@Dimillian Thanks!! Looks like there’s still a bug with scrolling text that’s been there a while:

Here is the latest update to Codex Remote on iOS! As I posted, we now support the new visualisation feature, but there is also a ton of other improvements and fixes! learn.chatgpt.com/docs/changelog…

@EthanLipnik Yeah tbh I never used a reset because of this. I’d only reset if I actually reach the limit.

Wish I knew this wasn’t gonna be a banked reset and I wouldn’t have used one of my resets last night… Still happy there’s a reset though!

@Gavmn I stick with SwiftUI for most views because it's easier for me to review and even tweak myself. Then I may tell it that it's ok to use UIKit for things SwiftUI is bad at, like scrollview and gesture customization. They play well together.

my favorite Swift prototyping hack is telling the model to use UIKit instead of SwiftUI

team is cooking some great desktop improvements

@mamuso @cursor_ai Damn congrats!

Excited to share I've joined @cursor_ai! One thing that stood out to me was how much this design team cares about building excellent products. Looking forward to contributing and learning from everyone here.

What I learned about design from Eames. The Guest / Host Principle: @edwardsanchez/the-guest-host-relationship-in-product-design-8161f84e6755?sharedUserId=edwardsanchez" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@edwardsanchez…

i often think about this…

@davidsenra @tobi @eglyman Funny thing is that Apple Park is full of Norman doors. Was very surprising given the attention to detail everywhere else in the building.

.@tobi removed all the Norman doors from Shopify’s offices because he couldn’t have excellent people surrounded by bad design. Ramp Cofounder @eglyman says he learned the same lesson by studying Breville toasters: “ If you care about design, you should buy a Breville toaster.” “ One of the big problems in a lot of B2B software is: it starts out clean and elegant. There's a bunch of businesses who love the product and they start serving more customers and have more requirements and more ideas.” “Before you know it, you end up with these disasters of B2B softwares which require a PhD to learn how to use.” “ If you were to go ask people, ‘What do you want in a toaster or in a microwave?’ They might say I like toast but sometimes I want to reheat pizza. I should have a ‘reheat frozen pizza’ mode. Or maybe you're cooking stuff and want it to be more like an oven, or you want to make popcorn and it's a toaster/microwave and all these things.” “Before you know it, you end up with these toasters filled with buttons and buttons and knobs and dials.” “That is literally asking customers what they want and building exactly that.” “ if you watch people toast things, what they actually do falls into two categories: you hit start and either you've undercooked the toast and need to put it back in, or you've overdone it and have to start over.” “If you look at the [Breville] there are only a few buttons. One of the four buttons is called ‘A Bit More.’” “ No one would ask you for ‘A Bit More.’ They just want the perfect level of toast and it's hard to know that, so they built that in.”

@cjmlgrto Just light stuff. I do therapy with a real human too. Thanks for worrying though!

@edwardsanchez therapy is dangerous territory, be careful of AI psychosis!

The value I get for $200 a month out of my GPT subscription is so insane I almost feel like I’m cheating or scamming OpenAI. Not only Codex helping me work, but now an incredible voice model I can chat to for an unlimited amount of time to brainstorm, learn, and even as therapy.

@titanas @eastdakota Trouble is, thinking also costs tokens. When did Steve have to make a magical choice that had users pay more? The value of a query is impossible to predict. I may want to ask it to tell me about Paris and spend 2c, or I may be ready to spend $2 on a thorough answer.

The magic is available today, like Auto from ChatGPT, but there’s a conflictive cognitive resonance between automagically and is it thinking hard enough for the given problem or maybe I should have given higher effort for a better answer? That’s at least how I feel. The reasoning / thinking UIs don’t communicate reassurance nor a fallback mechanism to change settings. It’s still open to explore and experiment. Glad to know I’m not the only one thinking about it.

Should just be magic.

@seanallen_dev I talk, run it though a skill to rewrite it so it’s better composed, then submit. When it’s important. When it’s something quick I just send.

Do you talk or type when prompting? I feel like my prompts are better when I take the time to type them out. My thoughts are better composed. But I know others just talk to it and ramble.

anthropic including fable in the max plan

@titanas I didn’t get this vibe at all. These are extremely smart and cultured women - quite the opposite of the grandma stereotype. I actually love the representation.

Tech is amazing and suggests hardware OpenAI will release. The video tries hard to communicate how easy it is to use the product, three old women can do it so you can too, feels cringe and out of place compared to other elegant OAI videos. Weird vibes.

As part of this launch, we updated the shader used to represent ChatGPT. I used Blender to quickly sketch a wide variety of options and had Codex inspect the file and translate the material to Metal and WebGL.

I am SO excited for this. Also, this ad absolutely rules!

@erenbali @monogram_ai Congrats! Looks really cool and can’t wait to try it!

It's time to get out of stealth 👋 Today, we are launching @monogram_ai and announcing our $40m seed round led by DST and Lux Capital. Monogram is the first AI app that was built around a visual interface, from the ground up. We created a technology that generates an entire user interface on the fly, in just a few seconds. Ask anything, and instead of staring at a wall of text, you get an interactive visual response.

@StewartLynch I've noticed bugs in other parts of Xcode, and maybe even the OS where dark mode is not switching the primary color to white. Could be an OS bug. cc @Naxum

Is anyone else seeing this? I like to use Xcode in Dark Mode but when I am using intelligence, The text editor window shows the text as black rather than white. I have to select the text to read it. Is it just me? Have I got a strange appearance setting?

Tinkerble by @edwardsanchez is incredible. 👍
