Four human skills that matter more than ever:
→ Critical thinking
→ First-principles thinking
→ Judgment
→ Taste
And you already have them.

The teams seeing the biggest wins from AI are completely changing how they work, not speeding up what they already do. What steps can you delete, what handoffs go away, what can an agent just own end to end. Great to see Salesforce go this deep. Shoutout to Srini, @Benioff & team.

Authoring code by hand HAS GONE AWAY.

Engineering module structure and architecture has not.

[Mike Gill @AgentGill]

Makes sense to me

@DavidSacks Seems like good marketing hype to me

[Guillermo Rauch @rauchg]

Almost every SaaS app inside Vercel has now been replaced with a generated app or agent interface, deployed on Vercel.

Support, sales, marketing, PM, HR, dataviz, even design and video workflows. It’s shocking.

The SaaSpocalypse is both understated and overstated. Over because the key systems of record and storage are still there (Salesforce, Snowflake, etc.)

Understated because the software we are generating is more beautiful, personalized, and crucially, fits our business problems better.

We struggled for years to represent the health of a Vercel customer properly inside Salesforce. Too much data (trillions of consumption data points), the ontology of Vercel was a mismatch to the built-in assumptions, and the resulting UI was bizarre. We generated what we needed instead. When you don’t need a UI, you just ask an agent with natural language.

We’ve also been moving off legacy systems with poor, slow, outdated, and inconsistent APIs, as well as just dropping abstraction down to more traditional databases. UI is a function 𝑓 of data (always has been), and that 𝑓 is increasingly becoming the LLM.

UK AI is very much alive

[andy @b1rdmania]

15 weird London AI companies you've probably never heard of

London's AI scene isn't just chatbots and SaaS.

Some genuinely strange stuff happening.

@PrimaMente – building "foundation models for the brain" to study Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.

Hologen – frontier medical AI spinout tied to UCL/King's. Eric Schmidt involved. https://t.co/WrZrKnrXKk

@baseimmune – AI-designed vaccines targeting rapidly mutating viruses.

@RecursionPharma / @valence_ai – AI drug discovery platform combining chemistry, biology and machine learning.

@CausalyAI – AI that reads scientific papers and maps biomedical knowledge graphs.

Fractile – building new AI chip architecture. https://t.co/V8KXnSXrVC

@mindgard – "red teaming" AI models to find vulnerabilities.

@Limbic_ai – mental health triage AI used in NHS services.

@LindusHealth – clinical trials run with AI infrastructure.

Anima Health – AI triage platform for healthcare providers. https://t.co/BoSMZj6kkd

AUAR – robots that build buildings. AI for automated construction. https://t.co/2eYWADsFDN

@testudoglobal – insurance for the AI economy.

Isomorphic Labs – DeepMind spinout doing AI drug discovery. https://t.co/gpdTVLaEoF

BenevolentAI – one of the earliest AI drug discovery companies. https://t.co/pFSeZRnqS7

London AI ecosystem is weirder than people think.

Still mapping more.

Comment any i've missed so far.

AI agents are the new coworkers. But who's making sure they play by the rules?
Yesterday at Workato's AI Research Lab in SF, we dove into the security challenge of the decade: governing AI that acts autonomously.

We covered:
✅ Why AI agents need different security than traditional software
✅ How to govern systems that make their own decisions
✅ Building trust when agents work alongside humans
✅ How MCP changes the security game
✅ What the future of AI governance looks like

Big thanks to everyone who joined us for brilliant conversation, great food, and even better company!

@unclebobmartin New take on double 🤛

[Uncle Bob Martin @unclebobmartin]

I'm keeping two Claude windows open. One making changes to the source code. The other helping me to plan future changes. This uses my time better since I spend a lot less time waiting for Claude to finish.

The two Claudes are in two different directories, both have git repos of the project. The planning directory has rules that prevent source code changes. Only planning is allowed. I manually pull and push changes between the two.

[Boris Cherny @bcherny]

You can now customize your Claude Code keybindings!

/keybindings to get started

[Mike Gill @AgentGill]

Interesting

[Vercel Developers @vercel_dev]

You can now use Claude Code Max with AI Gateway.

Use your existing subscription with Claude Code, and fallback to other providers when you reach your plan's limits or for better reliability.

Solid move

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

We’re partnering with the UK's Department for Science, Innovation and Technology to build an AI assistant for https://t.co/e3sn3vm9wg.

It will offer tailored advice to help British people navigate government services.

How long before Anthropic shut down claude setup-token for Clawdbot? Yesterday was a fast return to sluggish Claude code - oh they have

@airesearch12 💯 @ Spec-driven development
It's the limit of imperative -> declarative transition, basically being declarative entirely.

Relatedly my mind was recently blown by https://t.co/pTfOfWwcW1 , extreme and early but inspiring example.
