@clairevo yea, I think the agent having the ability to decide if it needs a computer for your task (versus simply responding where it can!) feels way better.

Been testing Claude Managed Agents + ChatGPT agents a bit, and even for tasks of moderate complexity tasks, I much prefer the turn/response style "chat" interface + tools than the "spin up a computer" experience of an Agent. Latency is too high and it does't feel the juice is worth the squeeze.

I’m still curious what makes someone technical vs not technical. Where is the line on the spectrum of Excel macro to doping your own silicon in the shed? Who decides? Is there a committee?

I've been so focused on Codex that I didn't realize ChatGPT can now directly edit files in Google Drive via the updated Google Drive connector. My assumption is Workspace Agents can do this as well, which opens a bunch of new opportunities.

Today, I’m closing my chapter at @OpenAI after three very meaningful years. I leave with deep gratitude for the opportunity to help scale the GTM organization. The timing feels right. I’m drawn back to the early stages of company building, and OpenAI is in a strong place—with GPT-5.5, Codex, and Denise Dresser's inspired leadership. I’m joining @ThriveCapital as an Operator in Residence. I’ve been fortunate to work at Thrive-backed companies over the past decade—first Stripe, then OpenAI—and have experienced firsthand their commitment to their companies. I’m excited to pay that forward to founders across the portfolio and stay close to building. To my OpenAI teammates: thank you. Special gratitude to @bradlightcap for taking a bet on me. And to the Thrive team—I can’t wait to get started.

.@Collision is bullish on two types of people: high-agency individuals and double majors. "There are two categories of people I would be super bullish on right now and I think will do incredibly well over the next 10-20 years. First, high-agency people. The people at Stripe who have been talking to customers and know exactly what we should do. It's the people who have that pep in their step and want to go make Stripe better. They are so much more empowered thanks to AI." "The second is double majors. I think if you understand software and understand finance, or if you understand software and understand marketing, you now can go massively improve the entire marketing funnel for your company. Now, one person can do what would have taken 20 people dredging through all these systems." "Charlie Munger talked about the importance of being multidisciplinary and multidisciplinary thinking. He thinks getting a functional understanding of many disciplines is not that hard. You can just go read the books now or you can talk to your AI about it. I think multidisciplinary thinkers are going to do incredibly well."

I know that today's all about GPT-5.5, but I have to drop a mention of how great ChatGPT Agents are. They're powerful, incredibly easy to build (they have a builder, like GPTs, but way better), and are accessible in the place I spend a lot (too much) of my work time: Slack. As one example, I have an agent that searches every day for pharma-related AI news. Because it has all of my relevant context, it's incredibly precise in what it finds. And because it has memory, where it keeps track of what it sends me, it never duplicates itself. In fact, there are days when it tells me it couldn't find anything new that I'd find interesting, which is better than just getting something low signal. There were some hiccups initially with Slack integration, and it's a bit confusing that you can integrate with Slack both as a tool (where the agent can DM you... as you) and as a channel (which is DEFINITELY the better way to do it for something like this). But overall, Agents is really what I'd consider state of the art for its capabilities and usability, and I know the team at OpenAI worked really hard to get here, so huge kudos to everyone that contributed. Very exciting, and if this takes off like GPTs in our company, we'll be running thousands of new agents very soon.

@tarstarr @_simonsmith Some workspace created files opened 404s but otherwise I can tell a lot of thought went into this. Really loving what seems to be a very large window for Agent Instructions! Good job!

Introducing GPT-5.5 A new class of intelligence for real work and powering agents, built to understand complex goals, use tools, check its work, and carry more tasks through to completion. It marks a new way of getting computer work done. Now available in ChatGPT and Codex.

This is perhaps the dorkiest thing I have ever been excited about, but ChatGPT agents come with analytics that allow you to track use and adoption 😍 tracking whether people are actually using the things you've built on an org level is such a pain point, this rules.

Cursor and SpaceX: In search of a complete loop Quick notes on the deal: - the new AI lab meta of needing to own product and model in coding - why spacex and cursor need each other to close the loop - beyond ipo timing why this structure is interesting kwokchain.com/2026/04/23/cur…
