@joonasvirtanen My only critique is that Rothko should be seen very up close and I wish canvas was way bigger. It's ok if it's low quality, because the definition is not as important as being "inside" the Rothko's work.

We built Codex for writing, but not as a chatbot next to a doc. It’s a workspace for serious writing: pages, drafts, structure, notes, and style all connected in one place. Slowly opening it to testers now, and looking to talk with writers, investors, and early customers.

The irony of the current state of ai, is that bureaucracy was always an enemy of productivity, but it might become a new moat. If "abundant creation" is unlocked, the bureaucracy would help shape the creative process and decide what's worth building. Of course it will not appear as "bureaucracy", it will sound something like "Tastemaker Genius" or some sh.

If LLM will stop being lazy, we can have truly amazing graphics, that would tell so many stories about world in numbers. But everyone who read Tufte books, will immediately spot how many shortcuts LLM take to not do the hard work and just skip to visualizing couple of axes.

UI is here to stay. People, who said "NO UI" were wrong 20 years ago, 10 years ago and will be wrong in 10 years too. (I had to write this tweet to embed it to an article, so it would get timestamped and referenced in the future)

@justinmfarrugia And the funny thing — in original tweet, I never said I'm unhappy or happy. People just assumed things to feel superior about their choices and worldview. Vagueness was always one of the most powerful engagement drivers on this platform.

@vilinskyy I only ever bought their shirts (2017~) and they didn’t last as long as what I’ve gotten from Target or LA Apparel 🥲

One amazing outcome of ai chats is that people realized how important it is to work on how they ask what they need and how important context of the request is. But somehow people reluctant to learn to improve their prompts to other people, but go above and beyond to gather context for machine.
