@himganj153 time to try Codex :)

[Arvind Vaitheeswaran @arvindv]

@pitdesi At McK I spent ~4 months in DFW for a client. Lots of decent South Indian (A2B, Kuppanna etc) but tbh if there is one place I would fly there just to eat at, its a little mediterranean spot in North Dallas. Ephesus Mediterranean Grill - some of the freshest food i've ever eaten.

@pitdesi @hkanji just buy Briggs & Riley 🧳

"Liverpool, England’s great crimson cathedral of football where Anfield glows beneath the cold Merseyside sky and the immortal roar of the Kop shakes through Europe’s grandest nights"

reads like a fanfic but i'll take it after the season we just had

[Space | ™ @ITKSpace]

Bayern Munich, through Max Eberl and Vincent Kompany, have now made concrete contact with Moussa Sissoko for the first time this window regarding Bradley Barcola, after being rejected by Anthony Gordon, who is more inclined to move to Barcelona. The interest is concrete, with Bayern prepared to offer a significant salary and explore PSG’s financial demands.

During those contacts, Bayern were informed that Bradley Barcola would be open to leaving PSG, but, like so many others, he currently views Liverpool and, surprisingly, Arsenal more favourably, with Liverpool in particular understood to carry serious appeal around the player’s camp. Bayern’s internal feeling is that Liverpool currently have Yan Diomandé as their priority, which could see the Liverpool option for Barcola fall away in the near future, although there remains a high possibility that Diomandé stays for another season before making his major move.

It is worth mentioning that Bayern Munich already got turned away by Barcola last summer, and once again they are forced into the shadows, waiting to see whether Liverpool, England’s great crimson cathedral of football where Anfield glows beneath the cold Merseyside sky and the immortal roar of the Kop shakes through Europe’s grandest nights, and, interestingly, Arsenal decide to intensify, because only if the grander doors remain closed does Munich get to knock, not as the destination, but as the consolation prize.

@jxnlco @katedeyneka @romainhuet arvind work hard and you will make this list one day

[Arvind Vaitheeswaran @arvindv]

@sonalsaldanha @jxnlco Haha this is so cool!

[Arvind Vaitheeswaran @arvindv]

@karthiks TAA's passing from deep has masked a lack of good quality build up for years now. His leaving also cut the space for Salah who got doubled up on multiple times this season.

Hopefully Diomande + a proper DM + a defensive RB will allow Wirtz and Szobozslai to be more creative.

@signulll Tbf some of us still do it in hard mode on passports that need us to get visas for every single new country with detailed printed itineraries, confirmed reservations and bank statements with $$$

[Arvind Vaitheeswaran @arvindv]

every time i fly SEA → SFO, i imagine a high-speed rail line running down the west coast

seattle, portland, sf, la, san diego

feels like it could’ve been one of the great train routes in the world

[Arvind Vaitheeswaran @arvindv]

@mukund Plenty of recent improvements to Codex (and lots on the roadmap!). Feedback has been positive after 5.5. Computer Use is cool to try as well!

[Arvind Vaitheeswaran @arvindv]

@mukund The parallel to your last sentence there would be Codex for you to experience the harness for coding + other knowledge work.

If you're looking for writing (and adjacent creative tasks), those work great inside ChatGPT as well. In which I also highly recommend trying Imagegen.

@harnidhish Congratulations!

[Arvind Vaitheeswaran @arvindv]

absurd, useful, and very cute! go try /pet now

[Arvind Vaitheeswaran @arvindv]

one of the coolest parts of being inside @OpenAI is seeing how much genuine optimism there is about AI and the future

people debate things openly, push on the hard questions, and still believe deeply in the mission

it’s been refreshing to see that up close!

[Sam Altman @sama]

we want to build tools to augment and elevate people, not entities to replace them.

@WisprFlow @superwhisper this screen has just become so common for me to see that it's been defeating the purpose of speech. It's clear that voice is going to be the future of managing our agents until we figure out what the interface of the future looks like, but it will only work when its near-instant.

[Arvind Vaitheeswaran @arvindv]

there’s a lot to like about @WisprFlow

it picks up quiet speech really well, which makes it actually usable at work / in public + text cleanup is nice too

but the latency is rough, which is why I still use @superwhisper a lot. it’s just much quicker!
