Forward 💫 🔭 All about @msty_ai.

The Mac rack “The Mac Hive” powered by @msty_ai Nexus at Singapore Tech Week. The private and local AI is here and here to stay.

Everyone is talking about high token costs these days.

With Nexus' smart router; you can dynamically route traffic to local or lower cost models depending on what the request is. 💪

[Msty AI @msty_ai]

AI shouldn’t force you to choose between flexibility and control.

Msty Nexus gives you one gateway to run AI where it makes sense, across on-device, on-prem, and cloud models.

Route intelligently. Govern centrally. Keep control.

@ashokgelal Also, big company decision makers are, guess where?

On LinkedIn, not X. 😆

[Adam Miedema @ARMiedema]

@fymkev @araseb_ Because it's not X. Which is what it's not supposed to be. 😅

[Adam Miedema @ARMiedema]

I’ve dealt with bogus bug bounty reports for years... usually some minor bug or non-issue dressed up as a serious vulnerability, usually with pseudo-threatening language attached. I've just ignored as spam.

More recently though, I’ve seen the same thing at the app level.. weak findings framed as critical security issues, wrapped in disclosure deadlines and “saving the world” language. 🙄

It creates a lot of noise for maintainers and makes it harder to give legitimate security research the attention it deserves.

"Just ship it" wasn't meant to be this way...

[voxium @v0xium]

I am done with this shit. It is over. The state of engineering right now is horrible. It has been half a month since I started a new role at a big company. Nobody knows anything here. The specs, code, tests, PRDs, tickets, resolution of those tickets, reports, etc., everything is made by Claude Code. Nobody on my team likes this. They are being forced to ship as much as they can. I have heard multiple times from higher management that pushing code is not a bottleneck, so why are we slow? People are working 12 to 13 hours a day just to press enter. Nobody is reading anything. Humans in corporate are doing nothing on their own. Everyone, literally everyone, from an L1 to an L7 engineer here is doing the same thing. Talk to Claude. There is no sense of victory. Nobody is resolving bugs. In reality, nobody is thinking anymore. Everything is done by LLMs. It is so soul-sucking. I would not mind it, to be honest, if we were at least given the time to check out the code and see what is going where. But no, the goal is to just ship. No matter what happens.

We’re excited to be part of Cloud & AI Infrastructure Asia 2026 as a Gold & Workshop Sponsor! 🙌

Looking forward to connecting with everyone in Singapore and sharing how Msty AI is helping businesses put AI to work with greater control, privacy, and governance, while maintaining the freedom to choose the models and infrastructure that work best for them.

Enterprise AI is moving fast, and we’re excited to be part of the conversation around turning that innovation into practical, meaningful business value.

If you’re attending, come say hi! We’d love to meet you. 👋

@ardent__dev GLM 5.3 running on my @msty_ai Nexus mac studio cluster. 🔥

@ashokgelal I'm here for the Jev. ☕️

[Adam Miedema @ARMiedema]

@LeoBuilds_ Just like humans 😅

[Adam Miedema @ARMiedema]

@alexndrxc Probably across the board.. then there’s claude, which lately seems determined not to answer a question directly. Feels like I’m talking to the Riddler half the time.

[Adam Miedema @ARMiedema]

I've seen people rave about Codex and computer use, and others say it feels like it just makes everything slower.

I'm starting to lean toward the latter.

Codex feels almost lazier in a way, taking more steps to get to the same result and sucking up a lot more tokens in the process.

[ag @ashokgelal]

You should vibe code and maintain them on your own. Never pay for anything that’s been done by pros with years of experience of maintaining them. Who cares about a polished app anymore that looks great. I mean I would rather eat ramen at home everyday and rather than enjoying a great chef meal every now and then.

[Adam Miedema @ARMiedema]

@leodev 👀 @msty_ai Studio 🔥

[Adam Miedema @ARMiedema]

I met probably 20+ "AI leaders" at a recent AI convention that also didn't know what exactly they or their employees were sending to big LLM.

We aim to education with @msty_ai but this issue has already gone critically far.

Another reason why we are proud of what we're doing with Msty Nexus, so that you can better govern what you cannot see.

Every major AI platform ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, Grok has safety and privacy settings that most users have never opened. Settings that control whether your conversations train the AI. Settings that delete your history. Settings that control what the AI remembers about you. Settings that limit what it can do on your behalf.

A cybersecurity researcher who's spent 3 years auditing AI platforms told his coworker:

"You use ChatGPT for 2 hours a day. You've pasted client contracts, employee reviews, financial projections, medical questions, and your company's strategic roadmap into a text box owned by a company that on your current settings uses your conversations to train the next version of the model. You've never opened Settings. You've never toggled off training data. You've never reviewed what Memory has stored about you. You've never deleted a conversation that contained your client's confidential information. And you've never checked whether your AI platform has different privacy rules than the one your coworker uses."

His coworker said: "I thought it was like Google. I type a question, I get an answer, nobody reads it."

"Google shows you results from the internet. ChatGPT learns from what you type into it. Those are fundamentally different relationships and most of the 400 million people using AI every week don't understand the difference."

He showed him 9 things the opt-out toggles, the memory controls, the data deletion options, the platform differences, the things you should never paste, and the AI agent permissions most users grant without reading that transform AI from an uncontrolled data exposure into a tool you actually control.

"AI safety isn't about the AI doing something dangerous. It's about you doing something you don't realize feeding sensitive data into a system whose data practices you've never checked, through settings you've never configured, on a platform whose rules you've never read."

Here are the 9 things most AI users have never configured 🧵

How true... SaaS invokes penny pinching; even through you'll spend more on Claude. And... on coffee during a month for that matter. 🤦‍♂️

[Kyle Gawley @kylegawley]

Everyone will pay $200/mo for Claude to avoid paying $19/mo for a SaaS.
