Was super inspiring to chat with @louszbd while she is town for @aiDotEngineer.

I promise you definitely don’t want to miss her at AIE!

[Lou @louszbd]

Made it to SF! The love for GLM-5.2 has been incredible. We are bringing team out for the AI Engineer World’s Fair, where we’ll be sharing some of our recent work. It’s our first time showing up in the Valley. So excited! And thanks to @swyx and @aiDotEngineer for having us. Lemme know what would you want to hear us talk about:)

[Ethan Sutin @EthanSutin]

happy was able to see you!

@aiDotEngineer means a lot to me too, and so many others. Not only the densest signal conference, but also the best place to make new friends for life.

The community is so lucky to have @swyx; he is truly gifted at connecting people.

[Alex Volkov @ AI Engineer @altryne]

I'm back home, exhausted but very emotionally fulfilled.

@aiDotEngineer means a lot to me, it means seeing folks I've met a few years ago now, and chatting about what's new in their life and how they are using AI.

It means meeting new people and adding them to that circle, it means great talks, in the hallway and on stage, it means loud parties where everyone yells (can Americans not raised the decibel levels at every event with music? ha)

It also means, @thursdai_pod coverage live from the show, recently live from the floor!

This last one, I got to also give a talk, which I'm hoping would go online at some point, and hang with many folks at a worldcup game (a cool ass perk, you really ought-to submit a CFP and come talk next time), see a bunch of humanoid robots (one clad in @wandb gear!), miss the puppies, but see @swyx sing in the music corner and walk the hall, being blown away by the sheer size of it all. This time there were tons of costumers, Orcs, bugs etc, it was wonderful!

Also, I am always humble to meet folks who tune into every ThursdAI, and ask them for how I can make the show better. If you've come up to me, gave me a high five and gave me feedback on the show, thank you! You are the reason I'm doing this for over 3.5 years now!

Crazy times! Please check out our live coverage if you haven't (in quoted tweet)

@niw @griffin_stewie But make phone usable for humans?

5/ I am near certain this LIFECORDING trend happen: via Meta acquisition of Limitless pendant, Amazon of the Bee, and OpenAI iO (ive) and a flood of entrants…

The “arms dealers” will win

And they will see a demand shock when some of the giants place unusual large big orders….

@amazon is acquiring @Globalstar to integrate their low Earth orbit satellites into our constellation. This combination will rapidly accelerate our plans to add direct-to-device capabilities into our satellite network to support calling, texting, data, and more.

[Steve Korshakov @Ex3NDR]

looking for new people to fill the role to become my right hand: “software factory engineer”. the role is to write no code directly but build a machinery that produces code that is needed.

So excited to see old and new friends at ClawCon. Thanks to the great @msg for letting Bee supply some 🦞 for all the clawers tonight!

[michael s galpert @msg]

out of the 522 ppl who signed up to attend @openclaw ClawCon in SF this week. 406!! of them want to present something:

71 want to present a skill
100 want to present their bot
235 want to present something else

I'm thinking that maybe we have people just set up shop with their laptop science fair style but would like to have some structure to this.

Maybe have break outs based on topics. Open to suggestions.
