I get to see a lot of product roadmaps from our portfolio companies & from the many startups we see each week. I often I have to remind founders to focus on their product vision and not be distracted. You have to be a "Roadmap Warrior". youtube.com/watch?v=l9DluI…

"The Right To Read" is a short story that might predict what happens if we over correct to protect data being used to train AI. I created a short animated film based on Richard Stallman's short story. Enjoy.
