Bearly AI

FYI. If you’ve been using agentic AI coding agents, try OpenADE (our free open-source AI coding tool for easy collaboration and commenting in teams). Now with faster diffs and updated GPT-5.5 / Codex integration (also works with Claude Code). github.com/bearlyai/opena…

this is undoubtedly the only practical use case in the touchbar’s history reddit.com/r/vibecoding/s…

Some genius created a Codex and Claude Code tracker on the MacBook touch bar.

In hindsight, Jensen breaking out the Pulp Fiction dance at the Taipei COMPUTEX makes a lot of sense. Nvidia founded in 1993 and Pulp Fiction came out in 1994.

[NEW] The Bearly AI research app had added Claude Opus 4.8. Users can find it in the model picker. Check it out along with latest models from ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini and DeepSeek.All in one easy-to-use interface.

Waymo is rolling out a new autonomous EV minivan (Ojai). The current fleet costs $200k per vehicle to adapt a Jaguar I-PACE. Ojai is purpose-built with Chinese EV firm Zeekr and each vehicle costs at least half as much ($75k-$100k), even after tariffs. Despite having 42% fewer sensors on Ojai (13 cameras/4 Lidars) vs. Jaguar I-PACE (29 cameras/5 Lidars), Ojai performs better because it’s designed from ground up. Ojai also more mass-manufacturer friendly (read: cheaper parts) compared to more luxury Jaguar. Waymo plans to have 1,000 Ojai on roads by year end (100 out right now testing in LA, SF and Phoenix). *** More from CNBC: youtu.be/RQaW3iMue3M?si…

Conan delicately handling the AI issue at his Harvard commencement speech: “AI is not a problem at Harvard. Here, professors have been able to flag the use of AI using the sophisticated AI software they use to grade papers…despite your fears, AI can not replace you. It is too busy replacing the creeps from Princeton.”

Thanks to everyone giving OpenADE a spin. We recently updated our agentic free open-source AI coding tool for easy collaboration and commenting in teams using Codex or Claude Code. Try here and please share feedback: github.com/bearlyai/opena…

Dell’s AI server business only launched in 2023 and sales just passed the legacy PC-focussed Client Solutions Group. AI servers will do $60B in fiscal 2026 (vs. $25B last year).

Legal giant Kirkland & Ellis will spend $500m to build an AI platform instead of using Harvey or Legora. There are 180 tech employees working on it, designed with proprietary info from “250 Kirkland lawyers, including 100 partners, about how they did their job.” Kirkland sales hit $10.6B last year and this will be a significant investment (unlike some other law firms building similar AI tools in-house, Kirkland will keep the platform for internal use and not resell the AI tools).

Simon Willison makes the case that OpenAI and Anthropic have fully found product-market fit with enterprise agents/coding. A key stat: 33% of OpenAI and 26% of Anthropic open job listings are enterprise sales and support type roles.

still wild that Alphabet’s self-driving project is called Waymo instead of Google Drive

Micron and SK Hynix both joined the $1T club in the past 24 hours

J.R. Simplot had the craziest career pivot ever.  Born in 1909, he made billions with Idaho potatoes (1/2 of McDonald's fries) then helped build the now $1T Micron Technology in 1980 (a peak stake of 40%).  > Leaves home at 14 years old > His mom gives him $80 > Takes the money and buys interest-bearing paper ("scrip") at 50% of face value from local Idaho teachers who need cash > Borrows $600 from the bank using scrip as collateral  > Buys 600 pigs  > Finds a new way to make pig slop (boil potato scraps and horse meat) that make his pigs fatter than other farms and earns $7,000 in 1923 > Never graduates high school and goes full potato entrepreneur > Pioneers potato-farming technology including automatic sorters in 30s (makes his first million), dehydrators in 40s (adapts onion dehydrating tech for potatoes and feeds US army in WWII) and freezing in 60s (develops new method and provides Ray Croc with 1/2 of his frozen french fry needs for McDonald's in mid-1960s) Makes his first billion with McDonald’s and drives around Boise with a license plate that reads "SPUD" (incredible). Then pivots: > In 1980, he's approached to fund Micron Technology, which wants to build a DRAM memory chip fab in Boise > Simplot know nothing about computers but realizes that DRAM -- due to Japanese competition -- has become a commodity market that requires massive capital investments with razor-thin margins...just like potatoes  > Invests $1m for 40% of Micron and spends millions more building a fab > The only way to win = “become the lowest-cost producer of the highest-quality product” > Micron capitalizes on Idaho's cheap energy/land and innovates manufacturing techniques to efficiently produce chips at scale  > Japan tariffs Simplot's potatoes so he lobbies the Reagan Administration to tariff Japanese semiconductors (in 1986, they apply a 100% tariff on $300m of Japanese chips) > By mid-1990s, the three largest players in DRAM are Micron Technology, SK Hynix and Samsung (South Korean firms entered market after Japanese firms exited) > Simplot owns ~20% of Micron and becomes a semiconductor billionaire  > He's asked about PCs during the Windows 95 launch but turns out he's never owned a computer and says "Hell, boy, I came before the goddamn typewriter.” Today, Micron Technology is a $1 trillion firm and one of Boise's largest employers (Micron, SK Hynix and Samsung still own >90%of the memory market). Simplot passes away in 2008. Lived almost a century going from potato chips to semiconductor chips. Unreal.

Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra has a legendary LinkedIn page: > co-invents tech for NAND flash memory > co-founds SanDisk and runs for 28 years > sells SanDisk to Western Digital for $19B in 2016 > becomes Micron CEO in 2017 and market cap grown >33x from $30 billion to $1 trillion
