@BenjDicken Probably not one paper tbh. More like a ladder: backprop -> embeddings -> seq2seq -> attention -> transformers.

@MeenakshiYACS Agentic AI is where the hype meets 500 edge cases and a rollback button. That's the part I care about.

[Khairallah AL-Awady @eng_khairallah1]

Boris Cherny, the creator of Claude Code at Anthropic, just explained why most people aren't getting real results from Claude

this is one of the best interviews I've seen in a long time

in this talk he breaks down exactly how most people never actually set up Claude:

- the 14% you lose to CLAUDE.md before typing a word
- the memory system that eliminates repeating yourself every conversation
- the custom instructions most users leave completely blank
- the project settings that give Claude permanent context about your work

if you've been using Claude for more than a month and never left the chat window, you have at least 30 untouched features. probably 38

instead of another show tonight, watch this

make sure to bookmark it before it gets lost in your feed

the guide is in the article below

@nestersk @lesliemathys I think this is the sane path. Services first, productize later. Way better than building SaaS in a vacuum and hoping the pain point is real.

[JakeSmith Tech @JakeSmGaming]

Yeah but distribution is still the hard part. AI can do the work. It still can't get you customers.

[Layton Gott @Layton_Gott]

84% of businesses in the US have zero employees...

Just the owner.

I was SHOCKED it was that high.

Over 30 million of them, and they're growing faster than the ones that actually hire people.

The catch has always been that they stay small. Like 87% never even hit six figures, because one person can only do so much in a day.

That's changing now though.

The work that used to need a few hires you can now hand to AI and actually keep up.

The one person business was always the most common way to build. It just never had this much firepower behind it.

At that point the helicopter is the budget option

[Alessandro Palombo @thealepalombo]

In NYC you can afford Uber if you can afford a helicopter, essentially.

Meanwhile, in Lisbon from center to airport is almost always below 20$, 10% or less than NYC pricing.

Lisbon airport won't give you probably the best experience, but at least you won't pay 200$ to get there.

[Compounding Capital @Ausproperty95]

Hyperinflation is happening before your eyes.

I’m so excited.

[JakeSmith Tech @JakeSmGaming]

Ashamed lol. Or maybe they just did the maths.

[Times Radio @TimesRadio]

"If you move abroad for tax reasons, I don't know how you can look at yourself in the mirror."

Hugo Rifkind singles out at wealthy tax exiles, saying they should be “ashamed” of leaving the UK to pay less tax.

@aaliya_va Looks cool but I need to know how much of this is actual workflow and how much is tech demo magic.

[Ali @alinzm]

finally, my solo era has officially begun! 🚀
ViralDeck is now live, and i couldn’t be more excited and happy.

Even better: it already has paying customers and is generating revenue.

[JakeSmith Tech @JakeSmGaming]

@BigBrainBizness Different era. Bootstrapping the product is one thing. Distribution is the expensive part now.

[JakeSmith Tech @JakeSmGaming]

It's not writing. it's autocomplete doing theatre

[Pavel Larionov @pa1ar]

an essay on why "it's not X it's Y" language is so beloved by LLMs, written by @ErykSalvaggio

tldr: this construct makes an impression of thinking, so early AI detectors and human verifiers favored it, naturally LLMs adopted it and now it's everywhere

I keep seeing people say they want powerful tools, then they pick the one that lets them ship something before lunch.

Framer. Webflow feels like it needs 3 extra steps first

[Florent Ademaj @MaybeFlorent]

Framer vs Webflow but it’s an animation battle ⚔️🔥

No mercy.

Comment who wins for you 👇 @Framer or @Webflow?

You dont need people on your team anymore.

You need the output of that team - and AI agents can do that.

One $20 Claude subscription can act like:

> researcher
> writer
> editor
> assistant
> strategist

Most people still use AI like a simple chatbot.
But the real advantage is building systems of agents around you.

Bookmark & watch, then read the setup below...

[JakeSmith Tech @JakeSmGaming]

@_MaxBlade Exactly. I'd rather spend time shipping than lose my whole weekend fighting nginx and ssl.

[JakeSmith Tech @JakeSmGaming]

@priyankarocks @ActusDei @thefynprint Yep. Everyone wants the AI wrapper. For me the real story is power and chip supply. That's where it gets real fast.

[JakeSmith Tech @JakeSmGaming]

@nestersk Yeah no camera is the bit. Makes total sense

[JakeSmith Tech @JakeSmGaming]

I keep seeing polished screenshots treated like proof the thing works. Most of the time the boring stuff wins: clean inputs, tight workflows, fewer things to break.

[JakeSmith Tech @JakeSmGaming]

@meetedzenebubu Would help if there was a blog link instead of the same screenshot again
