[Jessica Lessin @Jessicalessin]

I’ve just had someone apply for a job by sending me Claude Code artifacts. Brave brave new world. I dig it.

🚨some personal news: i am moving to the job many of you assumed i already had🚨

i am now covering openai for @theinformation! for the next few months i'll be writing a lot about the ipo, but i'm interested longer term in safety, policy and ai culture, inside and outside of sf.

[Jessica Lessin @Jessicalessin]

There is a lot one could critique about how OpenAI operates. But this story reminded me how impressive it is that a company at its scale, growth rate and complexity can pivot so fast.

@jeremymbarr Overall, I don't think CBS has handled this well, obviously, but I do think that is a good statement.

[Jessica Lessin @Jessicalessin]

I am still waiting for amazing AI shopping experiences...

This headline cracks me up. Poor Barry is just “media mogul.”

[Jessica Lessin @Jessicalessin]

Mind-numbing AI task of the day. My otter wasn't working so I have an audio file and need a transcript. Gemini, Claude and OpenAI are giving me problems. I swear this was easy in the olden days. What should I use?

[Jessica Lessin @Jessicalessin]

The thing that strikes me about OpenAI's chief revenue officer Denise Dresser is that even OpenAI's competitors praise her. That's rare.

I’ve been jealous of @dakincampbell’s awesome coverage of finance for years. Thrilled he has joined our finance team at @theinformation! Get ready for some awesome coverage.

[dakin campbell @dakincampbell]

📢 I've joined The Information to cover the money behind the AI boom.

I'm interested in how banks, funds, and pensions are funneling capital into the chips and projects powering AI and who ends up holding the risk when deals go wrong.

Tips or story ideas (no pitches), please get in touch.
