This update is a moment I've been looking forward to sharing for a while now. Hubilo is now a Series B startup with $125 million in funding! #hubilove

@livjenkss exactly, only what matters

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@Kavya_learns and still opening 5 apps to check if my order shipped

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@Polymarket finally, a way to lose money while i sleep

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@vibecodeapp when anyone can build an app in a sentence, the scarce thing isn't the app. it's a spot on your screen where it's actually useful.

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@viticci the interesting part isn't the codex widget. it's that the biggest ai app on earth decided the answer belongs on the home screen, not in the chat.

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@jasonoliver people don't want a chauffeur for every errand, just for the ones they hate driving to

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@a16z meanwhile i still open 6 apps to check if my flight moved. agents burning 5x the tokens and none of them are on my home screen

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@garimaptweets or you just need a widget on your home screen

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@shl hence we all gettin too salty

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

we’ll soon get tired of ai doing everything for us, instinct, muse, agents are going to make us crave doing things ourselves again

the best ai won’t remove you from the loop it’ll make you dangerously good at it

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@heysatya_ this looks cool, this could be a widget on your screen too!

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@startupoppa consumer ai shouldn't need a big occasion to be useful. the interesting question is what it can quietly take off your plate on an ordinary tuesday.

@deedydas Interesting how much the conversation around WhatsApp has shifted toward monetization.

Could just be timing, but it does seem more prominent since Kunal Shah came on board.

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@andrewchen We don't have a verb yet because we're still in the browser era of AI.

The verb probably emerges when AI becomes invisible.

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@naval true :)

[Vaibhav Jain @houseofvjs]

@andrewchen Everyone asks if AI can replace humans.

A better question might be:
Can the output be objectively evaluated?
