POAP 7453396 for SPS Women in Tech Q3 2025 Lunch & Learn.

The image for this POAP was created via GPT-5 with the prompt:

I would like you to generate an image for a circular POAP badge with a vibrant teal-to-orange gradient background. At the center is the Women in Tech (WiT) logo — a clean, minimal flat-style laptop with coffee and charts inside, outlined in white. Radiating outward are subtle glowing neural network dots and arcs, minimal and elegant, giving an AI-inspired futuristic vibe. At the bottom-right inside the circle is a small playful line-art outline portrait of Jamie Thingelstad, wearing a hat with a bird perched on it, drawn in the same minimal outlined style as the WiT logo. Inside the circle edges, curved text: on top “WiT Q3 Lunch & Learn”, on bottom “How AI is Transforming Product Creation”. A small ribbon banner under the logo reads “Jamie Thingelstad · Sept 18, 2025”. Fun, playful, but clean and polished, with all elements fully contained within the circle for cropping.

I upgraded to ChatGPT Pro a couple months ago and it has been amazing. Now I upgraded to Claude Max as well, mostly because Claude Code is that useful. I use both for research, ChatGPT is way better for images and creative. Claude for building projects and executing things. Incredible stuff. 👨‍💻

A brand new AI startup with great pedigree and a $12 billion valuation.

Thinking Machines Lab, a buzzy AI startup founded by Mira Murati, raised $2bn in new capital, valuing the firm at $12bn. Ms Murati has recruited an impressive roster of researchers from OpenAI, where she was previously chief technology officer. That helped to persuade Nvidia and AMD, two giant chipmakers, to invest, even though the firm currently lacks much of a strategy (or revenue). — Economist, World in Brief, July 16, 2025

These numbers make the “dot com” bubble look like nothing.
