzscaling today means using AI to rapidly build and discard prototypes, while distribution remains a critical moat for startups. Hoffman warns that negative AI perception in the US and Europe risks ceding leadership to Asia, which embraces the cognitive Industrial Revolution. He highlights the importance of taste and judgment as skills that AI amplifies rather than replaces, and contrasts Anthropic's enterprise focus with OpenAI's consumer strength. Drawing from his decade on Microsoft's board, he shares Satya Nadella's lessons on rebuilding culture, corporate partnerships, and treating AI agents as employees that work for the company. Hoffman also spotlights applications in drug discovery (Manus AI) and personalized AI to maintain human connections.

Why We Sold To Grammarly | Rahul Vohra

Jun 21, 2026 · 1:01:18

Rahul Vohra, founder of Superhuman and now CEO of Superhuman Group after the company's acquisition by Grammarly, argues that email remains the most enduring layer of work identity and that AI will radically transform the inbox experience while distribution and taste-driven focus are the lasting moats in an era of near-zero software costs. He explains that email addresses are owned by companies and serve as the root identity and authentication unit, with professionals spending 3 billion hours daily on email. Voice features like Right With Voice on mobile now drive 30% of usage gains, and the 'Sent via Superhuman' signature still generates 20% of site traffic. The acquisition story reveals that Grammarly independently chose the Superhuman name via a branding agency, leading to the rare rebrand of the acquirer. Superhuman Group operates as a multi-product bundle ($15/$30 per month) spanning email, documents (Coder), writing agents (Grammarly), and proactive AI (Superhuman Go), with priorities on M&A to fill missing categories like chat. Vohra also angel-invests via Todd and Rahul Capital, backing companies like Loyal (which received FDA efficacy approval for a dog lifespan drug) and…

Lindsay Kaplan, co-founder of Chief, explains how she and her co-founder Caroline built the women's executive network from cold emails that landed the first 200 members to a unicorn with tens of thousands on the waitlist. She details pivoting from in-person to digital in days during COVID, launching physical spaces, and the art of co-founder dynamics—emphasizing disagreement and complementary skills. Kaplan describes stepping down as operator after seven years, moving to VC at Next Wave NYC, and why she backs founders at the intersection of AI and real-world community, arguing that AI is a tool that cannot replicate in-person connection.
