"AI" in Logistics. It’s Already Here — Matt from @terminal49 and I discuss what the AI hype is all about it. We are at a technology inflection point in AI. We explore the significance of LLM's (large language models) and how the technology could accelerate innovation in logistics tech. Is AI just a bunch'a hype or is there potential?

@pitdesi I think you want both. Interfaces (dashboards, charts, lists) can be generated and pinned. Interfaces should be malleable. Chat -> voice can help provide the right interface -> drill down /sideways depending on what you are trying to do

Hot take: Chat is useful for asking questions about money. But it is not a good interface for managing money. Finance is full of structured workflows: budgeting, bill pay, taxes, investing, debt payoff, categorization, approvals, alerts, and planning. For those, you want purpose-built UI. Charts, tables, sliders for scenarios, dashboards, approval flows, etc. Chat works best when intent is fuzzy: “Where did my money go?” or “What should I look at?” But once the job becomes structured, repeated, visual, or high-stakes, UI wins. People are way more likely to use a purpose-built UI that guides them than a chat window for this. Like what @bchesky said about travel, similar thing here.

@morganlinton @steipete Which improvements have made it better for you?

@steipete Thanks Peter, I’ve been super impressed with how much OpenClaw has improved over the last month. As someone that’s been using it since the early days, it’s kinda like a whole new product now, so much polish 🤌

We've been working really hard on performance, reliability, security, and stability. Invented whole new automation flows with crabbox, automated video QA and are spending insane amounts of CPU cycles on CI. It's a good release.

@creativemints @framer I am interested in your work. there might be some alignment with what we do @terminal49

Opened @framer for “just a quick experiment” and accidentally speedran the entire night :) Open the thread, I will show the current progress! 🧵

@jasonfried I like it!

First I critique something particularly embarrassing in Basecamp 4, and then show you how we completely redesigned the same flow in Basecamp 5. We grow!

@morganlinton wow gorgeous

So I took a bunch of video during this solo backpacking trip. I have absolutely no interest in being a You Tuber and telling people to “smash the like button” but I do wonder if anyone thinks this would be fun to watch? Be brutally honest, I can take it if you think this is a silly idea. And no, I wouldn’t do any of the video editing myself - just plan on giving a bunch of clips to GPT 5.5 and see what it does 🤷‍♂️

@mitsuhiko I am very interested in the harness/process to get this to this state. 6k+ commits seems like the job of some heavy ai-assisted automation

Say what you want: this is impressive. github.com/oven-sh/bun/pu…

@mikebagblaster @steipete why do you have to be a dick about it?

@steipete yeah that was one of my partners decision, not mine. their angle was purely a marketing decision- your code sucks and the product is mediocre, but it got astroturfed to high hell and got traction because of that

I was wondering why the OpenClaw repo got so large, turns out the CHANGELOG md file takes up almost 500MB through all packfiles.

@travisk 2010!

Uber's 16th birthday coming up ... thinking about a "summit" for the OG's... any ideas? who'd be down to show up?! startDate < 9/2015 X^x^x ... iykyk 🤔🚘🥳 #UberGetsItsDriversLicense Location poll...

@kapilansh_twt 1password shared vault

how do teams actually share .env variables securely because the options I see are - Slack DM (terrible) - email (worse) - shared Notion doc (somehow even worse) - 1Password or similar - something I'm missing

@dotta Agree. I like building a company with people and *tools*.

For Paperclip, we're moving away from "zero human companies" and moving towards "the app people use to manage agents at work" 📎📎📎

@MarioNawfal Muted for posting garbage

🇺🇸 A Tennessee cop got punched in the head mid-arrest of a suspect, when a random bystander jumped in to help him finish the job. Most people would've just filmed it. Greatly done.

@eoghan FIN! Congrats!

@thinkymachines Nice flex with some Vintage JBL horns in the background

People talk, listen, watch, think, and collaborate at the same time, in real time. We've designed an AI that works with people the same way. We share our approach, early results, and a quick look at our model in action. thinkingmachines.ai/blog/interacti…

Post board meeting unwinding

@joedinardo @Business_Nerd_ Interesting. Who is incentivized to run these bots?

@dodeja @Business_Nerd_ Also when you're dealing with spend at scale, no one in the ecosystem is incentivized to identify and flag fraud. The agency that made the buying recco would rather set lowe benchmarks than own a bad decision. The CMO that hired the agency certainly isn't going to shoulder blame

The trade-off no one talks about: Subscription = millions of users. Ad-supported = billions. Zuck explains why most platforms pick ads.

@joedinardo @Business_Nerd_ Thats not the norm. If the ads don't return advertisers wont keep investing.

@Business_Nerd_ Well also you can use bot traffic to inflate the impressions your advertisers pay for and steal billions of dollars...so there's that.

@oliverhenry both

I have still yet to meet someone actually using hermes. Whenever I mention it, i just get bots in my replies. Openclaw 4 lyf

@DavidOndrej1 why?

stop developing locally start developing on a VPS trust me

@morganlinton Yeah I have M1 Max 64GB and can get useable performance out of many local LLMs

If you want to get started with local llms, without breaking the bank, the M1 Studio is a great starting point. I have an M1 Studio w/32gb of ram, and sure, I can’t get anything close to frontier model performance, but I can tinker and learn like there’s no tomorrow. Great for curious people.
