@marcklingen lmao hell yeah ... simple is sweet

@brianjoseff Google Drive app lol

Much less worried about my tax filings, gov docs, personal admin now: - scanned all physical paperwork - let Claude - read file - rename “YYYY-MM <short name>.pdf” - move to an archive folder - add row to index csv with a longer description

@riverworkspace i want a small village of geniuses in my garage tho

Recursive self-improvement (RSI): AI capable enough at coding and research that it starts building the next version of itself. Amodei at Davos: "We would use models good at AI research to produce the next generation." He calls the endpoint "a country of geniuses in a datacenter."

@riverworkspace good job little AI 👏

Anthropic accidentally leaked Claude Code's entire source last week. 512,000 lines of TypeScript, instantly mirrored across GitHub.

@ChandlerSupple Yes you can set up skills/automations that are attached to email receipt -- so you can get it to do pretty much anything you need. Could even access Github and look at codebase to answer product questions people have like "where in settings can i manage my account" etc

@brianjoseff Sweet! Can I configure other skills to run when I receive an email (e.g., "If we get a sales inquiry, research the sender and share a customized one-pager")?

I don’t want another AI slop app. I want a system where AI handles the minutiae so I can focus on high-leverage, creative, uniquely human work. River, when set up to act as a Chief of Staff, is just that. Because River understands my work, files, conversations, priorities, and ongoing threads, it helps me: ☞  Work through my inbox 99% on its own, drafting emails in my voice and clearing noise ☞ Manage my relationships with more consistency ☞ Turn loose ideas and fragmented threads into concrete next steps ☞ Keep track of people, projects, and commitments I’d otherwise lose Here’s a walkthrough of River acting as my AI Chief of Staff.

You can run the same system by signing up here ✌️ rivereditor.com/work

@ChandlerSupple When will you be self-publishing that multi-volume Romantasy epic you were telling me about?

We just added a tool to River that allows anyone to become a self-published author on Amazon in just a few minutes Authors can now import or generate a manuscript with Claude, create cover art with Grok, and instantly export it as an ePub for Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP)

@ChandlerSupple Insane numbers on this PR .... we truly do live in a brave new world

@ChandlerSupple 📜!

Few demos from a new document editing tool I'm working on with @brianjoseff to enable the world's first 100x writer Still rough around the edges, but would love some feedback rivereditor.com

@johnkrausphotos Hey! DM’ing you now. Sorry I don’t even remember where I found that tbh

@brianjoseff Hey BJ, you’re using an image of mine on your website. Mind shooting me a message here on X?

Alright party people….time to announce something we’ve been grinding on in stealthy silence for literally FOUR (4) years. Bedrock Galactica, or Gal! It's a personal computer that is web-integrated, Ai-augmented, and owned by you. bedrock.computer/gal

@BenjaminDEKR @SiliconSynapses :)

@SiliconSynapses @brianjoseff They've been working on this for FOUR (4) years but didn't consider this

@brianjoseff Okay. I suppose. The $5k price is going to be a problem, though.

@SiliconSynapses @BenjaminDEKR Thanks

@brianjoseff @BenjaminDEKR Oh. Then might want to proof your TOS .

@SiliconSynapses @BenjaminDEKR it is refundable!

@brianjoseff @BenjaminDEKR Cool idea but selling a 5000$ pc where the specs havent even been released yet with a 500$ non-refundable reservation fee is very scammy.

@reillywood linux but we think most people will actually interface with it via a client on their Mac or in-browser

@brianjoseff What OS is it running?

@AI__Cassandra indeed. that's why i chose that as an example! unfortunately from personal experience

@brianjoseff Fun fact: not all LLMs will support this prompt. They'll flag it as harmful. Great example! 👌🏼

@creitve that is the goal. there are trade-offs that we're still working on though.

@brianjoseff Does it mean the AI is 100% local and has a 100% functionality without any of your servers?

@danBamikiya 🙌

@brianjoseff love this ethos

@BenjaminDEKR I had an aggressive stalker for awhile and thought very seriously about this. It would have been extremely helpful to be able to talk to an Ai about it.

Looking at their website, their highlighted example is about buying a gun against a stalker....! Weird demo to lead with........
