Notes on the NoPriors interview with DoorDash's two co-founders — a natural-language ordering surface that half the time sends people to a merchant they have never used, a delivery robot built to a use case rather than to a capability, and an internal benchmark built to work out what a 20× rise in model spend actually bought.
DoorDash's argument for why they had to build their own robot — the field builds a capability and then hunts for a problem — plus the edge cases nobody writes down at a desk, and the one incumbent data advantage in the interview that is actually load-bearing.
