Didn’t even realize this was included until reading the docs after. They spent about 30 seconds on plugins and 30 min trying and failing on random demos. Bi-directional context sharing is BIG TIME! Context is king (but expensive) and ChatGPT will have more than anywhere else

[Alexander @Adonalad]

The fact that we still have ChatGPT, work, and codex AND added dot is depressing

[Alexander @Adonalad]

@AutismCapital the problem is i don't want all my docs stored in openai

[Alexander @Adonalad]

dot would have been really cool if we hadn't already seen grok bot and muse.

[Alexander @Adonalad]

dottie the dot lmaoo

[Alexander @Adonalad]

insane to think about the fact that i am sitting here in the middle of the day waiting for a livestream to start vs combing to stack overflow to find an answer to a bug i have been working on for the entire first half of the day. When you take a step back we are really living in the best time ever to build cool shit

@marclou @stripe Love it

@tylertaewook This is actually huge

@nicksaraev Ai music will be (maybe already is) “better” but I think most humans will listen to other human-made music. But there is still a place for AI music (memes, throw away song for special occasion, etc).

People saying "I'd never give Muse/Meta access to my Gmail, Calendar, etc" is the 2026 version of "I'll never put my credit card on the internet."

[Chris Bakke @ChrisJBakke]

Meta will continue to be successful because they understand that a winning consumer AI strategy is “hey you can use AI to negotiate a good deal on a Peloton through Marketplace and btw we made a silly little AI character with a fluffy butt that you can look at on your new Meta Tamagotchi”

not “run our open weight model 6.7.1 on this new Chinese orchestration architecture oh and btw it might take your job and kill you good luck”

Initially the ai emails were too polished now they are trying too hard to make them imperfect 😂

@AutismCapital Idk how to feel tbh

[Ryo Lu @ryolu_]

efficiency, productivity, speed

we keep worshipping these words like they are what we live for

ship faster
merge more
manage more agents
compress every loop
remove every pause
turn every hour into output

but what is the point of endless production if there is no time left to think deeply?

not react
not optimize
not summarize
not clear the queue

think

to sit with a question long enough that your real intention starts to appear
to find the purpose underneath the motion
to ask whether the thing being accelerated should exist at all

ai could be a new canvas

a way to make strange things
personal things
impossible things
tools, worlds, poems, games, interfaces, films, languages, rituals
things that let more people touch the shape of their own imagination

but instead, so much of it is becoming slop factories

more content
more funnels
more tickets
more fake work pretending to be value

you can merge 2000 prs
you can manage 500 agents
you can wake up to dashboards proving that the machine kept moving while you slept

but what is the point if you only sleep 5 hours a day?

what is the point if you stop talking to other humans?
stop learning about the past?
stop playing?
stop wandering?
stop being surprised?

what is the point if your whole life becomes optimizing the system that is consuming you?

speed is not meaning
scale is not wisdom
automation is not freedom if it only makes everyone run faster

and where are we running?

toward what?

a world where every person becomes a manager of machines, and every machine produces more things no one had the time to truly want?

the danger is not that ai makes us lazy

the danger is that ai makes us endlessly busy

that it gives us infinite production before we have found intention
infinite execution before we have developed taste
infinite motion before we have learned how to be still

maybe the real frontier is not more speed

maybe it is discernment

knowing what not to make
knowing when to stop
knowing when the most productive thing is to sleep, read history, call a friend, play with a cat, walk without tracking it, or stare at the ceiling until the false urgency dissolves

tools should give us more life
not turn life into a tool

if ai is going to matter, it should not just help us produce more

it should help us become more human
more imaginative
more free

otherwise, it’s the same old factory
just without humans
