“Project Hail Mary” - 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Seen it twice and looking forward to speaking about it with @peterboghossian and @ReidN soon.
My “geeky gripe” for now (spoiler!) is the technological synchronicity issue - long discussed in astrobiology 101. But that’s ~true ∀ such sci-fi.

@lucas__crespo So true. This is the only reason why I still use Arc Search on mobile today & dia. & hate using notion for some reason 👾

Design can make equally functional products feel extremely different

all the homies switched to @usemonologue and no one can really explain why (the answer is vibes actually)

@perplexity_ai genuinely a great experience, been a niche arc mobile user mostly thought this wouldn't change that but it did.
did:
- found the best papers from last week on arxiv and summarised like fynman
- checked flight prices (across the week) w/o manual effort.

@shezanick I haven’t seen any designer I admire getting seriously excited about this

Google Stitch is interesting but let’s be honest about what it is.
Spell check didn’t make anyone a better writer. It just made bad writing less frequent. That’s what AI design tools do. They clean up the mess. They don’t create the vision.
You can prompt claude code, gemini, or any of them and they will all give you something competent. Not bad. Just not interesting.
When everyone has access to “pretty good,” pretty good stops working. It becomes noise. The baseline shifts and very rapidly the only stuff that cuts through the noise is the stuff that has a point of view.
That takes an eye and imagination and I promise you no prompt box is ever gonna give you that.
In summary, good designers are definitely not cooked.

Who else is hooked on building rn?

AI is supposed to save me time, but now I find myself building stuff all evening and weekend and it's actually increasing my time in front of the computer WTF

I really thought a few of my recent tweets were certified bangers.

@noahkagan Linkedin is super fake but we’re way too quick to drag people on here.
we could use being some optimism coded after all that's what building for the future is all about.
English
Hot take - LinkedIn is for nice people.
Not saying that's always best but the community here shocks me with how critical they are of... everything.
Garry Tan makes some skills and instead of talking about it, people just bash it.
Company launches some CMO AI thing - all posts I saw were shitting all over it.
Meanwhile on LinkedIn the comments and replies are all surprisingly encouraging.

@lucas__crespo The whole design aesthetic is just the refresh tech needed so bad.

It’s amazing how perplexity has inspired legions of designers

@OfficialLoganK @GoogleAIStudio old experience felt limited, and it had a lot of potential. It'll be so cool to have a good upgrade,
y’all having a whole shipping week
English
Tomorrow we will unveil the all new vibe coding experience in @GoogleAIStudio, the team has spent 4 months rebuilding it all from scratch and smoothing out rough edges to help everyone bring their ideas to life.
This is a big step forward, but just the start : )

@elonmusk Initially used it; it was slow, but recently it's been surprisingly fast and super stable. I thought it was going to be a gimmick and not actually going to work and slow down for no reason, but it's definitely worth it and for sure going to be copied by other labs too.

you can 10x the quality of the videos you create by being ruthless about where you take inspo from…
there’s a huge difference between creators that have an amazing reference bank vs just trying to rip “what’s currently working” on the X timeline
i built a huge a swipe file which includes:
- the best commercials from the last 10 years
- critically acclaimed movie trailers
- random clips I couldn't look away from
rt + comment "swipe" and I'll send over the file (must be following)
