Ever wondered what your AI agent was actually doing?

Our latest free project runs locally and traces reasoning and tool calls in Codex, Claude Code, and Pi.

You can now see what your agent is REALLY doing, live: https://t.co/3dVBozFlPx

@willking Amazing! Beats couch cushions.

@ridd_design @joindiveclub Prioritize video. There's too much value in the guests sharing their work.

I'll continue to follow the pod on my phone's pod catcher. If I start to listen and recognize I'm missing too much by not watching video, I'll come back to it once I'm in front of a screen.

@clairevo I poked around for 10 mins and agree with most of your feedback, @clairevo.

I'm most interested in the new design patterns for progress, artifacts, and questions.

Knowledge workers need a more approachable AI productivity app than CC / Chat. This ain't it, but it's a step.

[Brian Greenbaum @BrianGreenbaum]

It was a privilege to appear on the "How I AI" podcast, hosted by @clairevo , to focus on a part of my role at @pendoio that I’m especially proud of: championing AI awareness, education, and literacy across the organization.

Want to AI-pill your team?

Give them time off to vibe code 🙃

That's exactly what @BrianGreenbaum at @pendoio did over parental leave and he came back FIRED UP to change how the design + product team worked.

In this week's How I AI, Brian shows us:
- the exact playbook to get a whole team adopting AI
- how to measure AI success + adoption
- and the most important: how to get legal, finance, and security able to move fast on new tools

If you want to get promoted by being the AI leader on your team, this is the episode for you.

As always, big thanks to our wonderful sponsors:

Who's creating the best AI content for UX/Product Designers?

I'm looking for practical, applied workflows, use cases, and tips for enhancing any aspect of the UX Design workflow:

Who should I follow on LinkedIn, Youtube, X, Threads, Substack, or just old school blogs?

I usually don't do this,but I think people really need to hear about our experience with @Hertz. I understand that businesses & corporations need to care about their bottom line but the way @Hertz treated us goes beyond anything I ever experienced. Read thread (shortened version)

[Paul Romer @paulmromer]

The twitter thread version of my plan:

0. Stop testing people with symptoms. Presume positive and isolate.

Made min spend on my @AmericanExpress @spg card over 2mo ago for bonus reward. CusServ says it will take 6-8 wks to resolve. Awful!
