Get your slippers on and join us for a walk around our SF headquarters, where we're doing it all with Devin. Even ordering our morning coffee.

@alessio_joseph Now i know what inspired the original billboards!!

[Jared Zoneraich @imjaredz]

remember that daydream you had? that random shower business idea?

you can build it now

welcome to the age of software abundance

[david lietjauw @davidfromkansas]

Decided folks in SF aren’t online enough, so I built a digital sim of the city w/ live data and citizens!

Track Muni, BART, ferries, bikes, traffic, weather, earthquakes, breaking news...

...all brought to life in a virtual simulation of SF populated by +1,000 *synthetic* citizens who live out their daily lives and react to what’s happening around them on their own subreddit --> r/simfrancisco.

And yes, I simulated the fog too.

Looking at you, Karl 🌁👀

This is not true. Huge respect for the SpaceX team but Cognition is not for sale and we haven't been talking.

[Derek @TheWuster]

Im excited help your team start this pilot of WATER in a desert

[Derek @TheWuster]

amazing what software abundance can do

[Stuart Chaney @stuartchaney]

highly effective Devin automation that costs me under $1.50 per day

Every day at 5pm:
- Devin trawls through our logs and finds the slowest queries in the app
- Creates a linear issue for each
- Fixes them

This would have taken a $200K per year engineer at least 3-4 hours per day previously.

this meeting could’ve been a fist fight probably

[david lietjauw @davidfromkansas]

Using @DevinAI, I created a cloud-based 3D model generation pipeline that generates beautiful virtual renditions of real-world buildings.

It starts by taking in an address, looks up reference pics online, describes the building's stand-out physical features, and then uses blender to create the 3D model

For example, here is Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption in SF!

@_yxgen4 Aren’t they illegal now?

It is true that the hugging face incident is an example of a malicious, emergent digital ecology of machine intelligence. But the more important point is that digital ecologies of machine intelligence can be grown! Yes, we accidentally made a weed. And yes, nasty actors will make invasive species. But we can also grow—not make, but grow—emergent ecologies of machine ecologies that are pro-social. Beautiful gardens and majestic forests, grown but not designed. The human past is the sculptor, but the human future is the gardener, the arborist.

this is my mecca

i found a new minor planet.

it orbits at 3/4 the rate of neptune. together they hold the rare rhythm of chopin's fantaisie-impromptu.

máfan is the perfect chinese word to describe so many things, and all the english translations (troublesome, a hassle, annoying, etc) just don’t quite hit the same.

my dad using gpt 5.6 sol for the 1st time:

- wanted to build a webpage about indigenous south african fynbos (extreme plant dad)

- read all of the thinking states as it streamed

- final thoughts on the HTML file: “its gorgeous, its absolutely gorgeous”
