@FoodProfessor @girlofcelje Focus on the areas you excel in instead of inventing new things to sell that you don't excel in.

I want to be able to walk into Tim Hortons ANY TIME OF DAY and order a good breakfast, not be told "its not breakfast" and be forced to buy a shitty chicken burger.

@JakeFleshner Govern Agents.

@kuzushi @diegocabezas01 Thats /goal. You are confusing /loop with /goal

/loop is just a crontab.

/goal is "Keep going and don't ask me questions until you achieve this success criteria"

[Jason Keirstead @BlueTeamJK]

@diegocabezas01 Loops (which are horribly named) are just scheduled tasks.

It is a crontab, for Claude.

That is all it is. It is not black magic. It's a freaking crontab.

@ZackKorman If you're trying to find AI usage on the endpoint, then use your EDR to query for it. There are dozens of example scripts for this on Github. If you want to find it on the network, look for calls to the LLM endpoints (which all follow a known URL pattern).

Not hard.

[Jason Keirstead @BlueTeamJK]

We have had widely available cheap AI now for almost 6 months.

So why does so much software still suck?

[Jason Keirstead @BlueTeamJK]

@simplydt If you need a Teams or Enterprise plan for compliance reasons, you end up paying by the token which is far more expensive. That is how Anthropic gets everyone, the single-user subscriptions are a gateway drug. They make their money on Enterprise.

Anyone else find it weird how much @claudeai
with Opus 4.8 all of a sudden likes to use the term "money shot"? Like... really?

@thatguybg Can I use it as a coding assistant? The lack of decent memory is what kills Claude Code.

[Jason Keirstead @BlueTeamJK]

@kentcdodds It makes sense in a way, but the government just passing a law that lets them nationalize companies is a strong disincentive to invest in said companies. I don't see this ever passing, in this form. If the government wants to take a stake by investing they can already do that

@mSanterre Because the VCs want to cash out before the bubble pops.

@GergelyOrosz This is a very warped take. People has always been the largest cost center in any organization. Saying "technology used to cost more than people" is nonsense.

The *entire point and history of automation* is because technology is cheaper than people going way back to the 1800s.

[Jason Keirstead @BlueTeamJK]

I do not understand why frontier AI companies are still wasting time and resources on training .

The nut that needs to be cracked is memory and incremental learning. Current models are already more than smart enough if they didn't have the working memory of a goldfish.

@BigAl_PHD @EsotericCofe In what universe do you think it's cheaper to do speech processing than text processing

[Jason Keirstead @BlueTeamJK]

@karrisaarinen @linear People in tech have such short memories.

Jira started as the lightweight, nimble alternative to Mantis. Which was the lightweight alternative to Bugzilla. Now Linear is the lightweight alternative. Eventually it will add all the needed enterprise feature creep as well.

[Jason Keirstead @BlueTeamJK]

@kupolov @dlwiest That's not true, and it's not the reason.

[Jason Keirstead @BlueTeamJK]

@dlwiest It's because in order to get access to audit logs and centralized config and SSO, which you need to ensure SOC2 compliance, you need Teams or Enterprise plans which only have pay per token prices.

[Jason Keirstead @BlueTeamJK]

@GergelyOrosz The fact remains that startups who can get away with all you can eat Max and Max20x plans have a huge cost advantage over enterprise customers who can't use them. At some point Anthropic will subsidize these plans less but currently you get like $5000-$10000 in compute for $200
