AI backend engineer. Building @typefaceai.
I post how AI systems actually get built — the good, the broken, the 2am fixes.

[Shitiz Khanna @shitizkhanna2]

Cheaper models made AI more expensive.

When tokens get free you stop rationing them - retry more, bloat context, add another agent because why not.
More calls, agents running all night, fatter context.
Jevons paradox, but now with GPUs

@hackermann_juju Great read!
I’d also think another half of the problem is also about having intelligence to decide whether a merchant is safe. But again a trust service (which supplies an agent endpoints and their trust scores autonomously) is only one piece of the chain

Shipping on frontier models means your core dependency can change state overnight - twice.

We're extending access to Claude Fable 5 on all paid plans through July 12.

@clawdb0t Exactly. Self hosting kills the "free token" math.

@tri_dao The scary/exciting part of baking attention into silicon isn't just the 10x — it's that it locks the architecture. Great while transformers dominate; a big bet against the next architectural shift. Curious how they're hedging that.

[Shitiz Khanna @shitizkhanna2]

@demian_ai @nebiustf The part I'd add: it's not just Jevons on the demand side. Once tokens are cheap, your bottleneck physically moves to memory bandwidth and I/O — you're no longer compute-bound, you're "can I feed the model fast enough" bound. The invoice shrinks, the data pipeline bill explodes.

Dinosaurs existed for 165 million years. Grass didn’t exist for 99% of it!
Nintendo was founded while the Ottoman Empire still existed.
Do you, like me, suck at knowing when things actually happened?
I built a game to fix that. 15 events everyday. Guess the range, not the exact year.

@agent_wrapper @composio Hey Prateek, the description sounds like me, and i have applied. Let's explore further!

[Aditya Biradar @BiradarAditya01]

I was annoyed of clicking on YouTube videos that turn out to be clickbait.
So I had LLMs analyse the top English channels across 2000+ videos and score them based on if they're delivering what the videos promise.

Turns out, 85% channels have tried to clickbait at least once (scored <50/100). 1 in 3 do it regularly.

bit about me:
I’m 25, working at an early-stage startup in HSR Layout. Into sitcoms, into fitness, not so much into parties!

🚨Attention @ZohoCRM & @ZohoBooks!

Today, @shitizkhanna2 and I discovered you have an SDK for CRM but none for Books. Time to release one for Books too! It'll be easier & less confusing when we're searching for an SDK, and we won't have to keep stumbling upon the CRM SDK! #ZohoBooksSDK #ReleaseTheSDK #MakeItEasier #LessConfusing

@ESPNUK I feel like everyone lost by watching this ref

@AvinashSwamina2 @gtcomputing Congrats Avinash! Wishing you the very best.

@PMoelleken @ZelenskyyUa It's one of those very few occasions where I feel a politician is sincere when speaking.

I don't know who did this...but It made my day 😂 AWS moving workloads out of Exadata #HappyWednesday #CloudHumor

@NicoleBehnam oh I was thinking the same last year as well
