I enjoy their stuff. Maybe you will too. To get in touch with me for whatever reason, go to lexfreeman.com contact. All right, let's go. This episode is brought to you by a new sponsor, an incredible community called Hampton. It's a private, highly vetted community for high growth founders and CEOs. It is lonely to be a leader.
Every CEO I know, every founder I know, especially in the early days, are truly on an emotional rollercoaster. So Hampton provides a great community for the founders to meet. Every month, eight founders, face-to-face, having real conversations about daily struggles entailed in being a founder and entailed in being human, quite frankly. Groups are forming in New York City, Austin, San Francisco, LA, Miami, Denver, and other top cities nationwide. I'm going to be more and more part of this community because there's very few things that will make me happier than building a company that does something useful in this big world of ours. If you're a founder who's tired of carrying it all alone, visit joinhampton.com to see if it's a fit for you.
That's joinhampton.com. This episode is brought to you by Notion, a note-taking and team collaboration tool that is super-powered by AI. It integrates AI into the note-taking process better than basically anything I've tried, and that's certainly true in the case of teams. So it's doing things like collecting all the information from the meeting you just had, it captures everything, can make it searchable, summarized, there's transcriptions, All of that. And it's all automatically saved in Notion. And they do search across multiple apps. So across the whole Microsoft ecosystem, Google, Gmail Drive, everything. And by the way, they integrate many of the latest language models. Claude, GPT. If you want to try a piece of software, they integrate AI extremely well.
Like I've said many times, it's not just about the intelligence of the model. It's about the integration of that model into a system, into an interface that actually allows you to maximally leverage that intelligence for a particular set of tasks. Try Notion AI for free when you go to notion.com slash lex. That's all lowercase, notion.com slash lex to try the power of Notion AI today. This episode is brought to you by Shopify, a platform designed for anyone to sell anywhere with a great looking online store. I have a store on there, lexfreeman.com slash store. I'm probably going to be doing an episode on the Silk Road, history of the Silk Road, the actual Silk Road, not the modern day digital kind.
Any history that gives us an inkling of the transformation between the very early humans to the more modern, advanced technology humans. Any of that. Silk Road is one of those technologies that gives you a glimpse what was like in the tribal life before and what was it like in a fully integrated network of cities after. into the transformational periods of human history.
