@edzitron I think you're ignoring the heavy lifting "We're only in the early innings..." does in corpspeak.

[Rob Schmit @robschmit]

@lennysan Also, great list! The Goal is a personal favorite.

[Rob Schmit @robschmit]

@lennysan For product managers, learning how to negotiate with various internal and external stakeholders and even themselves on what to build, why you're building it in the face of sales, customer requests, etc. I get how some folks may already have the tools to manage that, esp. seniors.

@edzitron Their SpaceX holding is probably more relevant to that than Anthropic.

@zachweinberg I'd add a 4 - mRNA personalized therapies for cancer.

@danveloper Was wondering when we would get the "mainframe to PC" leap for LLMs. Going to come faster than folks expect.

@KeithWMattox Howdy, you mean @SchmittNYC, not me.

[Rob Schmit @robschmit]

@badlogicgames I definitely find a lot of value in CLI integrations. I feel like Code Mode from Cloudflare probably becomes the major pattern for enterprises shortly. That said, MCP Apps are really great for my workflow when I'm working on content. Being able to edit in chat is a better way.

@simonw Now that pelicans on bicycles are likely saturated, I humbly submit "Render a diving hawk on a beanie in Blender for my children to use in Roblox" as a benchmark.

[Rob Schmit @robschmit]

@elithrar Yeah, Context7 but for generally accepted architectural patterns would be a good thing; I can get great contextual library info, but not "here is how these two things work and work together". Writing terraform of any kind with specific providers is painful.

[Rob Schmit @robschmit]

@jessfraz Overkill? Definitely, but when the agent has to reason over 3 warehouses and 2 spreadsheets to get that answer depending on the question? Just works.

[Rob Schmit @robschmit]

@jessfraz I wrote a CLI tool to get around the nonsense of nested https://t.co/5kB2A5kCmc files polluting my contexts. Threw a vector search on it so it can assemble the context semantically too. Now I can just ask it "How many x did we sell in y?", agent codes, get answer.

@OfficialLoganK I'm super interested! Loving AI studio build so far

@karpathy I typically start in agent mode, then move to tab/manual for the fine detail work. Mostly I'll use agent mode to write the boilerplate functions and params, then implement logic myself - saves me from researching apis etc., and I've seen fairly high fidelity.

[Rob Schmit @robschmit]

@GergelyOrosz We’ve been playing with Glean and Agentspace at a few places - and they’re both good products, but the fundamental issue in most companies is no one knows where anything is, which makes most of these dead on arrival.

[Rob Schmit @robschmit]

@elithrar Man, I've had my head down too long. I had no idea Workers supported python now... Time to finally try out that MCP experiment I've been wanting to.

[Rob Schmit @robschmit]

@karpathy @simonw I’ve been calling it Guide Coding or Sherpa Coding in informal discussions.
