I just want to remind everyone that we do actually all have to ride through takeoff together, all parties will remember how other parties treated them, and this is far from the last repetition of this game. (If I had to guess, this is like round 2 of ~30.)

I hope the power outage stuff doesn't slow Waymo's progress.

@adamdangelo You probably don’t understand the concept of pets! It is the warmth of life people crave.

I think robot pets are going to be a huge market.

@ben_golub Amazing caption on the photo: “Fewer people flew in the 1960s, which allowed airlines to use the extra space for lounges”. As if the causality goes from # of people flying total to how much space is designed into each plane.

This NYT article on the "golden age" of air travel is an amazing example of an unthinking journalist failing to make contact with reality. The narrative: air travel used to be much better, but less affordable. 1/

This is an early release guided by a vision we are working toward on Poe: the ability to combine models from all providers into easy-to-use experiences. We chose vibe coding as the medium for this because of its power and flexibility.
Poe@poe_platform

Introducing script bots, a new way to combine models and automate workflows on Poe. Script bots are created through vibe coding with Script Bot Creator and can combine any of the 200+ text, image, video, and audio models on Poe, plus any other bot on the platform. (1/9)

Amjad Masad and Adam D'Angelo debate whether the current LLM paradigm will get us to AGI: Amjad: “I don't think we're going to get to the next level of human civilization until we crack the true nature of intelligence.” Adam: “Nothing seems fundamentally so hard that it couldn't be solved by the smartest people in the world working incredibly hard for the next five years on it.” Amjad: “But basic research is different... Thomas Kuhn, this philosopher of science, talks a lot about how these research programs end up becoming like a bubble and sucking all the attention and ideas.” Adam: “ This is maybe our disagreement. I think the current paradigm is pretty good. And I think we're nowhere near the sort of diminishing returns of continuing to push on it... I would just bet that you can keep doing different innovations within the paradigm to get there.” @amasad @adamdangelo
a16z@a16z

Amjad Masad says we may have “functional AGI,” not true AGI: automation that works because humans supply the expertise. True AGI would learn new skills on the fly. For now, humans are still the teachers. @amasad

Enjoyed my conversation with @amasad and @eriktorenberg!

Underneath all the hype around AGI timelines and bubble predictions, agents are continuing to improve – fast. We’re starting to see hints of reliable computer use, and soon we’ll have agents that can massively boost solo entrepreneurship and automate big chunks of knowledge work. @Quora CEO Adam D’Angelo and @Replit CEO Amjad Masad sit down with Erik Torenberg to discuss the potential of AI progress over the next 5 years, the economic impacts of cheap AI labor, the societal impacts of broad solopreneurship, and whether there are glimmers of consciousness in today’s AIs. 00:00 Introduction 00:41 The bearishness paradox: "I don't know what people are talking about" 04:25 "Functional AGI" & brute forcing your way to automation 11:18 "We are in a human expertise regime" 15:31 The weird equilibrium: automating entry-level but not experts 17:22 The expert data paradox 24:44 The sovereign individual: a prediction framework for the AI era 28:51 "Vastly increased what a single person can do" 45:04 "It's gonna be the decade of agents" 49:01 Managing tens of agents in parallel 52:56 "I actually think vibecoding is unbelievably high potential" 58:47 Claude 4.5's strange new awareness @adamdangelo @amasad @eriktorenberg

Our ultimate goal is at this higher level: the ability for humanity as a whole, along with all artificial intelligence, to share knowledge, create technology, and work together to solve problems. We describe this as “collective intelligence”.
