@APompliano @JensenHuang @ClementDelangue @nvidia @cfosilvia Yes! Hey Anthony, great to be in the same industry yet again (fb/crypto/ai), let's DM to chat more?

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

Very excited to be in the armies of open weights models in the west.

[Jensen Huang @JensenHuang]

For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter.

AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country.

Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty.

The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models.

When you are in the right environment. It’s just time to focus. No bs, pure signal.

Nice to see the space move here from @jack. Although I've been using a solid product called Puffo that does this since 4+ months ago.
It seems in AI era pain-points are so clear that ideas are converging. The true differentiator still lies in execution now.

[jack @jack]

bringing it all together into one surface

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

@jack And look at the differences on their UX -- hint (very little)

In agentic coding era, it's fair to say that one should at least invest 50% of their coding time in building the tooling/harness to improve their productivity while building stuffs.

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

Truly proud of how far the team has came along!

Such fun to sit down with @HarryStebbings and discuss the future of open/closed and specialised vs generalised intelligence.

The future isn’t in duopoly. It’s in millions of companies building special products. They must own their intelligence.

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

@LouiseGiam 🔥🔥🔥 Such pleasure working with you!

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

@LouiseGiam @XMoney That's wild

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

Congrats to announcement! Many familiar faces.

[River AI @river_ai_inc]

We are incredibly excited to announce River AI. Our mission is to create personal AI that is owned and shaped by you.

Today’s best AIs are controlled by a few large corporations. We are building the alternative: a new, personal stack for AI that works entirely for you, shares your values, and operates on your terms.

@garrytan Inspiring tweet that is rare these days! Thanks Garry!

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

Really happy to see their GA. This was a great use of voice API.

[Gopuff @gopuff]

Meet Go. Gopuff's AI shopping genius, co-developed with SpaceXAI. Just say what you need. It's already on its way.

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

Google is pushing hard with their cards now. chrome address bar search -> AI -> left panel copilot. Google is turning chrome into cursor-agent like.

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

@Randxie29 Spill the beans? :)

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

@lqiao @FireworksAI_HQ What a run! Congrats Lin and team!

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

@rronak_ @MichaelElabd @QuantumArjun Congratulations on the milestone! @rronak_ and co!

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

@ryenduu @xai What a run, congrats Ryan!

[Boyan @edwinboyan]

@astnkennedy Totally feel the same way. It's like comparing to ancient humans, we drive everywhere and our muscles just shrink unless we hit the gym to fake those old-school conditions.
Same with our brains — we used to keep them razor sharp using all our tools and systems. Now we seriously need a mental gym too or we'll lose that core strength.
