@CryptoMichNL You idiot

Absolute insanity people think that Trump will destroy an entire nation. He's playing chess.

@mattpocockuk Thank you for the grill-me skill. Brilliant. On the code base point: do you have a view on compound engineering? “The core philosophy of compound engineering is that each unit of engineering work should make subsequent units easier—not harder.” every.to/guides/compoun…

It's not just part of the prompt It's the MOST IMPORTANT PART

For weeks, folks have been asking me to make a video building a feature with Claude Code in a real codebase So here you go: - From idea to AFK agent to QA - Every single step explained - No slop allowed

@emollick I’m an idiot but I thought Codex ran 5.4?

GPT-5.4 Pro continues to be the only model of its class. For anything really hard & complex, I throw it into the maw with every bit of context I can think of. More often than not, something very useful comes out. I can't get the same results from Codex or Code or anything else.

@steipete @OpenAI @openclaw So, the vision is: Humans’ economic value is limited to our ability to carry out the physical tasks that Ai can not (currently) do? Cognitive economic value is hoarded centrally. Cognitive labour is carried out by Ai and people are just hired & fired by Ai. This is good…?

I'm joining @OpenAI to bring agents to everyone. @OpenClaw is becoming a foundation: open, independent, and just getting started.🦞 steipete.me/posts/2026/ope…

Peter Steinberger is joining OpenAI to drive the next generation of personal agents. He is a genius with a lot of amazing ideas about the future of very smart agents interacting with each other to do very useful things for people. We expect this will quickly become core to our product offerings. OpenClaw will live in a foundation as an open source project that OpenAI will continue to support. The future is going to be extremely multi-agent and it's important to us to support open source as part of that.

@johnrushx But if anyone can create those agents why would they pay for one someone else has built?

@SponContinental People won’t pay for traditional software tools, but they will pay 10x for ai agents

Independent Founders will eat Software Corporations. I'll convince you in 15 sentences. 1) Pre-internet media, music, news & content was costly, and consumers paid for it. 2) The internet made content creation and distribution cheap. 3) Free user-generated content disrupted traditional businesses. 4) Software creation is expensive. 5) Developers are costly because they translate English to JavaScript. 6) LLMs are lowering the process of writing code to almost zero eventually. 7) Lower costs will lead to exponential growth in the number of new software solutions. 8) Traditional software companies will be replaced by independent founders (just like it happened in journalists. e.g., Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, MrBeast, or Lex Fridmad). 9) These founders will be “distributors” first. Their key talent will be distribution and winning attention. 10) We can already see how Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, MrBeast, and Lex Friedman have stronger distribution than multi-billion corporations. It looks surreal, but it’s facts. 11) AI will change software like the internet changed media. 12) Successful founders of the future won’t be technical-first, just like the new gen of music artists didn’t study music for a decade as their predecessors. 13) The most scarce skill for the new gen is story-telling. 14) MrBeast has walked this path, and now, most top video content creators aren't corporations but indie video creators (see the screenshot). 15) I bet my life on this prediction by building tools for independent software founders to build, grow, and monetize their businesses.

@milesdeutscher The grifting just never stops eh?

Vibe coding levels The quicker you get to level 5, the richer you’ll become. Level 0: Ask ChatGPT questions Level 1: Vibe code small tools for your daily life (on Claude) Level 2: Hire VAs to delegate implementation Level 3: Systemise (SOPs + templates + checklists + ship every week) Level 4: Hire AI devs to scale + optimize Level 5: Add distribution (audience via personal brand/ads/network/sales) and you’re unstoppable

@mntruell If cursor can enable me to switch between super easy thinking space and dive in and out of complexity easily, I’d have no need for ChatGPT any longer. That would be good for me (as a non dev vibe coder who’s learning the ropes) Cursor is awesome though 🙌

@mntruell I use chat gpt and cursor together. I switch to chatgpt for a relief for my eyes and brain to step away from the cursor ui to allow myself to think and talk ideas through more easily. There’s no real need for me to do that other than the high cognitive load cursor ui creates.

Cursor seeks to be the best and most powerful way to code with AI. What are the ways in which we could be better?

@George_Osborne Oh dear

Hi, some personal news - I’m changing job. I recently asked myself the question: what’s the most exciting and promising company in the world right now? The answer I believe is OpenAI. So it’s a privilege to be going to work for OpenAI as managing director and head of OpenAI for countries, based here in London. In my conversations with Sam Altman, Brad Lightcap, and other senior colleagues, it’s clear they are exceptionally impressive leaders and that they care very deeply about their mission to ensure the power of artificial intelligence is developed responsibly, and the benefits are felt by all. That’s exactly what the OpenAI for Countries initiative intends to achieve, helping societies around the world share the opportunity this powerful technology brings. Am honorored to join the team.

@leerob How can vibe coding help with #1 and beginners who actually want to learn? Biggest issue for me is what to focus on? What do i *need* to learn now in order to build? I have a product I’m vibe coding and have created detailed requirements and designs and am making some progress.

My biggest worries about coding with AI: 1. Beginners not actually learning 2. Atrophy of skills I’m seeing #1 happen and I don’t have a good answer yet. Leveling up as an engineer requires grinding and it’s not always fun. If AI can solve most of the problems for you, when do you lean into the healthy friction? When do you embrace the suck? Coupled with fewer opportunities for pair programming, it’s definitely tougher for those starting their engineering career. It’s not all bleak though. Those with high agency are figuring it out and learning extremely fast. I just worry about the industry as a whole outside these folks. We need better products and better education. I’m hoping to try and do my part here. For #2, I’m definitely paranoid about this for myself. What will it feel like to build software in 5 years? Will I have forgotten someone of the skills I used to rely on? Maybe that won’t even matter because we will truly be operating at a higher level of abstraction. Even if that pans out, it’s always been important to deeply understand the systems/dependencies you’re building on. I normally talk about the stuff I’m optimistic for but think it’s good to have a healthy skepticism here.

@leerob How should I approach Test driven development in cursor

Ask me anything about coding with AI or Cursor!

@RoryStewartUK How many UK jobs will OpenAI take? Or Deepseek for that matter? How is society going to manage mass unemployment? Asking as someone who is now struggling to find employment in UK tech industry due to disruptive effects of AI.

18 months ago people were complaining that AI was not quite at undergraduate level in Maths, nine months ago that it was not quite at a PHD level - we are now seeing it an advanced post-graduate level…. (And people are reassuring themselves that is not yet at a Nobel level)

@auchenberg @simonw ChatGPT used to frequently switch to Welsh for me. There’s isn’t a cutting edge Welsh model that I’m aware of though 😁

Smoking gun: Pretty sure Cursor’s new Composer-1 is a fine-tuned Chinese model. As I was building, it switched its inner monologue to Chinese, and I can't get it back to english. @simonw

@GullisJonathan @10DowningStreet How’s the job hunt going? 😊

@10DowningStreet It is a parent’s responsibility to feed their children, and should never be referred to as “out of pocket” burden. Also nothing the government gives/provides is “free”. It’s been paid for by the British taxpayer.

Parents shouldn’t be out of pocket by setting their children up for school. That’s why we are rolling out free breakfast clubs and from next September, schools will be required to limit branded items of uniform. Saving families £500 and giving kids the best start in life.
