Quick experiment…

we're actually still early

Introducing Luma, a new shadcn/ui style. Rounded geometry. Soft elevation. Breathable layouts. Inspired by macOS Tahoe (minus the glass). Foundation. For your next app.

Computer use is now in Claude Code. Claude can open your apps, click through your UI, and test what it built, right from the CLI. Now in research preview on Pro and Max plans.

My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces): I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept): Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow

Hit me with the harshest reality truth.

Exactly 12 months ago, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei made what sounded like an outlandish prediction: that in 12 months, AI would be writing essentially all of the code. It turned out to be one of the most strikingly correct predictions in the age of AI. Exact quote: “If I look at coding, programming, which is one area where AI is making the most progress, what we are finding is we are not far from the world—I think we’ll be there in three to six months—where AI is writing 90 percent of the code. And then in twelve months, we may be in a world where AI is writing essentially all of the code. But the programmer still needs to specify... what is the overall app you’re trying to make, what’s the overall design decision?”

Let me explain what I mean using your chess analogy... Imagine a world where chess doesn't exist. In this world, humanity encounters an alien species, and they say "let's play a game of Glurg, it's our traditional pastime. Here are the rules, see you tomorrow" -- and it's the rules of chess. My claim is that following this interaction, a working group of the world's best minds, leveraging current externalized cognitive infrastructure (computers, the internet, etc.) would be able to analyze the rules and develop a working 3000 Elo chess engine within 24 hours, in time for the match. Give them an extra 3 weeks and they'd have a 3500 Elo engine that's 10x more compute efficient. So human intelligence is already at a level where we can go from "here are the rules" to "I can play at 3000 Elo" immediately. Not optimal yet, but not too far off.
