@jun_song The simplest way to say it is that the designed world is currently designed for humans. As robots become more ubiquitous, there will be a real opportunity for innovative robot first design, and then eventually a huge segment of the market will be robot first.

A frequent question about Physical AI: Why are robots shaped like humans? Two main reasons: • Compatibility with millions of existing factories • Training data extracted directly from humans Building a factory takes insane engineering. Misplace a single machine, and productivity can tank by double digits. Since most factories were built around human workers, reconfiguring them for robots would cost as much as building a whole new factory from scratch. Plus, the training data is pulled straight from real, skilled workers on the floor. That’s why, until synthetic data is heavily developed, humanoids are the best fit. However, @elonmusk’s new factories like Tesla and Terapep are built for robots from day one. This will trigger a massive productivity gap compared to merely dropping humanoids into legacy factories. China is on the exact same path, already designing "Dark factories" operated with zero humans.

@JordanSchachtel @MaxNordau However, that also means that specialized skills will no longer be developed, if you can just make AI do it for you. We all thought there was only an upside to “everyone being connected globally” when we introduced the modern internet, but a huge shitshow also came along with it.

People keep asking "what jobs will AI destroy?" Wrong question. Instead, ask what a brilliant 14-year-old in West Virginia can now do that he could never do before. Previously all his relatives went into the mine bc that was the only door open to them. He was largely doomed because of where he was born. A kid growing up in that same holler today can build an AI company from his bedroom. Think about what that actually means for opportunity in America. The Doomers are wrong. These new tools will make the system more meritocratic, more democratized, and more distributed than ever before.

There are a lot of stupid tweets like this. The fact that Pocahontas was a Native American interacting with European colonialists is central to the story. If you make her white, the story doesn’t make sense. Helen of Troy’s race is not a central part of the story.
Taya Bass@travelingflying

Imagine the outrage if a historically non-White character like Pocahontas were made White in a movie. Yet it’s considered acceptable to make all historically White characters non-White in movies. This is racism against White people.

@PositivFuturist The best way to defeat conservatives in argument is to argue from the right of them. Second Amendment, why not personal nukes? Lower taxes, why not zero taxes?

The best way to defeat liberals in argument is to argue from the left of them. $15 minimum wage, why not $100? Asylum? why not open borders? They have no principles they can call on to limit their own arguments.

RESTful APIs may be dead soon. Instead, web services may expose a single POST entry point for a prompt. Internally, an AI agent may decide how to interpret it and what to do with the data and the database.

The biggest alpha leak of 2026 is that you can tokenmax $10k/mo with OpenClaw/Hermes + GBrain and get the AI that everyone will have in 2028 for $100/mo, but you can get it now, and that is the biggest single unlock you can have vs your competition

Apparently an unpopular opinion, but I don't think Anthropic owes anyone heavily subsidized tokens for their third party app.
Theo - t3.gg@theo

I can't help but feel personally burned by the Claude Code changes announced today. We put so much work into wrapping the (atrocious) Claude Agent SDK in T3 Code. It was the ONLY path they supported, so we made it work. It was hell. Now our users are getting their rate limits cut by 40x, despite us doing everything right. I listened to the Claude Code team. I had my issues with their direction, but I trusted them and took them at their word. I will never make that mistake again. Until we see significant change, it is safe to assume any statement from an Anthropic employee is a lie on a timer. The rug will be pulled, no matter how many promises are made beforehand.

Tucker Carlson asks Kevin O’Leary the one question AI enthusiasts can’t answer: What happens to people when machines can do everything better than humans? Kevin O’Leary responds: We can’t let China win the AI race. Tucker points out that taxpayers are being “forced” into the AI agenda, left with “no choice” but to leap forward. O’Leary laughs and says taxpayers can say no. Then Tucker points to a glaring example where they already tried to say no, and O’Leary is forced to take the conversation elsewhere.

Why does Claude not want us to use 3rd-party harnesses? Are they afraid we'll use fewer tokens than usual?

@mehulmpt Apart from a harness, I wrote so I could speak to my agents instead of type, I use claude -p a lot in a shell script. That will be significantly more expensive soon. I don’t even need a third-party tool for it to feel expensive.

The Claude meltdown makes ZERO sense to me honestly. They allow you to use every app in their ecosystem with elevated usage numbers, which is exactly what you want if you are locked into Claude ecosystem (desktop app, design, remote control, etc.) If you want third party harnesses, there are MANY good models already. Why is it so important to use Opus on some random third party inference? There are models equally good, use them!

This means you'll be able to build on Claude without needing an API key! Everything running on the Agent SDK will instead draw from a new monthly credit, separate from your subscription limits.
ClaudeDevs@ClaudeDevs

Starting June 15, paid Claude plans can claim a dedicated monthly credit for programmatic usage. The credit covers usage of: - Claude Agent SDK - claude -p - Claude Code GitHub Actions - Third-party apps built on the Agent SDK

@lydiahallie @backnotprop @ClaudeDevs So in the future, if you use -p, you can use it for ~1 day/month included, and then you either stop using it or buy more credits. It's an upgrade if you're only interactive in CC. If you use -p at all: huge downgrade. But will it increase or decrease revenue for Anthropic? hmmm

@backnotprop @ClaudeDevs No extra cost, and yes it still runs on your subscription. claude -p just gets its own included(!) budget now,($20–$200/mo depending on plan) instead of sharing limits with interactive Claude Code ugly diagram but maybe it helps:
