Seeing all these posts about users hitting Claude limit and how that stalls their flow of work -> looks like @AnthropicAI is the first to achieve product market fit.

You don’t rank in ChatGPT. You get selected.

saw whatsapp groups too having agents talking on behalf of those people. this is weird.

AI is simply exposing folks who were not only bad at writing, but also have bland thinking and taste for insights.

Just crossed 100 members in my Reddit community! 🎉 Built it to promote content from my AI tools authority site & it’s sending quality traffic to continue the grind. If you do Reddit marketing, would love to learn from you. #RedditMarketing #BuildInPublic #AuthoritySites

It took me 1 hour to make ChatGPT/Gemini create a table infographic with correct information --- one which I had manually collected and gave into the prompt. This stuff still hallucinates even when one gives the info. Feeling I might as well had made the table on my own 🫤

Spotted in a website footer. Every site should have this.

In 2026, I have decided to niche further down to 'newsletters' only ---> using thought leadership approach of curating original insights via data or human experts. I believe emails written by humans are going to be even more important with AI slop taking over. #buildinpublic

Which publications are nailing data storytelling focused content? Can be both media and brand-focused ones publishing data stories ---> looking for good inspirations! #buildinpublic #ContentMarketing #datastorytelling

Most marketers are using AI, but they haven’t seen an increase in ROI because of it. However, when we surveyed over 1000 marketers, most didn’t use MCPs. The companies that use them are seeing a much better ROI. If you aren’t using MCPs, you should consider it.

The preference of LLMs for refreshed content is good. Folks will focus more on improving existing content than make publishing by 'numbers' a priority. This forces for continous improvement of existing content. I am optimisitic AI search engines would lead to better internet.

Reached 4k finally ----> next stop is 10k! Always be publishing :D #nichesite #buildinpublic

you can vibe-code your app you can no-code your app you can just code your app but at the end of the day the app with the best distribution & positioning wins was true 10 years ago will be true in 10 years from now sorry

A few hours back, saw @sama's tweet on ChatGPT remembering past interactions across chats. When I opened Gemini, I got this info. That's how it needs to be - give the power to the end user on how their data is recorded, what I want to give, and use for my work! #googlegemini

@minchoi Woah 🥹

Less than 24 hours ago, Google dropped Firebase Studio. Cursor AI, Lovable, Bolt, v0, deploy, all in the browser. Free. Minds are blown. 10 wild examples: 👇

Your customers lie to you. Here’s the translation guide:

@frantzfries I used to think this but then used Gemini 2.5 Pro and it’s been very useful so far.

this ai bubble pop is going to be wild

Google should replace the usual basic keyword like search space with prompt as input. This would help with much better search results. Can consider allowing us to add sources too. Otherwise the google search now is pretty bad even with the March core update. #seo #googlesearch

Google notebookLM’s ‘discover search’ feature is better than google search. I can prompt it for what I’m looking for. Based on my existing sources, it gives me 10 best sources from web and they are all on point. This is now a part of my usual search workflow. #NotebookLM
