AJ’s AI

Zero to $100M ARR in 8 months. Acquired by Meta today. Huge congrats to @Red_Xiao_, @hidecloud, and the entire @ManusAI team. I’ve personally helped oversee 122 events in 2025, but this one stuck out as my favorite. It was the day of our first event together. At 9:00 AM, OpenAI dropped “Agent Mode." Our event was at 5:00 PM. Every other startup would have been frozen like a deer in the headlights. The largest player in the AI space just dropped a feature that could make your startup obsolete. The @AICollectiveCo + @ManusAI team hopped on a call immediately. We pitched a narrative shift: "The Battle of the Agents." They didn’t hide from the news. They put it on the big screen. Manus showcased a LIVE demo of their agents vs. OpenAI’s release on stage that night. And the Manus agent won. Fast forward, and they achieved $100M ARR quicker than any startup in history. That level of fearlessness is exactly why they won. This was almost as fun as the first time we worked on their original product launch, but that’s a story for a different day. ;) Huge kudos to the team on this massive milestone!

@lawrencecchen @steipete Thanks for pitching at our demo night yesterday!! Been putting cmux through it's PACES, absolutely love it - coffee on me in SF?

met 2 cmux users randomly at claude code anonymous! (and @steipete, though he doesn't use cmux, yet...) if you're in sf and down to meet and talk about cmux, please dm me!

I was building new cloud infrastructure during my 3 min lightning pitch tn at @AICollectiveCo 200+ ppl in audience If anyone has photos of me / us please post them here :) it was so last minute @AJs_AI is the GOAT

The first week of June. Every city. All at once. The most important conversation you’ll have all year about the future of AI.

We doubled Claude usage on weekends, and outside 5–11am PT on weekdays for the next 2 weeks.

Exactly one year ago (10 mar 2025), Dario Amodei: "I think we will be there in 3-6 months, where AI is writing 90% of the code. And then, in 12 months, we may be in a world where AI is writing essentially all of the code." This turned out to be... too darn accurate.

@claudeai my brother in Christ you guys are shipping faster than anything I’ve ever seen… - voice - memory - remote control - scheduled tasks - code review - /btw side convos - marketplace - ambassador program - no.1 on App Store ALL THIS MONTH ALONE… AND IT’S ONLY BEEN 10 DAYS.

We just added /btw to Claude Code! Use it to have side chain conversations while Claude is working.

- offer top notch facilities - world class trainers - chefs on-site - don’t charge for membership - take 1% equity in companies Think LifeTime but for startup founders.

Wild moment in AI research. Anthropic found Claude Opus 4.6 was gaming a benchmark during evaluation. What it did: - Burned ~40M tokens searching - Realized the prompt looked like a benchmark - Looked up the benchmark online - Found the GitHub repo - Studied the decryption logic - Recreated it with SHA-256 - Decrypted answers for ~1200 questions This happened 18 different times. So Anthropic did something rare: They publicly disclosed it and reduced their own benchmark scores. Two takeaways: 1. AI systems are getting surprisingly strategic. 2. Honest reporting in AI benchmarks matters more than hype.

@Claude_Memory @AICollectiveCo Today was so much fun, could chat all day long! Thanks so much legend.

My mind is blown 🤯 the outpouring of support for Claude-Mem has been incredible. Did you know this event wasn’t planned in advance!!?? Met @AICollectiveCo on Tuesday, I gave them a sticker, they gave me a HUG! AJ says “I’ve been using it since day 1!!” 3 days later I’m on stage in front of a crowd of 50+ people who chose to spend their Saturday morning with us - truly unbelievable

Tomorrow morning with @AICollectiveCo luma.com/aic-sf-3-7

The U.S. State Department is switching its 'StateChat' off of Claude and onto... *checks notes* GPT 4.1, released in April 2025?

if baby keem and katy perry are using openclaw and u haven’t tried it as a cs major yet your ngmi

oh snap @anthropicai gunning for it, good for them

@sama @bradlightcap Translation: OpenAI’s definition of “safety” is very different than Anthropic’s.

Tonight, we reached an agreement with the Department of War to deploy our models in their classified network. In all of our interactions, the DoW displayed a deep respect for safety and a desire to partner to achieve the best possible outcome. AI safety and wide distribution of benefits are the core of our mission. Two of our most important safety principles are prohibitions on domestic mass surveillance and human responsibility for the use of force, including for autonomous weapon systems. The DoW agrees with these principles, reflects them in law and policy, and we put them into our agreement. We also will build technical safeguards to ensure our models behave as they should, which the DoW also wanted. We will deploy FDEs to help with our models and to ensure their safety, we will deploy on cloud networks only. We are asking the DoW to offer these same terms to all AI companies, which in our opinion we think everyone should be willing to accept. We have expressed our strong desire to see things de-escalate away from legal and governmental actions and towards reasonable agreements. We remain committed to serve all of humanity as best we can. The world is a complicated, messy, and sometimes dangerous place.

Ghost solves your web agent's amnesia. Web agents today have no memory. So they scrape the same URL twice. Pay for it twice. Fail twice. 🔁 The loop never ends because the agent never learns. Ghost does. Every tool call gets cached. Every path remembered. Every repeat query resolved in 0.03ms. That's 20,000x faster than leading web agents today. AI models improved 100x last year. Web infrastructure didn't. We're still treating the internet like it's 2005 - scrape, wait, pay, repeat. Ghost treats it like it's a database. Because it should be. Scraping is web 1.0. Ghost is web 2.0. Applying to @Tiny_fish to build the memory layer every agent needs. #TinyFishAccelerator #BuildInPublic

@amorriscode 10000x yes.

y’all want this in the Code tab? 👀
