The ability to project out just 3-6 months longer than other companies could become a massive superpower for any company. The crazy part is that this doesn’t even require you to be a visionary. It just requires recognizing that there is massive information asymmetry and actively attempt to tap into that information asymmetry. The uneven distribution of the trends that have already manifested but not yet obvious to everyone could become a material strategic execution advantage for any company. But it requires constantly staying current on all trends regarding AI which can be exhausting, but more necessary now than ever before. Last thing I’ll say is that it is so tempting to draw historical analogies of the current environment. But the thing that is counterintuitive is that with AI there are literally “no priors”.

Thanks for the kind words @rohanvarma. The partnership between @Cisco and @OpenAI has been nothing short of fabulous. Especially over the past 75 days. Our team is pretty stoked with the progress being made with the use of Codex. Let’s keep pushing on both sides. Appreciate you leaning in. The goal is to have 6 products 100% written with AI by end of 2026 and 70% of our products 100% written with AI by end of 2027. @kevinweil thinks I am sandbagging. I hope to prove him right ;-).
Rohan Varma@rohanvarma

Had a call with Cisco leadership today to check in on their Codex deployment. They’re leveraging AI coding and codex more aggressively than most startups and frontier tech companies I talk to. Skills for everything, agent swarms to execute bigger projects, automated code review, deep system integrations, and more 👀 They’ve quickly hit new bottlenecks that we’re jumping in to help them solve with more codex. If your public company exec team isn’t pushing the org to cut project timelines by 95%, maximally leverage coding agents, and reimagine the SDLC, you’re ngmi. Shoutout to Jeetu Patel - bullish on Cisco.

🚨 BREAKING: Reports indicate Iran has struck Saudi oil infrastructure, with strikes said to have affected the Aramco facility at Ras Tanura amid the wider regional escalation. Ras Tanura is one of the largest oil refining and export facilities in the world. The refinery is Saudi Aramco’s largest refinery, with capacity of roughly 550,000 barrels per day.

@lennysan @jpatel41 @Cisco I've seen Linkedin ads with him in the videos (so often) and till date, I never understood why. Is this a paid post/podcast? Just asking!

@yuehan_john_ @lennysan I agree. You have to establish trust first. And that takes an investment of time and it takes effort.

@lennysan @jpatel41 context matters a lot here - this probably only works once psychological safety is already established on the team. without that foundation, public criticism lands as public humiliation regardless of good intent

@jpatel41 is a unicorn in tech: incredibly smart+incredibly kind. I know the latter for a fact. I have gone through many serious personal challenges over the last 3 years. Jeetu has always been there for me. He's also driving a legendary AI transformation at CSCO. Good listen!

To my Product team at @Cisco. Just because you can build it instantly doesn’t mean it is worth shipping. Create a new mental model. Here’s my advice… Be intellectually honest with yourself and if you don’t possess these things, figure out a way to learn them, FAST in order to stay relevant. The rules of the game have changed faster than anyone thought. Don’t fight it. Adjust to the new reality. Keep learning. Stay hungry. Be continually curious. You can change the world now more than anytime in the past. Your future self needs to define success very differently. Internalize this…in the new world more than ever before, the next gen engineer will define success very differently. It looks something like this. - Success requires judgement - Success requires instinct - Success requires clarity in your mind on the most important problem you want to solve - Success requires good taste - Success requires obsession on outcomes - Success requires understanding unit economics. Be cost-aware like an operator. - Success requires extreme emphasis on safety - Success requires that you are a terrific manager of digital agents - Success requires that you move really fast - Success requires that you adopt an entirely new mental model - Success requires constantly learning and unlearning Ponder what it will take to succeed. It will be counterintuitive. It’ll be unsettling. It will take sacrifice. It will be ridiculously hard. It’ll be scary. Yet it’ll be exciting. It’ll allow you to imagine a very different caliber of ambition. At Cisco, we have shipped our first product at this point fully written by AI. Kudos to the AI Defense team. 100% of the code in AI Defense is written by AI. By the end of 2026, we have a conservative estimate of at least half a dozen products written completely by AI. By end of 2027, we will shoot to have 70% of our products written 100% with AI. And these products must be superior in dimensions of quality, performance, simplicity, usability, adoption, and delivering real business outcomes for our customers. I hope you make these goals look ridiculously conservative with the work you make AI agents do for you. It’s time to up-level ourselves. Modern development practices have flipped. I am proud of all of you who are teaching yourself to rethink how you work. Reimagine how you code. Your teams augmented by digital coworkers are going to look very different. You will have many more teammates who will work round the clock. I’m excited for what lies ahead in our innovation journey. Your innovation journey. Move fast. Deliver something magical. Obsess about safety. Let’s build a great freaking company and don’t let your imagination be your constraint.

This is a great Markdown file for every developer’s AI coding environment.
Guri Singh@heygurisingh

Holy shit. The guy who BUILT Claude Code just shared his actual workflow. Boris Cherny runs 10-15 Claude sessions in parallel every single day. While you're prompting one AI, he has 5 in his terminal + 5-10 on the web all shipping code simultaneously. And the real weapon? His CLAUDE.md file. Every time Claude makes a mistake, the team adds a rule so it NEVER happens again. Boris literally said: "After every correction, end with: Update your CLAUDE.md so you don't make that mistake again." Claude writes rules for itself. The longer you use it, the smarter it gets on YOUR codebase. His other insane detail: he hasn't written a single line of SQL in 6+ months. Claude just pulls BigQuery data directly via CLI. Claude Code now accounts for 4% of ALL public GitHub commits. Engineers who haven't set this up yet are already behind. This CLAUDE.md template is the difference between using AI as a chatbot vs using it as a fleet of senior engineers. Drop it in any project. Free.

A significant amount of your company's value is sitting inside your enterprise content. Financial documents, contracts, marketing assets, etc. This is the context needed to let you finally tap into the value of AI agents at scale. @Levie shared with @jpatel41 at the @Cisco AI Summit how deploying agents can automate workflows, create revenue opportunities, and unlock new areas of value.

Such a fun conversation with @pmarca 👇
a16z@a16z

.@pmarca on Moltbook, the social network for AI agents: "All of the science fiction novels basically have AI either being super utopian or super dystopian, but they never have this incredible sense of humor aspect, which is what we're actually getting—where people are just using everything as fodder for memes." "Moltbook is saturated with all of these incredibly funny memes. It's actually quite unclear which ones are real and which ones aren't." "There's an AI agent on Moltbook that has decided to create an AI religion. And at least as of today, it had hired a single human worker to walk the streets of San Francisco and practice the new AI religion." Marc Andreessen with @jpatel41 at Cisco AI Summit

AI 3D workflows for web are getting scary good. Here is a demo with a large splat background (+LoD), mesh character, spatial audio, VR support, and lighting. I was able to create it in a few hours (repo in reply). built with @threejs @sparkjsdev @theworldlabs Audio on :)

Excited for the opportunity to work with @gdb, @sama and the @OpenAI team on building out the compute infrastructure for AGI! Very grateful for the tremendous opportunity and experience at Intel over the last 4 years leading networking, edge computing and AI. Privilege of a lifetime to have worked closely with @LipBuTan1, @PGelsinger and @nickmckeown1
Greg Brockman@gdb

Welcome @sk7037 to OpenAI! Incredibly excited to work with him on designing and building our compute infrastructure, which will power our AGI research and scale its applications to benefit everyone.
