you can't bolt a chatbot onto a factory floor. a factory costs $100K+ a day to run. when spindle three drifts at 2am nobody needs a summarization tool. content AI is done. physical AI barely exists.

@realtalishaw @lovable How about a battle royale tournament

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@martinsit This is soo cool! Im really excited to see when this turns into 3D CAD. Impatiently waiting for this to turn into text prompt mode too... :)

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@antonosika 😂😂 ❤️

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@antonosika, they say diversification drives economic growth.

As an early investor in @lovable, I’m thrilled to see it action https://t.co/HJN6O9qJFc

Btw, my bra size and cup size still can’t agree… guess I’m diversifying there too! 😂

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@antonosika one of the principles of economic growth over time is diversifications. As one of the first investors in @lovable, I’m happy to see this in action…

Btw my bra size didn’t match my cup size…

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

This is mind boggling

[Peter Yang @petergyang]

Ok, going to vibe code again tonight.

This time, I'll try to build a zombie survival first-person shooter in blocky style with Cursor + Sonnet 3.7 + @superwhisper.

Maybe too ambitious, but we'll see.

Follow along in this thread 🧵

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@jimclydego @nickbaumann_ @cursor_ai This is soo true. Haven’t found a simple set up. It seems that many devs have the same problems.

Have you come across any docs or repos worth synthesizing?

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@Sumanth_077 I tried running this locally. It’s kind of clunky. Anyone got good results?

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@ElevenLabsDevs Finally!!

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@lovable Very helpful, minor update. Waiting to see multi tenant version control / colab - hopefully soon 🚀

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@dr_cintas Super cool hack!

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@alexcooldev Founder and angel here. It really comes down to your future projections. If your idea is to run the app as is with that YoY revenue growth, investors would value in the range of 500k in cash using DCF comparables.

I’d keep it as a side hustle or double down and raise vc cash.

[Simon Olson @SimonOlsn]

@klarnaseb @antonosika @lovable Ni borde. IDE magic. Vi testade på @lablabai . Bygger 2 MVP apps / engineer / day.

[Anton Osika @antonosika]

As a founder, I always felt building products takes too long. So I started Lovable to fix this.

Been building up to this moment for the last 12 months – thrilled to launch lovable (the product) into open access.

Why people say it's the best (and first?) AI fullstack engineer:
> creates beautiful UIs & now backend (auth, database operations, stripe, AI features) with @supabase
> testimonials from CTOs and designers alike are consistently = 🤯🤯
> it's reliable & consistently ranks 1st in benchmarks

Link to try on my profile, we have a launch day promo...
