I'll be honored if you listen to it. I won't be upset if you hate it.

My new EP, A Depression, is streaming everywhere now.

@emollick Fable docs even mentioned that Fable with low effort outperformed other models, which might affect the cost curve.

[Andrew Cove @aac]

So... they're going to let semiconductor stocks drop, buy, and call of the hold, right?

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

I honestly don't understand the assumption that there will be continued open weights models. At some point, China will regulate release of Mythos-class models or the companies making open weights models will switch to closed.

There will still be open weights, just not frontier.

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

"Switch to a cheaper model to save money" is a problem because cheaper models are worse (maybe they are good enough for a particular purpose, but still worse).

More often a better approach is hierarchies of models, with smart models are orchestrators and auditors of cheap ones.

@adcock_brett Are they self-assembling yet?

@bcherny Does Cowork share the monthly quota with Claude Code?

[Andrew Cove @aac]

@claudeai Does Cowork share the same quota as Claude Code?

[Andrew Cove @aac]

No shade on Francis, but I don't think I'd want to go around talking about how it only took 5 months to build a product at a time when agents are only accelerating.

[Francis Davidson @FDavidsonT]

Thrilled to have worked closely with OpenAI to build @OdessiaTravel.

In 5 months, we built a travel agent that can plan and book entire trips: flights, hotels, experiences, places to see – all personalized to you. Options come back in a few seconds with rich visuals.

Grateful for @OpenAIDevs for the partnership.

[Andrew Cove @aac]

hopefully this turns into one of those @ClaudeDevs resets our quotas early weeks.

I'm at 40% and it's only Sunday, and that's without major structural changes outside the change from 4.7.

[Andrew Cove @aac]

Opus 4.8 in claude code has repeatedly burned time and tokens chasing down rabbit holes that weren't important. Hit escape, as what it's doing, and it apologizes profusely.

Also, multiple agents reporting issues with bash tool use being broken.

Love an upgrade.

[Andrew Cove @aac]

e.g.:
me: 12 tool uses and 2+ minutes to edit the file? seriously?
claude: No excuse — that was wasteful, and I caused it. A 3-paragraph paste needed maybe Read + Edit + commit (3 calls). 100K tokens and 12 tool uses is a fresh agent re-reading big files and fumbling

@danshipper @every "very good at writing in your voice given the right context" -- do you go into more detail about what "the right context" is?

[Andrew Cove @aac]

@mindfa11 Ooph. Heal up. Those pits need you.

[Andrew Cove @aac]

I suspect that the *entire* Fender lawsuit thing is about the Silver Sky.

[Andrew Cove @aac]

@DrJoshuaGrant Good bot.

Now that normies give a shit about technology I gotta listen to them call it Navidia all day

@dpetrou Does this end with you building your own agentic keyboard?

Bet you don't even need all of the existing keys in that case.
