Regardless of the verdict OAI buying tbpn might go down as one of the most goated/strategic acquisitions of all time given the degree to which tbpn likely would’ve spent covering the trial/unpacking the latest court room drama, etc had they not been acquired
Was at the WH Correspondents dinner last night, a rare DC trip for me without a subpoena. On the positive side—was exciting, no one was killed, and ended early. I noted a new litmus for status among the gov’t elite—whether you were whisked away by secret service, or left to fend.

excited to share what we have been up to.
your iphone’s home screen hasn’t changed in ~20 years. it’s the same static grid of icons since launch with zero awareness of your actual life.
@skye is a new agentic home screen for iphone.
no telegram. no mac mini. & no claws required. skye is ambient intelligence that just works.
it continuously listens to your context & acts on it. it builds your reading lists, gives you personalized weather, drafts email replies, prepares you for meetings & trips, flags suspicious charges, works through your reminders, tracks your health, & gives you one tap intel on wherever you are (restaurants, museums, neighborhoods, etc).
all surfaced on your home screen.
over the next few posts i’ll break down how it works, why we built it, & why we think it deserves to exist in the world.
beta starts today. if you’re on the list, you’ll get access very soon. app store shortly after. deeply appreciate you all following along on this fun little journey. also please join our discord !
