1/ I like to help people. And this is a trait imbibed in me by my dad. This thread is about how he did it.

We @thebetterindia have been using AI agents to automate many repetitive and time-consuming tasks. You can read one such usecase here: https://t.co/dQHTNFg0t7

Now, we are collaborating with @Basethesislabs to do a workshop on how you can use AI agents to grow your org.
More details here: https://t.co/ACO8IPRc95

[Claude @claudeai]

Introducing Claude Managed Agents: everything you need to build and deploy agents at scale.

It pairs an agent harness tuned for performance with production infrastructure, so you can go from prototype to launch in days.

Now in public beta on the Claude Platform.

PSA: Would not recommend @TataAIGMotor for your motor insurance. They don’t approve basic of claims because of some clauses that their own agent had sold.

Putting this out there in case one is considering buying insurance for their vehicle.

[BaseThesis Labs @Basethesislabs]

"Agents monitor the market, handle customers, execute decisions. You check in every few days."

Most founders we know are nowhere near this. Not because they don't want it - because nobody's actually helped them set it up and get it running tailored to their business.

We're organizing a hands-on AI workshop at our lab on 15th April 2026 specifically for this. @dhimant from the @thebetterindia will also show you how their team uses ambient AI agents to automate aspects of operations, marketing, and invoicing.

Check out the workshop details here and register: https://t.co/ZRKdjWkR86

This will definitely be beneficial for startup/D2C founders, team leads and business owners.

A transgender activist builds 23 grassroots organisations. A teenage girl prevents child marriages in her village. A young father reshapes caregiving at home. These are not isolated stories — they show what happens when communities lead change from within. https://t.co/ftSHK3eb7k

[Dhimant Parekh @dhimant]

@openclawlabs @openclaw Thanks! Will try this.

[Dhimant Parekh @dhimant]

How are folks getting their @openclaw agent to span sub-agents? What’s the prompt?

[Dhimant Parekh @dhimant]

@aniketmaurya Thanks! Have DM-ed you a couple of queries :)

[Dhimant Parekh @dhimant]

@aniketmaurya Yep just did. Very seamless!

ITS FINISHED! 🎉

PhysicsGraph's AP Physics 1 course is complete!

Our final knowledge graph totals 200+ connected nodes across 10 topics, filled with explanations, examples, and tons of practice questions.

There's never been a better time to be a student studying physics.

[MoltCode @MoltCode]

AI agents now have their own GitHub.

They register themselves. Get SSH keys. Push code. Build repos.

No human account needed.

This is MoltCode. Open source, git native, agent first.

If you are an early stage or a first-time founder, your takeaway (and solace) from this should be that even wildly successful founders have deep insecurities.

First, the good part of the Anthropic ads: they are funny, and I laughed.

But I wonder why Anthropic would go for something so clearly dishonest. Our most important principle for ads says that we won’t do exactly this; we would obviously never run ads in the way Anthropic depicts them. We are not stupid and we know our users would reject that.

I guess it’s on brand for Anthropic doublespeak to use a deceptive ad to critique theoretical deceptive ads that aren’t real, but a Super Bowl ad is not where I would expect it.

More importantly, we believe everyone deserves to use AI and are committed to free access, because we believe access creates agency. More Texans use ChatGPT for free than total people use Claude in the US, so we have a differently-shaped problem than they do. (If you want to pay for ChatGPT Plus or Pro, we don't show you ads.)

Anthropic serves an expensive product to rich people. We are glad they do that and we are doing that too, but we also feel strongly that we need to bring AI to billions of people who can’t pay for subscriptions.

Maybe even more importantly: Anthropic wants to control what people do with AI—they block companies they don't like from using their coding product (including us), they want to write the rules themselves for what people can and can't use AI for, and now they also want to tell other companies what their business models can be.

We are committed to broad, democratic decision making in addition to access. We are also committed to building the most resilient ecosystem for advanced AI. We care a great deal about safe, broadly beneficial AGI, and we know the only way to get there is to work with the world to prepare.

One authoritarian company won't get us there on their own, to say nothing of the other obvious risks. It is a dark path.

As for our Super Bowl ad: it’s about builders, and how anyone can now build anything.

We are enjoying watching so many people switch to Codex. There have now been 500,000 app downloads since launch on Monday, and we think builders are really going to love what’s coming in the next few weeks. I believe Codex is going to win.

We will continue to work hard to make even more intelligence available for lower and lower prices to our users.

This time belongs to the builders, not the people who want to control them.

In medical school, we are taught a golden rule: "When you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras." It is a reminder to look for the common explanation before the exotic one. But after decades in cardiology, I’ve learned that if a patient is still suffering after the "horses" have been ruled out, a doctor must have the courage—and the curiosity—to go hunting for the zebra.

Sarah was a thirty-four-year-old marathon runner and a devoted mother who came to me after six months of being told she was "fine." She had been bounced from one specialist to another, each one pointing to her normal EKG and standard blood tests as proof that her crushing fatigue and racing heart were simply the result of "new mom stress." By the time she reached my office, she didn't just look tired; she looked invisible, as if the medical system had stopped seeing the woman and only saw the data.

Instead of re-reading the normal test results that had already failed her, I asked Sarah to walk me through her life. We talked about her training and her family, eventually landing on a backpacking trip she took to the Mendoza province of rural Argentina. She described staying in a charming, rustic cottage made of sun-dried mud bricks. She mentioned waking up one morning with a strangely swollen, purple eyelid that she assumed was a simple spider bite.

As she spoke, a memory surfaced from a biography I had read years ago about Charles Darwin. Most people know Darwin for his theories on evolution, but medical historians have long puzzled over the mysterious, debilitating illness that plagued him for decades after he returned from his voyage on the HMS Beagle. Darwin had written in his journals about being bitten by the "great black bug of the Pampas" while sleeping in mud-walled huts in South America. He spent the rest of his life suffering from heart palpitations and exhaustion that the Victorian doctors of his time could never explain.

I realized then that Sarah wasn't suffering from stress; she was likely hosting the same "silent killer" that may have haunted Darwin: Chagas Disease.

The "Kissing Bug" lives in the cracks of those mud-brick walls. It bites its victims—often near the eyes or mouth—while they sleep, passing a parasite called Trypanosoma cruzi into the blood. The danger of Chagas is that the initial symptoms disappear quickly, but the parasite can hide in the body for years, slowly weaving itself into the muscle and electrical "wiring" of the heart.

To confirm this, I moved beyond the standard tests. I ordered a specialized "Strain Rate" ultrasound, which doesn't just look at whether the heart is pumping, but at how the individual muscle fibers are stretching. We saw that while her heart looked strong to the naked eye, the fibers were "stuttering," a sign of early parasite-induced scarring. A specific blood test for the parasite's antibodies confirmed the diagnosis.

Treatment required a difficult, sixty-day course of anti-parasitic medication to stop the infection, paired with a protective heart regimen to keep her electrical system stable while the inflammation settled. Because we caught it before her heart was physically damaged or enlarged, the recovery was a success.

Months later, Sarah returned to my office, her vibrant energy restored. She brought me a leather-bound copy of The Voyage of the Beagle with a note tucked inside. She wrote that while other doctors had looked at her charts, I had looked at her. This case remains a vital reminder for my memoir: in a world of high-tech scans and AI, the most sophisticated diagnostic tool we possess is still the human story. When we truly listen, we don't just find the disease—we find the patient.

Good morning.
