Can AI autonomously redesign my entire website? I used 100% agentic coding and my orchestrated AI workflow to see if reality matches the hype https://t.co/WEedxsFC9Q

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

@ryanflorence @kenwheeler yeah it is, but i wouldn't consider it prompt engineering like is common today. it's more like a trigger and maybe he's referencing that it kicks off some orchestrated workflow?

that's the way i took it, but i'd really love to know exactly what they mean.

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

@ryanflorence @kenwheeler i'm guessing /loop? i saw jared say something similar: https://t.co/o8cyTHlIcw

i still need a high-level view of this workflow thought because there's obviously more to it than that.

[Jarred Sumner @jarredsumner]

@luqven They don’t compete - I use them together. For example

/loop 30m get all the tests to pass. For each review comment, run a triage workflow that writes fixes, and runs 2 adversarial reviews per fix, then applies and pushes

25x engineer right here

[Wise @trikcode]

Before AI, I had 5 unfinished projects.
After AI, I have 128 unfinished projects.

@BobEUnlimited agentic AI, which i think is going to drive most of the productivity increases, really only started gaining traction at the beginning of this year.

@ThePrimeagen now abstract those 15 separate prompts to be reusable and accept a <PROMPT> parameter. ez

@DavidSacks +266,000 part-time jobs
-79,000 full-time jobs

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

@KobeissiLetter it’s not a strong jobs market though?

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

+266k part-time jobs, -79k full-time jobs.

Unpopular opinion: just because companies can ship features faster w/ AI doesn't mean they should.

Slow down.

Use the saved to actually test the feature: go through the edge cases, put it in front of real humans, refine it, and actually consider whether it's even a good idea.

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

@OrigBoldRoyalty @MarioNawfal okay so this was your point. and you’re right i don’t get it. it sounds stupid though

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

@OrigBoldRoyalty @MarioNawfal got it, american builders don’t cut corners and i’m just dumb. thanks for the insight!

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

@OrigBoldRoyalty @MarioNawfal what about our building that just randomly fell down in florida?

[Matthew Prince 🌥 @eastdakota]

There a LOT of performative AI right now. Inside your org it wastes tokens/money. In biz dev it’s a distraction. Focus purely on ROI.

[Matt Pocock @mattpocockuk]

Long skills are such a red flag to me

- Hard to audit (and therefore, trust)
- Hard to edit (more text, harder to maintain)
- Expensive to run (more text, more tokens)

The shorter the skill, the better IMO

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

@Mayhem4Markets i'm pretty sure VCX is not impacted by this, they own their shares directly.

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

very useful. i did this manually a few times today already, makes sense as a skill.

[Matt Pocock @mattpocockuk]

/handoff might be my new favourite skill

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

@WAKINGAMERICA13 @elonmusk are you extracting and refining your own gasoline? what a dumb comment

[Matt Pocock @mattpocockuk]

The more I replace plans with prototypes, the better the outputs

Who'd have thought that low fidelity prototypes were better than walls of spec

Oh yeah, the entire industry for 20 years

Stop going against decades of knowledge because someone in SF shipped it as a 'mode'

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

if this datacenter happens @Jason might never get to ski in utah again

[Rich Snapp @snapwich]

this seems like a terrible idea. what happened to all the proposals for small nuclear reactors? this giant datacenter is planning to run on natural gas emitting methane and other greenhouse gases.

we literally just had the warmest winter in history and our lake is mostly gone…

🇺🇸🇨🇦 Canadian shark Kevin O'Leary just got a 40k-acre data center approved in Utah.

That's 62 square miles! 2.5x the size of Manhattan!

Residents overwhelmingly showed up to oppose it. Officials approved anyway.

Remember, elections have consequences.
