@ericosiu My bad before was Do you have side projects? Now it’s Do you shop production features (as a non-engineer)?

Yes, you can only afford to hire people who use AI but we must define what that means. - Unacceptable: "I love using ChatGPT." - Capable: someone who is using Claude Cowork or Claude Skills. - Adaptive: someone who is using Claude code - Transformative: someone who is building end-to-end workflows (perhaps using one of the Claws) If you fail to define this clearly, you will end up hiring bozos.

Jensen Huang just told every college student on Earth the one thing that determines whether they get hired. It is not their GPA. It is not their degree. It is not their internship. Huang: “If I have a choice between two, I would hire the one who’s expert in using AI.” He did not say prefer. He said hire. One gets the job. One does not. The only variable is whether you learned to use the machine. Then he went down the list. Accountant. Hire the one who uses AI. Lawyer. Hire the one who uses AI. Marketing. Supply chain. Sales. Customer service. Every function. Same answer. The person who can command the model does not have an edge. They are the only candidate in the room. Everyone else is applying for a job that no longer exists. Huang: “If you’re a carpenter, if you’re an electrician, go use AI. If I were a farmer, I would absolutely use AI.” That line should demolish every assumption about who this technology is for. This is not a Silicon Valley tool for software engineers. This is infrastructure for anyone who builds anything with their hands or their head. A farmer who uses AI to optimize soil, predict weather, and manage yields is not competing with other farmers. They are operating at a level that used to take an entire department. An electrician who uses AI to model loads, simulate wiring, and quote jobs in seconds does not compete with other electricians. They compete with firms. One person with the model replaces the output of a team without it. That is not a prediction. That is Tuesday. Huang: “Every college student should graduate and be an expert in AI.” Not familiar with it. Not aware of it. Expert. The university system is still training students to execute the work. The market already moved. It wants the person who directs the machine that executes it. Four years of tuition. Thousands of hours of lectures. And if you walk out the door without mastering the one tool that redefines every industry you could enter, you burned all of it. Huang: “I want to see what it could do to elevate my job, so that I could be the innovator to revolutionize this industry myself.” That is the part most people miss. AI does not replace ambition. It multiplies it. The carpenter who learns the model does not lose their craft. They scale it. The pharmacist who learns the model does not become redundant. They become dangerous. One person. Deep skill. Full command of the machine. That used to be called a company. The question is no longer what do you know. It is what can you build with the machine that knows everything. And the people who cannot answer that are not falling behind. They already fell.

Just closed our $2m seed round. We're building an agent for a very specific consumer pain point. Once we scale to more states, I'll share more. I'd like to thank our investors for putting their chips on us!

Something magical happened a few days ago. I was sitting alone in a small izakaya (a Japanese pub, basically) with just the chef. We know each other, but he speaks Japanese and I speak English. Our conversations have always been limited to gestures, smiles, and pointing at menu items. So I pulled out OpenAI’s voice mode to try live translation. It launched a couple years ago but never really worked well enough to trust. This time, it clicked. We talked for 30 minutes. Real conversation. Not tourist phrases or one-word answers. Detailed, flowing, back-and-forth dialogue about life, food, whatever came up. The AI sat between us like an invisible interpreter, and for the first time we actually understood each other. It was one of the most beautiful tech experiences I’ve had in years. But it broke. Two ways. First, after about 20 or 30 minutes, the AI starts losing the thread. It gets confused about who’s talking and begins responding as if we’re speaking to it instead of through it. The translator becomes a participant, which kills the whole thing. Second, you hit the context limit. Even on Pro mode, the conversation just runs out of runway. The model can’t hold that much back-and-forth, and it stops working. I tried Gemini, Claude, and a few others. None of them even have a live translation prompt that functions at this level. OpenAI is the only one in the room right now, and even they can’t sustain it past half an hour. Here’s what stuck with me, though. For those 30 minutes, a language barrier that’s existed my entire relationship with this person just evaporated. That’s the product. Someone just needs to make it last.

Zuckerberg lit $80 billion on fire building the metaverse. Then quietly shelved it when the market said no thanks. And somehow, while he was doing that, Meta got bigger. Revenue up. Profits up. Stock price up. Every meaningful metric climbed while he was pouring tens of billions into a bet that didn’t land. The guy burned more money on a single failed bet than most companies will ever generate, and his business got stronger during the process. That’s not luck. That’s an operator running at a level most people can’t even pattern-match against. You can disagree with the metaverse. But confusing a bad bet with a bad entrepreneur is the real mistake. Zuckerberg is one of maybe 5 founders in our lifetime who’ve built something at true global scale and kept compounding it for 20 years. Your bias isn’t that you think he was wrong about VR. It’s that you think being wrong once makes him less than extraordinary.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Stop wasting your energy on the haterade and go build something.

This is a the future "Littlebird is a desktop app that remembers everything you’ve been working on – meetings, messages, docs, browsing - and helps you stay focused, prioritize, recall, and move projects forward. It uses screen reading to understand all the text on screen, for all applications, and uses that context to build a rich understanding of your life: who matters to you, what you're working on, and what you care about this week and this year."

First, fuck off. Ok, now we’re locked in, I sincerely wish you all the best. The world is brutal. Uncaring, wanting its own at your expense and indifferent to your losses. Leaving no safe haven for reprieve and rejuvenation. Yet the want to interdigitate and be fiercely loyal to each other persists beneath the wreckage. It’s how we are built and what we are built for. Society has strip-mined our togetherness by chopping up our bonds with endless insult. We do best with shared purpose and a common enemy. We are the stewards of intelligent life. Our moral duty is to tend its continuation. Not as martyrs, but as stalwarts. Our enemy is that which makes you smaller. Count me as your ally.

Claude Desktop is the macOS/Windows app (download at claude.com/download). - Claude Cowork: Non-technical mode inside the app. Automates file tasks, workflows, and apps like Excel/Slack without code. - Claude Code Desktop: Dev mode for coding, building, debugging in terminal/VS Code etc. "This" = brand-new Computer Use feature (released today for macOS). Claude controls your mouse/keyboard/screen to use *any* app. Works with both Cowork & Code. Super exciting for automation!

This will work with both Claude Cowork and Claude Code Desktop. You can ask Claude to click all the buttons in a legacy app that you'd like to automate - or use it to help debug a native app you're working on. It's slow but giving Claude my mouse & keyboard is *so* exciting to me.

Today, we’re releasing a feature that allows Claude to control your computer: Mouse, keyboard, and screen, giving it the ability to use any app. I believe this is especially useful if used with Dispatch, which allows you to remotely control Claude on your computer while you’re away.

The rule should be simple, those who spend more time on X, posting, replying, engaging, interacting should get more visibility than those who post a few times a day. This is social media, not a newsletter site. I understand the spam, bots and farming but that shouldn't be hard to detect. We shouldn't be limited because we spend too much time on the app, using it as intended. I don't care too much for AI videos or investigating Somali Learning Centers but maybe my thousands of friends want to see my shit-posts, trolling and memes too. Going viral used to be generic now it feels like being chosen.

Tomorrow I’m doing the world’s most powerful entheogen. It obliterates the self and enables raw, full-spectrum consciousnesses. What I imagine the singularity will feel like. This is a longevity experiment + exploring the future of a deeply interwoven human+AI reality.

I got robbed by .@kalshi and ex-@cluely team for $100k Here's exactly what happened with receipts I ended up doing marketing for them via .@instinct_inc and the goal was simple: Post content on faceless pages, get paid per view at the agreed RPM. Listen to the guidelines and create the content So I went to work and delivered over 180 million views (majority coming from very viral videos) At the agreed rate of the campaign, that's over $100,000 owed Then the ghosting started .@elamri wouldn’t respond to my DMS for days after i told him about the payout Then suddenly mass rejections start coming through Videos that had been live for weeks generating millions of views, content that was performing exactly as intended, all rejected The reason (according to the kalshi marketing team): “We don’t approve gooner content” What were they referring to though? My video of one of the top 20 sportswomen in the world was deemed as “NSFW” by them and therefore not approved DESPITE the video having 5M+ views and directly promoting them I have 20+ screenshots of conversations of them trying to explain why and Dris refusing to pay me Dris’ own words: "they ideally just want sports content / memes (which was later direction)" Read that again. "LATER DIRECTION" ASIDE from not paying me for my content and calling it “gooner content” They're literally admitting the direction came after I'd already delivered After the views were already counted. After they realized how much they'd owe me Videos with female athletes apparently don't count as sports to them I asked Dris directly "so by this logic female sports doesn't exist?" His response: “tried mentioning this earlier will try to see if sent" It's been 4 weeks of ghosting now I’ve not been paid anything after generating 200M views I've tried handling this privately but it’s genuinely getting to a point Everyone I mentioned is at fault here because I've been ignored, ghosted, and had 100 excuses made on why I couldn't get paid To the Instinct and the Kalshi team: you know what you owe. It’s VERY scummy of you to think you can get away not paying marketers what you owe them Will never be doing business with these guys again

Spoke to a CRO of a hot Series B startup yesterday: “We don’t have the knowledge internally to implement AI and agents into our process.” Toast. You are toast. That is unacceptable. Everyone can learn. There is zero excuse for the above.
