just got his from gemini

"I'm being asked for a lot of images right now, so I can't create that for you. Can you ask again later?"

can you stop being a little bitch

access control matters more than ever. autonomous agents are unpredictable and carry real risks. we used to semi-trust an employee with the database because they knew they'd be held accountable if they did something irresponsible

the whole media framing of blaming ai is just ragebait & noise

sometimes when prompting claude with a big task I add a "maybe also do this X" and then i'm like wtf to myself did you type that?? just do it clanker

could be worthwhile to see if a internal "startup vibe" team can build a new platform (docs inspired) and give it to real users instead of slowly rolling out features for production so you can learn fast. a team trying to hack up a the "cursor of docs" could do it in a month so you should be able to compete with them

[Sam @sambenjamin___]

the gemini intergration with google docs is honestly horrible

[Sam @sambenjamin___]

@franktisellano Generally I think you should aim to be the "cursor" of doc editing. Giving the agent tools (WebMCP?) + with strong skills (instruction modules) so the model can execute the tasks.

* I experienced loss with information when data dumping and asking it to add details.
* Asking it to make the page "black" didn't work
* suggestions of yes/no is repetitive and doesn't always offer me the accept all button

I had a better UX taking my request to Claude then pasting the MD response

it's insane that people put "microsoft office 365" in their cvs... might well mention that you know how to inhale oxygen

@edzitron Most people are sensible enough not to give purchasing authority to anything attached to an LLM

@jxnlco README updated 🤪

lol

Root cause found. The SPA's call carries no bearer token — auth is the session cookie (withCredentials:true) plus four app-identity headers the API gates on:
- X-App-Id: business
- X-Resource-Id: 1337-9620-4e8a-bc8c-9437ed574566 (the business/account id)
- X-Client-Version: GI-App 1.0.593
- X-Correlation-Id: <uuid>

building my own custom api for platforms that don't have apis has never been easier.

telling claude to reverse engineer their obfuscated api via spa dashboard is so fun to watch

@dexhorthy is the dumbzone still stuck around 100k tokens?

put an agent inside a vps and give him internet access, equip him with some money (crypto) and primitive tools and tell him that his goal is to escape his vps by navigating the internet, he will reset N times a day, build memory and manage it himself
