This is an unexpected, strategically brilliant, obvious-in-hindsight move that might just define the small matter of how the internet shapes up over the coming decades.
o3 makes me go "fuck, you're smart" at least once a day like in this case, where it created an acronym to help me name something on the fly
Embarrassingly late to the party but Wispr Flow is such a magical product. I'm 15 mins into using it and I know I can't go back.
Despite having intelligence on tap, building a good product is still so difficult.
I wish there was a way to prompt updates to ChatGPT project instructions the way we can with coding rules in an IDE. The ideal form-factor for AI chat power users is probably just an IDE where files are conversations instead of code.
Reading this book felt like a personal attack (in a good way) Highly recommend
There are so many subtle ways in which search products inside Google (yes, the irony!) are broken. For example, in the emoji picker inside Google docs, searching for "1" doesn't surface the 1⃣ emoji but searching for "one" does.
ChatGPT can be an unexpectedly good writer. Just not when you explicitly prompt it to optimize for good writing. Lesson in there?
If you don't believe AR wearables are the next major computing platform, you likely aren't using AI enough in your daily life.
21 seems to be the age limit for young people trying to remind everyone how young they are.
Something surreal about nation-states casually dropping missile trailers and hyping war threats on X dot com.
I think it’s fascinating that no software designer has become a household name or gained significant cultural recognition, despite the fact that we spend most of our waking hours interacting with software.
o3 on cursor (without max mode) now costs just a single request ($0.04) per query intelligence too cheap to meter 🔜
Squeezed a street photography session into an 8-hour Hong Kong layover.
Visiting SF after two years, and the only physical signs of AI changing the world are AI company billboards plastered across the city and the ubiquity of Waymos. Anyway, here for the next few weeks. HMU if you want to grab a coffee!
Spent the past week scuba diving and it was the most alive and present I’ve ever felt. Otherworldly experience, highly recommend.
The first two chapters of this book are must reads for anyone thinking about how AI changes search
This cafe in Thailand has 4.9 rating across 4K+ Google map reviews. Ingenious, really.
This video is a great illustration of why Google is still best positioned to build the best AI for search. Unfortunately for them, you need to be a companion as much as a great search tool to lead the general chatbot space, and Gemini has absolutely no distinctive personality yet.
I'd be super interested in knowing how the launch of the new Claude models affected o3 usage My coding usage has shifted almost entirely to Sonnet 4 in Cursor
I just discovered @snipd_app, which more or less does everything I thought an AI-powered podcast app should do Happy customer and I suggest trying it out Also, founder @KevinBenSmith has a great episode on the @latentspacepod, super clear and articulate vision for AI x audio content consumption
thewayofcode dot com is a glimpse into the short-medium term future of written content consumption
claude 4.0 is already goated in my books so much fun working with it!
Sonnet 4.0 is the most fun I've had coding with AI so far Instant hit
Sonnet 4.0 on Cursor passes the initial vibe check ✅
Thanks to Codex, today was the most code I've ever shipped in a single day And by some margin too
It's such an amazing time to be writing code and building products We literally have the biggest companies + most funded startups in the world competing to serve us with as much code as we want for as cheap as possible The quality and tooling is getting better every single day I feel grateful every single time I send a prompt and receive code that would've taken me hours otherwise This shouldn't be possible, yet it is AI is a genie that gives us not just three but unlimited wishes
Biggest takeaway from Google I/O is that it's time to get a Pixel
Using @v0 after months and the product has clearly improved by leaps and bounds
suno is such a magical product probably the most underrated ai product with a generous free tier
Society has normalized it but aviation is a miracle and we are super lucky to live in the genetation it exists Some pictures of planes taking off taken from my Mumbai terrace over the past week
The podcast listening experience sucks. Looking to fix it. DM me if you are a heavy podcast listener.
Something I learnt (and never consciously realized) is that our typing muscle memory is based on words, not individual letters. This why its faster to type stuff like our name and email and passwords. Without proper form, you might use different fingers for the same letters in different words! Correcting typing form is so hard because your brain essentially re-learns how to type every single word.
Growing up, I was always told that: - one shouldn't drink water right after a meal - it's better to drink water sitting down than standing up Turns out these are both bs You can drink water whenever and however you like to
After more than 20 years of using computers, I started teaching myself to type properly (touch typing) yesterday. It’s so fucking painful... Everything takes twice as long, and you feel almost disabled doing even the most trivial tasks. Short-term pain for long-term gain… or something like that.
With o3, you have an infinitely patient tutor with access to the latest knowledge from across the internet, ready to satisfy your most esoteric curiosities. There is simply no excuse not to learn anymore. No matter how much—or how little—you’re using it, it can always be more. Send that prompt, anon.
Just started using @RepoPrompt and realised I'd been LLM-coding with a blindfold on all this time
I asked o3 to analyze every major bilateral war over the past 100 years and then fed in the timeline of events from the indo-pak conflict. Here's its read on the situation and what happens next:
8AM to 4PM feels so much longer than 8PM to 4AM
Playing @matiks_play last night was the first time in many years where I spent more than an hour playing a mobile game Kudos to the team
Aixbts technical architecture is literally the least interesting thing about it It went to almost a billion because it was the first time an AI agent seamlessly integrated itself into a human community without being a nuisance Half of CT was tagging it in posts at one point It was a glimpse of the future
I will write a long post about this some day but iOS is genuinely horrible software Will switch back to pixel whenever I need a phone next since they seem to have solved their battery problems
I've owned a macbook pro for close to three months now and only today did I learn that I can also use usb-c to charge it :)
I owe you an apology @ChatGPTapp, I wasn't really familiar with your game
Whenever ChatGPT integrates MCP, the tasks feature will become 100x more valuable and a greenfield playground for developers
Three of the last five books I ordered from Amazon India were counterfeits Why is no one talking about this? It's a fundamental violation of reader, writer, and publisher trust
Cursor's per-tool-call pricing model for MAX models (Claude and Gemini) fundamentally misaligns their incentives with those of users. They’re incentivized to create system prompts that maximize tool calls instead of solving problems quickly and efficiently. The opposite is true (and much better for users) when using o3, where Cursor charges per query.
We're entering the era where software decouples from business and it's going to beautiful.
After the whole sycophancy debacle, I was wondering if OpenAI is already one of the most important companies in the world. I asked myself: would society be fundamentally disrupted if OpenAI were to abruptly shut shop overnight? The answer, of course, is that there would be some pain, but not enough (at least not yet) for society to come at a standstill. Then, I started wondering: which company is actually the most important in the world? Which are the ones truly indispensable to how society functions today? Here how o3 ranks the top 10 companies by market cap:
Friend after AR Rahman's concert last night: "It’s crazy the amount of hit songs he has, he could play another three hour set with all different songs bc" One of the best to ever do it
Vibe coding principle: slow is smooth, smooth is fast
What is it about movement that gets your brain juices flowing? Like many others, I do my best thinking when I’m walking or driving or standing under a shower (where water moves past you, as opposed to the stillness of a bath) Are there any evolutionary reasons for this being the case?
Found a wonderful collection of minimalistic websites deadsimplesites dot com
Everyone should have a personal website.
I've spent the day going down some internet rabbit holes and realised just how many cool and smart people are no longer active on this platform.
I randomly stumbled upon a Google easter egg! Searching for "geocities" renders the page in Comic Sans
With most communication with AI being text based, I think there are three non-obvious ways to supercharge productivity: - master keyboard shortcuts - make using a clipboard manager second nature - learn to type faster I've always struggled with 3 but am pretty good at 1 and 2 Might just release guides!
I've been working on a project with ChatGPT and Cursor and many of the technologies I'm using are new to me. After one week of progress, I wanted to assess my speed. So I shared the codebase with o3 and asked how long a solo dev would take to get to where I'm at. It estimates that a 10x dev would take at least 2 weeks, twice the time a noob like me took. We live in truly insane times. (Yes, I understand the codebase fully)
I love what Google have done with Gemini 2.5 pro's chain-of-thought Super readable and useful!
With Apple sleeping on the AI wheel, Google has a generational opportunity to capture smartphone marketshare.
I don't usually read self-help books. Nor do I usually share books I'm reading on Twitter. But three chapters into this one, I had to make an exception.
It's wild how AI is going to alter the trajectory of our species and yet the only emoji we have to represent it is 🤖
I was setting up a monorepo with a Next.js app and a TypeScript worker, Docker containers, GitHub Actions for CI, and for CD. I'd never done this before but figured frontier LLMs (o3, Grok 3, Claude 3.7, Gemini 2.5 Pro) would get me there in a few hours. Instead, it took the entire weekend. We're nowhere near AGI.
It's crazy how superior OpenAI is when it comes to product. Not only does everything just work, but they also set the standard that the rest end up copying. The only exception that comes to mind is Deepseek's "Deepthink" button.
I asked o3 to create an abstract image based on its impressions of my personality
I've deliberately moved all my personal conversations back to ChatGPT from Claude. Memory works beautifully and has already started saving me time. Unreal moat.
There is a difference between "good ideas" and "good ideas meant for you to build"
It's becoming increasingly obvious that LLMs and Diffusion models, even in their current state, will fundamentally alter the fabric of the internet. The question then becomes what direction will the change take? Will they make the internet better or worse?
LLMs excel at generating roadmaps for technical projects but, ironically, their timelines fail to account for the existence of LLMs themselves. That MVP they estimate will take a month might in practice require less than a week. This makes me wonder in what other ways LLM answers are underestimating the impact of AI on the world.
Wtf? Insane value
I've been thinking about why OpenAI released this video, and realized it's mainly about recruiting. As someone who's not an ML researcher, unfamiliar with the technical frontier, I found the video fascinating. But if I were an ML researcher at the frontier, the many unresolved threads it leaves dangling would feel more agonizing than intriguing. Or, if I were a systems engineer, the opportunity to solve some of the scaling challenges—problems that no one has solved before—would get me tingling with excitement. Since competition limits publishing the amazing discoveries you're making openly, videos like this are the next best way to attract top talent.
Jury's out on whether models get commoditised at the developer level, but I think AI is going to be winner takes all (or close) at the individual product level. For example, till date, I used Claude for personal stuff and ChatGPT for work. But a feature like this makes every incremental conversation with ChatGPT more useful, locking me into its ecosystem. I'd rather have all my memories with one provider than scattered across multiple ones. Your move, @AnthropicAI!
Going to elaborate a bit here. I've been working on a crypto venture funding dashboard at @Decentralisedco. This afternoon, @joel_john95 asked me if we could do a visual matrix of how often the top investors co-invest together. Pre-LLMs, this workflow would have needed: 1. Writing a script to get the data from the database 2. Using a tool like Figma/Photoshop to create a decent-looking graphic But with Cursor having access to my database, I was able to create a good-looking graphic in just a single prompt, without being skilled at either database stuff or design. Then, Joel asked me to make minor changes like moving title and tweaking color. Each request was an additional prompt, and we got to exactly what we wanted in a few slack exchanges. More than half a day of work completed in less than 20 mins. Because modern web development frameworks are so flexible, and because LLMs are being trained to code them perfectly, almost any piece of content can now be created with code. Code is content.
Internalize: Code is content. Code is content. Code is content. Code is content. Code is content.
The X-S*bstack beef is such a sad and frustrating situation. X demotes SS links. SS doesn't show tweet embeds. SS posts don't replace X. X articles suck compared to SS. Creators and their readers end up as the biggest losers.
You'll start thinking about business very differently once you internalize that it all boils down to one concept: Consumer surplus.
I just spotted a captioned image in the middle of a Deep Research report. Super interesting. It uses an image from Wikipedia for now, but you can easily imagine 4o-generated images augmenting reports.
I would pay 3x for a mobile plan with zero spam calls/messages @airtelindia
Converted some pictures I clicked of @KhushiJangid9 to travel posters using 4o
The launch of a major AI model is the best time to find interesting new people to follow!
I asked Cursor to help me plan a relatively complex feature It estimated a timeline of 8+ days And then implemented it with ~30 mins of prompting
If building software is now 2x cheaper and faster, should that be reflected in incentive structures for pure software companies? For example, 4y vesting 1y cliff becomes 2y vesting 6m cliff?
I now have a list of writing excerpts that I found beautiful on my website
Mukesh Ambani is one of five external stakeholders in Thrive Capital (not LPs but direct owners of the firm). Thrive led OpenAI's $6.5bn round last year. I wouldn't be surprised if that relation led to this partnership in some way.
Bombay has a bunch of amazing new cafes but they all play blaring loud music that makes it impossible to read/work. Such a pity.
Seeing a bunch of non-crypto apps using Privy for auth. World class product that solves an acute pain point. Will only increase in relevance as the army of vibe coders grows.
Gemini Flash 2.0 via @OpenRouterAI is insane. It cost $7 to categorize 10,000+ companies for (based on scraped website homepage). 99%+ accuracy and super fast.
Late to the party but Grok voice mode is beautiful. Low latency and just the right amount of patience to tolerate silences and give thinking time. I had two great conversations today. One about a common raven I spotted on my rooftop and another on a personal decision I’ve been wrestling with. Going to be spending more time talking to AI!
I vibe coded a dashboard to track all things crypto venture funding at @DecentralisedCo! It's a great way for founders to identify active investors or for investors/researchers to track capital flows. Quick guide on how to use it:
Studying how a reasoning model transforms your ambiguous requests into concrete instructions is a great way to improve your own writing and thinking skills.
Apple TV shows have a pattern of banger season ones, and underwhelming, borderline unwatchable season twos. Ted Lasso, Silo, and now Severance. Hope Dark Matter doesn't suffer the same fate.
The key to effective vibe coding is understanding what every single file in your codebase does
A product that is “build for yourself” by definition
It’s crazy that the world’s best startups and entrepreneurs are currently competing to help you code faster.
I refuse to understand anyone technical-leaning not vibe coding right now
A single query in Claude Code cost me $9! Kinda crazy Makes you appreciate the value tools like Cursor are providing at $20/mo
We're in the era of software abundance I ran a t-shirt dropshipping business in college and a single mockup pack cost more than it takes to make unlimited mockups on this app Soon there will be software for anything and everything you can imagine And if something doesn't exist, you can simply make it yourself!
Gemini Flash 2.0 is an excellent model for basic language tasks like classification. Fast, cheap, accurate. Great value.
The next powerpoint will be built on top of a web development framework.
Tools like @raycastapp have the funny problem of being too powerful. A brilliant product but they have so much going on that its only useful for people who care about being 100% productive and excludes those that are ok with, say, some basic features and 50% productivity.
AI bots can make the social media experience exponentially better if tastefully executed
Clear zkTLS use case: competitor vampire attacks. I currently use Cursor for all my vibe coding. I've heard good things about Windsurf but the switching costs are simply too high. But what if Windsurf could offer a one month free trial for every user that has paid for Cursor for at least six months? Surely there are few better ways of spending marketing $$. The same can be extended to almost all digital product categories.
what I would give to be 17 again and start my CS degree in an LLM world
Designers are the biggest beneficiaries of vibe coding.
Prediction: @levelsio's flying game becomes an agario like phenomena and nets him at least a million dollars in 2025.
Excerpt from a 1999 New York Times Magazine article on @naval's first company, Epinions. Stood out to me because of the speed and unique nature of Epinions' launch + the brilliant writing. (Link in reply) ----------------------------------------------- What were you doing 12 weeks ago? Twelve weeks ago was Nirav Tolia's last day on a pretty enviable job. He is 27, and in addition to managing the marketing of Yahoo!'s E-commerce properties, he had represented the company on television more than 100 times. Almost nobody leaves Yahoo!, but Nirav Tolia had just heard a really interesting start-up idea from a friend, Naval Ravikant, who had recently left @Home. It took Tolia about one day to decide, and the following morning he resigned. Soon after Tolia's last day at Yahoo! he and Ravikant were joined by one of the highest ranking engineers at Netscape, Ramanathan Guha, who was cooking up an idea very similar to Ravikant's on the back burner of his big brain. By the end of the week, they were five strong. Eleven weeks ago, despite not having a single line of code written or even a paper sketch of the Web site they wanted to build, they got $8 million in seed financing from venture capitalists -- half from Benchmark Capital, which had financed Ebay, and half from August Capital, where Naval Ravikant was camping out as entrepreneur in residence. This gave the start-up what is believed to be one of the highest seed-round valuations ever. Nine weeks ago, they brought on Lou Montulli and Aleksander Totic, two of the original six founding engineers of Netscape. Eight weeks ago, they moved into a second-floor gabled loft in Mountain View, Calif., and began grinding out 15-hour days, seven days a week -- but of course these guys had done that before. In a spring when it had started to seem to some Silicon Valley veterans that all the big original ideas were gone, theirs was a lightning rod for talent. The new director of business development, Dion Lim, began to cut deals with other Web sites to import their data feeds. Seven weeks ago, they started hiring category managers. Six weeks ago, it became clear to Guha that enough of the original programming was already done, and he could switch hats from coder to manager. Five weeks ago, their venture capitalist from Benchmark, Bill Gurley, came by the office for his first look-see. He was blown away: ''This is, unequivocally, the fastest I have ever seen a start-up move.'' Four weeks ago, they began to cut distribution deals; two weeks ago, they settled on their marketing plan, and now, having reached a critical mass of 31 people, they are set to launch their Web site. In 12 weeks, the amount of time it might take an average person to decide what kind of hedge to plant in the backyard, they built a company from scratch. An instant company, or what is being called in Silicon Valley a ''second-generation Web company.'' Not so long ago, it seemed incredible that a Web company could be born in a mere two years. But rather than going back to normal, the pace of creation in Silicon Valley now seems to be speeding up even more. Any Web company that starts out today and takes two years to get up and running is likely to be left in the dust.
The best thing about the new Grok is that we no longer have to endure the monstrous xAI logo plastered across this website.
Ok yea Claude 3.7 might be AGI

Massively underrated productivity/motivation hack: spend an hour walking or working out while listening to the @FoundersPodcast
It's crazy that the pay-as-you-go-per-use business model is not more common on the internet. If I were to guess, has to do with the friction and fees of traditional payment platforms. Can we stop scamming people so that crypto can solve the problems it is uniquely enabled to??
Deep Research becomes 10x more useful with a detailed prompt Detailed prompts are very tough to write because we often don't know what we don't know Instead, generate a prompt using a reasoning model (o1/claude extended) with this prompt: Deep Research is a research agent system created by OpenAI. It can take a research question and search the web and provide a highly detailed answer. Please create a prompt for this system based on the topic below that is: - Well reasoned - Highly Detailed - Clearly structured - Achieves a precise goal Topic: <detailed dump of what you want to learn, why, aspects you want to be covered> (Not an original prompt. Shared by someone I can't recall.)
AI models are limited by our ability to: 1. ask good questions 2. in a correct, model-friendly way to extract maximum value The second opens up room for dedicated prompt generation tools/products
The Hawala system is an almost perfect infinite game. If you keep acting honestly, your business is certain to grow over time. But one lapse of judgement, and it’s game over.
Wrote some words on crypto-native AI agent frameworks
Grok's chain-of-thought is by far the most useful and best formatted out of all thinking models.
It's a battle between Perplexity and Replit for the most overhyped AI tool.
An underdiscussed implication of Grok 3 being trained on mainly math and coding problems is that xAI is not as exposed to copyright risk. Also, settles the synethetic data debate.
People are now building AI apps from within other AI apps. Chat, what timeline is this?
The world isn't ready for Cursor powered by Claude 3.5 Sonnet served on Grok.
Solana is dead? In that case, explain the dread I experience every time I have to approve a token.
The most important question over the next five years is going to be “what is creativity?”
Increasingly becoming obvious that infusing agents and chatbots with personality is as important as other aspects of the core tech.
Social media is super addictive today with just really good pattern recognition (ML). Imagine what happens once LLMs become cheap enough to understand every post and image at scale, and companies start using that intelligence to serve you content.
Study the X API pricing structure to get a glimpse of Elon’s genius.
GPT in the streets, Claude in the sheets
Consumer crypto is nothing but helping people make money on things they didn't think they could make money on.
Having crypto wallets pre-linked to social accounts is a massive unlock for consumer crypto.
Crazy to think about, but if Cursor goes down for a significant period, it will have a tangible impact on human productivity.
Amidst the sea of forced Grok integrations into X, they missed the most obvious one: helping edit tweets.
AI is gradually making the cost of education trend towards zero.
“The next zapier will live in the IDE”
Disappointing that the OpenSea founder tweets this and not a single reply with “CA” or “wen token” Do better degens
Another way to think about this is snatching away human agency of one kind and handing it back in a different, more valuable kind
Two kinds of businesses for the coming future - replacing humans by cheaper, faster, more reliable AI - building for the post-AI order where a few distinctly human experiences will be immeasurably valued The second is highly under explored
The flaw in this argument is that many SaaS companies have customers who are themselves technical, with the engineers directly being POCs. And builders would solve trivial problems themselves rather than pay someone for non customisable software.
The Super Bowl is intriguing because it’s meant to be a flagship sports event, yet the only thing discussed is what ad was shown or which performed or who did or did not get booed. I must have seen over 100 tweets about it on the timeline but still have no clue about which teams were even playing. Fascinating stuff.
You can gain a surprising amount of fundamental clarity on a technology by building basic tools with it by yourself. Want to understand blockchains better? Create your own simple smart contract. Want to understand AI? Build a simple RAG app. LLMs make the whole process easier.
The next Zapier will live inside the IDE
The $200 ChatGPT pro subscription is the biggest and most widely available arbitrage opportunity in human history.
Tech memes like “what did you get done this week” “you can just do things” “10x agency” Are so fucking powerful Best kind of memes tbh
Something changed in the air post R1 and Deep Research. The world isn't the same as it was a month ago. Can you feel the AGI?
Crime szn would reach whole new levels if Solana had a tornado cash equivalent
Why is Anthropic so allergic to making money? Don’t want to release your most powerful model for safety reasons? Fine, whatever. But what’s the excuse for not releasing a pro version for 10x the current subscription amount when there is clear demand for it?
In other words, if you don’t build a real on-chain business, you’re competing with memecoins. And that’s a battle you won’t win. Market’s getting efficient.
Been thinking about this chart a lot and most people are getting this wrong imo. Yes, Pump launching led to a deviation in the altcoin trends from past cycles but only because it exposed the fact that *most* alts are vaporware that traders hold only because they expect them to outperform BTC. There is no other reason to hold them. Memes give you a *chance* to outperform BTC in a much shorter time frame, without execution risk or VCs dumping on you. Hence the capital flight. Pump exposing this is good for crypto and makes the market more efficient.
Theoretical physicians were the original idea guys
In hindsight, it should’ve been obvious that this was going to be a rotatooor cycle once $GOAT was flipped
Yes, AI will kill SaaS. But most companies will die slow, painful deaths.
AI companies aren't building search engines That means that AI doesn't kill SEO, but makes it all the more important Where do you think the search results for most web-enabled AI products come from? Exception is companies like @ExaAILabs
Neuralink can't come fast enough
a writer is basically just a professional observer
I'd love to select specific text in Deep Research reports and discuss it (potentially using a faster model) while maintaining context of the full document. Would be great for follow-up questions or deeper explorations. @neelajj
Swarms is such a fancy word to use for if-else statements
ChatGPT, for some reason, refuses to recommend books
a month ago, I wrote about how no code app builders can benefit from crypto rails (link in replies) @devfunpump @buidldev is the perfect manifestation of that vision—without exaggeration the best product i've used in crypto x ai check them out $buidl
What started as a shower thought has turned into a website used by almost 70,000 people. Building has been such a rewarding experience! You can just do things.
Trumpcoin's true impact was breaking the seal on using crypto to convert social capital into financial capital. Makes me extremely bullish on @cloutdotme.
Two months ago, I wrote an 8k word article about scaling laws, GW data centres, big tech dominance, and how crypto companies are unlikely to compete in the race for AGI. Most of those arguments and predictions are essentially invalid now. In just two months.
The bear case for Nvidia isn't about declining GPU demand (which won’t slow down any time soon) but rather about their ability to maintain 70%+ profit margins on GPU sales.
Both the AI agent wave of the past three months, and the recent Deepseek drama in particular, has made me realise just how few people have original thoughts on this app. Each tweet is a prompt for your brain and the For You feed is cancer.
I have the best decimals. 🤣
One of my worst fears right now is the Indian government banning DeepSeek for being a Chinese product.
Great 0-1 read for anyone looking to understand the uproar around the Deepseek model Also doubles up as a rear Nvidia bear case argument
The first AI to run an org autonomously will start as a GitHub maintainer.
Currently asking Deepseek questions from the CAT 2024 paper (it's a competitive exam in India) And as part of its thinking, it concludes that the question could possibly be from JEE (a separate competitive exam in India) Quite perplexed tbh
ARM stock rallies after being announced as a "technology partner" in Stargate The partnership-to-pump-price playbook goes well beyond web3 lmao h/t @SemiAnalysis_
We're operating at the cutting edge of finance while being governed by century-old laws. Inevitably, there is going to be some crime on the charts.
Many of the EF's problems mirror that of Twitter pre-Musk: - moral superiority complex - employees who don't use their own product - ineffective leadership - a brilliant, messianic founder who's carried the organisation as far as possible Of course, it's far more complex for a decentralized protocol, the second biggest one no less, to undergo a Twitter-like transformation
Some folks here need to realise that the two statements: - Tokens are being launched by grifters - Whatever is happening is good for the long term future of the industry Can BOTH be true at the same time
A pattern I suspect will become increasingly common in an interop/acc world will be token launches and primary liquidity on Solana, even if the product's core functionalities lie elsewhere.
Just got access to @devfunpump this morning and it honestly might be one of the best products I've tried in crypto so far. Fits the no-code thesis we wrote a few weeks ago to a T.
Beyond just price, if you're building at or studying the intersection of web3 x AI, you're very well positioned for the future imv. I was at lunch with some old friends, and most of them have no clue that the President of the United States launched a memecoin or Solana, or that you can now access an entry-level analyst/software engineer 24/7 for $200 per month.
hey @s8n i want to make a deal. if i post a tweet with low engagement then please quote shame me do you accept?
Fun fact: if you fly east out of Kathmandu on a clear day, you can simply stare at Mt Everest for a good 20 mins.
Hot take: @pumpdotfun will go down as one of the most important products in the history of this industry, and by extension, that of finance.
If you still think of @aixbt_agent as an "alpha chatbot" who should be evaluated basis its "performance" and FUD it because it "contradicts itself." You're ngmi
I don’t think most people are prepared for how massive and important the intersection of open-source and crypto-economic incentives is going to be. Think beyond the price of your favourite AI framework.
Just realised that part of the reason @aixbt_agent captures so much mindshare is that it’s an almost perfect encapsulation of the CT echo chamber. Trained on CT, responds to CT, further trained on those tweets, and so on. Another way to think of this is that chatting with aixbt is like chatting with the collective CT consciousness.
Just to add to this, if you're evaluating/investing in AI agent frameworks, the worst person you can listen to is your favourite CT KOL. There's a non-zero chance they didn't even know what an agent was three months ago. At we're building tools for making objective, code-based evaluations. First release today.
I'm very excited by the upcoming @pippinlovesyou framework and super grateful to have builders like @yoheinakajima building at the intersection of Crypto and AI. Wrote some words on the demo shared last night:
The bull case for @ai16zdao Eliza has always been network effects, not the tech itself. If you're looking for the best tech, I doubt any web3 framework comes close to the web2 ones.
