We're adding support for AGENTS.md to Claude Code.
Starting today in version 2.1.277, if there is no CLAUDE.md in a folder, Claude will check for and use AGENTS.md.
You can toggle this behavior in /config.
I cant help but think sometimes that AI ruined coding
Remember the feeling of locking in for hours and hours. The context of the entire codebase all loaded in to your brain. Typing code letter by letter. Bug after bug after bug until it finally worked?
Exactly zero new engineers will ever feel that level of flow
I wouldn't trade this for the world, but I do miss those days
Pregnancy tests draw a misleading, somewhat arbitrary, binary between a state of being pregnant and not being pregnant. You can be kind of pregnant, a little bit pregnant, or almost pregnant, or maybe pregnant, and still test positive for pregnancy. Pregnancy tests, particularly at-home urine tests, capture a moment in time at which an embryo has implanted and is interfacing with the uterus in some way. โWe define how we understand the beginning of pregnancy based on this snapshot, but such a freeze-frame contains limited information,โ Apoorva Tadepalli writes.

Last month I wrote about how we can build a positive and safe future for everyone: https://t.co/eoLGVY8yad
Every lab has the responsibility and incentive to move at the pace required to train its models safely, and the ability to take its own actions to ensure that happens.
The reality is:
- People won't want to use agents that are misaligned with them and that don't do what they ask, so labs have a strong natural incentive to make their models more aligned.
There is a lot of debate about slowing progress on capabilities until alignment catches up. My view is that trust and alignment are quickly becoming the most important capabilities that will differentiate agents and models. Any lab that doesn't focus on alignment will fall behind.
- Labs face significant liability if their models cause harm, so they have a strong incentive to prevent this as well.
Meta delayed shipping Muse for several months to focus on safety and security. We didn't call for everyone else to do this before we would. We just did it as part of our day-to-day work because it was clearly the right thing for people and for us. I'm proud of the security foundations we've built.
- Engaging independent evaluators and advisors is industry best practice. MSL already does this today in several areas because it helps produce better work. Other labs can just do this too. In general, it would be helpful for there to be a larger and more diverse ecosystem of evaluators.
- Committing the significant majority of compute towards serving people rather than racing towards recursive self-improvement is one of the best ways to ensure we develop this technology safely. Meta has made this commitment and other labs can do this as well.
I believe the key to building a positive future for everyone is maintaining the right balance of power. This is within our power to do.
last week in ai: a researcher quit anthropic warning AI could kill us all by the end of the decade, openai solved a century-old math problem with 10,000 agents in 88 hours, apple dropped a $2k foldable, and chatgpt learned to draw from your sketches. quiet week.
my CLAUDE.md started as project docs. it's now a rap sheet. every rule in there is a crime claude committed. "never invent API endpoints" is doing a life sentence.
Watching faith-tech blow up this year
AI that saves a pastor 10 hours of admin so they can actually sit with someone whoโs hurting?
Thatโs not โreplacing ministry.โ
Thatโs stewarding time.
Tools serve people.
jensen huang declared AGI has arrived at the gpt-6 astra launch. the guy who sells the shovels says the gold rush is real. forgive me for wanting a second opinion from someone not selling shovels.
