OH: “i’ve switched to Kimi from claude for a bunch of work. it’s just so much more fun because it just does the thing instead of lecturing you”

Woke lobotomized models are the enemy of American competitiveness.

Eu particularmente acho que o subsidio da China é do governo (para treinar a LLM) e nos EUA é o dinheiro privado. Mas os 2 são subsidios mas não vejo isso como um problema. O preço da venda do token só existe pq alguém subsidiou a fase de aprendizado da LLM, seja governo ou privado.

[David Sacks @DavidSacks]

This is concerning. For the first time, a Chinese model Kimi K3 has taken #1 on the Frontend Code Arena and is scoring at or near the frontier on other benchmarks.

Meanwhile America is tying itself in knots: politicians and bureaucrats are banning new data centers, piling on state regulations, and pushing for new federal agencies to pre-approve frontier models.

This is how you lose the AI race. The rest of the world won’t play by our rules if we bog ourselves down. Permissionless innovation is how America won the internet and became the technological envy of the world. We can do it again with AI -- while addressing risks in a targeted way -- or we’ll watch our lead evaporate.

@rafaquint Mas Rafael, existe um certo subsidio da China, concorda?

Today we share the worldview behind our mission.

Human values don't average out. Local knowledge can't be centralized. The good future has many AIs, raised in different places, shaped by the people they serve, disagreeing with each other the way we do.

Cursor’s founder on why AI makes the next engineer more valuable, not less.

The New York Times spends ~$150M-$200M a year on software R&D, even though most people do not think of it as a software company.

Professional software engineering is still far from solved because building a new codebase is not the same as safely migrating an existing system like Rippling’s 30M-line codebase, with years of logic, dependencies, and customer workflows behind it.

Cursor’s 20-person support team handling millions of daily users clearly shows that AI leverage for small teams is real.

But the scope of software work is still vast, so the ROI of adding the next strong engineer is higher, not lower.

We've usually stayed away from model comparisons but 5.6 vs Fable is a unique situation

We've never had a case where the team is so completely convinced on which one is better

Here's the timeline of our experience with it

- We test early versions of 5.6 for a couple of weeks and have a great time, it feels like a step change improvement, enabling new workflows
- We get to try Fable and don't think it's not as good, I personally would take this experience with a grain of salt, there tends to be a bias when trying a new model when you already like another
- Fable and 5.6 are taken away because of the regulatory issues
- Our team is literally depressed that 5.6 is gone, we are looking for anything that could even partly replace it
- Fable comes back, and here's where it gets interesting, you would think Fable would be enough, but no, the team is still depressed that 5.6 isn't available
- Then 5.6 comes back and it's immediately clear that it's just way better than Fable

This situation was unique in that it was the closest we've ever gotten to having an unbiased comparison of two models

Four of AI's most confusing terms explained:

An agent is just a model, harnessed, in an environment.

[Race 🕊️ @multiplanet1]

A Tesla executive once described a board meeting where Elon was told by three separate advisors that Tesla would not survive the next quarter.

The money was gone. The Model 3 production line was failing. Media was running daily stories about Tesla's imminent bankruptcy.

One board member suggested exploring acquisition offers. Another suggested a controlled bankruptcy that would protect the brand. The third suggested Elon step down as CEO and let someone "more experienced" navigate the crisis.

Elon listened to all three without interrupting. Then he stood up, walked to the whiteboard, and started drawing the production line changes he wanted implemented by Friday. Not next month. Friday.

The executive said nobody in the room spoke. Not because they agreed with him. Because they realized he hadn't heard a word of what they said. Not because he was ignoring them. Because the possibility of Tesla dying simply did not exist in his reality. It wasn't optimism. It was something closer to a glitch in how his brain processes outcomes. Failure was not a category his mind could file anything under.

Tesla survived that quarter. And the quarter after. And the one after that.

I've been using my /writing-great-skills skill for a lot more than writing skills:

- AGENTS.md
- Docs for agents
- Specs and tickets
- AFK workflow prompts

Turns out that structure + leading words + pruning is useful for any text agents read

MASSIVE Hermes Agent update over the last few days

Totally changes the way I use Hermes

Here's 6 new features you need to start using immediately (video demoing them below):

1. Mixture of agents: send your prompt to a team of different models. The team sends back all of their responses to an orchestrator model who synthesizes a final answer. Gives much better results than just sending a prompt to 1 model

2. /learn: use the new built in /learn skill to have Hermes automatically create new skills. You can either give a prompt after /learn or put in a URL. I like pasting in URLs of tweets with helpful tips after /learn and Hermes will automatically turn it into a skill

3. /journey: See every skill and memory Hermes has created for you on a really nice timeline/chart. Great for seeing how your agent has learned and improved over time

4. Self improvement cost savings: Hermes now uses cheaper models to do it's self improvement including memory creation and skill creation. These types of activities happen in the background of almost every prompt, so this results in TONS of cost savings over time

5. Vibe coding improvements: Hermes desktop is now a full vibe coding tool. You can see diffs, make commits, and even open up PRs directly from the desktop interface. Makes it WAYYY nicer to vibe code with

6. Fable 5 is now built in. Fable 5. Obviously Fable is incredibly expensive, so only use this new profile for incredibly complex tasks.

Excellent updates that have significantly improved the experience. Video demoing all the updates below!
