New Material

@jasonyuan 👀

Dot was deeply loved by the people who worked on it. We expressed that love through careful curation and editing, through spending months iterating on and developing an intuition for the material. However, it was simultaneously was very much a product of the old “Apple” style paradigm where craft and perfection were king, because in the old world designers had years to play with materials and develop an intuition for them. Multi-touch, aluminum, glass… Now the material (intelligence) changes too fast for that process. So products that live in symbiosis with the material, that embrace its rate of change and probabilistic nature as something to be loved vs optimized away are the ones that win. It’s a new material. We learn to work with it in new ways that celebrate it for what it is vs try to mimic the materials that came before, to express our love for humanity in new forms. so, tldr. Update your definition of design, of craft, or watch it die.

@sachinadlakha18 @aaronabentheuer Works pretty well as is on Mac via Continuity!

Small detail from today’s launch: Meet OddJob of James Bond fame, @gabeschnitzel’s OpenClaw.

Agents open up a million new possibilities and novel design challenges. We're excited to begin sharing our perspectives on it.

Team: @gabeschnitzel, @vedantmg, @aaronabentheuer

🔔Live activities for agent observability. Compatible with 🦞OpenClaw. A first step in our effort to build an open source library of agentic UI patterns. Available now on GitHub

Now you can monitor what your @openclaw is up to in realtime on your lock screen. We built a way to stream OpenClaw’s… - Thinking - Tool calls - Price & Token use Available to try on GitHub 👇

We’ve been working on exploring building a library of open source UI patterns for agents on mobile, starting with Live Activities for observability. It’s available on GitHub and compatible with 🦞OpenClaw.
